Understanding the Pytorch TypeError in AdaptiveAvgPool3D

If you're working with Pytorch and deep learning, you may encounter a frustrating TypeError when utilizing the AdaptiveAvgPool3D function. The error message typically reads: TypeError: adaptive_avg_pool3d(): argument 'output_size' (position 2) must be tuple of ints, not list. This issue can halt your progress, but don’t worry! In this guide, we’ll break down the problem and provide you with a clear solution.

The Problem

You received this error when trying to apply the AdaptiveAvgPool3D method in your code. Let’s review the main points of confusion:

Output Size Argument: The function adaptive_avg_pool3d expects a specific data type for its output_size parameter.

Type Mismatch: The error indicates that a list was provided instead of a tuple of integers.

When debugging the situation, you might wonder why a list was passed and how Pytorch differentiates between a tuple of integers and a regular tuple with floats or other types.

Analyzing the Error Trace

To understand why the error occurs, you can look closely at the error trace provided:

This informs us that Pytorch is expecting a specific structure in the parameters you feed into it. Looking into the code snippet:

You can see that _list_with_default might be converting output_size into a list if certain conditions aren’t met, leading to this error.

The Root Cause: Type Error

The key factor resulting in this error was the type of values being passed to the AdaptiveAvgPool3D function. When computing the output_size, the values derived from division in Python are stored as floats, even when they appear to be whole numbers. As a result, the tuple created from these calculations was a tuple of floats instead of a tuple of integers.

Solution Breakdown

Here’s how to resolve this error:

Convert to Integers: When calculating the dimensions for output_size, ensure you convert them into integers. This can be done using the int() function on each dimension derived from your calculations.

Avoiding Implicit Float Conversion: Be mindful of how division works in Python. Always cast the results of division to integers where necessary.

By following these steps, you should be able to rectify the TypeError and utilize the AdaptiveAvgPool3D function successfully.

Conclusion

Encountering errors in deep learning frameworks like Pytorch is common, especially when dealing with data types. By taking careful note of expected parameter types, such as using tuples of integers instead of lists or tuples of floats, you can avoid these pitfalls.
