<h1><span class="section-number">17. </span>Recurrent neural networks: Overarching view<a class="headerlink" href="#recurrent-neural-networks-overarching-view" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h1>
<p>Till now our focus has been, including convolutional neural networks
as well, on feedforward neural networks. The output or the activations
flow only in one direction, from the input layer to the output layer.</p>
<p>A recurrent neural network (RNN) looks very much like a feedforward
neural network, except that it also has connections pointing
backward.</p>
<p>RNNs are used to analyze time series data such as stock prices, and
tell you when to buy or sell. In autonomous driving systems, they can
anticipate car trajectories and help avoid accidents. More generally,
they can work on sequences of arbitrary lengths, rather than on
fixed-sized inputs like all the nets we have discussed so far. For
example, they can take sentences, documents, or audio samples as
input, making them extremely useful for natural language processing
systems such as automatic translation and speech-to-text.</p>

<p>The following code provides an example of how recurrent neural
networks can be used to extrapolate to unknown values of physics data
sets. Specifically, the data sets used in this program come from
a quantum mechanical many-body calculation of energies as functions of the number of particles.</p>

<p>The way the recurrent neural networks are trained in this program
differs from how machine learning algorithms are usually trained.
Typically a machine learning algorithm is trained by learning the
relationship between the x data and the y data. In this program, the
recurrent neural network will be trained to recognize the relationship
in a sequence of y values. This is type of data formatting is
typically used time series forcasting, but it can also be used in any
extrapolation (time series forecasting is just a specific type of
extrapolation along the time axis). This method of data formatting
does not use the x data and assumes that the y data are evenly spaced.</p>
<p>For a standard machine learning algorithm, the training data has the
form of (x,y) so the machine learning algorithm learns to assiciate a
y value with a given x value. This is useful when the test data has x
values within the same range as the training data. However, for this
application, the x values of the test data are outside of the x values
of the training data and the traditional method of training a machine
learning algorithm does not work as well. For this reason, the
recurrent neural network is trained on sequences of y values of the
form ((y1, y2), y3), so that the network is concerned with learning
the pattern of the y data and not the relation between the x and y
data. As long as the pattern of y data outside of the training region
stays relatively stable compared to what was inside the training
region, this method of training can produce accurate extrapolations to
y values far removed from the training data set.</p>

<p>Changing the size of the recurrent neural network and its parameters
can drastically change the results you get from the model. The below
code takes the simple recurrent neural network from above and adds a
second hidden layer, changes the number of neurons in the hidden
layer, and explicitly declares the activation function of the hidden
layers to be a sigmoid function. The loss function and optimizer can
also be changed but are kept the same as the above network. These
parameters can be tuned to provide the optimal result from the
network. For some ideas on how to improve the performance of a

<p>Besides a simple recurrent neural network layer, there are two other
commonly used types of recurrent neural network layers: Long Short
Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU). For a short
introduction to these layers see <a class="reference external" href="https://medium.com/mindboard/lstm-vs-gru-experimental-comparison-955820c21e8b">https://medium.com/mindboard/lstm-vs-gru-experimental-comparison-955820c21e8b</a>

<p>The first network created below is similar to the previous network,
but it replaces the SimpleRNN layers with LSTM layers. The second
network below has two hidden layers made up of GRUs, which are
preceeded by two dense (feeddorward) neural network layers. These
dense layers “preprocess” the data before it reaches the recurrent
layers. This architecture has been shown to improve the performance
of recurrent neural networks (see the link above and also

<p><strong>Generative models</strong> describe a class of statistical models that are a contrast
to <strong>discriminative models</strong>. Informally we say that generative models can
generate new data instances while discriminative models discriminate between
different kinds of data instances. A generative model could generate new photos
of animals that look like real animals while a discriminative model could tell
a dog from a cat. More formally, given a data set <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(x\)</span> and a set of labels /
targets <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(y\)</span>. Generative models capture the joint probability <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(p(x, y)\)</span>, or
just <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(p(x)\)</span> if there are no labels, while discriminative models capture the
conditional probability <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(p(y | x)\)</span>. Discriminative models generally try to draw
boundaries in the data space (often high dimensional), while generative models
try to model how data is placed throughout the space.</p>

in 2014 (short and good article).</p>
<p>The simplest formulation of
the model is based on a game theoretic approach, <em>zero sum game</em>, where we pit
two neural networks against one another. We define two rival networks, one
generator <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(g\)</span>, and one discriminator <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(d\)</span>. The generator directly produces
samples</p>

<p>The discriminator attempts to distinguish between samples drawn from the
training data and samples drawn from the generator. In other words, it tries to
tell the difference between the fake data produced by <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(g\)</span> and the actual data
samples we want to do prediction on. The discriminator outputs a probability

<p>During learning both of the networks maximize their own reward function, so that
the generator gets better and better at tricking the discriminator, while the
discriminator gets better and better at telling the difference between the fake
and real data. The generator and discriminator alternate on which one trains at
one time (i.e. for one epoch). In other words, we keep the generator constant
and train the discriminator, then we keep the discriminator constant to train
the generator and repeat. It is this back and forth dynamic which lets GANs
tackle otherwise intractable generative problems. As the generator improves with
training, the discriminators performance gets worse because it cannot easily
tell the difference between real and fake. If the generator ends up succeeding
perfectly, the the discriminator will do no better than random guessing i.e.
50%. This progression in the training poses a problem for the convergence
criteria for GANs. The discriminator feedback gets less meaningful over time,
if we continue training after this point then the generator is effectively
training on junk data which can undo the learning up to that point. Therefore,
we stop training when the discriminator starts outputting <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(1/2\)</span> everywhere.</p>
<p>At convergence we have</p>

<p>This is in
general not the case and it is possible to get situations where the training
process never converges because the generator and discriminator chase one
another around in the parameter space indefinitely. A much deeper discussion on
the currently open research problem of GAN convergence is available
<a class="reference external" href="https://www.deeplearningbook.org/contents/generative_models.html">here</a>. To
anyone interested in learning more about GANs it is a highly recommended read.
Direct quote: “In this best-performing formulation, the generator aims to
increase the log probability that the discriminator makes a mistake, rather than
aiming to decrease the log probability that the discriminator makes the correct
prediction.” <a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1701.00160">Another interesting read</a></p>

<p>Now we define our two models. This is where the magic happens. There are a
huge amount of possible formulations for both models. A lot of engineering and
trial and error can be done here to try to produce better performing models. For
more advanced GANs this is by far the step where you can make or break a
model.</p>
<p>We start with the generator. As stated in the introductory text the generator
<span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(g\)</span> upsamples from a random sample to the shape of what we want to predict. In
our case we are trying to predict MNIST images (<span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(28\times 28\)</span> pixels).</p>
<div class="cell docutils container">
<div class="cell_input docutils container">
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>def generator_model():
&quot;&quot;&quot;
The generator uses upsampling layers tf.keras.layers.Conv2DTranspose() to
produce an image from a random seed. We start with a Dense layer taking this
random sample as an input and subsequently upsample through multiple
convolutional layers.
&quot;&quot;&quot;
# we define our model
model = tf.keras.Sequential()
# adding our input layer. Dense means that every neuron is connected and
# the input shape is the shape of our random noise. The units need to match
# in some sense the upsampling strides to reach our desired output shape.
# we are using 100 random numbers as our seed
model.add(layers.Dense(units=7*7*BATCH_SIZE,
use_bias=False,
input_shape=(100, )))
# we normalize the output form the Dense layer
model.add(layers.BatchNormalization())
# and add an activation function to our &#39;layer&#39;. LeakyReLU avoids vanishing
# gradient problem
model.add(layers.LeakyReLU())
model.add(layers.Reshape((7, 7, BATCH_SIZE)))
assert model.output_shape == (None, 7, 7, BATCH_SIZE)
# even though we just added four keras layers we think of everything above
# as &#39;one&#39; layer
# next we add our upscaling convolutional layers

kernel_size=(5, 5),
strides=(1, 1),
padding=&#39;same&#39;,

model.add(layers.BatchNormalization())
model.add(layers.LeakyReLU())

model.add(layers.Conv2DTranspose(filters=64,

<p>And there we have our simple generator model. Now we move on to defining our
discriminator model <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(d\)</span>, which is a convolutional neural network based image
classifier.</p>

<p>Let us take a look at our models.</p>

<p>Next we need a few helper objects we will use in training</p>
<div class="cell docutils container">

<p>The first object, <em>cross_entropy</em> is our loss function and the two others are

is because they need to improve their accuracy at approximately equal speeds to

total_loss = real_loss + fake_loss

<p>Now we have everything we need to define our training step, which we will apply
for every step in our training loop. Notice the &#64;tf.function flag signifying

computation time.</p>

<p>We see that the generator generates images that look like MNIST

to generate a similar plot where we generate every MNIST number. Let us now try

<p>Again, we have found something interesting. <em>Moving</em> around using our means
takes us from digit to digit, while <em>moving</em> around using our standard
deviations seem to increase the number of different digits! In the last image

this information by upping the standard deviation of our Gaussian noises.</p>

<p>A pretty cool result! We see that our generator indeed has learned a
distribution which qualitatively looks a whole lot like the MNIST dataset.</p>
<p>Another interesting way to explore the latent space of our generator model is by
interpolating between the MNIST digits. This section is largely based on
