KeyError: 'data_time'

[cmcamdy]

When I choose IterBasedRunner in my schedule_cfg, this bug regular presence. And I have tried to follow https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmcv/pull/1252 to fix this, but it does not work. And I have check the file in mmseg/apis/train.py, EvalHook is already set LOW. Here is the trackback

Traceback (most recent call last):

Is there another way that might work？

From your hook level, the priority of evalhook is NORMAL. Please double-check your code for the training launch.

have you solved it?

I do not solved this problem, because I do not sure where the priority set I should modify. But I try to modify the schedule config file to avoid this situation, eg.

• modify the evaluation param interval from 4000 to 4001, in this way I can avoid simultaneous log(EvalHook& TextLoggerHook), and do not meet the bug "KeyError: 'data_time'" again, till now

  
  checkpoint_config = dict(by_epoch=False, interval=4000)
  evaluation = dict(interval=4000, metric='mIoU')

checkpoint_config = dict(by_epoch=False, interval=4000) evaluation = dict(interval=4001, metric='mIoU')

The level of eval hook is low, like

(VERY_HIGH   ) PolyLrUpdaterHook
(NORMAL      ) CheckpointHook
(LOW         ) DistEvalHook
(VERY_LOW    ) TextLoggerHook
 --------------------
before_train_epoch:
(VERY_HIGH   ) PolyLrUpdaterHook
(LOW         ) IterTimerHook
(LOW         ) DistEvalHook
(VERY_LOW    ) TextLoggerHook                     
 -------------------- 
before_train_iter:
(VERY_HIGH   ) PolyLrUpdaterHook                
(LOW         ) IterTimerHook                      
(LOW         ) DistEvalHook                       
 --------------------
after_train_iter:
(ABOVE_NORMAL) OptimizerHook                      
(NORMAL      ) CheckpointHook                     
(LOW         ) IterTimerHook                      
(LOW         ) DistEvalHook                       
(VERY_LOW    ) TextLoggerHook                     
 -------------------- 
after_train_epoch:
(NORMAL      ) CheckpointHook                     
(LOW         ) DistEvalHook                       
(VERY_LOW    ) TextLoggerHook                     
 -------------------- 
before_val_epoch:
(LOW         ) IterTimerHook                      
(VERY_LOW    ) TextLoggerHook                     
 -------------------- 
before_val_iter:
(LOW         ) IterTimerHook

Hi, I want to share the solution of this issue.

In mmseg/apis/train.py, plus priority='NORMAL'

so that

runner.register_hook(eval_hook(val_dataloader, save_best='mIoU', **eval_cfg), priority='NORMAL')
