Thanks for your contribution! We are now assessing the impact of this change.
Here are some brief suggestions:

  • When the seed is not set in the args, it will randomly generate a seed and broadcast to all ranks. How about integrating these codes into the set_random_seed function in mmdet/apis/train.py?
  • When args.seed is None, the seed in cfg will set to None. The hyperparam cfg.seed is used in some other places such as the data loader sampler. I think the args.seed should also be set to the random_num in this PR.

Thanks for your reponse.

You can make changes on the PR based on your understanding. By the way, I think there is another thing needs to be considered:
The current codes only support gpu, do we need to support multi process cpu tasks?

Okay, we will take over this PR and do some modifications.

CPU DDP or DP training support is not in our plan.
