Root Cause

Model state dict keys dont match saved checkpoint.

generic

Workarounds

  1. 88% success Use strict=False only after verifying which keys mismatch
  2. 90% success Map keys: rename keys in state_dict before loading

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Use strict=False for everything 75% fail

    Silently missing weights

  2. Save and load entire model with pickle 78% fail

    Version-sensitive, security risk
