A bit greater than a 12 months in the past, in his lovely visitor put up, Nick Strayer confirmed methods to classify a set of on a regular basis actions utilizing smartphone-recorded gyroscope and accelerometer knowledge. Accuracy was superb, however Nick went on to examine classification outcomes extra intently. Were there actions extra vulnerable to misclassification than others? And how about these misguided outcomes: Did the community report them with equal, or much less confidence than people who had been right?
Technically, once we communicate of confidence in that method, we’re referring to the rating obtained for the “winning” class after softmax activation. If that profitable rating is 0.9, we would say “the network is sure that’s a gentoo penguin”; if it’s 0.2, we’d as a substitute conclude “to the network, neither option seemed fitting, but cheetah looked best.”
This use of “confidence” is convincing, nevertheless it 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. Using tfprobability’s variational Keras-compatible layers, that is one thing we really can do.
Adding uncertainty estimates to Keras fashions with tfprobability exhibits methods to use a variational dense layer to acquire estimates of epistemic uncertainty. In this put up, we modify the convnet utilized in Nick’s put up to be variational all through. Before we begin, let’s shortly summarize the duty.
The activity
To create the Smartphone-Based Recognition of Human Activities and Postural Transitions Data Set (Reyes-Ortiz et al. 2016), the researchers had topics stroll, sit, stand, and transition from a kind of actions to a different. Meanwhile, two varieties 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. Here are the respective uncooked sensor knowledge for six varieties of actions from Nick’s unique put up:
Just like Nick, we’re going to zoom in on these six varieties 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 put up, and successfully begin from the info properly pre-processed and break up up into coaching and check units:
Observations: 289

Training pipeline
The dataset in query is sufficiently small to slot in reminiscence – however yours won’t be, so it will possibly’t damage to see some streaming in motion. Besides, it’s in all probability protected to say that with TensorCirculation 2.0, tfdatasets pipelines are the approach to feed knowledge to a mannequin.
Once the code listed within the appendix has run, the sensor knowledge is to be present in practiceData$knowledge, a listing column containing knowledge.bodys the place every row corresponds to a degree in time and every column holds one of many measurements. However, not all time collection (recordings) are of the identical size; we thus comply with the unique put up to pad all collection to size pad_size (= 338). The anticipated form of coaching batches will then be (batch_size, pad_size, 6).
We initially create our coaching dataset:
train_x <- train_data$knowledge %>%
map(as.matrix) %>%
pad_sequences(maxlen = pad_size, dtype = "float32") %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
train_y <- train_data$exercise %>%
one_hot_classes() %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
train_dataset <- zip_datasets(train_x, train_y)
train_dataset<ZipDataset shapes: ((338, 6), (6,)), sorts: (tf.float64, tf.float64)>Then shuffle and batch it:
n_train <- nrow(train_data)
# the best potential batch measurement for this dataset
# chosen as a result of it yielded one of the best efficiency
# alternatively, experiment with e.g. totally different studying charges, ...
batch_size <- n_train
train_dataset <- train_dataset %>%
dataset_shuffle(n_train) %>%
dataset_batch(batch_size)
train_dataset<BatchDataset shapes: ((None, 338, 6), (None, 6)), sorts: (tf.float64, tf.float64)>Same for the check knowledge.
test_x <- test_data$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)Using tfdatasets doesn’t imply we can not run a fast sanity test on our knowledge:
first <- test_dataset %>%
reticulate::as_iterator() %>%
# get first batch (= entire check 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 put up, 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.
Note the next in regards to the “Bayesified” community.
-
Each 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 regular regular prior and a default mean-field posterior.
-
Likewise, the person could affect the divergence perform used to evaluate the mismatch between prior and posterior; on this case, we really take some motion: We scale the (default) KL divergence by the variety of samples within the coaching set.
-
One final thing to notice is the output layer. It is a distribution layer, that’s, a layer wrapping a distribution – the place wrapping means: Training the community is enterprise as common, 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,
identify = "dense_output"
) %>%
layer_one_hot_categorical(event_size = num_classes)We inform the community to attenuate the adverse log probability.
nll <- perform(y, mannequin) - (mannequin %>% tfd_log_prob(y))This will develop into a part of the loss. The approach we arrange this instance, this isn’t its most substantial half although. Here, what dominates the loss is the sum of the KL divergences, added (mechanically) to mannequin$losses.
In a setup like this, it’s attention-grabbing to watch each components of the loss individually. We can do that via two metrics:
# the KL a part of the loss
kl_part <- perform(y_true, y_pred) {
kl <- tf$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 practice considerably longer than Nick did within the unique put up, 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 = listing(
callback_early_stopping(endurance = 10)
)
)While the general loss declines linearly (and possibly would for a lot of extra epochs), this isn’t the case for classification accuracy or the NLL a part of the loss:
Final accuracy will not 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’s little or no overfitting to the coaching knowledge.
Now how will we get hold of predictions from this mannequin?
Probabilistic predictions
Though we received’t go into this right here, it’s good to know that we entry extra than simply the output distributions; via their kernel_posterior attribute, we are able to entry the hidden layers’ posterior weight distributions as effectively.
Given the small measurement of the check 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 go via the community, all layer weights being sampled from their respective posteriors.
From the expected distributions, we calculate imply and customary deviation per (check) pattern.
The customary deviations thus obtained may very well be mentioned to replicate the general predictive uncertainty. We can estimate one other type of uncertainty, known as epistemic, by making quite a few passes via the community after which, calculating – once more, per check pattern – the usual deviations of the expected means.
Putting all of it collectively, now we have

Conclusion
We’ve proven methods to construct, practice, and acquire predictions from a completely variational convnet. Evidently, there’s room for experimentation: Alternative layer implementations exist; a special prior may very well be specified; the divergence may very well be calculated in another way; and the standard neural community hyperparameter tuning choices apply.
Then, there’s the query of penalties (or: resolution making). What goes to occur in high-uncertainty instances, what even is a high-uncertainty case? Naturally, questions like these are out-of-scope for this put up, but of important significance in real-world purposes.
Thanks for studying!
