Progress Bar Variables from Validation Step
Greetings,
I can only show metrics of variables calculated on training step but can't show validation step metrics on the progress bar. How can show a metric in the validation step ? self.log(...., prog_bar=True) does not work.
Hi
It works fine for me. Have a look at this running example (latest PL version 1.2.6:
import os

import torch
from torch.utils.data import Dataset

from pytorch_lightning import LightningModule, Trainer


class RandomDataset(Dataset):

    def __init__(self, size, length):
        self.len = length
        self.data = torch.randn(length, size)

    def __getitem__(self, index):
        return self.data[index]

    def __len__(self):
        return self.len


class BoringModel(LightningModule):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.layer = torch.nn.Linear(32, 2)

    def forward(self, x):
        return self.layer(x)

    def loss(self, batch, prediction):
        # An arbitrary loss to have a loss that updates the model weights during `Trainer.fit` calls
        return torch.nn.functional.mse_loss(prediction, torch.ones_like(prediction))

    def step(self, x):
        x = self.layer(x)
        out = torch.nn.functional.mse_loss(x, torch.ones_like(x))
        return out

    def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
        output = self.layer(batch)
        loss = self.loss(batch, output)
        return {"loss": loss}

    def training_step_end(self, training_step_outputs):
        return training_step_outputs

    def training_epoch_end(self, outputs) -> None:
        torch.stack([x["loss"] for x in outputs]).mean()

    def validation_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
        output = self.layer(batch)
        loss = self.loss(batch, output)
        self.log("VALIDATION_STEP", loss, prog_bar=True)
        return {"x": loss}

    def validation_epoch_end(self, outputs) -> None:
        torch.stack([x['x'] for x in outputs]).mean()

    def test_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
        output = self.layer(batch)
        loss = self.loss(batch, output)
        return {"y": loss}

    def test_epoch_end(self, outputs) -> None:
        torch.stack([x["y"] for x in outputs]).mean()

    def configure_optimizers(self):
        optimizer = torch.optim.SGD(self.layer.parameters(), lr=0.1)
        lr_scheduler = torch.optim.lr_scheduler.StepLR(optimizer, step_size=1)
        return [optimizer], [lr_scheduler]


def test_run():

    train_data = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(RandomDataset(32, 64))
    val_data = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(RandomDataset(32, 64))

    # model
    model = BoringModel()
    trainer = Trainer(
        default_root_dir=os.getcwd(),
        limit_train_batches=1,
        limit_val_batches=1,
        max_epochs=3,
        weights_summary=None,
    )
    trainer.fit(model, train_data, val_data)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    test_run()
