This is the notebook for step 2 of the codelab Build a handwritten digit classifier app with TensorFlow Lite.
We start by importing TensorFlow and other supporting libraries that are used for data processing and visualization.
In [0]:
# TensorFlow and tf.keras
import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow import keras
# Helper libraries
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import random
print(tf.__version__)
The MNIST database contains 60,000 training images and 10,000 testing images of handwritten digits. We will use the dataset to train our digit classification model.
Each image in the MNIST dataset is a 28x28 grayscale image containing a digit from 0 to 9, and a label identifying which digit is in the image.
In [0]:
# Keras provides a handy API to download the MNIST dataset, and split them into
# "train" dataset and "test" dataset.
mnist = keras.datasets.mnist
(train_images, train_labels), (test_images, test_labels) = mnist.load_data()
In [0]:
# Normalize the input image so that each pixel value is between 0 to 1.
train_images = train_images / 255.0
test_images = test_images / 255.0
print('Pixels are normalized')
In [0]:
# Show the first 25 images in the training dataset.
plt.figure(figsize=(10,10))
for i in range(25):
plt.subplot(5,5,i+1)
plt.xticks([])
plt.yticks([])
plt.grid(False)
plt.imshow(train_images[i], cmap=plt.cm.gray)
plt.xlabel(train_labels[i])
plt.show()
Next, we use Keras API to build a TensorFlow model and train it on the MNIST "train" dataset. After training, our model will be able to classify the digit images.
Our model takes a 28px x 28px grayscale image as an input, and outputs a float array of length 10 representing the probability of the image being a digit from 0 to 9.
Here we use a simple convolutional neural network, which is a common technique in computer vision. We will not go into details about model architecture in this codelab. If you want have a deeper understanding about different ML model architectures, please consider taking our free TensorFlow training course.
In [0]:
# Define the model architecture
model = keras.Sequential([
keras.layers.InputLayer(input_shape=(28, 28)),
keras.layers.Reshape(target_shape=(28, 28, 1)),
keras.layers.Conv2D(filters=32, kernel_size=(3, 3), activation=tf.nn.relu),
keras.layers.Conv2D(filters=64, kernel_size=(3, 3), activation=tf.nn.relu),
keras.layers.MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)),
keras.layers.Dropout(0.25),
keras.layers.Flatten(),
keras.layers.Dense(10)
])
# Define how to train the model
model.compile(optimizer='adam',
loss=tf.keras.losses.SparseCategoricalCrossentropy(from_logits=True),
metrics=['accuracy'])
# Train the digit classification model
model.fit(train_images, train_labels, epochs=5)
Let's take a closer look at our model structure.
In [0]:
model.summary()
There is an extra dimension with None shape in every layer in our model, which is called the batch dimension. In machine learning, we usually process data in batches to improve throughput, so TensorFlow automatically add the dimension for you.
In [0]:
# Evaluate the model using all images in the test dataset.
test_loss, test_acc = model.evaluate(test_images, test_labels)
print('Test accuracy:', test_acc)
Although our model is relatively simple, we were able to achieve good accuracy around 98% on new images that the model has never seen before. Let's visualize the result.
In [0]:
# A helper function that returns 'red'/'black' depending on if its two input
# parameter matches or not.
def get_label_color(val1, val2):
if val1 == val2:
return 'black'
else:
return 'red'
# Predict the labels of digit images in our test dataset.
predictions = model.predict(test_images)
# As the model output 10 float representing the probability of the input image
# being a digit from 0 to 9, we need to find the largest probability value
# to find out which digit the model predicts to be most likely in the image.
prediction_digits = np.argmax(predictions, axis=1)
# Then plot 100 random test images and their predicted labels.
# If a prediction result is different from the label provided label in "test"
# dataset, we will highlight it in red color.
plt.figure(figsize=(18, 18))
for i in range(100):
ax = plt.subplot(10, 10, i+1)
plt.xticks([])
plt.yticks([])
plt.grid(False)
image_index = random.randint(0, len(prediction_digits))
plt.imshow(test_images[image_index], cmap=plt.cm.gray)
ax.xaxis.label.set_color(get_label_color(prediction_digits[image_index],\
test_labels[image_index]))
plt.xlabel('Predicted: %d' % prediction_digits[image_index])
plt.show()
Now as we have trained the digit classifer model, we will convert it to TensorFlow Lite format for mobile deployment.
In [0]:
# Convert Keras model to TF Lite format.
converter = tf.lite.TFLiteConverter.from_keras_model(model)
tflite_float_model = converter.convert()
# Show model size in KBs.
float_model_size = len(tflite_float_model) / 1024
print('Float model size = %dKBs.' % float_model_size)
As we will deploy our model to a mobile device, we want our model to be as small and as fast as possible. Quantization is a common technique often used in on-device machine learning to shrink ML models. Here we will use 8-bit number to approximate our 32-bit weights, which in turn shrinks the model size by a factor of 4.
See TensorFlow documentation to learn more about other quantization techniques.
In [0]:
# Re-convert the model to TF Lite using quantization.
converter.optimizations = [tf.lite.Optimize.DEFAULT]
tflite_quantized_model = converter.convert()
# Show model size in KBs.
quantized_model_size = len(tflite_quantized_model) / 1024
print('Quantized model size = %dKBs,' % quantized_model_size)
print('which is about %d%% of the float model size.'\
% (quantized_model_size * 100 / float_model_size))
In [0]:
# A helper function to evaluate the TF Lite model using "test" dataset.
def evaluate_tflite_model(tflite_model):
# Initialize TFLite interpreter using the model.
interpreter = tf.lite.Interpreter(model_content=tflite_model)
interpreter.allocate_tensors()
input_tensor_index = interpreter.get_input_details()[0]["index"]
output = interpreter.tensor(interpreter.get_output_details()[0]["index"])
# Run predictions on every image in the "test" dataset.
prediction_digits = []
for test_image in test_images:
# Pre-processing: add batch dimension and convert to float32 to match with
# the model's input data format.
test_image = np.expand_dims(test_image, axis=0).astype(np.float32)
interpreter.set_tensor(input_tensor_index, test_image)
# Run inference.
interpreter.invoke()
# Post-processing: remove batch dimension and find the digit with highest
# probability.
digit = np.argmax(output()[0])
prediction_digits.append(digit)
# Compare prediction results with ground truth labels to calculate accuracy.
accurate_count = 0
for index in range(len(prediction_digits)):
if prediction_digits[index] == test_labels[index]:
accurate_count += 1
accuracy = accurate_count * 1.0 / len(prediction_digits)
return accuracy
# Evaluate the TF Lite float model. You'll find that its accurary is identical
# to the original TF (Keras) model because they are essentially the same model
# stored in different format.
float_accuracy = evaluate_tflite_model(tflite_float_model)
print('Float model accuracy = %.4f' % float_accuracy)
# Evalualte the TF Lite quantized model.
# Don't be surprised if you see quantized model accuracy is higher than
# the original float model. It happens sometimes :)
quantized_accuracy = evaluate_tflite_model(tflite_quantized_model)
print('Quantized model accuracy = %.4f' % quantized_accuracy)
print('Accuracy drop = %.4f' % (float_accuracy - quantized_accuracy))

# Save the quantized model to file to the Downloads directory

This is the end of Step 2: Train a machine learning model in the codelab Build a handwritten digit classifier app with TensorFlow Lite. Let's go back to our codelab and proceed to the next step.
