我正在运行 example Keras 的 kaggle_otto_nn.py 与 theano 的后端。当我设置cnmem=1时，出现如下错误:

HINT: Re-running with most Theano optimization disabled could give you a back-trace of when this node was created. This can be done with by setting the Theano flag 'optimizer=fast_compile'. If that does not work, Theano optimizations can be disabled with 'optimizer=None'.
HINT: Use the Theano flag 'exception_verbosity=high' for a debugprint and storage map footprint of this apply node.

似乎我无法将 cnmem 设置为非常大的值(大约 > 0.9)，因为它可能会导致 GPU 的内存溢出。当我设置 cnmem=0.9 时，它工作正常。根据this ，它

represents the start size (in MB or % of total GPU memory) of the memory pool.

和

This could cause memory fragmentation. So if you have a memory error while using cnmem, try to allocate more memory at the start or disable it. If you try this, report your result on :reftheano-dev.

但是如果我得到内存错误，我为什么要在开始时分配更多的内存？在我的情况下，在开始时分配更多的内存似乎会导致错误。

最佳答案

这是根据 this 解决的问题.

如 here 所示，cnmem实际上只允许赋值为float。

0: not enabled.

0 < N <= 1: use this fraction of the total GPU memory (clipped to .95 for driver memory).

> 1: use this number in megabytes (MB) of memory.

所以如果 cnmem=1.0 而不是 cnmem=1 它将起作用。

关于python - Theano:设备 gpu 初始化失败!原因=CNMEM_STATUS_OUT_OF_MEMORY，我们在Stack Overflow上找到一个类似的问题： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36099918/
