Implement Problem
Q: How do I use MindSpore to implement multi-scale training?
A: During multi-scale training, when different shape are used to call Cell objects, different graphs are automatically built and called based on different shape. Note that multi-scale training supports only the non-data sink mode and does not support the data offloading mode. For details, see the multi-scale training of the yolov3.
Q: If a tensor whose requirements_grad is set to False is converted into numpy for processing and then converted into tensor, will the computational graph and backward propagation be affected?
A: In PyNative mode, if numpy is used for computation, gradient transfer will be interrupted. In the scenario where requirements_grad is set to False, if the backward propagation of tensor is not transferred to other parameters, there is no impact. If requirements_grad is set to True, there is an impact.
Q: How do I modify the weight and bias of the fully-connected layer like torch.nn.functional.linear()?
A: The nn.Dense interface is similar to torch.nn.functional.linear(). nn.Dense can specify the initial values of weight and bias. Subsequent changes are automatically updated by the optimizer. During the training, you do not need to change the values of the two parameters.
Q: What is the function of the .meta file generated after the model is saved using MindSpore? Can the .meta file be used to import the graph structure?
A: The .meta file is a built graph structure. However, this structure cannot be directly imported currently. If you do not know the graph structure, you still need to use the MindIR file to import the network.
Q: Can the yolov4-tiny-3l.weights model file be directly converted into a MindSpore model?
A: No. You need to convert the parameters trained by other frameworks into the MindSpore format, and then convert the model file into a MindSpore model.
Q: Why an error is reported when MindSpore is used to set model.train?
model.train(1, dataset, callbacks=LossMonitor(1), dataset_sink_mode=True)
model.train(1, dataset, callbacks=LossMonitor(1), dataset_sink_mode=False)
A: If the offloading mode has been set, it cannot be set to non-offloading mode. This is a restriction on the running mechanism.
Q: What should I pay attention to when using MindSpore to train a model in the eval phase? Can the network and parameters be loaded directly? Does the optimizer need to be used in the model?
A: It mainly depends on what is required in the eval phase. For example, the output of the eval network of the image classification task is the probability value of each class, and the acc is computed with the corresponding label.
In most cases, the training network and parameters can be directly reused. Note that the inference mode needs to be set.
net.set_train(False)
The optimizer is not required in the eval phase. However, if the model.eval API of MindSpore needs to be used, the loss function needs to be configured. For example:
# Define a model.
model = Model(net, loss_fn=loss, metrics={'top_1_accuracy', 'top_5_accuracy'})
# Evaluate the model.
res = model.eval(dataset)
Q: How do I use param_group in SGD to reduce the learning rate?
A: To change the value according to epoch, use Dynamic LR and set step_per_epoch to step_size. To change the value according to step, set step_per_epoch to 1. You can also use LearningRateSchedule.
Q: How do I modify parameters (such as the dropout value) on MindSpore?
A: When building a network, use if self.training: x = dropput(x). When reasoning, set network.set_train(mode_false) before execution to disable the dropout function. During training, set network.set_train(mode_false) to True to enable the dropout function.
Q: How do I view the number of model parameters?
A: You can load the checkpoint to count the parameter number. Variables in the momentum and optimizer may be counted, so you need to filter them out. You can refer to the following APIs to collect the number of network parameters:
def count_params(net):
"""Count number of parameters in the network
Args:
net (mindspore.nn.Cell): Mindspore network instance
Returns:
total_params (int): Total number of trainable params
"""
total_params = 0
for param in net.trainable_params():
total_params += np.prod(param.shape)
return total_params
Q: How do I monitor the loss during training and save the training parameters when the loss is the lowest?
A: You can customize a callback.For details, see the writing method of ModelCheckpoint. In addition, the logic for determining loss is added.
class EarlyStop(Callback):
def __init__(self):
self.loss = None
def step_end(self, run_context):
loss = ****(get current loss)
if (self.loss == None or loss < self.loss):
self.loss = loss
# do save ckpt
Q: How do I obtain the expected feature map when nn.Conv2d is used?
A: For details about how to derive the Conv2d shape, click here Change pad_mode of Conv2d to same. Alternatively, you can calculate the pad based on the Conv2d shape derivation formula to keep the shape unchanged. Generally, the pad is (kernel_size-1)//2.
Q: Can MindSpore be used to customize a loss function that can return multiple values?
A: After customizing the loss function, you need to customize TrainOneStepCell. The number of sens for implementing gradient calculation is the same as the number of network outputs. For details, see the following:
net = Net()
loss_fn = MyLoss()
loss_with_net = MyWithLossCell(net, loss_fn)
train_net = MyTrainOneStepCell(loss_with_net, optim)
model = Model(net=train_net, loss_fn=None, optimizer=None)
Q: How does MindSpore implement the early stopping function?
A: You can customize the callback method to implement the early stopping function.
Example: When the loss value decreases to a certain value, the training stops.
class EarlyStop(Callback):
def __init__(self, control_loss=1):
super(EarlyStep, self).__init__()
self._control_loss = control_loss
def step_end(self, run_context):
cb_params = run_context.original_args()
loss = cb_params.net_outputs
if loss.asnumpy() < self._control_loss:
# Stop training.
run_context._stop_requested = True
stop_cb = EarlyStop(control_loss=1)
model.train(epoch_size, ds_train, callbacks=[stop_cb])
Q: After a model is trained, how do I save the model output in text or npy format?
A: The network output is Tensor. You need to use the asnumpy() method to convert the Tensor to NumPy and then save the data. For details, see the following:
out = net(x)
np.save("output.npy", out.asnumpy())
Q: Can the vgg16 model be loaded and transferred on a GPU using the Hub?
A: Yes, but you need to manually modify the following two arguments:
# Add the **kwargs argument as follows:
def vgg16(num_classes=1000, args=None, phase="train", **kwargs):
# Add the **kwargs argument as follows:
net = Vgg(cfg['16'], num_classes=num_classes, args=args, batch_norm=args.batch_norm, phase=phase, **kwargs)
Q: How to obtain middle-layer features of a VGG model?
A: Obtaining the middle-layer features of a network is not closely related to the specific framework. For the vgg model defined in torchvison, the features field can be used to obtain the middle-layer features. The vgg source code of torchvison is as follows:
class VGG(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, features, num_classes=1000, init_weights=True):
super(VGG, self).__init__()
self.features = features
self.avgpool = nn.AdaptiveAvgPool2d((7, 7))
The vgg16 defined in ModelZoo of MindSpore can be obtained through the layers field as follows:
network = vgg16()
print(network.layers)
Q: When MindSpore is used for model training, there are four input parameters for CTCLoss: inputs, labels_indices, labels_values, and sequence_length. How do I use CTCLoss for model training?
A: The dataset received by the defined model.train API can consist of multiple pieces of data, for example, (data1, data2, data3, …). Therefore, the dataset can contain inputs, labels_indices, labels_values, and sequence_length information. You only need to define the dataset in the corresponding format and transfer it to model.train. For details, see Data Processing API.
Q: How do I load the PyTorch weight to MindSpore during model transfer?
A: First, enter the PTH file of PyTorch. Take ResNet-18 as an example. The network structure of MindSpore is the same as that of PyTorch. After transferring, the file can be directly loaded to the network. Only BN and Conv2D are used during loading. If the network names of MindSpore and PyTorch at other layers are different, change the names to the same.
Q: What are the available recommendation or text generation networks or models provided by MindSpore?
A: Currently, recommendation models such as Wide & Deep, DeepFM, and NCF are under development. In the natural language processing (NLP) field, Bert_NEZHA is available and models such as MASS are under development. You can rebuild the network into a text generation network based on the scenario requirements. Please stay tuned for updates on the MindSpore Model Zoo.
Q: How do I use MindSpore to fit functions such as \(f(x)=a \times sin(x)+b\)?
A: The following is based on the official MindSpore linear fitting case.
# The fitting function is: f(x)=2*sin(x)+3.
import numpy as np
from mindspore import dataset as ds
from mindspore.common.initializer import Normal
from mindspore import nn, Model, context
from mindspore.train.callback import LossMonitor
context.set_context(mode=context.GRAPH_MODE, device_target="CPU")
def get_data(num, w=2.0, b=3.0):
# f(x)=w * sin(x) + b
# f(x)=2 * sin(x) +3
for i in range(num):
x = np.random.uniform(-np.pi, np.pi)
noise = np.random.normal(0, 1)
y = w * np.sin(x) + b + noise
yield np.array([np.sin(x)]).astype(np.float32), np.array([y]).astype(np.float32)
def create_dataset(num_data, batch_size=16, repeat_size=1):
input_data = ds.GeneratorDataset(list(get_data(num_data)), column_names=['data','label'])
input_data = input_data.batch(batch_size)
input_data = input_data.repeat(repeat_size)
return input_data
class LinearNet(nn.Cell):
def __init__(self):
super(LinearNet, self).__init__()
self.fc = nn.Dense(1, 1, Normal(0.02), Normal(0.02))
def construct(self, x):
x = self.fc(x)
return x
if __name__ == "__main__":
num_data = 1600
batch_size = 16
repeat_size = 1
lr = 0.005
momentum = 0.9
net = LinearNet()
net_loss = nn.loss.MSELoss()
opt = nn.Momentum(net.trainable_params(), lr, momentum)
model = Model(net, net_loss, opt)
ds_train = create_dataset(num_data, batch_size=batch_size, repeat_size=repeat_size)
model.train(1, ds_train, callbacks=LossMonitor(), dataset_sink_mode=False)
print(net.trainable_params()[0], "\n%s" % net.trainable_params()[1])
Q: How do I use MindSpore to fit quadratic functions such as \(f(x)=ax^2+bx+c\)?
A: The following code is referenced from the official MindSpore tutorial code.
Modify the following items to fit \(f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c\):
Dataset generation.
Network fitting.
Optimizer.
The following explains detailed information about the modification:
# The selected optimizer does not support CPUs. Therefore, the GPU computing platform is used for training. You need to install MindSpore of the GPU version.
context.set_context(mode=context.GRAPH_MODE, device_target="GPU")
# Assume that the function to be fitted is f(x)=2x^2+3x+4. Modify the data generation function as follows:
def get_data(num, a=2.0, b=3.0 ,c = 4):
for i in range(num):
x = np.random.uniform(-10.0, 10.0)
noise = np.random.normal(0, 1)
# For details about how to generate the value of y, see the to-be-fitted objective function ax^2+bx+c.
y = x * x * a + x * b + c + noise
# When fitting a*x^2 + b*x +c, a and b are weight parameters, and c is the offset parameter bias. The training data corresponding to the two weights is x^2 and x, respectively. Therefore, the dataset generation mode is changed as follows:
yield np.array([x*x, x]).astype(np.float32), np.array([y]).astype(np.float32)
def create_dataset(num_data, batch_size=16, repeat_size=1):
input_data = ds.GeneratorDataset(list(get_data(num_data)), column_names=['data','label'])
input_data = input_data.batch(batch_size)
input_data = input_data.repeat(repeat_size)
return input_data
class LinearNet(nn.Cell):
def __init__(self):
super(LinearNet, self).__init__()
# Two training parameters are input for the full connection function. Therefore, the input value is changed to 2. The first Normal(0.02) automatically allocates random weights to the two input parameters, and the second Normal is the random bias.
self.fc = nn.Dense(2, 1, Normal(0.02), Normal(0.02))
def construct(self, x):
x = self.fc(x)
return x
if __name__ == "__main__":
num_data = 1600
batch_size = 16
repeat_size = 1
lr = 0.005
momentum = 0.9
net = LinearNet()
net_loss = nn.loss.MSELoss()
# RMSProp optimizer with better effect is selected for quadratic function fitting. Currently, Ascend and GPU computing platforms are supported.
opt = nn.RMSProp(net.trainable_params(), learning_rate=0.1)
model = Model(net, net_loss, opt)
ds_train = create_dataset(num_data, batch_size=batch_size, repeat_size=repeat_size)
model.train(1, ds_train, callbacks=LossMonitor(), dataset_sink_mode=False)
print(net.trainable_params()[0], "\n%s" % net.trainable_params()[1])
Q: How do I execute a single ut case in mindspore/tests?
A: ut cases are usually based on the MindSpore package of the debug version, which is not provided on the official website. You can run sh build.sh to compile the source code and then run the pytest command. The compilation in debug mode does not depend on the backend. Run the sh build.sh -t on command. For details about how to execute cases, see the tests/runtest.sh script.
Q: For Ascend users, how to get more detailed logs when the run task error is reported?
A: Use the msnpureport tool to set the on-device log level. The tool is stored in /usr/local/Ascend/driver/tools/msnpureport.
- Global: /usr/local/Ascend/driver/tools/msnpureport -g info
- Module-level: /usr/local/Ascend/driver/tools/msnpureport -m SLOG:error
- Event-level: /usr/local/Ascend/driver/tools/msnpureport -e disable/enable
- Multi-device ID-level: /usr/local/Ascend/driver/tools/msnpureport -d 1 -g warning
Assume that the value range of deviceID is [0, 7], and devices 0–3 and devices 4–7 are on the same OS. Devices 0–3 share the same log configuration file and devices 4–7 share the same configuration file. In this way, changing the log level of any device (for example device 0) will change that of other devices (for example devices 1–3). This rule also applies to devices 4–7.
After the driver package is installed (assuming that the installation path is /usr/local/HiAI and the execution file msnpureport.exe is in the C:\ProgramFiles\Huawei\Ascend\Driver\tools\ directory on Windows), run the command in the /home/shihangbo/ directory to export logs on the device to the current directory and store logs in a folder named after the timestamp.
Q: How do I change hyperparameters for calculating loss values during neural network training?
A: Sorry, this function is not available yet. You can find the optimal hyperparameters by training, redefining an optimizer, and then training.
Q: What should I do when error error while loading shared libraries: libge_compiler.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory prompts during application running?
A: While installing Ascend 310 AI Processor software packages，the CANN package should install the full-featured toolkit version instead of the nnrt version.
Q: Why does context.set_ps_context(enable_ps=True) in model_zoo/official/cv/resnet/train.py in the MindSpore code have to be set before init?
A: In MindSpore Ascend mode, if init is called first, then all processes will be allocated cards, but in parameter server training mode, the server does not need to allocate cards, then the worker and server will use the same card, resulting in an error: HCCL dependent tsd is not open.
Q: What should I do if the memory continues to increase when resnet50 training is being performed on the CPU ARM platform?
A: When performing resnet50 training on the CPU ARM, some operators are implemented based on the oneDNN library, and the oneDNN library is based on the libgomp library to achieve multi-threaded parallelism. Currently, libgomp has multiple parallel domain configurations. The number of threads is different and the memory usage continues to increase. The continuous growth of memory can be controlled by configuring a uniform number of threads globally. For comprehensive performance considerations, it is recommended to configure a unified configuration to 1/4 of the number of physical cores, such as export OMP_NUM_THREADS=32.
Q: Why report an error that the stream exceeds the limit when executing the model on the Ascend platform？
A: Stream represents an operation queue. Tasks on the same stream are executed in sequence, and different streams can be executed in parallel. Various operations in the network generate tasks and are assigned to streams to control the concurrent mode of task execution. Ascend platform has a limit on the number of tasks on the same stream, and tasks that exceed the limit will be assigned to new streams. The multiple parallel methods of MindSpore will also assign new streams, such as parallel communication operators. Therefore, when the number of assigned streams exceeds the resource limit of the Ascend platform, an error will be reported. Reference solution:
Reduce the size of the network model
Reduce the use of communication operators in the network
Reduce conditional control statements in the network
Q: On the Ascend platform, if an error “Ascend error occurred, error message:” is reported and followed by an error code, such as “E40011”, how to find the cause of the error code?
A: When “Ascend error occurred, error message:” appears, it indicates that a module of Ascend CANN is abnormal and the error code is reported.
At this time, there is an error message after the error code. If you need a more detailed possible cause and solution for this exception, please refer to the “error code troubleshooting” section of the corresponding Ascend version document, such as CANN Community 5.0.3 alpha 002 (training) Error Code troubleshooting.
Q: When the third-party component gensim is used to train the NLP network, the error “ValueError” may be reported. What can I do?
A: The following error information is displayed:

Solutions:
Method 1: Reinstall the Numpy and Gensim and run the following commands: pip uninstall gensim numpy -y && pip install numpy==1.18.5 gensim
Method 2: If the problem persists, delete the cache file of the wheel installation package and then perform method 1. (The cache directory of the wheel installation package is ~/.cache/pip/wheels)
Network Compilation Problems
Q: What can I do if an error “Create python object `<class ‘mindspore.common.tensor.Tensor’>` failed, only support create Cell or Primitive object.” is reported?
A: Currently in graph mode, the construct function (or the function decorated by the @ms_function decorator) only supports the construction of Cell and Primitive object. The construction of Tensor is not supported, that is, the syntax x = Tensor(args...) is not supported.
If it is a constant tensor, please define it in the function __init__. If not, you can use the @constexpr decorator to modify the function and generate the Tensor in the function.
Please see the usage of @constexpr in https://www.mindspore.cn/docs/api/en/master/api_python/ops/mindspore.ops.constexpr.html.
The constant Tensor used on the network can be used as a network attribute and defined in init, that is, self.x = Tensor(args...). Then the constant can be used in the construct function (or the function decorated by the @ms_function decorator).
In the following example, Tensor of shape = (3, 4), dtype = int64 is generated by @constexpr.
@constexpr
def generate_tensor():
return Tensor(np.ones((3, 4).astype(np.int64)))
Q: What can I do if an error “‘self.xx’ should be defined in the class ‘init’ function.” is reported?
A: If you want to assign for a class member such as self.xx in the function construct, self.xx must have been defined to a Parameter type firstly while the other types are not supported. But the local variable xx is not under the regulation.
Q: What can I do if an error “This comparator ‘AnyValue’ is not supported. For statement ‘is’, only support compare with ‘None’, ‘False’ or ‘True’” is reported?
A: For the syntax is or is not, currently MindSpore only supports comparisons with True, False and None. Other types, such as strings, are not supported.
Q: What can I do if an error “MindSpore does not support comparison with operators more than one now, ops size =2” is reported?
A: For comparison statements, MindSpore supports at most one operator. Please modify your code. For example, you can use 1 < x and x < 3 to take the place of 1 < x < 3.
Q: What can I do if an error “TypeError: The function construct need 1 positional argument and 0 default argument, but provided 2” is reported?
A: When you call the instance of a network, the function construct will be executed. And the program will check the number of parameters required by the function construct and the number of parameters actually given. If they are not equal, the above exception will be thrown.
Please check your code to make sure they are equal.
Q: What can I do if an error “Type Join Failed” or “Shape Join Failed” is reported?
A: In the inference stage of front-end compilation, the abstract types of nodes, including type and shape, will be inferred. Common abstract types include AbstractScalar, AbstractTensor, AbstractFunction, AbstractTuple, AbstractList, etc. In some scenarios, such as multi-branch scenarios, the abstract types of the return values of different branches will be joined to infer the abstract type of the returned result. If these abstract types do not match, or type/shape are inconsistent, the above exception will be thrown.
When an error similar to “Type Join Failed: dtype1 = Float32, dtype2 = Float16” appears, it means that the data types are inconsistent, resulting in an exception when joining abstract. According to the provided data types and code line, the error can be quickly located. In addition, the specific abstract information and node information are provided in the error message. You can view the MindIR information through the analyze_fail.dat file to locate and solve the problem. For specific introduction of MindIR, please refer to MindSpore IR (MindIR). The code sample is as follows:
import numpy as np
import mindspore as ms
import mindspore.ops as ops
from mindspore import nn, Tensor, context
context.set_context(mode=context.GRAPH_MODE)
class Net(nn.Cell):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.relu = ops.ReLU()
self.cast = ops.Cast()
def construct(self, x, a, b):
if a > b:
return self.relu(x)
else:
return self.cast(self.relu(x), ms.float16)
input_x = Tensor(np.random.rand(2, 3, 4, 5).astype(np.float32))
input_a = Tensor(2, ms.float32)
input_b = Tensor(6, ms.float32)
net = Net()
out_me = net(input_x, input_a, input_b)
The result is as follows:
TypeError: The return values of different branches do not match. Type Join Failed: dtype1 = Float32, dtype2 = Float16. The abstract type of the return value of the current branch is AbstractTensor(shape: (2, 3, 4, 5), element: AbstractScalar(Type: Float16, Value: AnyValue, Shape: NoShape), value_ptr: 0x32ed00e0, value: AnyValue), and that of the previous branch is AbstractTensor(shape: (2, 3, 4, 5), element: AbstractScalar(Type: Float32, Value: AnyValue, Shape: NoShape), value_ptr: 0x32ed00e0, value: AnyValue). Please check the node construct.4:[CNode]5{[0]: [CNode]6}, true branch: ✓construct.2, false branch: ✗construct.3. trace:
In file test_join.py(14)/ if a > b:/
The function call stack (See file 'analyze_fail.dat' for more details):
# 0 In file test_join.py(14)
if a > b:
When an error similar to “Shape Join Failed: shape1 = (2, 3, 4, 5), shape2 = ()” appears, it means that the shapes are inconsistent, resulting in an exception when joining abstract. The code sample is as follows:

def construct(self, x, a, b):
if a > b:
return self.relu(x)
else:
return self.reducesum(x)
input_x = Tensor(np.random.rand(2, 3, 4, 5).astype(np.float32))
input_a = Tensor(2, ms.float32)
input_b = Tensor(6, ms.float32)
net = Net()
out = net(input_x, input_a, input_b)
The result is as follows:
ValueError: The return values of different branches do not match. Shape Join Failed: shape1 = (2, 3, 4, 5), shape2 = (). The abstract type of the return value of the current branch is AbstractTensor(shape: (), element: AbstractScalar(Type: Float32, Value: AnyValue, Shape: NoShape), value_ptr: 0x239b5120, value: AnyValue), and that of the previous branch is AbstractTensor(shape: (2, 3, 4, 5), element: AbstractScalar(Type: Float32, Value: AnyValue, Shape: NoShape), value_ptr: 0x239b5120, value: AnyValue).

# 0 In file test_join1.py(14)
if a > b:
When an error similar to “Type Join Failed: abstract type AbstractTensor can not join with AbstractTuple” appears, it means that the two abstract types are mismatched. You need to review the code and modify it based on the provided code line and other error information.
Q: What can I do if an error “The params of function ‘bprop’ of Primitive or Cell requires the forward inputs as well as the ‘out’ and ‘dout” is reported?
A: The inputs of user-defined back propagation function bprop should contain all the inputs of the forward pass, out and dout. The example is as follow:
class BpropUserDefinedNet(nn.Cell):
def __init__(self):
super(BpropUserDefinedNet, self).__init__()
self.zeros_like = P.ZerosLike()
def construct(self, x, y):
return x + y
def bprop(self, x, y, out, dout):
return self.zeros_like(out), self.zeros_like(out)
Q: What can I do if an error “There isn’t any branch that can be evaluated“ is reported? When an error similar to “There isn’t any branch that can be evaluated” appears. it means that there may be infinite recursion or loop in the code, which causes each branch of the if condition to be unable to deduce the correct type and dimension information.
The example is as follow:
from mindspore import Tensor, ms_function
from mindspore import dtype as mstype
import mindspore.context as context
ZERO = Tensor([0], mstype.int32)
ONE = Tensor([1], mstype.int32)
@ms_function
def f(x):
y = ZERO
if x < 0:
y = f(x - 3)
elif x < 3:
y = x * f(x - 1)
elif x < 5:
y = x * f(x - 2)
else:
y = f(x - 4)
z = y + 1

Q: What can I do if an error “Exceed function call depth limit 1000” is reported?
This indicates that there is an infinite recursive loop in the code, or the code is too complex, that caused the stack depth exceed.
At this time, you can set context.set_context(max_call_depth = value) to change the maximum depth of the stack, and consider simplifying the code logic or checking whether there is infinite recursion or loop in the code.
Otherwise, set max_call_depth can change the recursive depth of MindSpore, it may also cause exceed the maximum depth of the system stack and cause segment fault. At this time, you may also need to set the system stack depth.
Q: Why report an error that ‘could not get source code’ and ‘Mindspore can not compile temporary source code in terminal. Please write source code to a python file and run the file.’?
A: When compiling a network, MindSpore use inspect.getsourcelines(self.fn) to get the code file. If the network is the temporary code which edited in terminal, MindSpore will report an error as the title. It can be solved if writing the network to a python file.
Q: What should I do if I encounter matplotlib.pyplot.show() (most often plt.show()) cannot be executed during the tutorial is running?
A: First confirm whether matplotlib is installed. If it is not installed, you can execute pip install matplotlib on the command line to install it.
Secondly, because the function of matplotlib.pyplot.show() is to display graph data graphically, it is necessary to run the system to support the graph display function. If the system cannot support graph display, the reader needs to comment out the command line of the graph display. Operation will not affect the results of the overall code.
Q: What issues should be paid attention to when using the Run in ModelArts in tutorials?
A: Need to confirm that the following preparations have been done.
First, you need to log in to ModelArts through your HUAWEI CLOUD account.
Secondly, note that the hardware environment supported by the tags in the tutorial document is Ascend, GPU or CPU. Since the hardware environment used by default after login is CPU, the Ascend environment and GPU environment need to be switched manually by the user.
Finally, confirm that the current
Kernelof Jupyter Notebook is MindSpore.
After completing the above steps, you can run the tutorial.
For the specific operation process, please refer to Based on ModelArts Online Experience MindSpore.
