可能很多tensorflow的老版本玩家没见过这个东西,slim这个模块是在16年新推出的,其主要目的是来做所谓的“代码瘦身”。
但事实上它已经成为我比较喜欢,甚至是比较常用的模块,github上面大部分tensorflow的工程都会涉及到它,不得不说,撇开Keras,TensorLayer,tfLearn这些个高级库不谈,光用tensorflow能不能写出简洁的代码?当然行,有slim就够了!
惟一的缺点是slim这玩意的中文的文档几乎绝迹。所以国内还是Keras,tensorLayer这些官方文档比较完备的高级库的天下。
slim被放在tensorflow.contrib这个库下面,导入的方法如下:
import tensorflow.contrib.slim as slim
这样我们就可以使用slim了,既然说到了,先来扒一扒tensorflow.contrib这个库,tensorflow官方对它的描述是:此目录中的任何代码未经官方支持,可能会随时更改或删除。每个目录下都有指定的所有者。它旨在包含额外功能和贡献,最终会合并到核心TensorFlow中,但其接口可能仍然会发生变化,或者需要进行一些测试,看是否可以获得更广泛的接受。所以slim依然不属于原生tensorflow。
那么什么是slim?slim到底有什么用?
slim是一个使构建,训练,评估神经网络变得简单的库。它可以消除原生tensorflow里面很多重复的模板性的代码,让代码更紧凑,更具备可读性。另外slim提供了很多计算机视觉方面的著名模型(VGG, AlexNet等),我们不仅可以直接使用,甚至能以各种方式进行扩展。
slim的子模块及功能介绍:
arg_scope: provides a new scope named arg_scope that allows a user to define default arguments for specific operations within that scope.
除了基本的namescope,variabelscope外,又加了argscope,它是用来控制每一层的默认超参数的。(后面会详细说)
data: contains TF-slim's dataset definition, data providers, parallel_reader, and decoding utilities.
貌似slim里面还有一套自己的数据定义,这个跳过,我们用的不多。
evaluation: contains routines for evaluating models.
评估模型的一些方法,用的也不多
layers: contains high level layers for building models using tensorflow.
这个比较重要,slim的核心和精髓,一些复杂层的定义
learning: contains routines for training models.
一些训练规则
losses: contains commonly used loss functions.
一些loss
metrics: contains popular evaluation metrics.
评估模型的度量标准
nets: contains popular network definitions such as VGG and AlexNet models.
包含一些经典网络,VGG等,用的也比较多
queues: provides a context manager for easily and safely starting and closing QueueRunners.
文本队列管理,比较有用。
regularizers: contains weight regularizers.
包含一些正则规则
variables: provides convenience wrappers for variable creation and manipulation.
这个比较有用,我很喜欢slim管理变量的机制
具体子库就这么多拉,接下来干货时间!
slim中定义一个变量的示例:
# Model Variables
weights = slim.model_variable('weights',
shape=[10, 10, 3 , 3],
initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.1),
regularizer=slim.l2_regularizer(0.05),
device='/CPU:0')
model_variables = slim.get_model_variables()
# Regular variables
my_var = slim.variable('my_var',
shape=[20, 1],
initializer=tf.zeros_initializer())
regular_variables_and_model_variables = slim.get_variables()
slim中实现一个层:
首先让我们看看tensorflow怎么实现一个层,例如卷积层:
input = ...
with tf.name_scope('conv1_1') as scope:
kernel = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal([3, 3, 64, 128], dtype=tf.float32,
stddev=1e-1), name='weights')
conv = tf.nn.conv2d(input, kernel, [1, 1, 1, 1], padding='SAME')
biases = tf.Variable(tf.constant(0.0, shape=[128], dtype=tf.float32),
trainable=True, name='biases')
bias = tf.nn.bias_add(conv, biases)
conv1 = tf.nn.relu(bias, name=scope)
input = ...
net = slim.conv2d(input, 128, [3, 3], scope='conv1_1')
假设定义三个相同的卷积层:
net = ...
net = slim.conv2d(net, 256, [3, 3], scope='conv3_1')
net = slim.conv2d(net, 256, [3, 3], scope='conv3_2')
net = slim.conv2d(net, 256, [3, 3], scope='conv3_3')
net = slim.max_pool2d(net, [2, 2], scope='pool2')
net = slim.repeat(net, 3, slim.conv2d, 256, [3, 3], scope='conv3')
net = slim.max_pool2d(net, [2, 2], scope='pool2')
假设定义三层FC:
# Verbose way:
x = slim.fully_connected(x, 32, scope='fc/fc_1')
x = slim.fully_connected(x, 64, scope='fc/fc_2')
x = slim.fully_connected(x, 128, scope='fc/fc_3')
slim.stack(x, slim.fully_connected, [32, 64, 128], scope='fc')
# 普通方法:
x = slim.conv2d(x, 32, [3, 3], scope='core/core_1')
x = slim.conv2d(x, 32, [1, 1], scope='core/core_2')
x = slim.conv2d(x, 64, [3, 3], scope='core/core_3')
x = slim.conv2d(x, 64, [1, 1], scope='core/core_4')
# 简便方法:
slim.stack(x, slim.conv2d, [(32, [3, 3]), (32, [1, 1]), (64, [3, 3]), (64, [1, 1])], scope='core')
slim中的argscope:
如果你的网络有大量相同的参数,如下:
net = slim.conv2d(inputs, 64, [11, 11], 4, padding='SAME',
weights_initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.01),
weights_regularizer=slim.l2_regularizer(0.0005), scope='conv1')
net = slim.conv2d(net, 128, [11, 11], padding='VALID',
weights_initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.01),
weights_regularizer=slim.l2_regularizer(0.0005), scope='conv2')
net = slim.conv2d(net, 256, [11, 11], padding='SAME',
weights_initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.01),
weights_regularizer=slim.l2_regularizer(0.0005), scope='conv3')
然后我们用arg_scope处理一下:
with slim.arg_scope([slim.conv2d], padding='SAME',
weights_initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.01)
weights_regularizer=slim.l2_regularizer(0.0005)):
net = slim.conv2d(inputs, 64, [11, 11], scope='conv1')
net = slim.conv2d(net, 128, [11, 11], padding='VALID', scope='conv2')
net = slim.conv2d(net, 256, [11, 11], scope='conv3')
with slim.arg_scope([slim.conv2d, slim.fully_connected],
activation_fn=tf.nn.relu,
weights_initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.01),
weights_regularizer=slim.l2_regularizer(0.0005)):
with slim.arg_scope([slim.conv2d], stride=1, padding='SAME'):
net = slim.conv2d(inputs, 64, [11, 11], 4, padding='VALID', scope='conv1')
net = slim.conv2d(net, 256, [5, 5],
weights_initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.03),
scope='conv2')
net = slim.fully_connected(net, 1000, activation_fn=None, scope='fc')
采用如上方法,定义一个VGG也就十几行代码的事了。
def vgg16(inputs):
with slim.arg_scope([slim.conv2d, slim.fully_connected],
activation_fn=tf.nn.relu,
weights_initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(0.0, 0.01),
weights_regularizer=slim.l2_regularizer(0.0005)):
net = slim.repeat(inputs, 2, slim.conv2d, 64, [3, 3], scope='conv1')
net = slim.max_pool2d(net, [2, 2], scope='pool1')
net = slim.repeat(net, 2, slim.conv2d, 128, [3, 3], scope='conv2')
net = slim.max_pool2d(net, [2, 2], scope='pool2')
net = slim.repeat(net, 3, slim.conv2d, 256, [3, 3], scope='conv3')
net = slim.max_pool2d(net, [2, 2], scope='pool3')
net = slim.repeat(net, 3, slim.conv2d, 512, [3, 3], scope='conv4')
net = slim.max_pool2d(net, [2, 2], scope='pool4')
net = slim.repeat(net, 3, slim.conv2d, 512, [3, 3], scope='conv5')
net = slim.max_pool2d(net, [2, 2], scope='pool5')
net = slim.fully_connected(net, 4096, scope='fc6')
net = slim.dropout(net, 0.5, scope='dropout6')
net = slim.fully_connected(net, 4096, scope='fc7')
net = slim.dropout(net, 0.5, scope='dropout7')
net = slim.fully_connected(net, 1000, activation_fn=None, scope='fc8')
return net
这个没什么好说的,说一下直接拿经典网络来训练吧。
import tensorflow as tf
vgg = tf.contrib.slim.nets.vgg
# Load the images and labels.
images, labels = ...
# Create the model.
predictions, _ = vgg.vgg_16(images)
# Define the loss functions and get the total loss.
loss = slim.losses.softmax_cross_entropy(predictions, labels)
关于loss,要说一下定义自己的loss的方法,以及注意不要忘记加入到slim中让slim看到你的loss。
还有正则项也是需要手动添加进loss当中的,不然最后计算的时候就不优化正则目标了。
# Load the images and labels.
images, scene_labels, depth_labels, pose_labels = ...
# Create the model.
scene_predictions, depth_predictions, pose_predictions = CreateMultiTaskModel(images)
# Define the loss functions and get the total loss.
classification_loss = slim.losses.softmax_cross_entropy(scene_predictions, scene_labels)
sum_of_squares_loss = slim.losses.sum_of_squares(depth_predictions, depth_labels)
pose_loss = MyCustomLossFunction(pose_predictions, pose_labels)
slim.losses.add_loss(pose_loss) # Letting TF-Slim know about the additional loss.
# The following two ways to compute the total loss are equivalent:
regularization_loss = tf.add_n(slim.losses.get_regularization_losses())
total_loss1 = classification_loss + sum_of_squares_loss + pose_loss + regularization_loss
# (Regularization Loss is included in the total loss by default).
total_loss2 = slim.losses.get_total_loss()
通过以下功能我们可以载入模型的部分变量:
# Create some variables.
v1 = slim.variable(name="v1", ...)
v2 = slim.variable(name="nested/v2", ...)
...
# Get list of variables to restore (which contains only 'v2').
variables_to_restore = slim.get_variables_by_name("v2")
# Create the saver which will be used to restore the variables.
restorer = tf.train.Saver(variables_to_restore)
with tf.Session() as sess:
# Restore variables from disk.
restorer.restore(sess, "/tmp/model.ckpt")
print("Model restored.")
假设我们定义的网络变量是conv1/weights,而从VGG加载的变量名为vgg16/conv1/weights,正常load肯定会报错(找不到变量名),但是可以这样:
def name_in_checkpoint(var):
return 'vgg16/' + var.op.name
variables_to_restore = slim.get_model_variables()
variables_to_restore = {name_in_checkpoint(var):var for var in variables_to_restore}
restorer = tf.train.Saver(variables_to_restore)
with tf.Session() as sess:
# Restore variables from disk.
restorer.restore(sess, "/tmp/model.ckpt")
