Exporting imported BERT model to ONNX
I have the following model:class BertClassifier(nn.Module):
    """
    Class defining the classifier model with a BERT encoder and a single fully connected classifier layer.
    """
    def __init__(self, dropout=0.5, num_labels=24):
        super(BertClassifier, self).__init__()

        self.bert = BertModel.from_pretrained('bert-base-uncased')
        self.dropout = nn.Dropout(dropout)
        self.linear = nn.Linear(768, num_labels)
        self.relu = nn.ReLU()
        self.best_score = 0

    def forward(self, input_id, mask):
        _, pooled_output = self.bert(input_ids=input_id, attention_mask=mask, return_dict=False)
        output = self.relu(self.linear(self.dropout(pooled_output)))

        return outputUsing these inputs:ex_string = "example string"
    inputs = tokenizer(ex_string,
                       padding='max_length', max_length=512, truncation=True,
                       return_tensors="pt")
    input_id = inputs['input_ids'].squeeze(1)
    mask = inputs['attention_mask']And I export the model to ONNX using:with torch.no_grad():
            input_names, output_names, dynamic_axes = infer_shapes(model, input_id, mask)
            torch.onnx.export(model=model,
                              args=(input_id, mask),
                              f='tryout.onnx',
                              input_names=input_names,
                              output_names=output_names,
                              dynamic_axes=dynamic_axes,
                              export_params=True,
                              do_constant_folding=False,
                              verbose=False)Which results in the following stack trace:/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/torch/onnx/utils.py:1294: UserWarning: Provided key input_ids for dynamic axes is not a valid input/output name

IndexError: index_select(): Index is supposed to be a vectorI can get the ONNX model to compile when I change thedo_constant_foldingflag toFalse, but obviously I don’t want to do that, as I’m trying to optimize the inference-time. Additionally, this results in the warning:::FunctionImpl::FunctionImpl(onnxruntime::Graph&, const NodeIndex&, const onnx::FunctionProto&, const std::unordered_map<std::basic_string<char>, const onnx::FunctionProto*>&, std::vector<std::unique_ptr<onnxruntime::Function> >&, const onnxruntime::logging::Logger&, bool) status.IsOK() was false. Resolve subgraph failed:Node (0xad87190) Op (Flatten) [ShapeInferenceError] Invalid value(-1) for attribute 'axis' . Execution will fail if ORT does not have a specialized kernel for this opCan anyone shed some light on the error or what I’m doing wrong? I know HuggingFace has a way to export BERT to onnx, so there must be some way to work around this from an imported BERT model, right?
