Top diff arguments do not match net outputs. 问题解读

caffe的pycaffe.py文件中有这样一段代码：

    if kwargs:
        if set(kwargs.keys()) != set(self.outputs):
            raise Exception('Top diff arguments do not match net outputs.')
        # Set top diffs according to defined shapes and make arrays single and
        # C-contiguous as Caffe expects.
        for top, diff in six.iteritems(kwargs):
            if diff.shape[0] != self.blobs[top].shape[0]:
                raise Exception('Diff is not batch sized')
            self.blobs[top].diff[...] = diff

    self._backward(start_ind, end_ind)

其中有一个错误声明：'Top diff arguments do not match net outputs.'

当运行代码出现这一错误时，大多数情况是因为定义caffe中prototxt文件对某一层的命名，不同于代码中对某一层的命名。

可以在错误声明之前加入两行代码：

 a = set(kwargs.keys())
 b = set(self.outputs)

看看kwargs字典的键值和self.outputs的命名是否相同，如不同，则修改prototxt文件中或代码中对某一层的命名，使其相同即可。
