一、禁止计算局部梯度
torch.autogard.no_grad: 禁用梯度计算的上下文管理器。
当确定不会调用Tensor.backward()计算梯度时，设置禁止计算梯度会减少内存消耗。如果需要计算梯度设置Tensor.requires_grad=True
两种禁用方法：
将不用计算梯度的变量放在with torch.no_grad()里
>>> x = torch.tensor([1.], requires_grad=True)
>>> with torch.no_grad():
... y = x * 2
>>> y.requires_grad
Out[12]:False
使用装饰器 @torch.no_gard()修饰的函数，在调用时不允许计算梯度
>>> @torch.no_grad()
... def doubler(x):
... return x * 2
>>> z = doubler(x)
>>> z.requires_grad
Out[13]:False
二、禁止后允许计算局部梯度
torch.autogard.enable_grad ：允许计算梯度的上下文管理器
在一个no_grad上下文中使能梯度计算。在no_grad外部此上下文管理器无影响.
用法和上面类似：
使用with torch.enable_grad()允许计算梯度
>>> x = torch.tensor([1.], requires_grad=True)
>>> with torch.no_grad():
... with torch.enable_grad():
... y = x * 2
>>> y.requires_grad
Out[14]:True
>>> y.backward() # 计算梯度
>>> x.grad
Out[15]: tensor([2.])
在禁止计算梯度下调用被允许计算梯度的函数，结果可以计算梯度
>>> @torch.enable_grad()
... def doubler(x):
... return x * 2
>>> with torch.no_grad():
... z = doubler(x)
>>> z.requires_grad
Out[16]:True
三、是否计算梯度
torch.autograd.set_grad_enable()
可以作为一个函数使用：
>>> x = torch.tensor([1.], requires_grad=True)
>>> is_train = False
>>> with torch.set_grad_enabled(is_train):
... y = x * 2
>>> y.requires_grad
Out[17]:False
>>> torch.set_grad_enabled(True)
>>> y = x * 2
>>> y.requires_grad
Out[18]:True
>>> torch.set_grad_enabled(False)
>>> y = x * 2
>>> y.requires_grad
Out[19]:False
总结：
单独使用这三个函数时没有什么，但是若是嵌套，遵循就近原则。
x = torch.tensor([1.], requires_grad=True)
with torch.enable_grad():
torch.set_grad_enabled(False)
y = x * 2
print(y.requires_grad)
Out[20]: False
torch.set_grad_enabled(True)
with torch.no_grad():
z = x * 2
print(z.requires_grad)
Out[21]:False
补充：pytorch局部范围内禁用梯度计算，no_grad、enable_grad、set_grad_enabled使用举例
原文及翻译
Locally disabling gradient computation
在局部区域内关闭(禁用)梯度的计算.
The context managers torch.no_grad(), torch.enable_grad(),
and torch.set_grad_enabled() are helpful for locally disabling
and enabling gradient computation. See Locally disabling gradient
computation for more details on their usage. These context
managers are thread local, so they won't work if you send
work to another thread using the threading module, etc.
上下文管理器torch.no_grad()、torch.enable_grad()和
torch.set_grad_enabled()可以用来在局部范围内启用或禁用梯度计算.
在Locally disabling gradient computation章节中详细介绍了
局部禁用梯度计算的使用方式.这些上下文管理器具有线程局部性,
因此,如果你使用threading模块来将工作负载发送到另一个线程,
这些上下文管理器将不会起作用.
no_grad Context-manager that disabled gradient calculation.
no_grad 用于禁用梯度计算的上下文管理器.
enable_grad Context-manager that enables gradient calculation.
enable_grad 用于启用梯度计算的上下文管理器.
set_grad_enabled Context-manager that sets gradient calculation to on or off.
set_grad_enabled 用于设置梯度计算打开或关闭状态的上下文管理器.
