| <p>The module API, defined in the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">module</span></code> (or simply <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">mod</span></code>) package, provides an |
| intermediate and high-level interface for performing computation with a |
| <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Symbol</span></code>. One can roughly think a module is a machine which can execute a |
| program defined by a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Symbol</span></code>.</p> |
| <p>The <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">module.Module</span></code> accepts a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Symbol</span></code> as the input.</p> |

| API to work with multiple modules (e.g. stochastic depth network).</p> |
| <p>A module has several states:</p> |
| <ul class="simple"> |
| <li>Initial state: Memory is not allocated yet, so the module is not ready for computation yet.</li> |
| <li>Binded: Shapes for inputs, outputs, and parameters are all known, memory has been allocated, |
| and the module is ready for computation.</li> |
| <li>Parameters are initialized: For modules with parameters, doing computation before |
| initializing the parameters might result in undefined outputs.</li> |
| <li>Optimizer is installed: An optimizer can be installed to a module. After this, the parameters |
| of the module can be updated according to the optimizer after gradients are computed |
| (forward-backward).</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>In order for a module to interact with others, it must be able to report the |
| following information in its initial state (before binding):</p> |
| <ul class="simple"> |

| Apache MXNet is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), <strong>sponsored by the <i>Apache Incubator</i></strong>. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF. |
