# Installation

Install from PyPi:

`pip3 install nfnets-pytorch`

or install the latest code using:

`pip3 install git+https://github.com/vballoli/nfnets-pytorch`
# Usage
## WSConv2d

Use `WSConv1d, WSConv2d, ScaledStdConv2d(timm)` and `WSConvTranspose2d` like any other `torch.nn.Conv2d` or `torch.nn.ConvTranspose2d` modules.

```python
import torch
from torch import nn
from nfnets import WSConv2d, WSConvTranspose2d, ScaledStdConv2d

conv = nn.Conv2d(3,6,3)
w_conv = WSConv2d(3,6,3)

conv_t = nn.ConvTranspose2d(3,6,3)
w_conv_t = WSConvTranspose2d(3,6,3)
```

## Generic AGC (recommended)
```python
import torch
from torch import nn, optim
from torchvision.models import resnet18

from nfnets import WSConv2d
from nfnets.agc import AGC # Needs testing

conv = nn.Conv2d(3,6,3)
w_conv = WSConv2d(3,6,3)

optim = optim.SGD(conv.parameters(), 1e-3)
optim_agc = AGC(conv.parameters(), optim) # Needs testing

# Ignore fc of a model while applying AGC.
model = resnet18()
optim = torch.optim.SGD(model.parameters(), 1e-3)
optim = AGC(model.parameters(), optim, model=model, ignore_agc=['fc'])
```
## SGD - Adaptive Gradient Clipping

Similarly, use `SGD_AGC` like `torch.optim.SGD`
```python
# The generic AGC is preferable since the paper recommends not applying AGC to the last fc layer.
import torch
from torch import nn, optim
from nfnets import WSConv2d, SGD_AGC

conv = nn.Conv2d(3,6,3)
w_conv = WSConv2d(3,6,3)

optim = optim.SGD(conv.parameters(), 1e-3)
optim_agc = SGD_AGC(conv.parameters(), 1e-3)
```

## Using it within any PyTorch model

`replace_conv` replaces the convolution in your model with the convolution class and replaces the batchnorm with identity. While the identity is not ideal, it shouldn't cause a major difference in the latency. 
```python
import torch
from torch import nn
from torchvision.models import resnet18

from nfnets import replace_conv, WSConv2d, ScaledStdConv2d

model = resnet18()
replace_conv(model, WSConv2d) # This repo's original implementation
replace_conv(model, ScaledStdConv2d) # From timm

"""
class YourCustomClass(nn.Conv2d):
  ...
replace_conv(model, YourCustomClass)
"""
```
