torch.optim.Optimizer.register_load_state_dict_pre_hook

Optimizer.register_load_state_dict_pre_hook(hook, prepend=False)

Register a load_state_dict pre-hook which will be called before load_state_dict() is called. It should have the following signature:

hook(optimizer, state_dict) -> state_dict or None

The optimizer argument is the optimizer instance being used and the state_dict argument is a shallow copy of the state_dict the user passed in to load_state_dict. The hook may modify the state_dict inplace or optionally return a new one. If a state_dict is returned, it will be used to be loaded into the optimizer.

The hook will be called with argument self and state_dict before calling load_state_dict on self. The registered hook can be used to perform pre-processing before the load_state_dict call is made.

Parameters

• hook (Callable) – The user defined hook to be registered.

• prepend (bool) – If True, the provided pre hook will be fired before all the already registered pre-hooks on load_state_dict. Otherwise, the provided hook will be fired after all the already registered pre-hooks. (default: False)

Returns

a handle that can be used to remove the added hook by calling handle.remove()

Return type

torch.utils.hooks.RemoveableHandle
