Theano Cost Function, TypeError: Unknown parameter type: <class 'numpy.ndarray'>

问题

I'm new to Theano, just learning it. I have a ANN in python that I'm implementing in Theano as learning process. I'm using Spyder.

And Theano throws out an error: TypeError: Unknown parameter type: class 'numpy.ndarray'

I'm not sure where the error is. Is it in the cost function or in the gradient descent? And what is the typical reason for it?

Here is my code:

X = T.dmatrix()
y = T.dmatrix()

X_input = np.genfromtxt('X.csv',delimiter=',') #5000x195
y_input = np.genfromtxt('y.csv',delimiter=',')  #5000x75

input_layer_size, hidden_layer_size_1, hidden_layer_size_2, y_size = 195, 15, 15, 75

theta1 = theano.shared(np.array(np.random.rand(hidden_layer_size_1, (input_layer_size+1)), dtype=theano.config.floatX))
theta2 = theano.shared(np.array(np.random.rand(hidden_layer_size_2, (hidden_layer_size_1+1)), dtype=theano.config.floatX))
theta3 = theano.shared(np.array(np.random.rand(y_size, hidden_layer_size_2+1), dtype=theano.config.floatX))

def computeCost(X, y, w1, w2, w3):
    m = X.shape[0]
    b = T.ones((m,1))
    a_1 = T.concatenate([b, X], axis=1)
    z_2 = T.dot(a_1, T.transpose(w1))
    a_2 = T.nnet.nnet.sigmoid(z_2)
    a_2 = T.concatenate([b, a_2], axis=1)
    z_3 = T.dot(a_2, T.transpose(w2))
    a_3 = T.nnet.nnet.sigmoid(z_3)
    a_3 = T.concatenate([b, a_3], axis=1)
    z_4 = T.dot(a_3, T.transpose(w3))
    h   = T.nnet.nnet.sigmoid(z_4)
    cost = T.sum(-y * T.log(h) - (1-y) * T.log(1-h))/m
    return cost

fc = computeCost(X, y, theta1, theta2, theta3)

def grad_desc(cost, theta):
    alpha = 0.1 #learning rate
    return theta - (alpha * T.grad(cost, wrt=theta))

cost = theano.function(inputs=[X_input, y_input], outputs=fc, updates=[
        (theta1, grad_desc(fc, theta1)),
        (theta2, grad_desc(fc, theta2)),
        (theta3, grad_desc(fc, theta3))])

My last code generated this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

In your theano.function your inputs are numpy arrays (X_input and y_input). You want the inputs to be symbolic variables, such as:

cost = theano.function(inputs=[X, y], outputs=fc, updates=[

This will create a function which can be called with numpy arrays to perform the actual computation, as in:

actual_cost = cost(X_input, y_input)
