Problems initializing model in pytorch
I can't initialize my model in pytorch and get:

Someone asked for code. It is given below

What should I do? StackOverflow asked for more details. I'm trying to classify texts using word embeddings but problem lies in last line. I am working in google colab. Also when I created some models in other code blocks, I've got no problems

The problem is in your init function. When you create title_conv, insted of passing the activation object previously created,  your are calling the activation without arguments. You can fix it by changing that part of code with this:
self.title_conv = torch.nn.Sequential(
                    torch.nn.Conv2d(in_channels=1,out_channels=1,kernel_size=3,stride=3),
                    self.activation, # Notice I have removed ()
                    torch.nn.Conv2d(in_channels=1,out_channels=1,kernel_size=2,stride=2),
                    self.activation, # Notice I have removed ()
                    torch.nn.Conv2d(in_channels=1,out_channels=1,kernel_size=2,stride=2)
                )
