python - 尝试在 tf.estimator 中使用 MirroredStrategy 时出错

Question

我正在尝试使用 tf.contrib.distribute.MirroredStrategy 作为 tf.estimator.RunConfig 的参数为我的 tensorflow 训练代码添加多 GPU 支持。

Tensorflow 版本:1.7(从源码编译)

Python 版本:3.5

操作系统平台及版本:Linux Ubuntu 16.04.2

我收到以下错误消息:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "python3.5/site-packages/tensorflow/python/training/coordinator.py", line 297, in stop_on_exception
    yield

    raise ValueError("`value_destination_pairs` must be a list or a tuple of "
ValueError: `value_destination_pairs` must be a list or a tuple of tuples of PerDevice objects and destinations

以下代码会产生错误(我省略了将 tfrecord 解析为图像张量的代码，因为我认为这段代码不会影响错误，但如果需要我可以添加它):

import glob, os
import tensorflow as tf
slim = tf.contrib.slim

# ...
# definition of args (arguments parser)

def input_fn():

    dataset = tf.data.TFRecordDataset(glob.glob(os.path.join(args.train_data_dir, 'train*')))
    dataset = dataset.map(
                lambda x: parse_and_preprocess_image(x, args.image_size),
                num_parallel_calls=2,
    )
    dataset = dataset.repeat()
    dataset = dataset.batch(batch_size=4)
    dataset = dataset.prefetch(1)

    return dataset


def model_fn(features, labels=None, mode=tf.estimator.ModeKeys.TRAIN, params=None):

    train_images_batch = features
    res = slim.conv2d(inputs=train_images_batch, kernel_size=9, stride=1, num_outputs=3, scope='conv1')
    loss = tf.reduce_mean((train_images_batch - res) ** 2)
    optimizer = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(0.001)
    train_op = slim.learning.create_train_op(loss, optimizer)
    return tf.estimator.EstimatorSpec(
        mode=tf.estimator.ModeKeys.TRAIN,
        loss=loss, train_op=train_op)


def train():

    init()

    distribution = tf.contrib.distribute.MirroredStrategy(num_gpus=args.num_gpus)

    config = tf.estimator.RunConfig(
        model_dir=args.log_dir,
        train_distribute=distribution,
    )

    estimator = tf.estimator.Estimator(model_fn=model_fn, config=config)
    estimator.train(
            input_fn=input_fn,
            max_steps=args.train_steps,
        )


def main():
    add_arguments()
    train()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

谢谢!

如果您指定了 num_gpus=1，则会发生此错误。对于单个 GPU，您可以使用 OneDeviceStrategy("/device:GPU:0") 而不是 MirroredStrategy。
