to_static_state_dict ( destination=None, include_sublayers=True, structured_name_prefix='', use_hook=True )

to_static_state_dict

Get all parameters and buffers of current layer and its sub-layers. And set them into a dict

Parameters
  • destination (dict, optional) – If provide, all the parameters and persistable buffers will be set to this dict . Default: None

  • include_sublayers (bool, optional) – If true, also include the parameters and persistable buffers from sublayers. Default: True

  • use_hook (bool, optional) – If true, the operations contained in _state_dict_hooks will be appended to the destination. Default: True

Retruns:

dict, a dict contains all the parameters and persistable buffers.

Examples

import paddle

emb = paddle.nn.Embedding(10, 10)

state_dict = emb.to_static_state_dict()
paddle.save( state_dict, "paddle_dy.pdparams")
train ( )

train

Sets this Layer and all its sublayers to training mode. This only effects certain modules like Dropout and BatchNorm.

Returns

None

Examples

import paddle

class MyLayer(paddle.nn.Layer):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self._linear = paddle.nn.Linear(1, 1)
        self._dropout = paddle.nn.Dropout(p=0.5)

    def forward(self, input):
        temp = self._linear(input)
        temp = self._dropout(temp)
        return temp

x = paddle.randn([10, 1], 'float32')
mylayer = MyLayer()
mylayer.eval()  # set mylayer._dropout to eval mode
out = mylayer(x)
mylayer.train()  # set mylayer._dropout to train mode
out = mylayer(x)
