hello, i'm aware that this issue was already brought up and the suggestion was to downgrade to PyTorch 1.4 which i'm trying to avoid being on CUDA 11 what i find interesting though that cycleGAN training works just fine with the same setup (CUDA 11.1, PyTorch 1.8) and on the same dataset any suggestions how to debug are welcome

Got exactly the same problem on PyTorch 1.8 and Cuda 11.1 (trying to run default FastCUT train from example). Downgrading to PyTorch 1.4 and Cuda 9.2 doesn't help and leads to:

[benz725]

have the same error reported. however, my display card is A100 which is recommended to use CUDA version above 11.0. So I cannot downgrade the cuda version. how the author will sovle this problem.

[dashu233]

I solve this problem by replacing torch.randperm with np.random.permutation. It seems pytorch 1.8 uses a different method to produce random permutation for len>30000 which causes this bug.

this works ！ envs: pytorch 1.8 cuda11 thanks !!!

yes, it works. 'patch_id = torch.randperm(feat_reshape.shape[1], device=feats[0].device)' (models/networks.py, lines 565) patch_id = np.random.permutation(feat_reshape.shape[1])

Thank you!

[taesungp]

Thank you for the feedback and solution. I made the suggested change and pushed the code.

[ErikValle]

The issue has reappeared, although the previously mentioned patch has been applied. I used the environment.yml to set up a conda environment. Any suggestions?
