QUESTION
I am new to PyTorch/Deep learning and I am trying to understand the use of the following line to define a convolutional layer:
self.layer1 = nn.Sequential(nn.Conv1d(input_dim, n_conv_filters, kernel_size=7, padding=0), nn.ReLU(), nn.MaxPool1d(3))
I understand that that it is creating a 1d convolutional layer to the network with max pooling 3 wide. However, I don't understand the function of the sequential module or RelU. How do these function in creating a layer?
For reference, the rest of the code can be found here: https://github.com/ArdalanM/nlp-benchmarks/blob/master/src/cnn/net.py

Answered 2020-Jun-19 at 11:43As per the description provided it seems you are in the process of developing a convolutional architecture for a problem (More likely a Computer Vision one as CNNs are usually targeted for solving CV problems).
Now talking about the code by using Sequential module you are telling the PyTorch that you are developing an architecture that will work in a sequential manner and by specifying ReLU you are bringing the concept of Non-Linearity in the picture (ReLU is one of the widely used activation functions in the Deep learning framework). Non-Linearity helps CNNs to generalize to complex decision boundaries and ultimately helps them to perform better.
PS: I recommend reviewing the https://towardsdatascience.com/convolutional-neural-network-for-image-classification-with-implementation-on-python-using-pytorch-7b88342c9ca9 for getting better idea from a coder perspective.

Install nlp-benchmarks
You can use nlp-benchmarks like any standard Python library. You will need to make sure that you have a development environment consisting of a Python distribution including header files, a compiler, pip, and git installed. Make sure that your pip, setuptools, and wheel are up to date. When using pip it is generally recommended to install packages in a virtual environment to avoid changes to the system.
