问题


Imagine a fully-connected neural network with its last two layers of the following structure:

[Dense]
    units = 612
    activation = softplus

[Dense]
    units = 1
    activation = sigmoid

The output value of the net is 1, but I'd like to know what the input x to the sigmoidal function was (must be some high number, since sigm(x) is 1 here).

Folllowing indraforyou's answer I managed to retrieve the output and weights of Keras layers:

outputs = [layer.output for layer in model.layers[-2:]]
functors = [K.function( [model.input]+[K.learning_phase()], [out] ) for out in outputs]

test_input = np.array(...)
layer_outs = [func([test_input, 0.]) for func in functors]

print layer_outs[-1][0]  # -> array([[ 1.]])

dense_0_out = layer_outs[-2][0]                           # shape (612, 1)
dense_1_weights = model.layers[-1].weights[0].get_value() # shape (1, 612)
dense_1_bias = model.layers[-1].weights[1].get_value()

x = np.dot(dense_0_out, dense_1_weights) + dense_1_bias
print x # -> -11.7

How can x be a negative number? In that case the last layers output should be a number closer to 0.0 than 1.0. Are dense_0_out or dense_1_weights the wrong outputs or weights?

Since you're using get_value(), I'll assume that you're using Theano backend. To get the value of the node before the sigmoid activation, you can traverse the computation graph.

The graph can be traversed starting from outputs (the result of some computation) down to its inputs using the owner field.

In your case, what you want is the input x of the sigmoid activation op. The output of the sigmoid op is model.output. Putting these together, the variable x is model.output.owner.inputs[0].

If you print out this value, you'll see Elemwise{add,no_inplace}.0, which is an element-wise addition op. It can be verified from the source code of Dense.call():

def call(self, inputs):
    output = K.dot(inputs, self.kernel)
    if self.use_bias:
        output = K.bias_add(output, self.bias)
    if self.activation is not None:
        output = self.activation(output)
    return output

The input to the activation function is the output of K.bias_add().

With a small modification of your code, you can get the value of the node before activation:

x = model.output.owner.inputs[0]
func = K.function([model.input] + [K.learning_phase()], [x])
print func([test_input, 0.])

For anyone using TensorFlow backend: use x = model.output.op.inputs[0] instead.

I can see a simple way just changing a little the model structure. (See at the end how to use the existing model and change only the ending).

The advantages of this method are:

  • You don't have to guess if you're doing the right calculations
  • You don't need to care about the dropout layers and how to implement a dropout calculation
  • This is a pure Keras solution (applies to any backend, either Theano or Tensorflow).

There are two possible solutions below:

  • Option 1 - Create a new model from start with the proposed structure
  • Option 2 - Reuse an existing model changing only its ending

Model structure

You could just have the last dense separated in two layers at the end:

[Dense]
    units = 612
    activation = softplus

[Dense]
    units = 1
    #no activation

[Activation]
    activation = sigmoid

Then you simply get the output of the last dense layer.

I'd say you should create two models, one for training, the other for checking this value.

Option 1 - Building the models from the beginning:

from keras.models import Model

#build the initial part of the model the same way you would
#add the Dense layer without an activation:

#if using the functional Model API
    denseOut = Dense(1)(outputFromThePreviousLayer)    
    sigmoidOut = Activation('sigmoid')(denseOut)    

#if using the sequential model - will need the functional API
    model.add(Dense(1))
    sigmoidOut = Activation('sigmoid')(model.output)

Create two models from that, one for training, one for checking the output of dense:

#if using the functional API
    checkingModel = Model(yourInputs, denseOut)

#if using the sequential model:
    checkingModel = model   

trainingModel = Model(checkingModel.inputs, sigmoidOut)   

Use trianingModel for training normally. The two models share weights, so training one is training the other.

Use checkingModel just to see the outputs of the Dense layer, using checkingModel.predict(X)

Option 2 - Building this from an existing model:

from keras.models import Model

#find the softplus dense layer and get its output:
softplusOut = oldModel.layers[indexForSoftplusLayer].output
    #or should this be the output from the dropout? Whichever comes immediately after the last Dense(1)

#recreate the dense layer
outDense = Dense(1, name='newDense', ...)(softPlusOut)

#create the new model
checkingModel = Model(oldModel.inputs,outDense)

It's important, since you created a new Dense layer, to get the weights from the old one:

wgts = oldModel.layers[indexForDense].get_weights()
checkingModel.get_layer('newDense').set_weights(wgts)

In this case, training the old model will not update the last dense layer in the new model, so, let's create a trainingModel:

outSigmoid = Activation('sigmoid')(checkingModel.output)
trainingModel = Model(checkingModel.inputs,outSigmoid)

Use checkingModel for checking the values you want with checkingModel.predict(X). And train the trainingModel.

(TF backend) Solution for Conv layers.

I had the same question, and to rewrite a model's configuration was not an option. The simple hack would be to perform the call function manually. It gives control over the activation.

Copy-paste from the Keras source, with self changed to layer. You can do the same with any other layer.

def conv_no_activation(layer, inputs, activation=False):

    if layer.rank == 1:
        outputs = K.conv1d(
            inputs,
            layer.kernel,
            strides=layer.strides[0],
            padding=layer.padding,
            data_format=layer.data_format,
            dilation_rate=layer.dilation_rate[0])
    if layer.rank == 2:
        outputs = K.conv2d(
            inputs,
            layer.kernel,
            strides=layer.strides,
            padding=layer.padding,
            data_format=layer.data_format,
            dilation_rate=layer.dilation_rate)
    if layer.rank == 3:
        outputs = K.conv3d(
            inputs,
            layer.kernel,
            strides=layer.strides,
            padding=layer.padding,
            data_format=layer.data_format,
            dilation_rate=layer.dilation_rate)

    if layer.use_bias:
        outputs = K.bias_add(
            outputs,
            layer.bias,
            data_format=layer.data_format)

    if activation and layer.activation is not None:
        outputs = layer.activation(outputs)

    return outputs

Now we need to modify the main function a little. First, identify the layer by its name. Then retrieve activations from the previous layer. And at last, compute the output from the target layer.

def get_output_activation_control(model, images, layername, activation=False):
    """Get activations for the input from specified layer"""

    inp = model.input

    layer_id, layer = [(n, l) for n, l in enumerate(model.layers) if l.name == layername][0]
    prev_layer = model.layers[layer_id - 1]
    conv_out = conv_no_activation(layer, prev_layer.output, activation=activation)
    functor = K.function([inp] + [K.learning_phase()], [conv_out]) 

    return functor([images]) 

Here is a tiny test. I'm using VGG16 model.

a_relu = get_output_activation_control(vgg_model, img, 'block4_conv1', activation=True)[0]
a_no_relu = get_output_activation_control(vgg_model, img, 'block4_conv1', activation=False)[0]

print(np.sum(a_no_relu < 0))
> 245293

Set all negatives to zero to compare with the results retrieved after an embedded in VGG16 ReLu operation.

a_no_relu[a_no_relu < 0] = 0
print(np.allclose(a_relu, a_no_relu))
> True
