Comparison of a very simple regression in pytorch vs tensorflow and keras

 , ,

This is a follow up to https://arthought.com/comparison-of-a-very-simple-regression-in-tensorflow-and-keras/

It covers the same topic but in pytorch.

Remarks

This notebook is a pytorch-implementation based on a Tutorial notebook on the tensorflow web site.

You can find some more insformation on eager execution, also on Tensorflow's website:

We have marked sections that have differences with the original workbook in yellow.

Custom training: basics

In [2]:
import torch
assert torch.tensor(1.0) == 1.0, "Converting 1.0 to torch tensor, should match"
assert torch.tensor(1.0).numpy() == 1.0, "Converting 1.0 to torch tensor, then back to numpy, should match"

Define torch model

In [3]:
class Net(torch.nn.Module):
    def __init__(self: torch.nn):
        super(Net, self).__init__()
        
        
        mylayer = torch.nn.Linear(1,1)
        # initialise values .. to make results deterministic
        mylayer.bias = torch.nn.Parameter(torch.tensor([0.0]))
        mylayer.weight = torch.nn.Parameter(torch.tensor([[5.0]]))
        
        self.net = torch.nn.Sequential(
            mylayer
        )      
    
    def forward(self: torch.nn, x):
        return self.net(x)

Check initialisation

In [4]:
myNet = Net()
# https://discuss.pytorch.org/t/how-to-print-models-parameters-with-its-name-and-requires-grad-value/10778
for name, param in myNet.named_parameters():
    if param.requires_grad:
        print (name, param.data)

net.0.weight tensor([[5.]])
net.0.bias tensor([0.])

Obtain training data

Let's synthesize the training data with some noise.

In [5]:
import numpy as np
nOfDatapoints = 1000
W_TRUE, b_TRUE = 3.0, 2.0
np.random.seed(314)
inputs = np.random.normal(size=nOfDatapoints)
noise = np.random.normal(size=nOfDatapoints)
outputs = W_TRUE * inputs + b_TRUE + noise

Split into train/test

In [6]:
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
inputs_train, inputs_test, outputs_train, outputs_test = \
    train_test_split(inputs, outputs, test_size=0.33, random_state=42)
# outputs = outputs.reshape(-1,1)  # reshape to match keras output
In [7]:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from jupyterthemes import jtplot
jtplot.style()

plt.scatter(inputs,outputs,c='b', alpha=0.5, label='Data')
plt.scatter(inputs_train, outputs_train, c='y', alpha=0.2, label='Train')
plt.scatter(inputs_test, outputs_test, c='g', alpha=0.2, label='Test')
plt.legend()## Explore data und Model

Explore data und Model before training

Before we train the model let's visualize where the model stands right now. We'll plot the model's predictions in black and the testting data in blue.

In [20]:
mynet = Net()

prediction_test = mynet(torch.Tensor([inputs_test]).transpose_(0, 1)).detach().numpy()
plt.scatter(inputs_test, outputs_test, c = 'b', alpha=0.5, label = 'Test Data')
plt.scatter(inputs_test, prediction_test, c = 'k', alpha=0.5, label = 'Initial Model Guess')
plt.legend()
plt.show()

Set up loss function

In [21]:
from tensorboardX import SummaryWriter

objective = torch.nn.MSELoss(reduce=True)
optimizer = torch.optim.SGD(params=mynet.parameters(), lr=0.1)
writer = SummaryWriter(comment='-regression-tutorial')

Check

In [22]:
prediction_v = mynet( torch.Tensor([inputs_test]).transpose_(0,1))
outputs_v = torch.Tensor([outputs_test]).transpose_(0,1)
objective(prediction_v, outputs_v), ((outputs_v- prediction_v)**2).mean(), ((outputs_test.reshape(-1,1)- prediction_test)**2).mean()
Out[22]:
(tensor(9.3949, grad_fn=<MseLossBackward>),
 tensor(9.3949, grad_fn=<MeanBackward1>),
 9.394942704256383)

Do optimisation

In [23]:
batchsize = len(inputs_train)
epochs = 10
for ix in range(epochs):
    optimizer.zero_grad()
    prediction_v = mynet( torch.Tensor([inputs_train]).transpose_(0,1))
    outputs_v = torch.Tensor([outputs_train]).transpose_(0,1)
    
    loss_v = objective(prediction_v, outputs_v)
    loss_v.backward()
    optimizer.step()
    
    print("%d: loss=%.3f" % (ix, loss_v.item()))
    writer.add_scalar('loss', loss_v.item(), ix)
    
    

0: loss=9.306
1: loss=6.285
2: loss=4.368
3: loss=3.151
4: loss=2.379
5: loss=1.889
6: loss=1.578
7: loss=1.380
8: loss=1.255
9: loss=1.175

Explore data und Model after training

Before we train the model let's visualize where the model stands right now. We'll plot the model's predictions in black and the testting data in blue.

In [24]:
prediction_test = mynet(torch.Tensor([inputs_test]).transpose_(0, 1)).detach().numpy()
plt.scatter(inputs_test, outputs_test, c = 'b', alpha=0.5, label = 'Test Data')
plt.scatter(inputs_test, prediction_test, c = 'k', alpha=0.5, label = 'Initial Model Guess')
plt.legend()
