I have a set of sentences and their scores, I would like to train a marking system that could predict the score for a given sentence, such one example is like this:
(X =Tomorrow is a good day, Y = 0.9)
I would like to use LSTM to build such a marking system, and also consider the sequential relationship between each word in the sentence, so the training example shown above is transformed as following:
(x1=Tomorrow, y1=is) (x2=is, y2=a) (x3=a, y3=good) (x4=day, y4=0.9)
When training this LSTM, I would like the first three time steps using a softmax classifier, and the final step using a MSE. It is obvious that the loss function used in this LSTM is composed of two different loss functions. In this case, it seems the Keras does not provide the way to address my problem directly. In addition, I am not sure whether my method to build the marking system is correct or not.
Keras support multiple loss functions as well:
model = Model(inputs=inputs,
outputs=[lang_model, sent_model])
model.compile(optimizer='sgd',
loss=['categorical_crossentropy', 'mse'],
metrics=['accuracy'], loss_weights=[1., 1.])
Based on your explanation, I think you need a model that first, predict a token based on previous tokens, in NLP domain it usually called Language model, and then compute a score which I assume it is a sentiment (it is applicable to other domain).
To do so, you can train your language model with LSTM and pick the last output of LSTM for your ranking task. To this end, you need to define two loss function: categorical_crossentropy for the language model and MSE for the ranking task.

I am currently turning my Binary Classification Model to a multi-class classification Model. Bare with me.. I am very knew to pytorch and Machine Learning.
Most of what I state here, I know from the following video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q7E91pHoW4&t=654s
What I read / know is that the CrossEntropyLoss already has the Softmax function implemented, thus my output layer is linear.
What I then read / saw is that I can just choose my Model prediction by taking the torch.max() of my model output (Which comes from my last linear output. This feels weird because I Have some negative outputs and i thought I need to apply the SOftmax function first, but It seems to work right without it.
So know the big confusing question I have is, when would I use the Softmax function? Would I only use it when my loss doesnt have it implemented? BUT then I would choose my prediction based on the outputs of the SOftmax layer which wouldnt be the same as with the linear output layer.
Thank you guys for every answer this gets.
For calculating the loss using CrossEntropy you do not need softmax because CrossEntropy already includes it. However to turn model outputs to probabilities you still need to apply softmax to turn them into probabilities.
Lets say you didnt apply softmax at the end of you model. And trained it with crossentropy. And then you want to evaluate your model with new data and get outputs and use these outputs for classification. At this point you can manually apply softmax to your outputs. And there will be no problem. This is how it is usually done.
Traning()
MODEL ----> FC LAYER --->raw outputs ---> Crossentropy Loss
Eval()
MODEL ----> FC LAYER --->raw outputs --> Softmax -> Probabilites
Yes you need to apply softmax on the output layer. When you are doing binary classification you are free to use relu, sigmoid,tanh etc activation function. But when you are doing multi class classification softmax is required because softmax activation function distributes the probability throughout each output node. So that you can easily conclude that the output node which has the highest probability belongs to a particular class. Thank you. Hope this is useful!

I am trying to implement an LSTM architecture for multi-label text classification.
My problem is that no matter how much fine-tuning I do, the results are really bad.
I am not experienced in DL practical implementations that's why I ask for your advice.
Below I will state basic information about my dataset and my model so far.
I can't embed images since I am a new member so they appear as links.

Dataset's labels distribution
My Implementation of LSTM
Model's Summary
Model's Accuracy plot
Model's Loss plot
As you can see my dataset is really small (~6.000 examples) and maybe that's one reason why I cannot achieve better results. Still, I chose it because it's unbiased.
I'd like to know if there is any fundamental mistake in my code regarding the dimensions, shape, activation functions, and loss functions for multi-label text classification?
What would you recommend to achieve better results on my model? Also any general advice regarding optimizing, methods,# of nodes, layers, dropouts, etc is very welcome.
Model's best val accuracy that I achieved so far is ~0.54 and even if I tried to raise it, it seems stuck there.
There are many ways to get this wrong but the most common mistake is to get your model overfit the training data.
I suspect that 0.54 accuracy means that your model selects the most common label (offensive) for almost all cases.
So, consider one of these simple solutions:
Create balanced training data: like 400 samples from each class.
or sample balanced batches for training (exactly the same number of labels on each training batch)
In addition to tracking accuracy and loss, look at precision-recall-f1 or even better try plotting area under curve, maybe different classes need different thresholds of activation. (If you are using Sigmoid on last layer maybe one class could perform better with 0.2 activations and another class with 0.7)
first try simple model. embedding 1 layer LSTM than classify

I have to pre train a model for multi label classification. I'm pretraining with cifar10 dataset and I wonder if I have to use for the pre training
'categorical_crossentrpy' (softmax) or 'binary_crossentropy' (sigmoid), since in the first case I have a multi classification problem
You should use softmax because it gives you the probabilities for every class, no matter how many of them are there. Sigmoid, as you have written is used with binary_crossentropy and is used in binary classification (hence binary in the name). I hope it's clearer now.
I'm using SVC(kernel="linear", probability=True) in multiclass classification. when I'm using 2/3rd of my data for training purpose, I'm getting ~72%. And when I tried to predict in production, Confidence scores I'm getting are very less. Does training on the total dataset helps to improve confidence scores?
Does training on the total dataset helps to improve confidence scores?
It might. In general, the more data the better. However evaluating performance should be done on data that the model has not seen before. One way to do this is to set aside a part of the data, a test set, as you have done. Another approach is to use cross-validation, see below.
And when I tried to predict in production, Confidence scores I'm getting are very less.
This means that your model does not generalize well. In other words when presented with data it has not seen before the model starts to make more or less random predictions.
To get a better sense of how well your model generalizes you may want to use cross-validation:
from sklearn.model_selection import cross_val_score
clf = SVC()
scores = cross_val_score(clf, X, Y)
This will train and evaluate your classifier on the full dataset using folds of the full data. A fold For each split the classifier is trained and validation on an exclusive subset of the data. For each split the scores result contains the validation score (for SVC, the accuracy). If you need more control over which metrics to evaluate, use the cross_validation function.
to predict in production
In order to improve your model's performance, there are several methods to consider:
Use more training data
Use an ensemble model to reduce prediction variance
Use a different model (algorithm)
I was trying to find the best features that dominate for the output of my regression model, Following is my code.
seed = 7
np.random.seed(seed)
estimators = []
estimators.append(('mlp', KerasRegressor(build_fn=baseline_model, epochs=3,
batch_size=20)))
pipeline = Pipeline(estimators)
rfe = RFE(estimator= pipeline, n_features_to_select=5)
fit = rfe.fit(X_set, Y_set)
But I get the following runtime error when running.
RuntimeError: The classifier does not expose "coef_" or "feature_importances_" attributes
How to overcome this issue and select best features for my model? If not, Can I use algorithms like LogisticRegression() provided and supported by RFE in Scikit to achieve the task of finding best features for my dataset?
I assume your Keras model is some kind of a neural network. And with NN in general it is kind of hard to see which input features are relevant and which are not. The reason for this is that each input feature has multiple coefficients that are linked to it - each corresponding to one node of the first hidden layer. Adding additional hidden layers makes it even more complicated to determine how big of an impact the input feature has on the final prediction.
On the other hand, for linear models it is very straightforward since each feature x_i has a corresponding weight/coefficient w_i and its magnitude directly determines how big of an impact it has in prediction (assuming that features are scaled of course).
The RFE estimator (Recursive feature elimination) assumes that your prediction model has an attribute coef_ (linear models) or feature_importances_(tree models) that has the length of input features and that it represents their relevance (in absolute terms).
My suggestion:
Feature selection: (Option a) Run the RFE on any linear / tree model to reduce the number of features to some desired number n_features_to_select. (Option b) Use regularized linear models like lasso / elastic net that enforce sparsity. The problem here is that you cannot directly set the actual number of selected features. (Option c) Use any other feature selection technique from here.
Neural Network: Use only features from (1) for your neural network.
Suggestion:
Perform the RFE algorithm on a sklearn-based algorithm to observe feature importance. Finally, you use the most importantly observed features to train your algorithm based on Keras.
