I am very new to this pytorch and neural networks.I am stuck in training one model since last 1 week. My model paramters are not getting updated after each epoch. Also, ‘’‘list(model.paramteres()[-1].grad)’’’ returns ‘’‘None’’’.
This is the code I wrote.
 for epoch in range(10):
    running_loss = 0.0
    print(list(net.parameters())[6].grad )
    outputs = net(inputs.float())
    a=torch.max(outputs,1).indices
    a=a.float()
    labels=labels.float()
    print(list(net.parameters())[6].grad )

    loss = criterion(a,labels.squeeze(1))
  
    loss = torch.tensor(loss, requires_grad = True)
    print(list(net.parameters())[6].grad )
    optimizer.zero_grad()
    
    loss.backward()
    
    optimizer.step()
    print(list(net.parameters())[6].grad )        

print('Finished Training')

also, this is the optimizer I have used,
import torch.optim as optim
criterion = nn.BCELoss()
optimizer = optim.Adam(net.parameters(), lr=0.001,weight_decay=0.0001)
from torch.autograd import Variable

Basically, what I did is I tried to train the model on only one batch of batch size=16 in order to see if my weights are getting updated or not.And I found that my loss, and the weights all remain same for 100 iterations.I really can’t figure out why is this happening.
I also have another question as well. My dataset contains grayscale images.And I need to perform a binary classification on them. This is the model I have made.It takes as an input tensor of shape (N,1,64,64) where N is the batch_size.
