Get the Data

we create a transform to resize the image and convert it to a tensor .

IMAGE_SIZE = 16

composed = transforms.Compose([transforms.Resize((IMAGE_SIZE, IMAGE_SIZE)), transforms.ToTensor()])

Load the training dataset by setting the parameters train to True. We use the transform defined above.

Load the testing dataset by setting the parameters train False.

# Make the validating 

validation_dataset = dsets.MNIST(root='./data', train=False, download=True, transform=composed)

We can see the data type is long.

# Show the data type for each element in dataset

type(train_dataset[0][1])

int

Each element in the rectangular tensor corresponds to a number representing a pixel intensity as demonstrated by the following image.

MNIST data image

Print out the fourth label

# The label for the fourth data element

train_dataset[3][1]

Plot the fourth sample

# The image for the fourth data element
show_data(train_dataset[3])

No description has been provided for this image

The fourth sample is a "1".

Build a Convolutional Neural Network Class

Build a Convolutional Network class with two Convolutional layers and one fully connected layer. Pre-determine the size of the final output matrix. The parameters in the constructor are the number of output channels for the first and second layer.

class CNN(nn.Module):

    # Contructor
    def __init__(self, out_1=16, out_2=32):
        super(CNN, self).__init__()
        self.cnn1 = nn.Conv2d(in_channels=1, out_channels=out_1, kernel_size=5, padding=2)
        self.maxpool1=nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2)

        self.cnn2 = nn.Conv2d(in_channels=out_1, out_channels=out_2, kernel_size=5, stride=1, padding=2)
        self.maxpool2=nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2)
        self.fc1 = nn.Linear(out_2 * 4 * 4, 10)

    # Prediction
    def forward(self, x):
        x = self.cnn1(x)
        x = torch.relu(x)
        x = self.maxpool1(x)
        x = self.cnn2(x)
        x = torch.relu(x)
        x = self.maxpool2(x)
        x = x.view(x.size(0), -1)
        x = self.fc1(x)
        return x

    # Outputs in each steps
    def activations(self, x):
        #outputs activation this is not necessary
        z1 = self.cnn1(x)
        a1 = torch.relu(z1)
        out = self.maxpool1(a1)

        z2 = self.cnn2(out)
        a2 = torch.relu(z2)
        out1 = self.maxpool2(a2)
        out = out.view(out.size(0),-1)
        return z1, a1, z2, a2, out1,out

Define the Convolutional Neural Network Classifier, Criterion function, Optimizer and Train the Model

There are 16 output channels for the first layer, and 32 output channels for the second layer

# Create the model object using CNN class

model = CNN(out_1=16, out_2=32)

Plot the model parameters for the kernels before training the kernels. The kernels are initialized randomly.

# Plot the parameters

plot_parameters(model.state_dict()['cnn1.weight'], number_rows=4, name="1st layer kernels before training ")
plot_parameters(model.state_dict()['cnn2.weight'], number_rows=4, name='2nd layer kernels before training' )

Define the loss function, the optimizer and the dataset loader

criterion = nn.CrossEntropyLoss()
learning_rate = 0.1
optimizer = torch.optim.SGD(model.parameters(), lr = learning_rate)
train_loader = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(dataset=train_dataset, batch_size=100)
validation_loader = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(dataset=validation_dataset, batch_size=5000)

Train the model and determine validation accuracy technically test accuracy (This may take a long time)

# Train the model

n_epochs=3
cost_list=[]
accuracy_list=[]
N_test=len(validation_dataset)
COST=0

def train_model(n_epochs):
    for epoch in range(n_epochs):
        COST=0
        for x, y in train_loader:
            optimizer.zero_grad()
            z = model(x)
            loss = criterion(z, y)
            loss.backward()
            optimizer.step()
            COST+=loss.data

        cost_list.append(COST)
        correct=0
        #perform a prediction on the validation  data  
        for x_test, y_test in validation_loader:
            z = model(x_test)
            _, yhat = torch.max(z.data, 1)
            correct += (yhat == y_test).sum().item()
        accuracy = correct / N_test
        accuracy_list.append(accuracy)

train_model(n_epochs)
