学习笔记 TF020:序列标注、手写小写字母 OCR 数据集、双向 RNN

[cralison]

序列标注(sequence labelling)，输入序列每一帧预测一个类别。OCR(Optical Character Recognition 光学字符识别)。

MIT 口语系统研究组 Rob Kassel 收集，斯坦福大学人工智能实验室 Ben Taskar 预处理 OCR 数据集( http://ai.stanford.edu/~btaskar/ocr/ )，包含大量单独手写小写字母，每个样本对应 16X8 像素二值图像。字线组合序列，序列对应单词。6800 个，长度不超过 14 字母的单词。gzip 压缩，内容用 Tab 分隔文本文件。Python csv 模块直接读取。文件每行一个归一化字母属性，ID 号、标签、像素值、下一字母 ID 号等。

下一字母 ID 值排序，按照正确顺序读取每个单词字母。收集字母，直到下一个 ID 对应字段未被设置为止。读取新序列。读取完目标字母及数据像素，用零图像填充序列对象，能纳入两个较大目标字母所有像素数据 NumPy 数组。

时间步之间共享 softmax 层。数据和目标数组包含序列，每个目标字母对应一个图像帧。RNN 扩展，每个字母输出添加 softmax 分类器。分类器对每帧数据而非整个序列评估预测结果。计算序列长度。一个 softmax 层添加到所有帧：或者为所有帧添加几个不同分类器，或者令所有帧共享同一个分类器。共享分类器，权值在训练中被调整次数更多，训练单词每个字母。一个全连接层权值矩阵维数 batch_sizein_sizeout_size。现需要在两个输入维度 batch_size、sequence_steps 更新权值矩阵。令输入(RNN 输出活性值)扁平为形状 batch_sizesequence_stepsin_size。权值矩阵变成较大的批数据。结果反扁平化(unflatten)。

代价函数，序列每一帧有预测目标对，在相应维度平均。依据张量长度(序列最大长度)归一化的 tf.reduce_mean 无法使用。需要按照实际序列长度归一化，手工调用 tf.reduce_sum 和除法运算均值。

损失函数，tf.argmax 针对轴 2 非轴 1,各帧填充，依据序列实际长度计算均值。tf.reduce_mean 对批数据所有单词取均值。

TensorFlow 自动导数计算，可使用序列分类相同优化运算，只需要代入新代价函数。对所有 RNN 梯度裁剪，防止训练发散，避免负面影响。

训练模型，get_sataset 下载手写体图像，预处理，小写字母独热编码向量。随机打乱数据顺序，分偏划分训练集、测试集。

单词相邻字母存在依赖关系(或互信息)，RNN 保存同一单词全部输入信息到隐含活性值。前几个字母分类，网络无大量输入推断额外信息，双向 RNN(bidirectional RNN)克服缺陷。 两个 RNN 观测输入序列，一个按照通常顺序从左端读取单词，另一个按照相反顺序从右端读取单词。每个时间步得到两个输出活性值。送入共享 softmax 层前，拼接。分类器从每个字母获取完整单词信息。tf.modle.rnn.bidirectional_rnn 已实现。

实现双向 RNN。划分预测属性到两个函数，只关注较少内容。_shared_softmax 函数，传入函数张量 data 推断输入尺寸。复用其他架构函数，相同扁平化技巧在所有时间步共享同一个 softmax 层。rnn.dynamic_rnn 创建两个 RNN。 序列反转，比实现新反向传递 RNN 运算容易。tf.reverse_sequence 函数反转帧数据中 sequence_lengths 帧。数据流图节点有名称。scope 参数是 rnn_dynamic_cell 变量 scope 名称，默认值 RNN。两个参数不同 RNN，需要不同域。 反转序列送入后向 RNN，网络输出反转，和前向输出对齐。沿 RNN 神经元输出维度拼接两个张量，返回。双向 RNN 模型性能更优。
