渐变裁剪似乎使"None"窒息 [英] Gradient clipping appears to choke on None

问题描述

我正在尝试向图形添加渐变裁剪.我使用了此处推荐的方法:如何在张量流?

I'm trying to add gradient clipping to my graph. I used the approach recommended here: How to effectively apply gradient clipping in tensor flow?

    optimizer = tf.train.GradientDescentOptimizer(learning_rate)
    if gradient_clipping:
        gradients = optimizer.compute_gradients(loss)
        clipped_gradients = [(tf.clip_by_value(grad, -1, 1), var) for grad, var in gradients]
        opt = optimizer.apply_gradients(clipped_gradients, global_step=global_step)
    else:
        opt = optimizer.minimize(loss, global_step=global_step)

但是当我打开渐变裁剪时，我得到以下堆栈跟踪:

But when I turn on gradient clipping, I get the following stack trace:

     61         if gradient_clipping:

---> 63             clipped_gradients = [(tf.clip_by_value(grad, -1., 1.), var) for grad, var in gradients]
     64             opt = optimizer.apply_gradients(clipped_gradients, global_step=global_step)
     65         else:

    347     # if dtype is provided, forces numpy array to be the type
    348     # provided if possible.

ValueError: None values not supported.

我该如何解决这个问题?

How do I solve this problem?

推荐答案

因此，一种可行的选择是:

So, one option that seems to work is this:

    optimizer = tf.train.GradientDescentOptimizer(learning_rate)
    if gradient_clipping:
        gradients = optimizer.compute_gradients(loss)

        def ClipIfNotNone(grad):
            if grad is None:
                return grad
            return tf.clip_by_value(grad, -1, 1)
        clipped_gradients = [(ClipIfNotNone(grad), var) for grad, var in gradients]
        opt = optimizer.apply_gradients(clipped_gradients, global_step=global_step)
    else:
        opt = optimizer.minimize(loss, global_step=global_step)

当渐变将是零张量并且tf.clip_by_value不支持None值时，看起来compute_gradients返回None而不是零张量.因此，不要将None传递给它并保留None值.

It looks like compute_gradients returns None instead of a zero tensor when the gradient would be a zero tensor and tf.clip_by_value does not support a None value. So just don't pass None to it and preserve None values.
