Size mismatch for fc.bias and fc.weigth

I used the transfer learning approach to train a model and saved the best-detected weights. In another script, I tried to use the weights for prediction. But I am getting errors as follows:

RuntimeError: Error(s) in loading state_dict for ResNet:
	size mismatch for fc.bias: copying a param of torch.Size([1000]) from checkpoint, where the shape is torch.Size([4]) in current model.
	size mismatch for fc.weight: copying a param of torch.Size([1000, 512]) from checkpoint, where the shape is torch.Size([4, 512]) in current model.

I have used the following code to predict the output:

checkpoint = torch.load("./models/custom_model13.model")
model = resnet18(pretrained=True)

model.load_state_dict(checkpoint)
model.eval()

def predict_image(image_path):
    transformation = transforms.Compose([
        transforms.RandomResizedCrop(224),
        transforms.RandomHorizontalFlip(),
        transforms.ToTensor(),
        transforms.Normalize([0.485, 0.456, 0.406], [0.229, 0.224, 0.225])
        ])
    image_tensor = transformation(image).float()
    image_tensor = image_tensor.unsqueeze_(0)

    if torch.cuda.is_available():
        image_tensor.cuda()

    input = Variable(image_tensor)
    output = model(input)

    index = output.data.numpy().argmax()
    return index

if __name__ == "main":
    imagefile = "image.png"
    imagepath = os.path.join(os.getcwd(),imagefile)
    prediction = predict_image(imagepath)
    print("Predicted Class: ",prediction)

Thw following code has been used for training

ata_dir = 'Dataset'
image_datasets = {x: datasets.ImageFolder(os.path.join(data_dir, x),
                                          data_transforms[x])

Here, you have updated the fc layer on resnet18.
Your saved model and loading models are different.

Code for prediction should be as follows:

checkpoint = torch.load("./models/custom_model13.model")
# Load model here
model = resnet18(pretrained=True)
# make the fc layer similar to the saved model
num_ftrs = model.fc.in_features
model.fc = nn.Linear(num_ftrs, 4)
# Now load the checkpoint
model.load_state_dict(checkpoint)
model.eval()

@bhushans23 Thank you for the reply, I figured out a solution. I got the problem was due to difference in architechture in training and inference codes. So in the inference code I changed,

model = resnet18(pretrained = True)

to

model = resnet18(num_classes = 4)

This solved the problem!

Thx! It works. LOLOLOL

model = resnet18(num_classes = 4)
