ResBlock1D.set_submodule

ResBlock1D.set_submodule(target: str, module: Module, strict: bool = False) → None[source]

Set the submodule given by target if it exists, otherwise throw an error.

Note

If strict is set to False (default), the method will replace an existing submodule or create a new submodule if the parent module exists. If strict is set to True, the method will only attempt to replace an existing submodule and throw an error if the submodule does not exist.

For example, let’s say you have an nn.Module A that looks like this:

A(
    (net_b): Module(
        (net_c): Module(
            (conv): Conv2d(3, 3, 3)
        )
        (linear): Linear(3, 3)
    )
)

(The diagram shows an nn.Module A. A has a nested submodule net_b, which itself has two submodules net_c and linear. net_c then has a submodule conv.)

To override the Conv2d with a new submodule Linear, you could call set_submodule("net_b.net_c.conv", nn.Linear(1, 1)) where strict could be True or False

To add a new submodule Conv2d to the existing net_b module, you would call set_submodule("net_b.conv", nn.Conv2d(1, 1, 1)).

In the above if you set strict=True and call set_submodule("net_b.conv", nn.Conv2d(1, 1, 1), strict=True), an AttributeError will be raised because net_b does not have a submodule named conv.

Args:

target: The fully-qualified string name of the submodule: to look for. (See above example for how to specify a fully-qualified string.)

module: The module to set the submodule to. strict: If False, the method will replace an existing submodule

or create a new submodule if the parent module exists. If True, the method will only attempt to replace an existing submodule and throw an error if the submodule doesn’t already exist.

Raises:

ValueError: If the target string is empty or if module is not an instance of nn.Module. AttributeError: If at any point along the path resulting from

the target string the (sub)path resolves to a non-existent attribute name or an object that is not an instance of nn.Module.
