"train.py" crush when using flag --use_mixture_loss

[BarRozenman]

I run the train.py as follows

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 torchrun  train.py \
--png \
--model_name exp1 \
--use_denseaspp \
--plane_residual \
--flip_right \
--use_mixture_loss

and I get

>> CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 torchrun  train.py \                                                                                                                                             [main]
--png \
--model_name exp1 \
--use_denseaspp \
--plane_residual \
--flip_right \
--use_mixture_loss \

[W reducer.cpp:1303] Warning: find_unused_parameters=True was specified in DDP constructor, but did not find any unused parameters in the forward pass. This flag results in an extra traversal of the autograd graph every iteration,  which can adversely affect performance. If your model indeed never has any unused parameters in the forward pass, consider turning this flag off. Note that this warning may be a false positive if your model has flow control causing later iterations to have unused parameters. (function operator())

Any other configuration for "train.py" I use without --use_mixture_loss run smoothly.
for example, command below runs well.

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 torchrun  train.py \
--png \
--model_name exp1 \
--use_denseaspp \
--plane_residual \
--flip_right

Can anyone please help me fix this?

Hi, I tested the code on various types of GPUs but did not get the same error😥. Since running with MLL is only a little different from L1 loss, I think these are 2 key snippet

Loss Function

change if self.opt.use_mixture_loss in line 728 of trainer.py to if False to eliminate the problem of loss calculation.

Warping Function

change if self.opt.use_mixture_loss in line 594 of trainer.py to if False to eliminate the problem of sigma-dependent probability.
change if self.opt.use_mixture_loss in line 570 of trainer.py to if False to eliminate the problem of sigma warping.

The flag in depth_decoder.py also cause difference, but I don't think it's the main problem.

I hope these may halp you catch the troublemaker. Please let me know if you got anything new.

[BarRozenman]

Thank you, but I was hoping that I could use the mixture loss and not just avoid it

[Dwawayu]

Yeah, you’re right. But maybe these tips can help you find the main issue which might be just 1 or 2 lines of code and then we can fix it to stop this error.

[BarRozenman]

Could you add the list of the GPUs that you tested the repository on?

[BarRozenman]

I sloved it! all I had to do is to reduce the batch_size and it runs smoothly, maybe this issue can be added to a "known issues" section in the readme.md file

[Dwawayu]

Awesome! I'm so happy that the problem is solved! I will add it to readme.md following your suggestion, thank you!
