A bit greater than a 12 months in the past, in his stunning visitor put up, Nick Strayer confirmed easy methods to classify a set of on a regular basis actions utilizing smartphone-recorded gyroscope and accelerometer information. 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 have been right?
Technically, once we communicate of confidence in that method, we’re referring to the rating obtained for the “profitable” class after softmax activation. If that profitable rating is 0.9, we would 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 appeared greatest.”
This use of “confidence” is convincing, however 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. Utilizing tfprobability’s variational Keras-compatible layers, that is one thing we really can do.
Including uncertainty estimates to Keras fashions with tfprobability exhibits easy methods to use a variational dense layer to acquire estimates of epistemic uncertainty. On this put up, we modify the convnet utilized in Nick’s put up to be variational all through. Earlier than we begin, let’s shortly summarize the duty.
The duty
To create the Smartphone-Based mostly Recognition of Human Actions and Postural Transitions Knowledge Set (Reyes-Ortiz et al. 2016), the researchers had topics stroll, sit, stand, and transition from a type of actions to a different. In the meantime, two sorts of smartphone sensors have been used to document movement information: Accelerometers measure linear acceleration in three dimensions, whereas gyroscopes are used to trace angular velocity across the coordinate axes. Listed below are the respective uncooked sensor information for six sorts of actions from Nick’s unique put up:
Identical to Nick, we’re going to zoom in on these six sorts of exercise, and attempt to infer them from the sensor information. Some information wrangling is required to get the dataset right into a kind we are able to work with; right here we’ll construct on Nick’s put up, and successfully begin from the information properly pre-processed and cut up up into coaching and check units:
Observations: 289

Coaching pipeline
The dataset in query is sufficiently small to slot in reminiscence – however yours may not be, so it could’t damage to see some streaming in motion. Moreover, it’s in all probability protected to say that with TensorFlow 2.0, tfdatasets pipelines are the method to feed information to a mannequin.
As soon as the code listed within the appendix has run, the sensor information is to be present in trainData$information, an inventory column containing information.bodys the place every row corresponds to a degree in time and every column holds one of many measurements. Nonetheless, not all time collection (recordings) are of the identical size; we thus comply with the unique put up to pad all collection to size pad_size (= 338). The anticipated form of coaching batches will then be (batch_size, pad_size, 6).
We initially create our coaching dataset:
train_x <- train_data$information %>%
map(as.matrix) %>%
pad_sequences(maxlen = pad_size, dtype = "float32") %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
train_y <- train_data$exercise %>%
one_hot_classes() %>%
tensor_slices_dataset()
train_dataset <- zip_datasets(train_x, train_y)
train_dataset<ZipDataset shapes: ((338, 6), (6,)), sorts: (tf.float64, tf.float64)>Then shuffle and batch it:
n_train <- nrow(train_data)
# the very best potential batch measurement for this dataset
# chosen as a result of it yielded the most effective efficiency
# alternatively, experiment with e.g. totally different studying charges, ...
batch_size <- n_train
train_dataset <- train_dataset %>%
dataset_shuffle(n_train) %>%
dataset_batch(batch_size)
train_dataset<BatchDataset shapes: ((None, 338, 6), (None, 6)), sorts: (tf.float64, tf.float64)>Similar for the check information.
test_x <- test_data$information %>%
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 verify on our information:
first <- test_dataset %>%
reticulate::as_iterator() %>%
# get first batch (= complete 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 easy 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 further regularization is required on prime of the priors utilized to the weights.
Notice the next concerning 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 consumer might 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’s a distribution layer, that’s, a layer wrapping a distribution – the place wrapping means: Coaching the community is enterprise as ordinary, however predictions are distributions, one for every information 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 reduce the adverse log probability.
nll <- perform(y, mannequin) - (mannequin %>% tfd_log_prob(y))This can develop into a part of the loss. The best way 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 (mechanically) to mannequin$losses.
In a setup like this, it’s attention-grabbing to watch each elements of the loss individually. We are able to do that by the use of two metrics:
# the KL a part of the loss
kl_part <- perform(y_true, y_pred) {
kl <- tf$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 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(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:
Remaining 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 further regularization, there’s little or no overfitting to the coaching information.
Now how will we receive predictions from this mannequin?
Probabilistic predictions
Although we gained’t go into this right here, it’s good to know that we entry extra than simply the output distributions; by way of their kernel_posterior attribute, we are able to entry the hidden layers’ posterior weight distributions as properly.
Given the small measurement of the check set, we compute all predictions without delay. The predictions at the moment are 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 way of the community, all layer weights being sampled from their respective posteriors.
From the anticipated distributions, we calculate imply and customary deviation per (check) pattern.
The usual deviations thus obtained may very well be mentioned to replicate the general predictive uncertainty. We are able to estimate one other form of uncertainty, known as epistemic, by making numerous passes by way of the community after which, calculating – once more, per check pattern – the usual deviations of the anticipated means.
Placing all of it collectively, we have now

Conclusion
We’ve proven easy methods to construct, prepare, and procure predictions from a completely variational convnet. Evidently, there’s room for experimentation: Different layer implementations exist; a unique prior may very well be specified; the divergence may very well be calculated in another way; and the same old neural community hyperparameter tuning choices apply.
Then, there’s the query of penalties (or: determination making). What will 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 functions.
Thanks for studying!
