RuntimeError: one of the variables needed for gradient computation has been modified by an inplace operation: [torch.cuda.LongTensor [64]] is at version 2; expected version 1 instead

cooked: <p>Hi, I meet a problem and I have searched this kind of posts and revise based on the suggestion such as +=, adding .clone() or inplace=False. However, it doesn’t work. I don’t know the reason for my problem.</p>
<p>My code is as follows.<br>
The initial part is simple</p>
<pre><code class="lang-auto">self.criterion = nn.CrossEntropyLoss(reduction='none')
self.optimizer = optim.SGD(target_model.parameters(), lr=0.01, momentum=0.9, weight_decay=5e-4)
</code></pre>
<p>First I want to get the output, label, loss, and last layer’s gradient from a model called target model.</p>
<pre><code class="lang-auto">def get_data(self, inputs, targets):
	outputs= self.target_model(inputs)
	losses = self.criterion(outputs, targets)

	gradient = []
	for loss in losses:
		loss.backward(retain_graph=True)

		gradient_list = reversed(list(self.target_model.named_parameters()))

		for name, parameter in gradient_list:
			if 'weight' in name:
				gradients = parameter.grad.clone()
				gradients = gradients.unsqueeze_(0)
				gradient.append(gradients.unsqueeze_(0))
				break

	gradient = torch.cat(gradient, dim=0)
	losses = losses.unsqueeze_(1)
	targets = targets.unsqueeze_(1).float()

	return outputs, gradient, losses, targets

<p>And use these to train another classifier.</p>
<pre><code class="lang-auto">
def train(self):
	self.attack_model.train()
	train_loss = 0
	correct = 0
	total = 0

	for inputs, targets, members in self.train_loader:
		inputs, targets, members = inputs.to(self.device), targets.to(self.device), members.to(self.device)
			
		outputs, gradient, losses, targets = self.get_data(inputs, targets)
			
		results = self.model(outputs, losses, gradient, targets)
		with torch.autograd.set_detect_anomaly(True):
			loss_2 = self.criterion(results, members).mean()
			self.optimizer.zero_grad()
			loss_2.backward()

<p>My model has five parts, the first four are used to get a result of each network and after that I concatenate them together and as an input to the fifth network to get result.</p>
