使用方式

PyTorch:支持指定维度对元素进行展开,默认保留第0维,对其余维度的元素进行展开;需要同torch.nn.Sequential一起使用。

MindSpore:仅支持保留第0维元素,对其余维度的元素进行展开。

代码示例

import mindspore
from mindspore import Tensor, nn
import torch
import numpy as np

# In MindSpore, only the 0th dimension will be reserved and the rest will be flattened.
input_tensor = Tensor(np.ones(shape=[1, 2, 3, 4]), mindspore.float32)
flatten = nn.Flatten()
output = flatten(input_tensor)
print(output.shape)
# Out:
# (1, 24)

# In torch, the dimension to reserve can be specified and the rest will be flattened.
# Different from torch.flatten, you should pass it as parameter into torch.nn.Sequential.
input_tensor = torch.Tensor(np.ones(shape=[1, 2, 3, 4]))
flatten1 = torch.nn.Sequential(torch.nn.Flatten(start_dim=1))
output1 = flatten1(input_tensor)
print(output1.shape)
# Out:
# torch.Size([1, 24])

input_tensor = torch.Tensor(np.ones(shape=[1, 2, 3, 4]))
flatten2 = torch.nn.Sequential(torch.nn.Flatten(start_dim=2))
output2 = flatten2(input_tensor)
print(output2.shape)
# Out:
# torch.Size([1, 2, 12])
