[GitHub] [incubator-mxnet] matteosal opened a new issue #16037: LSTM with
MKL-DNN produces wrong output after weights are changed
matteosal opened a new issue #16037: LSTM with MKL-DNN produces wrong output after weights are changed
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/16037
## Description
1) Create an RNN op with `mode='lstm'` and bind it
2) Run a forward pass
3) Change the NDArray holding the RNN parameters
4) Run a forward pass again
The output doesn't change, unless the second forward pass is performed in training mode (`is_train=True`). Setting `MXNET_MKLDNN_ENABLED=0` doesn't fix the issue, but using a build without MKL-DNN does.
This severly impacts training with a validation set, because evaluating the performance on the validation set is typically performed with `is_train=False` after several updates of the weights. In this case, validation shows no improvement because the output of the layer is stuck at the very first training iteration.

## Minimum reproducible example
```
import mxnet as mx
sym = mx.sym.RNN(mode='lstm', num_layers=1, state_outputs=False, state_size=1, name='rnn')
ex = sym.bind(mx.cpu(),
{
'rnn_data': mx.ndarray.random.uniform(low=-1, high=1, shape=(10, 128, 5)),
'rnn_parameters': mx.ndarray.random.uniform(low=-1, high=1, shape=(32)),
'rnn_state': mx.ndarray.zeros(shape=(1, 128, 1)),
'rnn_state_cell': mx.ndarray.zeros(shape=(1, 128, 1)),
}
)
print('---- Output in training mode:')
ex.forward(is_train=True)
print(ex.output_dict['rnn_output'].sum().asnumpy())
print('\n---- Output in test mode:')
ex.forward(is_train=False)
print(ex.output_dict['rnn_output'].sum().asnumpy())
ex.copy_params_from(
{
'rnn_data': ex.arg_dict['rnn_data'],
'rnn_parameters': mx.ndarray.random.uniform(low=-1, high=1, shape=(32)),
'rnn_state': ex.arg_dict['rnn_state'],
'rnn_state_cell': ex.arg_dict['rnn_state_cell'],
}
)
print('\n---- Output in training mode after changing weights:')
ex.forward(is_train=True)
print(ex.output_dict['rnn_output'].sum().asnumpy())
print('\n---- Output in test mode after changing weights:')
ex.forward(is_train=False)
print(ex.output_dict['rnn_output'].sum().asnumpy())
```
When using a build with MKL-DNN, this script print something like this:
```
---- Output in training mode:
[-112.02175]
---- Output in test mode:
[-112.02175]
---- Output in training mode after changing weights:
[-362.91537]
---- Output in test mode after changing weights:
[-112.02175]
```
Which shows that the output doesn't change after changing the weights unless the forward pass is performed in training mode. Setting `MXNET_MKLDNN_ENABLED=0` doesn't fix the issue, but using a build without MKL-DNN does.
