sandeep-krishnamurthy edited a comment on issue #9410: Training with the same parameters and seed gets significantly different results URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/9410#issuecomment-414489047 I see that weights initialized are different for each run. To reproduce running below initialization and viewing the weights yields different weights. Taking a look. ``` net.collect_params().initialize(mx.init.Xavier(magnitude=_xavier_magnitude), ctx=_ctx_list, force_reinit=True) net.collect_params()['resnetv21_conv0_weight'].data() ``` ``` [[[[ 1.89611092e-02 -1.63955986e-02 -1.63183715e-02 ..., -3.77857126e-03 -6.12869300e-03 -5.09519130e-04] [ 1.08407550e-02 -9.70634259e-03 -9.24655981e-03 ..., 7.88253173e-03 6.32613525e-03 5.58372587e-03] [ 1.66305602e-02 -3.11831571e-02 1.71868391e-02 ..., 1.45371221e-02 -2.16977187e-02 1.16131082e-03] ..., [ 8.47874209e-03 -1.09105334e-02 2.11738199e-02 ..., -7.37845525e-03 -2.88667846e-02 5.60590997e-03] ``` ``` net.collect_params().initialize(mx.init.Xavier(magnitude=_xavier_magnitude), ctx=_ctx_list, force_reinit=True) net.collect_params()['resnetv21_conv0_weight'].data() ``` ``` [[[[ 2.48766877e-02 -2.38284618e-02 2.93936618e-02 ..., -2.53108982e-02 7.16960430e-03 3.47280316e-02] [ -2.72196699e-02 -3.16641107e-03 -2.53057741e-02 ..., 2.93160938e-02 -2.12305132e-02 2.46996880e-02] [ -1.13223270e-02 2.28771083e-02 4.12302464e-03 ..., 3.26776169e-02 -7.82233290e-03 -1.84644368e-02] ..., [ -1.44652370e-02 4.28056717e-03 2.71088779e-02 ..., -2.38894150e-02 -3.23100463e-02 1.61664635e-02] [ -1.10932998e-02 2.97400393e-02 -2.46300120e-02 ..., 1.50449201e-03 2.24774107e-02 2.15285458e-02] [ -2.22768262e-03 -1.62917320e-02 2.92964391e-02 ..., -1.20998956e-02 -1.78815369e-02 -1.03423744e-03]] [[ 8.84681195e-03 2.98257805e-02 -1.20900013e-02 ..., 3.42116766e-02 2.25740559e-02 -1.45227127e-02] [ -1.05716512e-02 2.59525068e-02 -2.16498077e-02 ..., -2.18278579e-02 6.06125221e-03 -2.86707170e-02] [ 1.39616653e-02 7.52510503e-03 -2.09881701e-02 ..., ```
