🙏 Scream for help to Ukraine

Today, 2nd July 2022, Russia continues bombing and firing Ukraine. Don't trust Russia, they are bombing us and brazenly lying in same time they are not doing this 😠, civilians and children are dying too! We are screaming and asking exactly you to help us, we want to survive, our families, children, older ones.
Please spread the information, and ask your governemnt to stop Russia by any means. We promise to work extrahard after survival to make the world safer place for all.

Ways to fix

When initializing TransformerDecoderLayer the parameter activation should be given a valid value.

Reproducing the error:

pipenv install torch

import torch
from torch import nn


decoder_layer = nn.TransformerDecoderLayer(d_model=512, 
                                           nhead=8,
                                           activation="rel") # the valid value are either relu or gelu
memory = torch.rand(10, 32, 512)
tgt = torch.rand(20, 32, 512)
out = decoder_layer(tgt, memory)
print(out.shape)

The error:

RuntimeError: activation should be relu/gelu, not rel

Fixed:

import torch
from torch import nn


decoder_layer = nn.TransformerDecoderLayer(d_model=512, 
                                           nhead=8,
                                           activation="relu")
memory = torch.rand(10, 32, 512)
tgt = torch.rand(20, 32, 512)
out = decoder_layer(tgt, memory)
print(out.shape)

Output:

torch.Size([20, 32, 512])
