Gael Le Lan cb7f45fd34 remove unnecessary sync point in AveragedModel update (#158017)
Summary:
The test `bool(self.n_averaged == 0)` is a CPU/GPU synchronization point that is called for each update.
This test is only meant to know whether the AveragedModel copy has been initialized or not.
This diff introduces a CPU-based variable for that purpose.
When loading from checkpoint we also make sure the parameter is refreshed.

After this fix, each `update_parameter` call is reduced to 6ms from 333ms (98% reduction).

r"""Implements averaged model for Stochastic Weight Averaging (SWA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
Stochastic Weight Averaging was proposed in `Averaging Weights Leads to
Wider Optima and Better Generalization`_ by Pavel Izmailov, Dmitrii
Podoprikhin, Timur Garipov, Dmitry Vetrov and Andrew Gordon Wilson
(UAI 2018).
Exponential Moving Average is a variation of `Polyak averaging`_,
but using exponential weights instead of equal weights across iterations.
AveragedModel class creates a copy of the provided module :attr:`model`
on the device :attr:`device` and allows to compute running averages of the
parameters of the :attr:`model`.
Args:
model (torch.nn.Module): model to use with SWA/EMA
device (torch.device, optional): if provided, the averaged model will be
stored on the :attr:`device`
avg_fn (function, optional): the averaging function used to update
parameters; the function must take in the current value of the
:class:`AveragedModel` parameter, the current value of :attr:`model`
parameter, and the number of models already averaged; if None,
an equally weighted average is used (default: None)
multi_avg_fn (function, optional): the averaging function used to update
parameters inplace; the function must take in the current values of the
:class:`AveragedModel` parameters as a list, the current values of :attr:`model`
parameters as a list, and the number of models already averaged; if None,
an equally weighted average is used (default: None)
use_buffers (bool): if ``True``, it will compute running averages for
both the parameters and the buffers of the model. (default: ``False``)
Example:
>>> # xdoctest: +SKIP("undefined variables")
>>> loader, optimizer, model, loss_fn = ...
>>> swa_model = torch.optim.swa_utils.AveragedModel(model)
>>> scheduler = torch.optim.lr_scheduler.CosineAnnealingLR(optimizer,
>>> T_max=300)
>>> swa_start = 160
>>> swa_scheduler = SWALR(optimizer, swa_lr=0.05)
>>> for i in range(300):
>>> for input, target in loader:
>>> optimizer.zero_grad()
>>> loss_fn(model(input), target).backward()
>>> optimizer.step()
>>> if i > swa_start:
>>> swa_model.update_parameters(model)
>>> swa_scheduler.step()
>>> else:
>>> scheduler.step()
>>>
>>> # Update bn statistics for the swa_model at the end
>>> torch.optim.swa_utils.update_bn(loader, swa_model)
You can also use custom averaging functions with the `avg_fn` or `multi_avg_fn` parameters.
If no averaging function is provided, the default is to compute
equally-weighted average of the weights (SWA).
Example:
>>> # xdoctest: +SKIP("undefined variables")
>>> # Compute exponential moving averages of the weights and buffers
>>> ema_model = torch.optim.swa_utils.AveragedModel(model,
>>> torch.optim.swa_utils.get_ema_multi_avg_fn(0.9), use_buffers=True)
.. note::
When using SWA/EMA with models containing Batch Normalization you may
need to update the activation statistics for Batch Normalization.
This can be done either by using the :meth:`torch.optim.swa_utils.update_bn`
or by setting :attr:`use_buffers` to `True`. The first approach updates the
statistics in a post-training step by passing data through the model. The
second does it during the parameter update phase by averaging all buffers.
Empirical evidence has shown that updating the statistics in normalization
layers increases accuracy, but you may wish to empirically test which
approach yields the best results in your problem.
.. note::
:attr:`avg_fn` and `multi_avg_fn` are not saved in the :meth:`state_dict` of the model.
.. note::
When :meth:`update_parameters` is called for the first time (i.e.
:attr:`n_averaged` is `0`) the parameters of `model` are copied
to the parameters of :class:`AveragedModel`. For every subsequent
call of :meth:`update_parameters` the function `avg_fn` is used
to update the parameters.
