Torch Utils

pysgmcmc.torch_utils.get_name(object_: Any) → str

Get a string representation of the name of object_.

Defaults to object_.__name__ for most objects. For classes in module pysgmcmc.optimizers and pysgmcmc.models.losses this returns an abbreviated name identifying the loss or optimizer.

Parameters:object (typing.Any) – Any python object. Must have a __name__ attribute. Returns:name – String represenation of the name of object_. Return type:str

Examples

For most objects, this function simply returns their __name__ attribute:

>>> from torch.optim import Adam
>>> get_name(Adam) == Adam.__name__
True

If an object sets a name attribute, that is used instead:

>>> from pysgmcmc.models.losses import NegativeLogLikelihood
>>> get_name(NegativeLogLikelihood) == "NLL" != NegativeLogLikelihood.__name__
True
