Load initial weights to first layer of the resnet manually

1

I want to change the weights of first layer of resnet model maually
the first layer is :
(conv1): Conv2d(3, 64, kernel_size=(7, 7), stride=(2, 2), padding=(3, 3), bias=False)
and the weights shape is:
[64, 3, 7, 7]

You could reassign a new nn.Parameter to your weights or just set the values depending on your use case.
Here is a small example how to assign new parameters:

with torch.no_grad():
    model.conv1.weight = nn.Parameter(torch.randn(64, 3, 7, 7))
    # or
    model.conv1.weight.copy_(torch.randn(64, 3, 7, 7))
