                     (i.e resume from CKPT_ROOT_DIR/EXPERIMENT_NAME/CKPT_NAME)

                - `ckpt_name` : str (default=ckpt_latest.pth)

                    The checkpoint (.pth file) filename in CKPT_ROOT_DIR/EXPERIMENT_NAME/ to use when resume=True and
                     resume_path=None

                - `resume_path`: str (default=None)

                    Explicit checkpoint path (.pth file) to use to resume training.

                - `max_epochs` : int

                    Number of epochs to run training.

                - `lr_updates` : list(int)

                    List of fixed epoch numbers to perform learning rate updates when `lr_mode='step'`.

                - `lr_decay_factor` : float

                    Decay factor to apply to the learning rate at each update when `lr_mode='step'`.


                -  `lr_mode` : str

                    Learning rate scheduling policy, one of ['step','poly','cosine','function'].

                    'step' refers to constant updates at epoch numbers passed through `lr_updates`. Each update decays the learning rate by `lr_decay_factor`.

                    'cosine' refers to the Cosine Anealing policy as mentioned in https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.03983.
                      The final learning rate ratio is controlled by `cosine_final_lr_ratio` training parameter.

                    'poly' refers to the polynomial decrease: in each epoch iteration `self.lr = self.initial_lr * pow((1.0 - (current_iter / max_iter)), 0.9)`

                    'function' refers to a user-defined learning rate scheduling function, that is passed through `lr_schedule_function`.

                - `lr_schedule_function` : Union[callable,None]

                    Learning rate scheduling function to be used when `lr_mode` is 'function'.

                - `warmup_mode`: Union[str, Type[LRCallbackBase], None]

                    If not None, define how the learning rate will be increased during the warmup phase.
                    Currently, only 'warmup_linear_epoch' and `warmup_linear_step` modes are supported.

                    Relevant for `warmup_mode=warmup_linear_epoch`.
                    When lr_warmup_epochs > 0, the learning rate will be increased linearly from 0 to the `initial_lr`
                    once per epoch.

                - `lr_warmup_steps` : int (default=0)

                    Number of steps for learning rate warm up - see https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.02677.pdf (Section 2.2).
                    Relevant for `warmup_mode=warmup_linear_step`.
                    When lr_warmup_steps > 0, the learning rate will be increased linearly from 0 to the `initial_lr`
                    for a total number of steps according to formula: min(lr_warmup_steps, len(train_loader)).
                    The capping is done to avoid interference of warmup with epoch-based schedulers.

                - `cosine_final_lr_ratio` : float (default=0.01)
                    Final learning rate ratio (only relevant when `lr_mode`='cosine'). The cosine starts from initial_lr and reaches
                     initial_lr * cosine_final_lr_ratio in last epoch

                - `inital_lr` : float

                    Initial learning rate.

                - `loss` : Union[nn.module, str]

                    Loss function for training.
                    One of SuperGradient's built in options:

                              "cross_entropy": LabelSmoothingCrossEntropyLoss,
                              "mse": MSELoss,
                              "r_squared_loss": RSquaredLoss,
                              "detection_loss": YoLoV3DetectionLoss,
                              "shelfnet_ohem_loss": ShelfNetOHEMLoss,
                              "shelfnet_se_loss": ShelfNetSemanticEncodingLoss,
                              "ssd_loss": SSDLoss,


                    or user defined nn.module loss function.

                    IMPORTANT: forward(...) should return a (loss, loss_items) tuple where loss is the tensor used
                    for backprop (i.e what your original loss function returns), and loss_items should be a tensor of
                    shape (n_items), of values computed during the forward pass which we desire to log over the
                    entire epoch. For example- the loss itself should always be logged. Another example is a scenario
                    where the computed loss is the sum of a few components we would like to log- these entries in
                    loss_items).

                    IMPORTANT:When dealing with external loss classes, to logg/monitor the loss_items as described
                    above by specific string name:

                    Set a "component_names" property in the loss class, whos instance is passed through train_params,
                     to be a list of strings, of length n_items who's ith element is the name of the ith entry in loss_items.
                     Then each item will be logged, rendered on tensorboard and "watched" (i.e saving model checkpoints
                     according to it) under <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>"/"<COMPONENT_NAME>. If a single item is returned rather then a
                     tuple, it would be logged under <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>. When there is no such attributed, the items
                     will be named <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>"/"Loss_"<IDX> according to the length of loss_items

                    For example:
                        class MyLoss(_Loss):
                            ...
                            def forward(self, inputs, targets):
                                ...
                                total_loss = comp1 + comp2
                                loss_items = torch.cat((total_loss.unsqueeze(0),comp1.unsqueeze(0), comp2.unsqueeze(0)).detach()
                                return total_loss, loss_items
                            ...
                            @property
                            def component_names(self):
                                return ["total_loss", "my_1st_component", "my_2nd_component"]

                    Trainer.train(...
                                    train_params={"loss":MyLoss(),
                                                    ...
                                                    "metric_to_watch": "MyLoss/my_1st_component"}

                        This will write to log and monitor MyLoss/total_loss, MyLoss/my_1st_component,
                         MyLoss/my_2nd_component.

                   For example:
                        class MyLoss2(_Loss):
                            ...
                            def forward(self, inputs, targets):
                                ...
                                total_loss = comp1 + comp2
                                loss_items = torch.cat((total_loss.unsqueeze(0),comp1.unsqueeze(0), comp2.unsqueeze(0)).detach()
                                return total_loss, loss_items
                            ...

                    Trainer.train(...
                                    train_params={"loss":MyLoss(),
                                                    ...
                                                    "metric_to_watch": "MyLoss2/loss_0"}

                        This will write to log and monitor MyLoss2/loss_0, MyLoss2/loss_1, MyLoss2/loss_2
                        as they have been named by their positional index in loss_items.

                    Since running logs will save the loss_items in some internal state, it is recommended that
                    loss_items are detached from their computational graph for memory efficiency.

                        loss function's forward pass (see loss docs abov).

                    At the end of each epoch, if a new best metric_to_watch value is achieved, the models checkpoint

                - `dataset_statistics` : bool (default=False)

                      for the forward pass, and further computations. Args for this callable should be in the order
                      (inputs, targets, batch_idx) returning modified_inputs, modified_targets

evaluate_checkpoint(experiment_name, ckpt_name='ckpt_latest.pth', ckpt_root_dir=None) classmethod

Evaluate a checkpoint resulting from one of your previous experiment, using the same parameters (dataset, valid_metrics,...) as used during the training of the experiment

Note: The parameters will be unchanged even if the recipe used for that experiment was changed since then. This is to ensure that validation of the experiment will remain exactly the same as during training.

Example, evaluate the checkpoint "average_model.pth" from experiment "my_experiment_name": >> evaluate_checkpoint(experiment_name="my_experiment_name", ckpt_name="average_model.pth")

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
experiment_name str

Name of the experiment to validate

required
ckpt_name str

Name of the checkpoint to test ("ckpt_latest.pth", "average_model.pth" or "ckpt_best.pth" for instance)

:param train_loader: Dataloader for train set.

:param training_params:

    - `resume` : bool (default=False)

        Whether to continue training from ckpt with the same experiment name
         (i.e resume from CKPT_ROOT_DIR/EXPERIMENT_NAME/CKPT_NAME)

    - `ckpt_name` : str (default=ckpt_latest.pth)

        The checkpoint (.pth file) filename in CKPT_ROOT_DIR/EXPERIMENT_NAME/ to use when resume=True and
         resume_path=None

    - `resume_path`: str (default=None)

        Explicit checkpoint path (.pth file) to use to resume training.

    - `max_epochs` : int

        Number of epochs to run training.

    - `lr_updates` : list(int)

        List of fixed epoch numbers to perform learning rate updates when `lr_mode='step'`.

    - `lr_decay_factor` : float

        Decay factor to apply to the learning rate at each update when `lr_mode='step'`.


    -  `lr_mode` : str

        Learning rate scheduling policy, one of ['step','poly','cosine','function'].

        'step' refers to constant updates at epoch numbers passed through `lr_updates`. Each update decays the learning rate by `lr_decay_factor`.

        'cosine' refers to the Cosine Anealing policy as mentioned in https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.03983.
          The final learning rate ratio is controlled by `cosine_final_lr_ratio` training parameter.

        'poly' refers to the polynomial decrease: in each epoch iteration `self.lr = self.initial_lr * pow((1.0 - (current_iter / max_iter)), 0.9)`

        'function' refers to a user-defined learning rate scheduling function, that is passed through `lr_schedule_function`.

    - `lr_schedule_function` : Union[callable,None]

        Learning rate scheduling function to be used when `lr_mode` is 'function'.

    - `warmup_mode`: Union[str, Type[LRCallbackBase], None]

        If not None, define how the learning rate will be increased during the warmup phase.
        Currently, only 'warmup_linear_epoch' and `warmup_linear_step` modes are supported.

    - `lr_warmup_epochs` : int (default=0)

        Number of epochs for learning rate warm up - see https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.02677.pdf (Section 2.2).
        Relevant for `warmup_mode=warmup_linear_epoch`.
        When lr_warmup_epochs > 0, the learning rate will be increased linearly from 0 to the `initial_lr`
        once per epoch.

    - `lr_warmup_steps` : int (default=0)

        Number of steps for learning rate warm up - see https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.02677.pdf (Section 2.2).
        Relevant for `warmup_mode=warmup_linear_step`.
        When lr_warmup_steps > 0, the learning rate will be increased linearly from 0 to the `initial_lr`
        for a total number of steps according to formula: min(lr_warmup_steps, len(train_loader)).
        The capping is done to avoid interference of warmup with epoch-based schedulers.

    - `cosine_final_lr_ratio` : float (default=0.01)
        Final learning rate ratio (only relevant when `lr_mode`='cosine'). The cosine starts from initial_lr and reaches
         initial_lr * cosine_final_lr_ratio in last epoch

    - `inital_lr` : float

        Initial learning rate.

    - `loss` : Union[nn.module, str]

        Loss function for training.
        One of SuperGradient's built in options:

                  "cross_entropy": LabelSmoothingCrossEntropyLoss,
                  "mse": MSELoss,
                  "r_squared_loss": RSquaredLoss,
                  "detection_loss": YoLoV3DetectionLoss,
                  "shelfnet_ohem_loss": ShelfNetOHEMLoss,
                  "shelfnet_se_loss": ShelfNetSemanticEncodingLoss,
                  "ssd_loss": SSDLoss,


        or user defined nn.module loss function.

        IMPORTANT: forward(...) should return a (loss, loss_items) tuple where loss is the tensor used
        for backprop (i.e what your original loss function returns), and loss_items should be a tensor of
        shape (n_items), of values computed during the forward pass which we desire to log over the
        entire epoch. For example- the loss itself should always be logged. Another example is a scenario
        where the computed loss is the sum of a few components we would like to log- these entries in
        loss_items).

        IMPORTANT:When dealing with external loss classes, to logg/monitor the loss_items as described
        above by specific string name:

        Set a "component_names" property in the loss class, whos instance is passed through train_params,
         to be a list of strings, of length n_items who's ith element is the name of the ith entry in loss_items.
         Then each item will be logged, rendered on tensorboard and "watched" (i.e saving model checkpoints
         according to it) under <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>"/"<COMPONENT_NAME>. If a single item is returned rather then a
         tuple, it would be logged under <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>. When there is no such attributed, the items
         will be named <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>"/"Loss_"<IDX> according to the length of loss_items

        For example:
            class MyLoss(_Loss):
                ...
                def forward(self, inputs, targets):
                    ...
                    total_loss = comp1 + comp2
                    loss_items = torch.cat((total_loss.unsqueeze(0),comp1.unsqueeze(0), comp2.unsqueeze(0)).detach()
                    return total_loss, loss_items
                ...
                @property
                def component_names(self):
                    return ["total_loss", "my_1st_component", "my_2nd_component"]

        Trainer.train(...
                        train_params={"loss":MyLoss(),
                                        ...
                                        "metric_to_watch": "MyLoss/my_1st_component"}

            This will write to log and monitor MyLoss/total_loss, MyLoss/my_1st_component,
             MyLoss/my_2nd_component.

       For example:
            class MyLoss2(_Loss):
                ...
                def forward(self, inputs, targets):
                    ...
                    total_loss = comp1 + comp2
                    loss_items = torch.cat((total_loss.unsqueeze(0),comp1.unsqueeze(0), comp2.unsqueeze(0)).detach()
                    return total_loss, loss_items
                ...

        Trainer.train(...
                        train_params={"loss":MyLoss(),
                                        ...
                                        "metric_to_watch": "MyLoss2/loss_0"}

            This will write to log and monitor MyLoss2/loss_0, MyLoss2/loss_1, MyLoss2/loss_2
            as they have been named by their positional index in loss_items.

        Since running logs will save the loss_items in some internal state, it is recommended that
        loss_items are detached from their computational graph for memory efficiency.

        will be the metric which the model checkpoint will be saved according to, and can be set to any
        of the following:

            a metric name (str) of one of the metric objects from the valid_metrics_list

            a "metric_name" if some metric in valid_metrics_list has an attribute component_names which
            is a list referring to the names of each entry in the output metric (torch tensor of size n)

            one of "loss_logging_items_names" i.e which will correspond to an item returned during the
            loss function's forward pass (see loss docs abov).

        At the end of each epoch, if a new best metric_to_watch value is achieved, the models checkpoint
        is saved in YOUR_PYTHON_PATH/checkpoints/ckpt_best.pth

    - `greater_metric_to_watch_is_better` : bool

        When choosing a model's checkpoint to be saved, the best achieved model is the one that maximizes the
         metric_to_watch when this parameter is set to True, and a one that minimizes it otherwise.

    - `ema` : bool (default=False)

        Whether to use Model Exponential Moving Average (see

        If set, a snapshot dictionary file and the average model will be saved / updated at every epoch
        and evaluated only when training is completed. The snapshot file will only be deleted upon
        completing the training. The snapshot dict will be managed on cpu.

    - `precise_bn` : bool (default=False)

        Whether to use precise_bn calculation during the training.

    - `precise_bn_batch_size` : int (default=None)

        The effective batch size we want to calculate the batchnorm on. For example, if we are training a model
        on 8 gpus, with a batch of 128 on each gpu, a good rule of thumb would be to give it 8192
        (ie: effective_batch_size * num_gpus = batch_per_gpu * num_gpus * num_gpus).
        If precise_bn_batch_size is not provided in the training_params, the latter heuristic will be taken.

    - `seed` : int (default=42)

    -   `pre_prediction_callback` : Callable (default=None)

         When not None, this callback will be applied to images and targets, and returning them to be used
          for the forward pass, and further computations. Args for this callable should be in the order
          (inputs, targets, batch_idx) returning modified_inputs, modified_targets

    -   `ckpt_best_name` : str (default='ckpt_best.pth')

    train - Trains the Model

    IMPORTANT NOTE: Additional batch parameters can be added as a third item (optional) if a tuple is returned by
      the data loaders, as dictionary. The phase context will hold the additional items, under an attribute with
      the same name as the key in this dictionary. Then such items can be accessed through phase callbacks.

        :param additional_configs_to_log: Dict, dictionary containing configs that will be added to the training's

        :param valid_loader: Dataloader for validation.
        :param training_params:

            - `resume` : bool (default=False)

                Whether to continue training from ckpt with the same experiment name
                 (i.e resume from CKPT_ROOT_DIR/EXPERIMENT_NAME/CKPT_NAME)

            - `ckpt_name` : str (default=ckpt_latest.pth)

                The checkpoint (.pth file) filename in CKPT_ROOT_DIR/EXPERIMENT_NAME/ to use when resume=True and
                 resume_path=None

            - `resume_path`: str (default=None)

                Explicit checkpoint path (.pth file) to use to resume training.

            - `max_epochs` : int

                Number of epochs to run training.

            - `lr_updates` : list(int)

                List of fixed epoch numbers to perform learning rate updates when `lr_mode='step'`.

            - `lr_decay_factor` : float

                Decay factor to apply to the learning rate at each update when `lr_mode='step'`.


            -  `lr_mode` : str

                Learning rate scheduling policy, one of ['step','poly','cosine','function'].

                'step' refers to constant updates at epoch numbers passed through `lr_updates`. Each update decays the learning rate by `lr_decay_factor`.

                'cosine' refers to the Cosine Anealing policy as mentioned in https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.03983.
                  The final learning rate ratio is controlled by `cosine_final_lr_ratio` training parameter.

                'poly' refers to the polynomial decrease: in each epoch iteration `self.lr = self.initial_lr * pow((1.0 - (current_iter / max_iter)), 0.9)`

                'function' refers to a user-defined learning rate scheduling function, that is passed through `lr_schedule_function`.

            - `lr_schedule_function` : Union[callable,None]

                Learning rate scheduling function to be used when `lr_mode` is 'function'.

            - `warmup_mode`: Union[str, Type[LRCallbackBase], None]

                If not None, define how the learning rate will be increased during the warmup phase.
                Currently, only 'warmup_linear_epoch' and `warmup_linear_step` modes are supported.

            - `lr_warmup_epochs` : int (default=0)

                Number of epochs for learning rate warm up - see https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.02677.pdf (Section 2.2).
                Relevant for `warmup_mode=warmup_linear_epoch`.
                When lr_warmup_epochs > 0, the learning rate will be increased linearly from 0 to the `initial_lr`
                once per epoch.

            - `lr_warmup_steps` : int (default=0)

                Number of steps for learning rate warm up - see https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.02677.pdf (Section 2.2).
                Relevant for `warmup_mode=warmup_linear_step`.
                When lr_warmup_steps > 0, the learning rate will be increased linearly from 0 to the `initial_lr`
                for a total number of steps according to formula: min(lr_warmup_steps, len(train_loader)).
                The capping is done to avoid interference of warmup with epoch-based schedulers.

            - `cosine_final_lr_ratio` : float (default=0.01)
                Final learning rate ratio (only relevant when `lr_mode`='cosine'). The cosine starts from initial_lr and reaches
                 initial_lr * cosine_final_lr_ratio in last epoch

            - `inital_lr` : float

                Initial learning rate.

            - `loss` : Union[nn.module, str]

                Loss function for training.
                One of SuperGradient's built in options:

                          "cross_entropy": LabelSmoothingCrossEntropyLoss,
                          "mse": MSELoss,
                          "r_squared_loss": RSquaredLoss,
                          "detection_loss": YoLoV3DetectionLoss,
                          "shelfnet_ohem_loss": ShelfNetOHEMLoss,
                          "shelfnet_se_loss": ShelfNetSemanticEncodingLoss,
                          "ssd_loss": SSDLoss,


                or user defined nn.module loss function.

                IMPORTANT: forward(...) should return a (loss, loss_items) tuple where loss is the tensor used
                for backprop (i.e what your original loss function returns), and loss_items should be a tensor of
                shape (n_items), of values computed during the forward pass which we desire to log over the
                entire epoch. For example- the loss itself should always be logged. Another example is a scenario
                where the computed loss is the sum of a few components we would like to log- these entries in
                loss_items).

                IMPORTANT:When dealing with external loss classes, to logg/monitor the loss_items as described
                above by specific string name:

                Set a "component_names" property in the loss class, whos instance is passed through train_params,
                 to be a list of strings, of length n_items who's ith element is the name of the ith entry in loss_items.
                 Then each item will be logged, rendered on tensorboard and "watched" (i.e saving model checkpoints
                 according to it) under <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>"/"<COMPONENT_NAME>. If a single item is returned rather then a
                 tuple, it would be logged under <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>. When there is no such attributed, the items
                 will be named <LOSS_CLASS.__name__>"/"Loss_"<IDX> according to the length of loss_items

                For example:
                    class MyLoss(_Loss):
                        ...
                        def forward(self, inputs, targets):
                            ...
                            total_loss = comp1 + comp2
                            loss_items = torch.cat((total_loss.unsqueeze(0),comp1.unsqueeze(0), comp2.unsqueeze(0)).detach()
                            return total_loss, loss_items
                        ...
                        @property
                        def component_names(self):
                            return ["total_loss", "my_1st_component", "my_2nd_component"]

                Trainer.train(...
                                train_params={"loss":MyLoss(),
                                                ...
                                                "metric_to_watch": "MyLoss/my_1st_component"}

                    This will write to log and monitor MyLoss/total_loss, MyLoss/my_1st_component,
                     MyLoss/my_2nd_component.

               For example:
                    class MyLoss2(_Loss):
                        ...
                        def forward(self, inputs, targets):
                            ...
                            total_loss = comp1 + comp2
                            loss_items = torch.cat((total_loss.unsqueeze(0),comp1.unsqueeze(0), comp2.unsqueeze(0)).detach()
                            return total_loss, loss_items
                        ...

                Trainer.train(...
                                train_params={"loss":MyLoss(),
                                                ...
                                                "metric_to_watch": "MyLoss2/loss_0"}

                    This will write to log and monitor MyLoss2/loss_0, MyLoss2/loss_1, MyLoss2/loss_2
                    as they have been named by their positional index in loss_items.

                Since running logs will save the loss_items in some internal state, it is recommended that
                loss_items are detached from their computational graph for memory efficiency.

            - `optimizer` : Union[str, torch.optim.Optimizer]

                Optimization algorithm. One of ['Adam','SGD','RMSProp'] corresponding to the torch.optim

                The list of names/titles for the outputs returned from the loss functions forward pass (reminder-
                the loss function should return the tuple (loss, loss_items)). These names will be used for
                logging their values.

            - `metric_to_watch` : str (default="Accuracy")

                will be the metric which the model checkpoint will be saved according to, and can be set to any

                    one of "loss_logging_items_names" i.e which will correspond to an item returned during the
                    loss function's forward pass (see loss docs abov).

                At the end of each epoch, if a new best metric_to_watch value is achieved, the models checkpoint
                is saved in YOUR_PYTHON_PATH/checkpoints/ckpt_best.pth

            - `greater_metric_to_watch_is_better` : bool

                When choosing a model's checkpoint to be saved, the best achieved model is the one that maximizes the

                on 8 gpus, with a batch of 128 on each gpu, a good rule of thumb would be to give it 8192
                (ie: effective_batch_size * num_gpus = batch_per_gpu * num_gpus * num_gpus).

                Enable a statistic analysis of the dataset. If set to True the dataset will be analyzed and a report
                will be added to the tensorboard along with some sample images from the dataset. Currently only
                detection datasets are supported for analysis.

            -  `sg_logger` : Union[AbstractSGLogger, str] (defauls=base_sg_logger)

                Define the SGLogger object for this training process. The SGLogger handles all disk writes, logs, TensorBoard, remote logging
                and remote storage. By overriding the default base_sg_logger, you can change the storage location, support external monitoring and logging
                or support remote storage.

                  for the forward pass, and further computations. Args for this callable should be in the order
                  (inputs, targets, batch_idx) returning modified_inputs, modified_targets

            -   `ckpt_best_name` : str (default='ckpt_best.pth')

                The best checkpoint (according to metric_to_watch) will be saved under this filename in the checkpoints directory.

            -   `max_train_batches`: int, for debug- when not None- will break out of inner train loop (i.e iterating over
                  train_loader) when reaching this number of batches. Usefull for debugging (default=None).

            -   `max_valid_batches`: int, for debug- when not None- will break out of inner valid loop (i.e iterating over
                  valid_loader) when reaching this number of batches. Usefull for debugging (default=None).
