AttributeError: module ‘torch’ has no attribute ‘permute’ error occurs because the “torch module does not have an attribute called permute in the older version of the PyTorch library.”
To fix the AttributeError: module ‘torch’ has no attribute ‘permute’ error, “upgrade the PyTorch library to the latest version using the pip install –upgrade torch torchvision command.”
To upgrade to a specific version of PyTorch, you can specify the version number in the command.
pip install --upgrade torch==1.7.0 torchvision==0.8.1If you are using Anaconda, use the conda package manager to upgrade PyTorch:
conda install pytorch torchvision -c pytorchLet’s write a simple PyTorch program in which “torch” has a “permute” attribute.
import torch
batch_size, length, dim = 32, 5, 200
inputs = torch.randn(batch_size, length, dim)
inputs = torch.permute(inputs, (1, 0, 2))
print(inputs)Output

If you are using the latest version of PyTorch, please check the spelling and capitalization of permute() function, and make sure that you have imported the correct module.
That’s it!
