clear_session(free_memory=True)

Resets all state generated by synalinks.

synalinks manages a global state, which it uses to implement the Functional model-building API and to uniquify autogenerated modules names.

If you are creating many models in a loop, this global state will consume an increasing amount of memory over time, and you may want to clear it. Calling clear_session() releases the global state: this helps avoid clutter from old programs and modules, especially when memory is limited.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
free_memory	bool	Whether to call Python garbage collection. It's usually a good practice to call it to make sure memory used by deleted objects is immediately freed. However, it may take a few seconds to execute, so when using clear_session() in a short loop, you may want to skip it.	True
