pytorch modifying the input data to forward to make it suitable to my model

Here is what I want to do.
I have an individual data of shape (20,20,20) where 20 tensors of shape (1,20,20) will be used as an input for 20 separate CNN. Here's the code I have so far.
class MyModel(torch.nn.Module):
   def __init__(self, ...):
       ...
        self.features = nn.ModuleList([nn.Sequential(
            nn.Conv2d(1,10, kernel_size = 3, padding = 1),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Conv2d(10, 14, kernel_size=3, padding=1),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Conv2d(14, 18, kernel_size=3, padding=1),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Flatten(),
            nn.Linear(28*28*18, 256)
        ) for _ in range(20)])
        self.fc_module = nn.Sequential(
            nn.Linear(256*n_selected, cnn_output_dim),
            nn.Softmax(dim=n_classes)
        )
   
    def forward(self, input_list):
        concat_fusion = cat([cnn(x) for x,cnn in zip(input_list,self.features)], dim = 0)
        output = self.fc_module(concat_fusion)
        return output

The shape of the input_list in forward function is torch.Size([100, 20, 20, 20]), where 100 is the batch size.
However, there's an issue with
concat_fusion = cat([cnn(x) for x,cnn in zip(input_list,self.features)], dim = 0)

as it results in this error.
RuntimeError: Expected 4-dimensional input for 4-dimensional weight [10, 1, 3, 3], but got 3-dimensional input of size [20, 20, 20] instead

First off, I wonder why it expects me to give 4-dimensional weight [10,1,3,3]. I've seen
&quot;RuntimeError: Expected 4-dimensional input for 4-dimensional weight 32 3 3, but got 3-dimensional input of size [3, 224, 224] instead&quot;?
but I'm not sure where those specific numbers are coming from.

I have an input_list which is a batch of 100 data. I'm not sure how I can deal with individual data of shape (20,20,20) so that I can actually separate this into 20 pieces to use it as an independent input to 20 CNN.



why it expects me to give 4-dimensional weight [10,1,3,3].
Note the following log means the nn.Conv2d with kernel (10, 1, 3, 3) requiring a 4 dimensional input.
RuntimeError: Expected 4-dimensional input for 4-dimensional weight [10, 1, 3, 3]

How to separate input into 20 pieces along channels.
Iteration over input_list(100, 20, 20, 20) produces 100 tensors of shape (20, 20, 20).
If you want to split input along channel, try to slice input_list along second dimension.
concat_fusion = torch.cat([cnn(input_list[:, i:i+1]) for i, cnn in enumerate(self.features)], dim = 1)
