tensorflow - 与 tensorflow.keras 相比，使用 keras 在 mnist 上的测试准确度明显更高

Question

我正在用一个基本示例验证我的 TensorFlow (v2.2.0)、Cuda (10.1) 和 cudnn (libcudnn7-dev_7.6.5.32-1+cuda10.1_amd64.deb) 并且我得到了奇怪的结果......

当在 Keras 中运行以下示例时，如 https://keras.io/examples/mnist_cnn/ 所示我得到了 ~99% 的 acc @validation。当我调整通过 TensorFlow 运行的导入时，我只得到 86%。

我可能忘记了什么。

使用 tensorflow 运行:

from __future__ import print_function

import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.keras.datasets import mnist
from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense, Dropout, Flatten
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Conv2D, MaxPooling2D
from tensorflow.keras import backend as K

batch_size = 128
num_classes = 10
epochs = 12

# input image dimensions
img_rows, img_cols = 28, 28

# the data, split between train and test sets
(x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = mnist.load_data()

if K.image_data_format() == 'channels_first':
    x_train = x_train.reshape(x_train.shape[0], 1, img_rows, img_cols)
    x_test = x_test.reshape(x_test.shape[0], 1, img_rows, img_cols)
    input_shape = (1, img_rows, img_cols)
else:
    x_train = x_train.reshape(x_train.shape[0], img_rows, img_cols, 1)
    x_test = x_test.reshape(x_test.shape[0], img_rows, img_cols, 1)
    input_shape = (img_rows, img_cols, 1)

x_train = x_train.astype('float32')
x_test = x_test.astype('float32')
x_train /= 255
x_test /= 255
print('x_train shape:', x_train.shape)
print(x_train.shape[0], 'train samples')
print(x_test.shape[0], 'test samples')

# convert class vectors to binary class matrices
y_train = tf.keras.utils.to_categorical(y_train, num_classes)
y_test = tf.keras.utils.to_categorical(y_test, num_classes)

model = Sequential()
model.add(Conv2D(32, kernel_size=(3, 3),
                 activation='relu',
                 input_shape=input_shape))
model.add(Conv2D(64, (3, 3), activation='relu'))
model.add(MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)))
model.add(Dropout(0.25))
model.add(Flatten())
model.add(Dense(128, activation='relu'))
model.add(Dropout(0.5))
model.add(Dense(num_classes, activation='softmax'))

model.compile(loss=tf.keras.losses.categorical_crossentropy,
              optimizer=tf.optimizers.Adadelta(),
              metrics=['accuracy'])

model.fit(x_train, y_train,
          batch_size=batch_size,
          epochs=epochs,
          verbose=1,
          validation_data=(x_test, y_test))
score = model.evaluate(x_test, y_test, verbose=0)
print('Test loss:', score[0])
print('Test accuracy:', score[1])

可悲的是，我得到以下输出:

远不及我导入 Keras 时的 99.25%。
我错过了什么？

Answer 1

keras 和 tensorflow.keras 之间优化器参数的差异

所以问题的关键在于 Keras 和 Tensorflow 中 Adadelta 优化器的不同默认参数。具体来说，不同的学习率。我们可以通过简单的检查看到这一点。使用 Keras 版本的代码，print(keras.optimizers.Adadelta().get_config())输出

{'learning_rate': 1.0, 'rho': 0.95, 'decay': 0.0, 'epsilon': 1e-07}

在 Tensorflow 版本中， print(tf.optimizers.Adadelta().get_config()给我们

{'name': 'Adadelta', 'learning_rate': 0.001, 'decay': 0.0, 'rho': 0.95, 'epsilon': 1e-07}

正如我们所见，Adadelta 优化器的学习率之间存在差异。 Keras 的默认学习率为 1.0而 Tensorflow 的默认学习率为 0.001 (与他们的其他优化器一致)。

更高学习率的影响

由于 Keras 版本的 Adadelta 优化器具有更大的学习率，因此收敛速度更快，并在 12 个 epoch 内实现了高精度，而 Tensorflow Adadelta 优化器需要更长的训练时间。如果增加训练 epoch 的数量，Tensorflow 模型也有可能达到 99% 的准确率。

修复

但不是增加训练时间，我们可以通过将 Adadelta 的学习率更改为 1.0 来简单地初始化 Tensorflow 模型，使其行为与 Keras 模型类似。 . IE。

model.compile(
    loss=tf.keras.losses.categorical_crossentropy,
    optimizer=tf.optimizers.Adadelta(learning_rate=1.0), # Note the new learning rate
    metrics=['accuracy'])

进行此更改后，我们将在 Tensorflow 上获得以下性能:

Epoch 12/12
60000/60000 [==============================] - 102s 2ms/sample - loss: 0.0287 - accuracy: 0.9911 - val_loss: 0.0291 - val_accuracy: 0.9907
Test loss: 0.029134796149221757
Test accuracy: 0.9907

这接近于所需的 99.25% 准确度。

附言顺便说一句，Keras 和 Tensorflow 之间的不同默认参数似乎是一个已知问题，该问题已修复但随后又恢复了:
