在这个教程里，我们将学习如何使用数据并行(DataParallel）来使用多GPU。
PyTorch非常容易的就可以使用GPU，可以用如下方式把一个模型放到GPU上:
device = torch.device("cuda: 0")
model.to(device)然后可以复制所有的张量到GPU上:
mytensor = my_tensor.to(device)请注意，调用my_tensor.to(device)返回一个GPU上的my_tensor副本，而不是重写my_tensor。你需要把它赋值给一个新的张量并在GPU上使用这个张量。
在多GPU上执行正向和反向传播是自然而然的事。然而，PyTorch 默认将只是用一个GPU。你可以使用DataParallel让模型并行运行来轻易的在多个GPU上运行你的操作。
model = nn.DataParallel(model)这是这篇教程背后的核心，我们接下来将更详细的介绍它。
导入和参数
导入 PyTorch 模块和定义参数。
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
from torch.utils.data import Dataset, DataLoader
## Parameters 和 DataLoaders
input_size = 5
output_size = 2
batch_size = 30
data_size = 100设备( Device ）:
device = torch.device("cuda: 0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")虚拟数据集
要制作一个虚拟(随机）数据集，你只需实现__getitem__。
class RandomDataset(Dataset):
def __init__(self, size, length):
self.len = length
self.data = torch.randn(length, size)
def __getitem__(self, index):
return self.data[index]
def __len__(self):
return self.len
rand_loader = DataLoader(dataset=RandomDataset(input_size, data_size),
batch_size=batch_size, shuffle=True)简单模型
作为演示，我们的模型只接受一个输入，执行一个线性操作，然后得到结果。然而，你能在任何模型(CNN，RNN，Capsule Net等）上使用DataParallel。
我们在模型内部放置了一条打印语句来检测输入和输出向量的大小。请注意批等级为0时打印的内容。
class Model(nn.Module):
# Our model
def __init__(self, input_size, output_size):
super(Model, self).__init__()
self.fc = nn.Linear(input_size, output_size)
def forward(self, input):
output = self.fc(input)
print("\tIn Model: input size", input.size(),
"output size", output.size())
return output创建一个模型和数据并行
这是本教程的核心部分。首先，我们需要创建一个模型实例和检测我们是否有多个GPU。如果我们有多个GPU，我们使用nn.DataParallel来包装我们的模型。然后通过model.to(device)把模型放到GPU上。
model = Model(input_size, output_size)
if torch.cuda.device_count() > 1:
print("Let's use", torch.cuda.device_count(), "GPUs!")
# dim = 0 [30, xxx] -> [10, ...], [10, ...], [10, ...] on 3 GPUs
model = nn.DataParallel(model)
model.to(device)输出:
Let's use 2 GPUs!运行模型
现在我们可以看输入和输出张量的大小。
for data in rand_loader:
input = data.to(device)
output = model(input)
print("Outside: input size", input.size(),
"output_size", output.size())输出:
In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([30, 5]) output_size torch.Size([30, 2])
In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([30, 5]) output_size torch.Size([30, 2])
In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([30, 5]) output_size torch.Size([30, 2])
In Model: input size torch.Size([5, 5]) output size torch.Size([5, 2])
In Model: input size torch.Size([5, 5]) output size torch.Size([5, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([10, 5]) output_size torch.Size([10, 2])结果
如果没有GPU或只有1个GPU，当我们对30个输入和输出进行批处理时，我们和期望的一样得到30个输入和30个输出，但是若有多个GPU，会得到如下的结果。
