Usage
Generate TFRecords
If your data is in CSV format, generate TFRecords like this.
cd ./data/cancer/
./generatecsvtfrecords.py
If your data is in LIBSVM format, generate TFRecords like this.
cd ./data/a8a/
./generatelibsvmtfrecord.py
For large dataset, you can use Spark to do that. Please refer to data.
Run Training
You can train with the default configuration.
./dense_classifier.py
./sparse_classifier.py
Using different models or hyperparameters is easy with TensorFlow flags.
./denseclassifier.py --batchsize 1024 --epochnumber 1000 --steptovalidate 10 --optmizier adagrad --model dnn --modelnetwork "128 32 8"
If you use other dataset like iris, no need to modify the code. Just run with parameters to specify the TFRecords files.
./denseclassifier.py --trainfile ./data/iris/iristrain.csv.tfrecords --validatefile ./data/iris/iristest.csv.tfrecords --featuresize 4 --labelsize 3 --enablecolored_log
./denseclassifier.py --trainfile ./data/iris/iristrain.csv --validatefile ./data/iris/iristest.csv --featuresize 4 --labelsize 3 --inputfileformat csv --enablecolored_log
If you want to use CNN model, try this command.
./denseclassifier.py --trainfile ./data/lung/fa7a21165ae152b13def786e6afc3edf.dcm.csv.tfrecords --validatefile ./data/lung/fa7a21165ae152b13def786e6afc3edf.dcm.csv.tfrecords --featuresize 262144 --labelsize 2 --batchsize 2 --validatebatchsize 2 --epoch_number -1 --model cnn
For boston housing dataset.
./denseclassifier.py --trainfile ./data/bostonhousing/train.csv.tfrecords --validatefile ./data/bostonhousing/train.csv.tfrecords --featuresize 13 --labelsize 1 --scenario regression --batchsize 1 --validatebatchsize 1
Export The Model
After training, it will export the model automatically. Or you can export manually.
./dense_classifier.py --mode savedmodel
Validate The Model
If we want to run inference to validate the model, you can run like this.
./dense_classifier.py --mode inference
Use TensorBoard
The program will generate TensorFlow event files automatically.
tensorboard --logdir ./tensorboard/
Then go to http://127.0.0.1:6006 in the browser.
Serving and Predicting
The exported model is compatible with TensorFlow Serving. You can follow the document and run the tensorflowmodel_server.
./tensorflowmodelserver --port=9000 --modelname=dense --modelbase_path=./model/
We have provided some gRPC clients for dense and sparse models, such as Python predict client and Java predict client.
./predictclient.py --host 127.0.0.1 --port 9000 --modelname dense --model_version 1
mvn compile exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.tobe.DensePredictClient" -Dexec.args="127.0.0.1 9000 dense 1"
Contribution
This project is widely used for different tasks with dense or sparse data.
