Learn Keras by Example – How to Save Model Training Progress

Save Model Training Progress

Preliminaries


/* Load libraries */
import numpy as np
from keras.datasets import imdb
from keras.preprocessing.text import Tokenizer
from keras import models
from keras import layers
from keras.callbacks import ModelCheckpoint

#/* Set random seed */
np.random.seed(0)

Load IMDB Movie Review Data


/* Set the number of features we want */
number_of_features = 1000

/* Load data and target vector from movie review data */
(train_data, train_target), (test_data, test_target) = imdb.load_data(num_words=number_of_features)

/* Convert movie review data to a one-hot encoded feature matrix */
tokenizer = Tokenizer(num_words=number_of_features)
train_features = tokenizer.sequences_to_matrix(train_data, mode='binary')
test_features = tokenizer.sequences_to_matrix(test_data, mode='binary')

Create Neural Network Architecture


/* Start neural network */
network = models.Sequential()

/* Add fully connected layer with a ReLU activation function */
network.add(layers.Dense(units=16, activation='relu', input_shape=(number_of_features,)))

/* Add fully connected layer with a ReLU activation function */
network.add(layers.Dense(units=16, activation='relu'))

/* Add fully connected layer with a sigmoid activation function */
network.add(layers.Dense(units=1, activation='sigmoid'))

Compile Neural Network


/* Compile neural network */
network.compile(loss='binary_crossentropy', # Cross-entropy
                optimizer='rmsprop', # Root Mean Square Propagation
                metrics=['accuracy']) # Accuracy performance metric

Save Training Progress After Each Epoch

After every epoch ModelCheckpoint saves a model to the location specified by the filepath parameter. If we include only a filename (e.g. models.hdf5) that file will be overridden with the latest model every epoch. If we only wanted to save the best model according to the performance of some loss function, we can set save_best_only=True and monitor='val_loss' to not override a file if the model has a worse test loss than the previous model. Alternatively, we can save every epoch’s model as its own file by including the epoch number and test loss score into the filename itself. For example if we set filepath to model_{epoch:02d}_{val_loss:.2f}.hdf5, the name of the file containing the model saved after the 11th epoch with a test loss value of 0.33 would be model_10_0.35.hdf5 (notice that the epoch number if 0-indexed).


/* Set callback functions to early stop training and save the best model so far */
checkpoint = [ModelCheckpoint(filepath='models.hdf5')]

Train Neural Network


/* Train neural network */
history = network.fit(train_features, # Features
                      train_target, # Target vector
                      epochs=3, # Number of epochs
                      callbacks=checkpoint, # Checkpoint
                      verbose=0, # No output
                      batch_size=100, # Number of observations per batch
                      validation_data=(test_features, test_target)) # Data for evaluation

Two Machine Learning Fields

There are two sides to machine learning:

  • Practical Machine Learning:This is about querying databases, cleaning data, writing scripts to transform data and gluing algorithm and libraries together and writing custom code to squeeze reliable answers from data to satisfy difficult and ill defined questions. It’s the mess of reality.
  • Theoretical Machine Learning: This is about math and abstraction and idealized scenarios and limits and beauty and informing what is possible. It is a whole lot neater and cleaner and removed from the mess of reality.
