I've implemented the following Autoencoder in Tensorflow as shown below. It basically takes MNIST digits as inputs, learns the structure of the data and reproduces the input at its output.
from __future__ import division, print_function, absolute_import
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# Import MNIST data
from tensorflow.examples.tutorials.mnist import input_data
mnist = input_data.read_data_sets("MNIST_data", one_hot=True)
# Parameters
learning_rate = 0.01
training_epochs = 20
batch_size = 256
display_step = 1
examples_to_show = 10
# Network Parameters
n_hidden_1 = 256 # 1st layer num features
n_hidden_2 = 128 # 2nd layer num features
n_input = 784 # MNIST data input (img shape: 28*28)
# tf Graph input (only pictures)
X = tf.placeholder("float", [None, n_input])
weights = {
'encoder_h1': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_input, n_hidden_1])),
'encoder_h2': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_hidden_1, n_hidden_2])),
'decoder_h1': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_hidden_2, n_hidden_1])),
'decoder_h2': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_hidden_1, n_input])),
}
biases = {
'encoder_b1': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_hidden_1])),
'encoder_b2': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_hidden_2])),
'decoder_b1': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_hidden_1])),
'decoder_b2': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_input])),
}
# Building the encoder
def encoder(x):
# Encoder Hidden layer with sigmoid activation #1
layer_1 = tf.nn.sigmoid(tf.add(tf.matmul(x, weights['encoder_h1']),
biases['encoder_b1']))
# Decoder Hidden layer with sigmoid activation #2
layer_2 = tf.nn.sigmoid(tf.add(tf.matmul(layer_1, weights['encoder_h2']),
biases['encoder_b2']))
return layer_2
# Building the decoder
def decoder(x):
# Encoder Hidden layer with sigmoid activation #1
layer_1 = tf.nn.sigmoid(tf.add(tf.matmul(x, weights['decoder_h1']),
biases['decoder_b1']))
# Decoder Hidden layer with sigmoid activation #2
layer_2 = tf.nn.sigmoid(tf.add(tf.matmul(layer_1, weights['decoder_h2']),
biases['decoder_b2']))
return layer_2
# Construct model
encoder_op = encoder(X)
decoder_op = decoder(encoder_op)
# Prediction
y_pred = decoder_op
# Targets (Labels) are the input data.
y_true = X
# Define loss and optimizer, minimize the squared error
cost = tf.reduce_mean(tf.pow(y_true - y_pred, 2))
optimizer = tf.train.RMSPropOptimizer(learning_rate).minimize(cost)
# Initializing the variables
init = tf.global_variables_initializer()
# Launch the graph
with tf.Session() as sess:
sess.run(init)
total_batch = int(mnist.train.num_examples/batch_size)
# Training cycle
for epoch in range(training_epochs):
# Loop over all batches
for i in range(total_batch):
batch_xs, batch_ys = mnist.train.next_batch(batch_size)
# Run optimization op (backprop) and cost op (to get loss value)
_, c = sess.run([optimizer, cost], feed_dict={X: batch_xs})
# Display logs per epoch step
if epoch % display_step == 0:
print("Epoch:", '%04d' % (epoch+1),
"cost=", "{:.9f}".format(c))
print("Optimization Finished!")
# Applying encode and decode over test set
encode_decode = sess.run(
y_pred, feed_dict={X: mnist.test.images[:examples_to_show]})
# Compare original images with their reconstructions
f, a = plt.subplots(2, 10, figsize=(10, 2))
for i in range(examples_to_show):
a[0][i].imshow(np.reshape(mnist.test.images[i], (28, 28)))
a[1][i].imshow(np.reshape(encode_decode[i], (28, 28)))
f.show()
plt.draw()
plt.waitforbuttonpress()
When I am encoding and decoding over the test set, how do I calculate the reconstruction error (i.e. the Mean Squared Error/Loss) for each sample?
In other words I'd like to see how well the Autoencoder is able to reconstruct its input so that I can use the Autoencoder as a single-class classifier.
Many thanks in advance.
