A bit greater than a yr in the past, in his lovely visitor publish, Nick Strayer confirmed learn how to classify a set of on a regular basis actions utilizing smartphone-recorded gyroscope and accelerometer knowledge. Accuracy was excellent, however Nick went on to examine classification outcomes extra carefully. Had been there actions extra liable to misclassification than others? And the way about these inaccurate outcomes: Did the community report them with equal, or much less confidence than people who had been appropriate?
Technically, after we converse of confidence in that method, we’re referring to the rating obtained for the “successful” class after softmax activation. If that successful rating is 0.9, we’d say “the community is certain that’s a gentoo penguin”; if it’s 0.2, we’d as a substitute conclude “to the community, neither possibility appeared becoming, however cheetah seemed finest.”
This use of “confidence” is convincing, but it surely has nothing to do with confidence – or credibility, or prediction, what have you ever – intervals. What we’d actually like to have the ability to do is put distributions over the community’s weights and make it Bayesian. Utilizing tfprobability’s variational Keras-compatible layers, that is one thing we truly can do.
Including uncertainty estimates to Keras fashions with tfprobability reveals learn how to use a variational dense layer to acquire estimates of epistemic uncertainty. On this publish, we modify the convnet utilized in Nick’s publish to be variational all through. Earlier than we begin, let’s rapidly summarize the duty.
The duty
To create the Smartphone-Primarily based Recognition of Human Actions and Postural Transitions Information Set (Reyes-Ortiz et al. 2016), the researchers had topics stroll, sit, stand, and transition from a kind of actions to a different. In the meantime, two forms of smartphone sensors had been used to file movement knowledge: Accelerometers measure linear acceleration in three dimensions, whereas gyroscopes are used to trace angular velocity across the coordinate axes. Listed here are the respective uncooked sensor knowledge for six forms of actions from Nick’s unique publish:
Similar to Nick, we’re going to zoom in on these six forms of exercise, and attempt to infer them from the sensor knowledge. Some knowledge wrangling is required to get the dataset right into a type we are able to work with; right here we’ll construct on Nick’s publish, and successfully begin from the info properly pre-processed and cut up up into coaching and take a look at units:

Coaching pipeline
The dataset in query is sufficiently small to slot in reminiscence – however yours may not be, so it may possibly’t damage to see some streaming in motion. Apart from, it’s in all probability secure to say that with TensorFlow 2.0, tfdatasets pipelines are the solution to feed knowledge to a mannequin.
As soon as the code listed within the appendix has run, the sensor knowledge is to be present in trainData$knowledge, a listing column containing knowledge.bodys the place every row corresponds to a degree in time and every column holds one of many measurements. Nonetheless, not all time sequence (recordings) are of the identical size; we thus observe the unique publish to pad all sequence to size pad_size (= 338). The anticipated form of coaching batches will then be (batch_size, pad_size, 6).
We initially create our coaching dataset:
train_x <- train_data$knowledge %>%
map(as.matrix) %>%
pad_sequences(maxlen = pad_size, dtype = "float32") %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
train_y <- train_data$exercise %>%
one_hot_classes() %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
train_dataset <- zip_datasets(train_x, train_y)
train_dataset<ZipDataset shapes: ((338, 6), (6,)), sorts: (tf.float64, tf.float64)>Then shuffle and batch it:
n_train <- nrow(train_data)
# the best potential batch dimension for this dataset
# chosen as a result of it yielded the perfect efficiency
# alternatively, experiment with e.g. completely different studying charges, ...
batch_size <- n_train
train_dataset <- train_dataset %>%
dataset_shuffle(n_train) %>%
dataset_batch(batch_size)
train_dataset<BatchDataset shapes: ((None, 338, 6), (None, 6)), sorts: (tf.float64, tf.float64)>Similar for the take a look at knowledge.
test_x <- test_data$knowledge %>%
map(as.matrix) %>%
pad_sequences(maxlen = pad_size, dtype = "float32") %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
test_y <- test_data$exercise %>%
one_hot_classes() %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
n_test <- nrow(test_data)
test_dataset <- zip_datasets(test_x, test_y) %>%
dataset_batch(n_test)Utilizing tfdatasets doesn’t imply we can not run a fast sanity examine on our knowledge:
first <- test_dataset %>%
reticulate::as_iterator() %>%
# get first batch (= complete take a look at set, in our case)
reticulate::iter_next() %>%
# predictors solely
.[[1]] %>%
# first merchandise in batch
.[1,,]
firsttf.Tensor(
[[ 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. ]
[ 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. ]
[ 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. ]
...
[ 1.00416672 0.2375 0.12916666 -0.40225476 -0.20463985 -0.14782938]
[ 1.04166663 0.26944447 0.12777779 -0.26755899 -0.02779437 -0.1441642 ]

form=(338, 6), dtype=float64)Now let’s construct the community.
A variational convnet
We construct on the simple convolutional structure from Nick’s publish, simply making minor modifications to kernel sizes and numbers of filters. We additionally throw out all dropout layers; no extra regularization is required on high of the priors utilized to the weights.
Observe the next in regards to the “Bayesified” community.
-
Every layer is variational in nature, the convolutional ones (layer_conv_1d_flipout) in addition to the dense layers (layer_dense_flipout).
-
With variational layers, we are able to specify the prior weight distribution in addition to the type of the posterior; right here the defaults are used, leading to a normal regular prior and a default mean-field posterior.
-
Likewise, the person might affect the divergence perform used to evaluate the mismatch between prior and posterior; on this case, we truly take some motion: We scale the (default) KL divergence by the variety of samples within the coaching set.
-
One last item to notice is the output layer. It’s a distribution layer, that’s, a layer wrapping a distribution – the place wrapping means: Coaching the community is enterprise as normal, however predictions are distributions, one for every knowledge level.
library(tfprobability)
num_classes <- 6
# scale the KL divergence by variety of coaching examples
n <- n_train %>% tf$forged(tf$float32)
kl_div <- perform(q, p, unused)
tfd_kl_divergence(q, p) / n
mannequin <- keras_model_sequential()
mannequin %>%
layer_conv_1d_flipout(
filters = 12,
kernel_size = 3,
activation = "relu",
kernel_divergence_fn = kl_div
) %>%
layer_conv_1d_flipout(
filters = 24,
kernel_size = 5,
activation = "relu",
kernel_divergence_fn = kl_div
) %>%
layer_conv_1d_flipout(
filters = 48,
kernel_size = 7,
activation = "relu",
kernel_divergence_fn = kl_div
) %>%
layer_global_average_pooling_1d() %>%
layer_dense_flipout(
models = 48,
activation = "relu",
kernel_divergence_fn = kl_div
) %>%
layer_dense_flipout(
num_classes,
kernel_divergence_fn = kl_div,
title = "dense_output"
) %>%
layer_one_hot_categorical(event_size = num_classes)We inform the community to attenuate the destructive log probability.
nll <- perform(y, mannequin) - (mannequin %>% tfd_log_prob(y))It will grow to be a part of the loss. The way in which we arrange this instance, this isn’t its most substantial half although. Right here, what dominates the loss is the sum of the KL divergences, added (routinely) to mannequin$losses.
In a setup like this, it’s fascinating to watch each elements of the loss individually. We are able to do that via two metrics:
# the KL a part of the loss
kl_part <- perform(y_true, y_pred) {
kl <- tf$reduce_sum(mannequin$losses)
kl
}
# the NLL half
nll_part <- perform(y_true, y_pred) {
cat_dist <- tfd_one_hot_categorical(logits = y_pred)
nll <- - (cat_dist %>% tfd_log_prob(y_true) %>% tf$reduce_mean())
nll
}We prepare considerably longer than Nick did within the unique publish, permitting for early stopping although.
mannequin %>% compile(
optimizer = "rmsprop",
loss = nll,
metrics = c("accuracy",
custom_metric("kl_part", kl_part),
custom_metric("nll_part", nll_part)),
experimental_run_tf_function = FALSE
)
train_history <- mannequin %>% match(
train_dataset,
epochs = 1000,
validation_data = test_dataset,
callbacks = checklist(
callback_early_stopping(persistence = 10)
)
)Whereas the general loss declines linearly (and doubtless would for a lot of extra epochs), this isn’t the case for classification accuracy or the NLL a part of the loss:
Ultimate accuracy shouldn’t be as excessive as within the non-variational setup, although nonetheless not unhealthy for a six-class drawback. We see that with none extra regularization, there may be little or no overfitting to the coaching knowledge.
Now how will we acquire predictions from this mannequin?
Probabilistic predictions
Although we received’t go into this right here, it’s good to know that we entry extra than simply the output distributions; by means of their kernel_posterior attribute, we are able to entry the hidden layers’ posterior weight distributions as effectively.
Given the small dimension of the take a look at set, we compute all predictions directly. The predictions are actually categorical distributions, one for every pattern within the batch:
test_data_all <- dataset_collect(test_dataset) %>% { .[[1]][[1]]}
one_shot_preds <- mannequin(test_data_all)
one_shot_predstfp.distributions.OneHotCategorical(
"sequential_one_hot_categorical_OneHotCategorical_OneHotCategorical",
batch_shape=[69], event_shape=[6], dtype=float32)We prefixed these predictions with one_shot to point their noisy nature: These are predictions obtained on a single cross by means of the community, all layer weights being sampled from their respective posteriors.
From the anticipated distributions, we calculate imply and commonplace deviation per (take a look at) pattern.
The usual deviations thus obtained might be stated to mirror the general predictive uncertainty. We are able to estimate one other type of uncertainty, referred to as epistemic, by making quite a few passes by means of the community after which, calculating – once more, per take a look at pattern – the usual deviations of the anticipated means.
Placing all of it collectively, we’ve got

Conclusion
We’ve proven learn how to construct, prepare, and procure predictions from a totally variational convnet. Evidently, there may be room for experimentation: Various layer implementations exist; a distinct prior might be specified; the divergence might be calculated in a different way; and the same old neural community hyperparameter tuning choices apply.
Then, there’s the query of penalties (or: resolution making). What’s going to occur in high-uncertainty circumstances, what even is a high-uncertainty case? Naturally, questions like these are out-of-scope for this publish, but of important significance in real-world functions.
Thanks for studying!
