Moving from Julia 0.6 to 1.1


Finally, all files in the GitHub repository have been updated to be able to run on Julia 1.1. In order to be able to run them (at the time of writing), the developmental versions of the Tensorflow.jl and PyCall.jl packages need to be installed. Some notable changes are listed below:

General

  • The shuffle command has been moved to the Random package as Random.shuffle().
  • linspace has been replaced with range(start, stop=…, length=…).
  • To determine the length of a matrix, use size(…,2) instead of length().
  • For accessing the first and last part of datasets, head() as been replaced with first(), and tail() with last().
  • For arithmetic calculations involving constants and arrays, the better syntax const .- array needs to be used instead of const – array. In connection with this, a space might be required before the operator; i.e. to avoid confusion with number types use 1 .- array, and not 1.-array.
  • Conversion of a dataframe df to a matrix can be done via convert(Matrix, df) instead of convert(Array, df).

Exercise 8

  • The creation of an initially undefined vector etc. now requires the undef keyword as in activation_functions = Vector{Function}(undef, size(hidden_units,1)).
  • An assignment of a function to multiple entries of a vector requires the dot-operator: activation_functions[1:end-1] .= z->nn.dropout(nn.relu(z), keep_probability)

Exercise 10

  • For this exercise to work, the MNIST.jl package needs an update. A quick fix can be found in the repository together with the exercise notebooks.
  • Instead of flipdim(A, d), use reverse(A, dims=d).
  • indmax has been replaced by argmax.
  • Parsing expressions has been moved to the Meta package and can be done by Meta.parse(…).

Exercise 11

  • The behaviour of taking the transpose of a vector has been changed – it now creates an abstract linear algebra object. We use collect() on the transpose for functions that cannot handle the new type.
  • To test if a string contains a certain word, contains() has been replaced by occursin().




Intro to Sparse Data and Embeddings

By: Sören Dobberschütz

Re-posted from: https://tensorflowjulia.blogspot.com/2018/09/intro-to-sparse-data-and-embeddings.html

This is the final exercise of Google’s Machine Learning Crash Course. We use the ACL 2011 IMDB dataset to train a Neural Network in predicting wether a movie review is favourable or not, based on the words used in the review text.

There are two notable differences from the original exercise:

  • We do not build a proper input pipeline for the data. This creates a lot of computational overhead – in principle, we need to preprocess the whole dataset before we start training the network. In practise, this if often not feasible. It would be interesting to see how such a pipeline can be implemented for TensorFlow.jl. The Julia package MLLabelUtils.jl might come handy for this task.
  • When visualizing the embedding layer, our Neural Network builds effectively a 1D-representation of keywords to describe if a movie has a favorable review or not. In the Python version, a real 2D embedding is obtained (see the pictures). The reasons for this difference are unknown.

Intro to Sparse Data and Embeddings

Learning Objectives:
  • Convert movie-review string data to a feature vector
  • Implement a sentiment-analysis linear model using a feature vector
  • Implement a sentiment-analysis DNN model using an embedding that projects data into two dimensions
  • Visualize the embedding to see what the model has learned about the relationships between words
In this exercise, we’ll explore sparse data and work with embeddings using text data from movie reviews (from the ACL 2011 IMDB dataset). Open and run TFrecord Extraction.ipynb Colaboratory notebook to extract the data from the original .tfrecord file as Julia variables.

Setup

Let’s import our dependencies and open the training and test data. We have exported the test and training data as hdf5 files in the previous step, so we use the HDF5-package to load the data.

Building a Sentiment Analysis Model

Let’s train a sentiment-analysis model on this data that predicts if a review is generally favorable (label of 1) or unfavorable (label of 0).
To do so, we’ll turn our string-value terms into feature vectors by using a vocabulary, a list of each term we expect to see in our data. For the purposes of this exercise, we’ve created a small vocabulary that focuses on a limited set of terms. Most of these terms were found to be strongly indicative of favorable or unfavorable, but some were just added because they’re interesting.
Each term in the vocabulary is mapped to a coordinate in our feature vector. To convert the string-value terms for an example into this vector format, we encode such that each coordinate gets a value of 0 if the vocabulary term does not appear in the example string, and a value of 1 if it does. Terms in an example that don’t appear in the vocabulary are thrown away.
NOTE: We could of course use a larger vocabulary, and there are special tools for creating these. In addition, instead of just dropping terms that are not in the vocabulary, we can introduce a small number of OOV (out-of-vocabulary) buckets to which you can hash the terms not in the vocabulary. We can also use a feature hashing approach that hashes each term, instead of creating an explicit vocabulary. This works well in practice, but loses interpretability, which is useful for this exercise.

Building the Input Pipeline

First, let’s configure the input pipeline to import our data into a TensorFlow model. We can use the following function to parse the training and test data and return an array of the features and the corresponding labels.
In [3]:
function create_batches(features, targets, steps, batch_size=5, num_epochs=0)
"""Create batches.

Args:

targets: Target column.

if(num_epochs==0)

end

else
features_batches=vcat(features_batches, features[select,:])
target_batches=vcat(target_batches, targets[select,:])
end
end
return features_batches, target_batches

Task 1: Use a Linear Model with Sparse Inputs and an Explicit Vocabulary

For our first model, we’ll build a Linear Classifier model using 50 informative terms; always start simple!
The following code constructs the feature column for our terms.
In [7]:
# 50 informative terms that compose our model vocabulary 
informative_terms = ["bad", "great", "best", "worst", "fun", "beautiful",
"excellent", "poor", "boring", "awful", "terrible",
"definitely", "perfect", "liked", "worse", "waste",
"entertaining", "loved", "unfortunately", "amazing",
"enjoyed", "favorite", "horrible", "brilliant", "highly",
"simple", "annoying", "today", "hilarious", "enjoyable",
"dull", "fantastic", "poorly", "fails", "disappointing",
"disappointment", "not", "him", "her", "good", "time",
"?", ".", "!", "movie", "film", "action", "comedy",
"drama", "family"]
Out[7]:
50-element Array{String,1}:
"bad"
"great"
"best"
"worst"
"fun"
"beautiful"
"excellent"
"poor"
"boring"
"awful"
"terrible"
"definitely"
"perfect"

"her"
"good"
"time"
"?"
"."
"!"
"movie"
"film"
"action"
"comedy"
"drama"
"family"
The following function takes the input data and vocabulary and converts the data to a one-hot encoded matrix.
In [8]:
# function for creating categorial colum from vocabulary list in one hot encoding
function create_data_columns(data, informative_terms)
onehotmat=zeros(length(data), length(informative_terms))

for i=1:length(data)
string=data[i]
for j=1:length(informative_terms)

In [9]:
train_feature_mat=create_data_columns(train_features, informative_terms)

Next, we’ll construct the Linear Classifier model, train it on the training set, and evaluate it on the evaluation set. After you read through the code, run it and see how you do.

Task 3: Use an Embedding with a DNN Model

In this task, we’ll implement our DNN model using an embedding column. An embedding column takes sparse data as input and returns a lower-dimensional dense vector as output. We’ll add the embedding layer as the first layer in the hidden_units-vector, and set is_embedding to true.
NOTE: In practice, we might project to dimensions higher than 2, like 50 or 100. But for now, 2 dimensions is easy to visualize.

Task 4: Examine the Embedding

Let’s now take a look at the actual embedding space, and see where the terms end up in it. Do the following:
  1. Run the following code to see the embedding we trained in Task 3. Do things end up where you’d expect?
  2. Re-train the model by rerunning the code in Task 3, and then run the embedding visualization below again. What stays the same? What changes?
  3. Finally, re-train the model again using only 10 steps (which will yield a terrible model). Run the embedding visualization below again. What do you see now, and why?

Task 5: Try to improve the model’s performance

See if you can refine the model to improve performance. A couple things you may want to try:
  • Changing hyperparameters, or using a different optimizer than Adam (you may only gain one or two accuracy percentage points following these strategies).
  • Adding additional terms to informative_terms. There’s a full vocabulary file with all 30,716 terms for this data set that you can use at: https://storage.googleapis.com/mledu-datasets/sparse-data-embedding/terms.txt You can pick out additional terms from this vocabulary file, or use the whole thing.
In the following code, we will import the whole vocabulary file and run the model with it.

vocabulary=Array{String}(0)
open("terms.txt") do file
for ln in eachline(file)

A Final Word

We may have gotten a DNN solution with an embedding that was better than our original linear model, but the linear model was also pretty good and was quite a bit faster to train. Linear models train more quickly because they do not have nearly as many parameters to update or layers to backprop through.
In some applications, the speed of linear models may be a game changer, or linear models may be perfectly sufficient from a quality standpoint. In other areas, the additional model complexity and capacity provided by DNNs might be more important. When defining your model architecture, remember to explore your problem sufficiently so that you know which space you’re in.

The last exercise of the Machine Learning Crash Course uses text data from movie reviews (from the ACL 2011 IMDB dataset). The data has been processed as a tf.Example-format and can be downloaded as a .tfrecord-file from Google’s servers. 

Tensorflow.jl does not support this file type, so in order to follow the exercise, we need to extract the data from the tfrecord-dataset. This Jupyter-notebook contains Python code to access the data, store it as an HDF5 file, and upload it to Google Drive. It can be run directly in Google’s Colaboratory Platform without installing Python. We obtain the files test_data.h5 and train_data.h5, which will be used in the next post.

TFrecord Extraction

We will load a tfrecord dataset and get the data out to use them with some other framework, for example TensorFlow on Julia.

Prepare Packages and Parse Function

def _parse_function(record):
"""Extracts features and labels.

Args:
record: File path to a TFRecord file
Returns:
A `tuple` `(labels, features)`:
features: A dict of tensors representing the features
labels: A tensor with the corresponding labels.
"""
features = {
"terms": tf.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string), # terms are strings of varying lengths
"labels": tf.FixedLenFeature(shape=[1], dtype=tf.float32) # labels are 0 or 1
}

parsed_features = tf.parse_single_example(record, features)

terms = parsed_features['terms'].values
labels = parsed_features['labels']

return {'terms':terms}, labels

Training Data

We start with the training data.
In [0]:
# Create the Dataset object.
ds = tf.data.TFRecordDataset(train_path)
# Map features and labels with the parse function.
ds = ds.map(_parse_function)
In [0]:
# Make a one shot iterator
n = ds.make_one_shot_iterator().get_next()
sess = tf.Session()
Direct meta-information on the number of datasets in a tfrecord file is unfortunately not available. We use the following nice hack to get the total number of entries by iterating over the whole dataset.
In [6]:
sum(1 for _ in tf.python_io.tf_record_iterator(train_path))
Out[6]:
25000
Now, we create two vectors to store the output labels and features. Looping over the tfrecord-dataset extracts the entries.
In [0]:
output_features=[]
output_labels=[]

for i in range(0,24999):
value=sess.run(n)
output_features.append(value[0]['terms'])
output_labels.append(value[1])

Export to File

We create a file to export using the h5py package.
In [0]:
import h5py
In [0]:
dt = h5py.special_dtype(vlen=str)

h5f = h5py.File('train_data.h5', 'w')
h5f.create_dataset('output_features', data=output_features, dtype=dt)
h5f.create_dataset('output_labels', data=output_labels)
h5f.close()

Test Data

We do a similar action on the test data.
In [0]:
# Create the Dataset object.
ds = tf.data.TFRecordDataset(test_path)
# Map features and labels with the parse function.
ds = ds.map(_parse_function)
In [0]:
n = ds.make_one_shot_iterator().get_next()
sess = tf.Session()
The total number of datasets is
In [7]:
sum(1 for _ in tf.python_io.tf_record_iterator(test_path))
Out[7]:
25000
In [0]:
output_features=[]
output_labels=[]

for i in range(0,24999):
value=sess.run(n)
output_features.append(value[0]['terms'])
output_labels.append(value[1])

Export to file

In [0]:
dt = h5py.special_dtype(vlen=str)

h5f = h5py.File('test_data.h5', 'w')
h5f.create_dataset('output_features', data=output_features, dtype=dt)
h5f.create_dataset('output_labels', data=output_labels)
h5f.close()

Google Drive Export

Finally, we export the two files containing the training and test data to Google Drive. If necessary, intall the PyDrive package using !pip install -U -q PyDrive. The folder-id is the string of letters and numbers that can be seen in your browser URL after https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/ when accessing the desired folder.
In [0]:
!pip install -U -q PyDrive

from pydrive.auth import GoogleAuth
from pydrive.drive import GoogleDrive
from google.colab import auth
from oauth2client.client import GoogleCredentials

# Authenticate and create the PyDrive client.
auth.authenticate_user()
gauth = GoogleAuth()
gauth.credentials = GoogleCredentials.get_application_default()
drive = GoogleDrive(gauth)

# PyDrive reference:

# Use `file = drive.CreateFile()` to write to root directory
file = drive.CreateFile({'parents':[{"id": "insert_folder_id"}]})
file.SetContentFile('train_data.h5')
file.Upload()
