tf.compat.v1.keras.experimental.LinearModel

tf.keras.experimental.LinearModel(
    units=1, activation=None, use_bias=True, kernel_initializer='zeros',
    bias_initializer='zeros', kernel_regularizer=None,
    bias_regularizer=None, **kwargs
)

This model approximates the following function:

$$y = \beta + \sum_{i=1}^{N} w_{i} * x_{i}$$

where

$$\beta$$

is the bias and

$$w_{i}$$

is the weight for each feature.

Example:

model = LinearModel()
model.compile(optimizer='sgd', loss='mse')
model.fit(x, y, epochs=epochs)

This model accepts sparse float inputs as well:

Example:

model = LinearModel()
opt = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam()
loss_fn = tf.keras.losses.MeanSquaredError()
with tf.GradientTape() as tape:
  output = model(sparse_input)
  loss = tf.reduce_mean(loss_fn(target, output))
grads = tape.gradient(loss, model.weights)
opt.apply_gradients(zip(grads, model.weights))

Args
units	Positive integer, output dimension without the batch size.
activation	Activation function to use. If you don't specify anything, no activation is applied.
use_bias	whether to calculate the bias/intercept for this model. If set to False, no bias/intercept will be used in calculations, e.g., the data is already centered.
kernel_initializer	Initializer for the kernel weights matrices.
bias_initializer	Initializer for the bias vector.
kernel_regularizer	regularizer for kernel vectors.
bias_regularizer	regularizer for bias vector.
**kwargs	The keyword arguments that are passed on to BaseLayer.init.

Attributes
distribute_strategy	The tf.distribute.Strategy this model was created under.
layers
metrics_names	Returns the model's display labels for all outputs. Note: metrics_names are available only after a keras.Model has been trained/evaluated on actual data. inputs = tf.keras.layers.Input(shape=(3,)) outputs = tf.keras.layers.Dense(2)(inputs) model = tf.keras.models.Model(inputs=inputs, outputs=outputs) model.compile(optimizer="Adam", loss="mse", metrics=["mae"]) model.metrics_names [] x = np.random.random((2, 3)) y = np.random.randint(0, 2, (2, 2)) model.fit(x, y) model.metrics_names ['loss', 'mae'] inputs = tf.keras.layers.Input(shape=(3,)) d = tf.keras.layers.Dense(2, name='out') output_1 = d(inputs) output_2 = d(inputs) model = tf.keras.models.Model( inputs=inputs, outputs=[output_1, output_2]) model.compile(optimizer="Adam", loss="mse", metrics=["mae", "acc"]) model.fit(x, (y, y)) model.metrics_names ['loss', 'out_loss', 'out_1_loss', 'out_mae', 'out_acc', 'out_1_mae', 'out_1_acc']
run_eagerly	Settable attribute indicating whether the model should run eagerly. Running eagerly means that your model will be run step by step, like Python code. Your model might run slower, but it should become easier for you to debug it by stepping into individual layer calls. By default, we will attempt to compile your model to a static graph to deliver the best execution performance.

Methods

compile

View source

compile(
    optimizer='rmsprop', loss=None, metrics=None, loss_weights=None,
    weighted_metrics=None, run_eagerly=None, steps_per_execution=None, **kwargs
)

Configures the model for training.

Arguments
optimizer	String (name of optimizer) or optimizer instance. See tf.keras.optimizers.
loss	String (name of objective function), objective function or tf.keras.losses.Loss instance. See tf.keras.losses. An objective function is any callable with the signature loss = fn(y_true, y_pred), where y_true = ground truth values with shape = [batch_size, d0, .. dN], except sparse loss functions such as sparse categorical crossentropy where shape = [batch_size, d0, .. dN-1]. y_pred = predicted values with shape = [batch_size, d0, .. dN]. It returns a weighted loss float tensor. If a custom Loss instance is used and reduction is set to NONE, return value has the shape [batch_size, d0, .. dN-1] ie. per-sample or per-timestep loss values; otherwise, it is a scalar. If the model has multiple outputs, you can use a different loss on each output by passing a dictionary or a list of losses. The loss value that will be minimized by the model will then be the sum of all individual losses.
metrics	List of metrics to be evaluated by the model during training and testing. Each of this can be a string (name of a built-in function), function or a tf.keras.metrics.Metric instance. See tf.keras.metrics. Typically you will use metrics=['accuracy']. A function is any callable with the signature result = fn(y_true, y_pred). To specify different metrics for different outputs of a multi-output model, you could also pass a dictionary, such as metrics={'output_a': 'accuracy', 'output_b': ['accuracy', 'mse']}. You can also pass a list (len = len(outputs)) of lists of metrics such as metrics=[['accuracy'], ['accuracy', 'mse']] or metrics=['accuracy', ['accuracy', 'mse']]. When you pass the strings 'accuracy' or 'acc', we convert this to one of tf.keras.metrics.BinaryAccuracy, tf.keras.metrics.CategoricalAccuracy, tf.keras.metrics.SparseCategoricalAccuracy based on the loss function used and the model output shape. We do a similar conversion for the strings 'crossentropy' and 'ce' as well.
loss_weights	Optional list or dictionary specifying scalar coefficients (Python floats) to weight the loss contributions of different model outputs. The loss value that will be minimized by the model will then be the weighted sum of all individual losses, weighted by the loss_weights coefficients. If a list, it is expected to have a 1:1 mapping to the model's outputs. If a dict, it is expected to map output names (strings) to scalar coefficients.
weighted_metrics	List of metrics to be evaluated and weighted by sample_weight or class_weight during training and testing.
run_eagerly	Bool. Defaults to False. If True, this Model's logic will not be wrapped in a tf.function. Recommended to leave this as None unless your Model cannot be run inside a tf.function.
steps_per_execution	Int. Defaults to 1. The number of batches to run during each tf.function call. Running multiple batches inside a single tf.function call can greatly improve performance on TPUs or small models with a large Python overhead. At most, one full epoch will be run each execution. If a number larger than the size of the epoch is passed, the execution will be truncated to the size of the epoch. Note that if steps_per_execution is set to N, Callback.on_batch_begin and Callback.on_batch_end methods will only be called every N batches (i.e. before/after each tf.function execution).
**kwargs	Arguments supported for backwards compatibility only.

Raises
ValueError	In case of invalid arguments for optimizer, loss or metrics.

evaluate

View source

evaluate(
    x=None, y=None, batch_size=None, verbose=1, sample_weight=None, steps=None,
    callbacks=None, max_queue_size=10, workers=1, use_multiprocessing=False,
    return_dict=False
)

Returns the loss value & metrics values for the model in test mode.

Computation is done in batches (see the batch_size arg.)

Arguments
x	Input data. It could be: A Numpy array (or array-like), or a list of arrays (in case the model has multiple inputs). A TensorFlow tensor, or a list of tensors (in case the model has multiple inputs). A dict mapping input names to the corresponding array/tensors, if the model has named inputs. A tf.data dataset. Should return a tuple of either (inputs, targets) or (inputs, targets, sample_weights). A generator or keras.utils.Sequence returning (inputs, targets) or (inputs, targets, sample_weights). A more detailed description of unpacking behavior for iterator types (Dataset, generator, Sequence) is given in the Unpacking behavior for iterator-like inputs section of Model.fit.
y	Target data. Like the input data x, it could be either Numpy array(s) or TensorFlow tensor(s). It should be consistent with x (you cannot have Numpy inputs and tensor targets, or inversely). If x is a dataset, generator or keras.utils.Sequence instance, y should not be specified (since targets will be obtained from the iterator/dataset).
batch_size	Integer or None. Number of samples per batch of computation. If unspecified, batch_size will default to 32. Do not specify the batch_size if your data is in the form of a dataset, generators, or keras.utils.Sequence instances (since they generate batches).
verbose	0 or 1. Verbosity mode. 0 = silent, 1 = progress bar.
sample_weight	Optional Numpy array of weights for the test samples, used for weighting the loss function. You can either pass a flat (1D) Numpy array with the same length as the input samples (1:1 mapping between weights and samples), or in the case of temporal data, you can pass a 2D array with shape (samples, sequence_length), to apply a different weight to every timestep of every sample. This argument is not supported when x is a dataset, instead pass sample weights as the third element of x.
steps	Integer or None. Total number of steps (batches of samples) before declaring the evaluation round finished. Ignored with the default value of None. If x is a tf.data dataset and steps is None, 'evaluate' will run until the dataset is exhausted. This argument is not supported with array inputs.
callbacks	List of keras.callbacks.Callback instances. List of callbacks to apply during evaluation. See callbacks.
max_queue_size	Integer. Used for generator or keras.utils.Sequence input only. Maximum size for the generator queue. If unspecified, max_queue_size will default to 10.
workers	Integer. Used for generator or keras.utils.Sequence input only. Maximum number of processes to spin up when using process-based threading. If unspecified, workers will default to 1. If 0, will execute the generator on the main thread.
use_multiprocessing	Boolean. Used for generator or keras.utils.Sequence input only. If True, use process-based threading. If unspecified, use_multiprocessing will default to False. Note that because this implementation relies on multiprocessing, you should not pass non-picklable arguments to the generator as they can't be passed easily to children processes.
return_dict	If True, loss and metric results are returned as a dict, with each key being the name of the metric. If False, they are returned as a list.

See the discussion of Unpacking behavior for iterator-like inputs for Model.fit.

Returns
Scalar test loss (if the model has a single output and no metrics) or list of scalars (if the model has multiple outputs and/or metrics). The attribute model.metrics_names will give you the display labels for the scalar outputs.

Raises
RuntimeError	If model.evaluate is wrapped in tf.function.
ValueError	in case of invalid arguments.

evaluate_generator

View source

evaluate_generator(
    generator, steps=None, callbacks=None, max_queue_size=10, workers=1,
    use_multiprocessing=False, verbose=0
)

Evaluates the model on a data generator.

DEPRECATED:

Model.evaluate now supports generators, so there is no longer any need to use this endpoint.

fit

View source

fit(
    x=None, y=None, batch_size=None, epochs=1, verbose=1, callbacks=None,
    validation_split=0.0, validation_data=None, shuffle=True, class_weight=None,
    sample_weight=None, initial_epoch=0, steps_per_epoch=None,
    validation_steps=None, validation_batch_size=None, validation_freq=1,
    max_queue_size=10, workers=1, use_multiprocessing=False
)

Trains the model for a fixed number of epochs (iterations on a dataset).

Arguments
x	Input data. It could be: A Numpy array (or array-like), or a list of arrays (in case the model has multiple inputs). A TensorFlow tensor, or a list of tensors (in case the model has multiple inputs). A dict mapping input names to the corresponding array/tensors, if the model has named inputs. A tf.data dataset. Should return a tuple of either (inputs, targets) or (inputs, targets, sample_weights). A generator or keras.utils.Sequence returning (inputs, targets) or (inputs, targets, sample_weights). A more detailed description of unpacking behavior for iterator types (Dataset, generator, Sequence) is given below.
y	Target data. Like the input data x, it could be either Numpy array(s) or TensorFlow tensor(s). It should be consistent with x (you cannot have Numpy inputs and tensor targets, or inversely). If x is a dataset, generator, or keras.utils.Sequence instance, y should not be specified (since targets will be obtained from x).
batch_size	Integer or None. Number of samples per gradient update. If unspecified, batch_size will default to 32. Do not specify the batch_size if your data is in the form of datasets, generators, or keras.utils.Sequence instances (since they generate batches).
epochs	Integer. Number of epochs to train the model. An epoch is an iteration over the entire x and y data provided. Note that in conjunction with initial_epoch, epochs is to be understood as "final epoch". The model is not trained for a number of iterations given by epochs, but merely until the epoch of index epochs is reached.
verbose	0, 1, or 2. Verbosity mode. 0 = silent, 1 = progress bar, 2 = one line per epoch. Note that the progress bar is not particularly useful when logged to a file, so verbose=2 is recommended when not running interactively (eg, in a production environment).
callbacks	List of keras.callbacks.Callback instances. List of callbacks to apply during training. See tf.keras.callbacks. Note tf.keras.callbacks.ProgbarLogger and tf.keras.callbacks.History callbacks are created automatically and need not be passed into model.fit. tf.keras.callbacks.ProgbarLogger is created or not based on verbose argument to model.fit.
validation_split	Float between 0 and 1. Fraction of the training data to be used as validation data. The model will set apart this fraction of the training data, will not train on it, and will evaluate the loss and any model metrics on this data at the end of each epoch. The validation data is selected from the last samples in the x and y data provided, before shuffling. This argument is not supported when x is a dataset, generator or keras.utils.Sequence instance.
validation_data	Data on which to evaluate the loss and any model metrics at the end of each epoch. The model will not be trained on this data. Thus, note the fact that the validation loss of data provided using validation_split or validation_data is not affected by regularization layers like noise and dropout. validation_data will override validation_split. validation_data could be: tuple (x_val, y_val) of Numpy arrays or tensors tuple (x_val, y_val, val_sample_weights) of Numpy arrays dataset For the first two cases, batch_size must be provided. For the last case, validation_steps could be provided. Note that validation_data does not support all the data types that are supported in x, eg, dict, generator or keras.utils.Sequence.
shuffle	Boolean (whether to shuffle the training data before each epoch) or str (for 'batch'). This argument is ignored when x is a generator. 'batch' is a special option for dealing with the limitations of HDF5 data; it shuffles in batch-sized chunks. Has no effect when steps_per_epoch is not None.
class_weight	Optional dictionary mapping class indices (integers) to a weight (float) value, used for weighting the loss function (during training only). This can be useful to tell the model to "pay more attention" to samples from an under-represented class.
sample_weight	Optional Numpy array of weights for the training samples, used for weighting the loss function (during training only). You can either pass a flat (1D) Numpy array with the same length as the input samples (1:1 mapping between weights and samples), or in the case of temporal data, you can pass a 2D array with shape (samples, sequence_length), to apply a different weight to every timestep of every sample. This argument is not supported when x is a dataset, generator, or keras.utils.Sequence instance, instead provide the sample_weights as the third element of x.
initial_epoch	Integer. Epoch at which to start training (useful for resuming a previous training run).
steps_per_epoch	Integer or None. Total number of steps (batches of samples) before declaring one epoch finished and starting the next epoch. When training with input tensors such as TensorFlow data tensors, the default None is equal to the number of samples in your dataset divided by the batch size, or 1 if that cannot be determined. If x is a tf.data dataset, and 'steps_per_epoch' is None, the epoch will run until the input dataset is exhausted. When passing an infinitely repeating dataset, yo
