Cant quite get how to shape data to LSTM models

username: Topsoil
cooked: <p>I am trying to implement some music generation LSTM, but cant figure out how to properly shape my data. In current configuration, when i try to train my model, it just crashes my colab notebook, instantly, and it doesnt look like it is because of ram shortage, colab doesnt tell me that</p>
<p>Some code:</p>
<p>Wav File dataset: takes a data file and samples a seq_length samples from it, chopping one sample off as a label, returning everything else as a time sequence of one feature</p>
<pre><code class="lang-auto">class WavFileDataset(Dataset):
  def __init__(self, file_path, seq_length):
    sequence = pydub.AudioSegment.from_file(file_path) #Load wav
    sequence = sequence.set_channels(1) #Stereo to mono
    sequence = np.asarray(sequence.get_array_of_samples()) #Get numpy ndarray
    self.length = len(sequence) - seq_length #Get how many sequences we can take from wav file
    self.seq_length = seq_length #Save length of sequence that we will sample later
    self.file_path = file_path #Save file path for later
  def __len__(self):
    return self.length #Return how many sequences we can take, not much here
  def __getitem__(self,idx):
    #Again, open and convert wav to ndarray
    sequence = pydub.AudioSegment.from_file(self.file_path)
    sequence = sequence.set_channels(1)
    sequence = np.asarray(sequence.get_array_of_samples())
    seq = sequence[idx:idx+self.seq_length] #Get a sequence of length = seq_length starting and idx
    seq = (seq / (1&lt;&lt;15)) #Normalize for int16 audio to -1...1 value range
    feature = seq[0:-1].astype('float32').reshape(1,-1) #get seq_length-1 samples as time sequence of feature
    label = seq[-1:None].astype('float32').reshape(1,-1) #get last item from sequence as a label
    #return everything
    return feature,label

<p>I have no idea what is wrong, and why everything crashes, please help</p>

cooked: <p>Could you try to isolate the error by running smaller code snippets?<br>
That would make debugging easier. <img src="https://discuss.pytorch.org/images/emoji/apple/slight_smile.png?v=9" title=":slight_smile:" class="emoji" alt=":slight_smile:"></p>

cooked: <p>I’ve isolated the error to training loop, i will run some tests, and also just rewrite everything, since my code right now is a Frankenstein of different code snippets from different tutorials</p>
