<p>Ordinarily, “automatic mixed precision training” means training with

Autocasting automatically chooses the precision for GPU operations to improve performance
while maintaining accuracy.</p>

gradient scaling conveniently. Gradient scaling improves convergence for networks with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">float16</span></code>
gradients by minimizing gradient underflow, as explained <a class="reference internal" href="../amp.html#gradient-scaling"><span class="std std-ref">here</span></a>.</p>

<p>Each optimizer checks its gradients for infs/NaNs and makes an independent decision
whether or not to skip the step. This may result in one optimizer skipping the step
while the other one does not. Since step skipping occurs rarely (every several hundred iterations)
this should not impede convergence. If you observe poor convergence after adding gradient scaling
to a multiple-optimizer model, please report a bug.</p>

<p>If your network uses <a class="reference internal" href="extending.html#extending-autograd"><span class="std std-ref">custom autograd functions</span></a>
(subclasses of <a class="reference internal" href="../autograd.html#torch.autograd.Function" title="torch.autograd.Function"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">torch.autograd.Function</span></code></a>), changes are required for
autocast compatibility if any function</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>takes multiple floating-point Tensor inputs,</p></li>
<li><p>wraps any autocastable op (see the <a class="reference internal" href="../amp.html#autocast-op-reference"><span class="std std-ref">Autocast Op Reference</span></a>), or</p></li>
<li><p>requires a particular <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">dtype</span></code> (for example, if it wraps
<a class="reference external" href="https://pytorch.org/tutorials/advanced/cpp_extension.html">CUDA extensions</a>
that were only compiled for <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">dtype</span></code>).</p></li>
</ul>
<p>In all cases, if you’re importing the function and can’t alter its definition, a safe fallback
is to disable autocast and force execution in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">float32</span></code> ( or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">dtype</span></code>) at any points of use where errors occur:</p>

<p>If you’re the function’s author (or can alter its definition) a better solution is to use the
