RuntimeError when attempting to use main_train.py out-of-the-box

[cdjameson]

Hello,

Thanks for providing this repository. It appears there is an issue with the model that is being caught by a version of PyTorch that is newer. I am happy to downgrade if that will fix it, but since the requirements doesn't list versions I do not know which version would work.

I've included the entire traceback here, including the torch.autograd.set_detect_anomaly(True) output, which points to line 60 in "models.py":

[W python_anomaly_mode.cpp:104] Warning: Error detected in CudnnConvolutionBackward. Traceback of forward call that caused the error:

RuntimeError: one of the variables needed for gradient computation has been modified by an inplace operation: [torch.cuda.FloatTensor [3, 32, 3, 3]] is at version 2; expected version 1 instead. Hint: the backtrace further above shows the operation that failed to compute its gradient. The variable in question was changed in there or anywhere later. Good luck!

pytorch 1.4 should solve this

[stymex]

I had the same issue. Installing pytorch 1.4 solved it, but I would reccomend installing 0.5.0 torchvision at the same time, overwise it still won't work.
conda install pytorch==1.4.0 torchvision==0.5.0 -c pytorch
