<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">Tracing vs Scripting</a><a class="headerlink" href="#tracing-vs-scripting" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>The ONNX exporter can be both <em>trace-based</em> and <em>script-based</em> exporter.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><em>trace-based</em> means that it operates by executing your model once, and exporting the operators which
were actually run during this run. This means that if your model is
dynamic, e.g., changes behavior depending on input data, the export
won’t be accurate. Similarly, a trace is likely to be valid only
for a specific input size (which is one reason why we require explicit inputs
on tracing.) We recommend examining the model trace and making sure
the traced operators look reasonable. If your model contains control flows like
for loops and if conditions, <em>trace-based</em> exporter will unroll the loops and if conditions,
exporting a static graph that is exactly the same as this run. If you want
to export your model with dynamic control flows, you will need to use the <em>script-based</em> exporter.</p></li>
<li><p><em>script-based</em> means that the model you are trying to export is a <a class="reference external" href="../jit.html">ScriptModule</a>.
<cite>ScriptModule</cite> is the core data structure in <cite>TorchScript</cite>, and <cite>TorchScript</cite> is a subset of Python language,
that creates serializable and optimizable models from PyTorch code.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>We allow mixing tracing and scripting. You can compose tracing and scripting to suit the particular requirements
of a part of a model. Checkout this example:</p>

<li><p>PyTorch and ONNX backends(Caffe2, ONNXRuntime, etc) often have implementations of operators with some
numeric differences. Depending on model structure, these differences
may be negligible, but they can also cause major divergences in behavior
(especially on untrained models.) We allow Caffe2 to call directly to Torch implementations of operators, to
help you smooth over these differences when precision is important,
and to also document these differences.</p></li>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id6">Adding support for operators</a><a class="headerlink" href="#adding-support-for-operators" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Adding export support for operators is an <em>advance usage</em>.
To achieve this, developers need to touch the source code of PyTorch.
Please follow the <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch#from-source">instructions</a>
for installing PyTorch from source.
If the wanted operator is standardized in ONNX, it should be easy to add
support for exporting such operator (adding a symbolic function for the operator).
To confirm whether the operator is standardized or not, please check the
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/onnx/onnx/blob/master/docs/Operators.md">ONNX operator list</a>.</p>
<div class="section" id="aten-operators">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id7">ATen operators</a><a class="headerlink" href="#aten-operators" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>If the operator is an ATen operator, which means you can find the declaration
of the function in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">torch/csrc/autograd/generated/VariableType.h</span></code>
(available in generated code in PyTorch install dir), you should add the symbolic
function in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">torch/onnx/symbolic_opset<version>.py</span></code> and follow the instructions listed as below:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Define the symbolic function in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">torch/onnx/symbolic_opset<version>.py</span></code>, for example
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/master/torch/onnx/symbolic_opset9.py">torch/onnx/symbolic_opset9.py</a>.
Make sure the function has the same name as the ATen operator/function
defined in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">VariableType.h</span></code>.</p></li>
<li><p>The first parameter is always the exported ONNX graph.
Parameter names must EXACTLY match the names in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">VariableType.h</span></code>,
because dispatch is done with keyword arguments.</p></li>
<li><p>Parameter ordering does NOT necessarily match what is in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">VariableType.h</span></code>,
tensors (inputs) are always first, then non-tensor arguments.</p></li>
<li><p>In the symbolic function, if the operator is already standardized in ONNX,
we only need to create a node to represent the ONNX operator in the graph.</p></li>
<li><p>If the input argument is a tensor, but ONNX asks for a scalar, we have to
explicitly do the conversion. The helper function <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">_scalar</span></code> can convert a
scalar tensor into a python scalar, and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">_if_scalar_type_as</span></code> can turn a
Python scalar into a PyTorch tensor.</p></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="non-aten-operators">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id8">Non-ATen operators</a><a class="headerlink" href="#non-aten-operators" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>If the operator is a non-ATen operator, the symbolic function has to be
added in the corresponding PyTorch Function class. Please read the following
instructions:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Create a symbolic function named <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">symbolic</span></code> in the corresponding Function class.</p></li>
<li><p>The first parameter is always the exported ONNX graph.</p></li>
<li><p>Parameter names except the first must EXACTLY match the names in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">forward</span></code>.</p></li>
<li><p>The output tuple size must match the outputs of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">forward</span></code>.</p></li>
<li><p>In the symbolic function, if the operator is already standardized in ONNX,
we just need to create a node to represent the ONNX operator in the graph.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Symbolic functions should be implemented in Python. All of these functions interact
with Python methods which are implemented via C++-Python bindings,
but intuitively the interface they provide looks like this:</p>

<p>The ONNX graph C++ definition is in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">torch/csrc/jit/ir.h</span></code>.</p>
<p>Here is an example of handling missing symbolic function for <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">elu</span></code> operator.
We try to export the model and see the error message as below:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="ne">UserWarning</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="n">ONNX</span> <span class="n">export</span> <span class="n">failed</span> <span class="n">on</span> <span class="n">elu</span> <span class="n">because</span> <span class="n">torch</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">onnx</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">symbolic_opset9</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">elu</span> <span class="n">does</span> <span class="ow">not</span> <span class="n">exist</span>

</div>
<p>The export fails because PyTorch does not support exporting <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">elu</span></code> operator.
We find <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">virtual</span> <span class="pre">Tensor</span> <span class="pre">elu(const</span> <span class="pre">Tensor</span> <span class="pre">&</span> <span class="pre">input,</span> <span class="pre">Scalar</span> <span class="pre">alpha,</span> <span class="pre">bool</span> <span class="pre">inplace)</span> <span class="pre">const</span> <span class="pre">override;</span></code>
in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">VariableType.h</span></code>. This means <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">elu</span></code> is an ATen operator.
We check the <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/onnx/onnx/blob/master/docs/Operators.md">ONNX operator list</a>,
and confirm that <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Elu</span></code> is standardized in ONNX.
We add the following lines to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">symbolic_opset9.py</span></code>:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">elu</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">g</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="nb">input</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">alpha</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">inplace</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="kc">False</span><span class="p">):</span>

</div>
<p>Now PyTorch is able to export <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">elu</span></code> operator.</p>

<p>Depending on the custom operator, you can export it as one or a combination of existing ONNX ops.
You can also export it as a custom op in ONNX as well. In that case, you will need to extend the backend of your choice
with matching custom ops implementation, e.g. <a class="reference external" href="https://caffe2.ai/docs/custom-operators.html">Caffe2 custom ops</a>,
