@gilbertfrancois I did a quick test, to answer your question: > I don't understand why y_out from MyNet with BatchNorm on GPU still contains real numbers, given that the layer before outputs NaNs? The logged y_out and y_embedding actually came from two separate forward runs. And y_embedding came at the second run. The first run was done with training mode(with autograd.record(train_mode=True), and the second run was done without recording (not training). The first run should get both y_out and y_embeddings correctly. Unfortunately, the first run got the first BatchNorm's running var in tail into NaN, so the second run will get NaN for both y_embedding and y_out (did not print out). I have not figured out why the NaN's happened in tail only, as there are also many more BN in the features (and seem those are OK). Will dig more. BTW, if you print the embedding before y_out, you will get both without NaN's. Non-training mode will get your answer correct. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
