RuntimeError: element 0 of variables does not require grad and does not have a grad_fn

[taeheej]

In hessian.py
When I tried to run the following code,
Hv = hessian_vector_product(gradsH, params, v)

The error comes out.
Is there any idea how to resolve this issue?

[petrgeiger-incieve]

Instead of loss.backward(create_graph=True), which is called before hessian_vector_product use torch.autograd.grad(...). I am using Pytorch 1.10.0 and it works. (Also dont forget to filter out unused parameters-grads)

I can confirm that the workaround suggested by @petrgeiger-incieve seems to be working on my end. I am using PyTorch 1.12 btw.
