Tensorboard

Integration with tensorboard

/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/torch/cuda/__init__.py:52: UserWarning: CUDA initialization: Found no NVIDIA driver on your system. Please check that you have an NVIDIA GPU and installed a driver from http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx (Triggered internally at  /pytorch/c10/cuda/CUDAFunctions.cpp:100.)
  return torch._C._cuda_getDeviceCount() > 0

First thing first, you need to install tensorboard with

pip install tensorboard

Then launch tensorboard with

tensorboard --logdir=runs

in your terminal. You can change the logdir as long as it matches the log_dir you pass to TensorBoardCallback (default is runs in the working directory).

Tensorboard Embedding Projector support

Tensorboard Embedding Projector is currently only supported for image classification

Export Image Features during Training

Tensorboard Embedding Projector is supported in TensorBoardCallback (set parameter projector=True) during training. The validation set embeddings will be written after each epoch.

cbs = [TensorBoardCallback(projector=True)]
learn = cnn_learner(dls, resnet18, metrics=accuracy)
learn.fit_one_cycle(3, cbs=cbs)

Export Image Features during Inference

To write the embeddings for a custom dataset (e. g. after loading a learner) use TensorBoardProjectorCallback. Add the callback manually to the learner.

learn = load_learner('path/to/export.pkl')
learn.add_cb(TensorBoardProjectorCallback())
dl = learn.dls.test_dl(files, with_labels=True)
_ = learn.get_preds(dl=dl)

If using a custom model (non fastai-resnet) pass the layer where the embeddings should be extracted as a callback-parameter.

layer = learn.model[1][1]
cbs = [TensorBoardProjectorCallback(layer=layer)]
preds = learn.get_preds(dl=dl, cbs=cbs)

Export Word Embeddings from Language Models

To export word embeddings from Language Models (tested with AWD_LSTM (fast.ai) and GPT2 / BERT (transformers)) but works with every model that contains an embedding layer.

For a fast.ai TextLearner or LMLearner just pass the learner - the embedding layer and vocab will be extracted automatically:

dls = TextDataLoaders.from_folder(untar_data(URLs.IMDB), valid='test')
learn = text_classifier_learner(dls, AWD_LSTM, drop_mult=0.5, metrics=accuracy)
projector_word_embeddings(learn=learn, limit=2000, start=2000)

For other language models - like the ones in the transformers library - you’ll have to pass the layer and vocab. Here’s an example for a BERT model.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased")
# get the word embedding layer
layer = model.embeddings.word_embeddings
# get and sort vocab
vocab_dict = tokenizer.get_vocab()
vocab = [k for k, v in sorted(vocab_dict.items(), key=lambda x: x[1])]
# write the embeddings for tb projector
projector_word_embeddings(layer=layer, vocab=vocab, limit=2000, start=2000)
