Hi so to bring that topic up another time:
When trying to display the computational graph using tensorboard this is not possible if I have  a  class inheriting from nn.Module without a forward method. But if i impelment the forward method the graph can be displayed. Do you know why this is the case?
Does it not build up the computational graph correctly without a forward method? Or do you just need these hooks from the forward method to properly display the graph?
