RuntimeError: Error(s) in loading state_dict for DataParallel: Unexpected key(s) in state_dict: “module.scibert_layer.embeddings.position_ids”


I am getting the following error while trying to load a saved model checkpoint (.pth file).

RuntimeError: Error(s) in loading state_dict for DataParallel: Unexpected key(s) in state_dict: "module.scibert_layer.embeddings.position_ids"

I trained my sequence labeling model in nn.DataParallel (torch version 1.7.0) but am trying to load it without the nn.DataParallel (torch version 1.9.0). Currently, I understand that not using nn.DataParallel caused the issue of RuntimeError: Error(s) in loading state_dict for DataParallel:, but could it also be because I am using different versions of torch or training and loading the model checkpoint?

The model is wrapped in nn.DataParallel using the following chunk of code.

    if exp_args.parallel == 'true':
        if torch.cuda.device_count() > 1:
            model = nn.DataParallel(model, device_ids = [0, 1, 2, 3])
            print("Using", len(model.device_ids), " GPUs!")
            print("Using", str(model.device_ids), " GPUs!")
        model.to(f'cuda:{model.device_ids[0]}')
    elif exp_args.parallel == 'false':
        model = nn.DataParallel(model, device_ids = [0])

This is my model.

How should I go ahead with correctly wrapping the checkpoint in nn.DataParallel or should I use the correct version of the torch that could fix this problem?

I will be grateful for any help or hint.


Solution

  • The problem was not caused by the DataParallel library, but rather the transformers library (notice that I used the SciBERT model from huggingface transformers library). The error was caused by using older versions of transformers and tokeniezrs. Upgrading the transformers version from 3.0.2 to 4.8.2 and tokeniezrs to 0.10.3
