Sorry, the example above was just to show how to create a layer, so I didn't consider using the latest APIs. And there are no direct params in Model. If we let users override set_params/get_params,the code for every layer is quite similar. ```Python def get_params(self): self.param_names = ['W', 'b'] super(LayerName, self).get_params() def set_params(self, **params): self.param_names = ['W', 'b'] super(LayerName, self).set_params() ``` So if users declare the names of params and states in \_\_init\_\_, we can handle them well and users just need to override three functions(\_\_init\_\_, initialize, forward). Another strategy is that we create a subclass of Tensor(named Param) and use that class to create params. In this way, we can distinguish params from all member variables. ```Python # self.W = Tensor(shape=w_shape, requires_grad=True, stores_grad=True) self.W = Param(shape=w_shape, requires_grad=True, stores_grad=True) ``` ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
