Softmax Regression Implementation from Scratch⚓︎

:label:sec_softmax_scratch

Because softmax regression is so fundamental, we believe that you ought to know how to implement it yourself. Here, we limit ourselves to defining the softmax-specific aspects of the model and reuse the other components from our linear regression section, including the training loop.

The Softmax⚓︎

Let's begin with the most important part: the mapping from scalars to probabilities. For a refresher, recall the operation of the sum operator along specific dimensions in a tensor, as discussed in :numref:subsec_lin-alg-reduction and :numref:subsec_lin-alg-non-reduction. [Given a matrix X we can sum over all elements (by default) or only over elements in the same axis.] The axis variable lets us compute row and column sums:

%%tab all
X = d2l.tensor([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0]])
d2l.reduce_sum(X, 0, keepdims=True), d2l.reduce_sum(X, 1, keepdims=True)

Computing the softmax requires three steps: (i) exponentiation of each term; (ii) a sum over each row to compute the normalization constant for each example; (iii) division of each row by its normalization constant, ensuring that the result sums to 1:

( (\(\mathrm{softmax}(\mathbf{X})_{ij} = \frac{\exp(\mathbf{X}_{ij})}{\sum_k \exp(\mathbf{X}_{ik})}.\)\) )

The (logarithm of the) denominator is called the (log) partition function. It was introduced in statistical physics to sum over all possible states in a thermodynamic ensemble. The implementation is straightforward:

%%tab all
def softmax(X):
    X_exp = d2l.exp(X)
    partition = d2l.reduce_sum(X_exp, 1, keepdims=True)
    return X_exp / partition  # The broadcasting mechanism is applied here

For any input X, [we turn each element into a nonnegative number. Each row sums up to 1,] as is required for a probability. Caution: the code above is not robust against very large or very small arguments. While it is sufficient to illustrate what is happening, you should not use this code verbatim for any serious purpose. Deep learning frameworks have such protections built in and we will be using the built-in softmax going forward.

%%tab mxnet
X = d2l.rand(2, 5)
X_prob = softmax(X)
X_prob, d2l.reduce_sum(X_prob, 1)

%%tab tensorflow, pytorch
X = d2l.rand((2, 5))
X_prob = softmax(X)
X_prob, d2l.reduce_sum(X_prob, 1)

%%tab jax
X = jax.random.uniform(jax.random.PRNGKey(d2l.get_seed()), (2, 5))
X_prob = softmax(X)
X_prob, d2l.reduce_sum(X_prob, 1)

The Model⚓︎

We now have everything that we need to implement [the softmax regression model.] As in our linear regression example, each instance will be represented by a fixed-length vector. Since the raw data here consists of \(28 \times 28\) pixel images, [we flatten each image, treating them as vectors of length 784.] In later chapters, we will introduce convolutional neural networks, which exploit the spatial structure in a more satisfying way.

In softmax regression, the number of outputs from our network should be equal to the number of classes. (Since our dataset has 10 classes, our network has an output dimension of 10.) Consequently, our weights constitute a \(784 \times 10\) matrix plus a \(1 \times 10\) row vector for the biases. As with linear regression, we initialize the weights W with Gaussian noise. The biases are initialized as zeros.

%%tab mxnet
class SoftmaxRegressionScratch(d2l.Classifier):
    def __init__(self, num_inputs, num_outputs, lr, sigma=0.01):
        super().__init__()
        self.save_hyperparameters()
        self.W = np.random.normal(0, sigma, (num_inputs, num_outputs))
        self.b = np.zeros(num_outputs)
        self.W.attach_grad()
        self.b.attach_grad()

    def collect_params(self):
        return [self.W, self.b]

%%tab pytorch
class SoftmaxRegressionScratch(d2l.Classifier):
    def __init__(self, num_inputs, num_outputs, lr, sigma=0.01):
        super().__init__()
        self.save_hyperparameters()
        self.W = torch.normal(0, sigma, size=(num_inputs, num_outputs),
                              requires_grad=True)
        self.b = torch.zeros(num_outputs, requires_grad=True)

    def parameters(self):
        return [self.W, self.b]

%%tab tensorflow
class SoftmaxRegressionScratch(d2l.Classifier):
    def __init__(self, num_inputs, num_outputs, lr, sigma=0.01):
        super().__init__()
        self.save_hyperparameters()
        self.W = tf.random.normal((num_inputs, num_outputs), 0, sigma)
        self.b = tf.zeros(num_outputs)
        self.W = tf.Variable(self.W)
        self.b = tf.Variable(self.b)

%%tab jax
class SoftmaxRegressionScratch(d2l.Classifier):
    num_inputs: int
    num_outputs: int
    lr: float
    sigma: float = 0.01

    def setup(self):
        self.W = self.param('W', nn.initializers.normal(self.sigma),
                            (self.num_inputs, self.num_outputs))
        self.b = self.param('b', nn.initializers.zeros, self.num_outputs)

The code below defines how the network maps each input to an output. Note that we flatten each \(28 \times 28\) pixel image in the batch into a vector using reshape before passing the data through our model.

%%tab all
@d2l.add_to_class(SoftmaxRegressionScratch)
def forward(self, X):
    X = d2l.reshape(X, (-1, self.W.shape[0]))
    return softmax(d2l.matmul(X, self.W) + self.b)

The Cross-Entropy Loss⚓︎

Next we need to implement the cross-entropy loss function (introduced in :numref:subsec_softmax-regression-loss-func). This may be the most common loss function in all of deep learning. At the moment, applications of deep learning easily cast as classification problems far outnumber those better treated as regression problems.

Recall that cross-entropy takes the negative log-likelihood of the predicted probability assigned to the true label. For efficiency we avoid Python for-loops and use indexing instead. In particular, the one-hot encoding in \(\mathbf{y}\) allows us to select the matching terms in \(\hat{\mathbf{y}}\).

To see this in action we [create sample data y_hat with 2 examples of predicted probabilities over 3 classes and their corresponding labels y.] The correct labels are \(0\) and \(2\) respectively (i.e., the first and third class). [Using y as the indices of the probabilities in y_hat,] we can pick out terms efficiently.

%%tab mxnet, pytorch, jax
y = d2l.tensor([0, 2])
y_hat = d2l.tensor([[0.1, 0.3, 0.6], [0.3, 0.2, 0.5]])
y_hat[[0, 1], y]

%%tab tensorflow
y_hat = tf.constant([[0.1, 0.3, 0.6], [0.3, 0.2, 0.5]])
y = tf.constant([0, 2])
tf.boolean_mask(y_hat, tf.one_hot(y, depth=y_hat.shape[-1]))

:begin_tab:pytorch, mxnet, tensorflow Now we can (implement the cross-entropy loss function) by averaging over the logarithms of the selected probabilities. :end_tab:

:begin_tab:jax Now we can (implement the cross-entropy loss function) by averaging over the logarithms of the selected probabilities.

Note that to make use of jax.jit to speed up JAX implementations, and to make sure loss is a pure function, the cross_entropy function is re-defined inside the loss to avoid usage of any global variables or functions which may render the loss function impure. We refer interested readers to the JAX documentation on jax.jit and pure functions. :end_tab:

%%tab mxnet, pytorch, jax
def cross_entropy(y_hat, y):
    return -d2l.reduce_mean(d2l.log(y_hat[list(range(len(y_hat))), y]))

cross_entropy(y_hat, y)

%%tab tensorflow
def cross_entropy(y_hat, y):
    return -tf.reduce_mean(tf.math.log(tf.boolean_mask(
        y_hat, tf.one_hot(y, depth=y_hat.shape[-1]))))

cross_entropy(y_hat, y)

%%tab pytorch, mxnet, tensorflow
@d2l.add_to_class(SoftmaxRegressionScratch)
def loss(self, y_hat, y):
    return cross_entropy(y_hat, y)

%%tab jax
@d2l.add_to_class(SoftmaxRegressionScratch)
@partial(jax.jit, static_argnums=(0))
def loss(self, params, X, y, state):
    def cross_entropy(y_hat, y):
        return -d2l.reduce_mean(d2l.log(y_hat[list(range(len(y_hat))), y]))
    y_hat = state.apply_fn({'params': params}, *X)
    # The returned empty dictionary is a placeholder for auxiliary data,
    # which will be used later (e.g., for batch norm)
    return cross_entropy(y_hat, y), {}

Training⚓︎

We reuse the fit method defined in :numref:sec_linear_scratch to [train the model with 10 epochs.] Note that the number of epochs (max_epochs), the minibatch size (batch_size), and learning rate (lr) are adjustable hyperparameters. That means that while these values are not learned during our primary training loop, they still influence the performance of our model, both vis-à-vis training and generalization performance. In practice you will want to choose these values based on the validation split of the data and then, ultimately, to evaluate your final model on the test split. As discussed in :numref:subsec_generalization-model-selection, we will regard the test data of Fashion-MNIST as the validation set, thus reporting validation loss and validation accuracy on this split.

%%tab all
data = d2l.FashionMNIST(batch_size=256)
model = SoftmaxRegressionScratch(num_inputs=784, num_outputs=10, lr=0.1)
trainer = d2l.Trainer(max_epochs=10)
trainer.fit(model, data)

Prediction⚓︎

Now that training is complete, our model is ready to [classify some images.]

%%tab all
X, y = next(iter(data.val_dataloader()))
if tab.selected('pytorch', 'mxnet', 'tensorflow'):
    preds = d2l.argmax(model(X), axis=1)
if tab.selected('jax'):
    preds = d2l.argmax(model.apply({'params': trainer.state.params}, X), axis=1)
preds.shape

We are more interested in the images we label incorrectly. We visualize them by comparing their actual labels (first line of text output) with the predictions from the model (second line of text output).

%%tab all
wrong = d2l.astype(preds, y.dtype) != y
X, y, preds = X[wrong], y[wrong], preds[wrong]
labels = [a+'\n'+b for a, b in zip(
    data.text_labels(y), data.text_labels(preds))]
data.visualize([X, y], labels=labels)

Summary⚓︎

By now we are starting to get some experience with solving linear regression and classification problems. With it, we have reached what would arguably be the state of the art of 1960--1970s of statistical modeling. In the next section, we will show you how to leverage deep learning frameworks to implement this model much more efficiently.

Exercises⚓︎

  1. In this section, we directly implemented the softmax function based on the mathematical definition of the softmax operation. As discussed in :numref:sec_softmax this can cause numerical instabilities.
    1. Test whether softmax still works correctly if an input has a value of \(100\).
    2. Test whether softmax still works correctly if the largest of all inputs is smaller than \(-100\).
    3. Implement a fix by looking at the value relative to the largest entry in the argument.
  2. Implement a cross_entropy function that follows the definition of the cross-entropy loss function \(\sum_i y_i \log \hat{y}_i\).
    1. Try it out in the code example of this section.
    2. Why do you think it runs more slowly?
    3. Should you use it? When would it make sense to?
    4. What do you need to be careful of? Hint: consider the domain of the logarithm.
  3. Is it always a good idea to return the most likely label? For example, would you do this for medical diagnosis? How would you try to address this?
  4. Assume that we want to use softmax regression to predict the next word based on some features. What are some problems that might arise from a large vocabulary?
  5. Experiment with the hyperparameters of the code in this section. In particular:
    1. Plot how the validation loss changes as you change the learning rate.
    2. Do the validation and training loss change as you change the minibatch size? How large or small do you need to go before you see an effect?
