在神经网络计算过程中,对后向传播的梯度进行校验,确保其计算无误。至于,前向传播,由于相对简单,所以,一般不会出错,在前向传播的基础上利用计算出来的代价 J 我们可以进行后向梯度的校验。
公式原理如下:
当 J(θ)=θx ,线性模型如下:
该模型的前向传播和后向传播的代码如下:
# GRADED FUNCTION: forward_propagation
def forward_propagation(x, theta):
"""
Implement the linear forward propagation (compute J) presented in Figure 1 (J(theta) = theta * x)
Arguments:
x -- a real-valued input
theta -- our parameter, a real number as well
Returns:
J -- the value of function J, computed using the formula J(theta) = theta * x
"""
### START CODE HERE ### (approx. 1 line)
J = theta * x
### END CODE HERE ###
return J
x, theta = 2, 4
J = forward_propagation(x, theta)
print ("J = " + str(J))
输出结果:
J = 8
由于 J(θ)=θx 所以 dtheta=∂J∂θ=x
# GRADED FUNCTION: backward_propagation
def backward_propagation(x, theta):
"""
Computes the derivative of J with respect to theta (see Figure 1).
Arguments:
x -- a real-valued input
theta -- our parameter, a real number as well
Returns:
dtheta -- the gradient of the cost with respect to theta
"""
### START CODE HERE ### (approx. 1 line)
dtheta = x
### END CODE HERE ###
return dtheta
x, theta = 2, 4
dtheta = backward_propagation(x, theta)
print ("dtheta = " + str(dtheta))
输出结果:
dtheta = 2
步骤如下:
计算梯度近似值 “gradapprox”:
进行反向传播,获取梯度值 “grad”
范数的计算可以用np.linalg.norm(...)
当difference 足够小(< 10−7 ),则可以视为梯度校验通过。
# GRADED FUNCTION: gradient_check
def gradient_check(x, theta, epsilon = 1e-7):
"""
Implement the backward propagation presented in Figure 1.
Arguments:
x -- a real-valued input
theta -- our parameter, a real number as well
epsilon -- tiny shift to the input to compute approximated gradient with formula(1)
Returns:
difference -- difference (2) between the approximated gradient and the backward propagation gradient
"""
# Compute gradapprox using left side of formula (1). epsilon is small enough, you don't need to worry about the limit.
### START CODE HERE ### (approx. 5 lines)
thetaplus = theta + epsilon # Step 1
thetaminus = theta - epsilon # Step 2
J_plus = forward_propagation(x, thetaplus) # Step 3

### END CODE HERE ###
if difference < 1e-7:
print ("The gradient is correct!")
else:
print ("The gradient is wrong!")
return difference
测试:
x, theta = 2, 4
difference = gradient_check(x, theta)
print("difference = " + str(difference))
运行结果如下:
The gradient is correct!
difference = 2.91933588329e-10
difference 明显小于阈值 10−7 ,校验通过。

明显存在梯度计算问题。将反向梯度计算的dW2和db1进行修改,重新运行:
There is a mistake in the backward propagation! difference = 1.18855520355e-07
虽然现实出现问题,但是different值已经很接近阈值了,此时,我们单独修改计算双边梯度之后的epsilon=1e-6,不修改判断的阈值。
输出:
Your backward propagation works perfectly fine! difference = 8.26588225515e-09
所以,要注意看difference值是否和阈值相距很大。本文为何就差那么一些,导致需要修改epsilon,可能是由于代价函数在局部存在毛刺,导致估算值和后向梯度计算结果,存在超于阈值的偏差。另外,relu的导数在0处有歧义,也可能导致此处的不够准确。
