Hey Ryan,I have already submitted a draft proposal in which I have covered many points and more work that I have been doing. I described phases and discussion point in my draft, hopefully you can review it and make some comments there or we can continue the discussion on mailing channel or irc channel.RegardsGopi M Tatiraju Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. -------- Original message --------From: Ryan Birmingham <[email protected]> Date: 3/19/20 18:53 (GMT+05:30) To: Gopi Manohar Tatiraju <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [mlpack] GSoC 2020: Visualization Tool Hello, and apologies for my absence. In case it's not clear, were I to mentor the visualization project, I'd certainly need a co-mentor. GSOC, if done right, is a reasonable time commitment, and students deserve good support, which I don't think I can offer entirely on my own now.That being said...I think that these visualizations are a reasonable start. I'm wondering how you think that users will want to create or interact with these visualizations? Will they want to use a log scale in certain cases? Are they interested in the size of an ANN layer's input/output? The project proposals are generally reasonably openly stated so that you can decide exactly what form of the project is most interesting or useful. I'm curious what you think!Thank you,-Ryan BirminghamOn Tue, Mar 17, 2020 at 9:41 AM Gopi Manohar Tatiraju <[email protected]> wrote:Hey Mentors,Regarding the visualization project, I am looking for some feedback and help to prepare a proof of concept. My previous mail depicts my doubts about should we integrate this tool with the existing library as this will impact our path to build the tool. Also I have already started to work on the tool, I took the existing model of mlpack(Digit Recognizer)Using openCV I visualised the MNIST dataset. OpenCV doesn't have any in-build function to load .csv images so I wrote my custom function for that. The output is something like this, also the label will be displayed in the terminal or if required we can add it to the image itself:Using matplotlibcpp I also plotted accuracy while training the model. This can be displayed in two ways:Either at the time of training. The graph will be updated after each epoch(better on faster machines)Show the whole graph once the whole training is done.I also made a graph which depicts the order of layers added in the model. I used openCV for this, also I read that text rendering is not much efficient in openCV so maybe we can discuss how to tackle that by some testing.Till now this much has been done, I am thinking about more model metric like loss and many other ML metrics. Using articles like these and referring to research papers, we can discuss what more to add. Also the main point still remains is how the user will use the tool. Can I get some feed back regarding this, as proposal submission is already open and I want to submit a detailed proposal.

Coz it was not listed on the idea page and there are many things which I would I like to discuss about this project from a mentor's perspective. About serialized model, I need to go through the saved .h5 file to see how exactly we can use it. Also I am just trying to determine what all can be included in this project, I am yet to decide how to implement these things coz there are many options available. As it was mentioned on the idea page that proof of concept is required so I am just working on determining the outlines of the project first,Regards.Gopi M Tatiraju On Fri, Mar 13, 2020 at 1:35 AM Rahul Prabhu <[email protected]> wrote:Hey Gopi,Thanks for the interest in this project. I was wondering, to visualize the neural network, could we not just parse the serialized model returned by data::Save()?On Thu, Mar 12, 2020 at 11:59 PM Gopi Manohar Tatiraju <[email protected]> wrote:Hey,Regarding Visualization Tool, I think we may need to use one or more different libraries to build it, so a discussion regarding the dependencies is needed to proceed further. I took the example of Digit Recogniser and started working on it. I started by visualising the dataset itself. Using OpenCV I wrote code to read images from CSV file and display them(OpenCV doesn't have any function to read csv files as images). Now I think another good visual will be a list of all the layers and activation function which are used and connections between them. Now we have some options to do this:Total Naive Approach: We can use file handling. Our tool will take code file as input. All layers are added like this(Add<Parameter>). We can detect the parameters and using openCV we can arrange them in a graph fashion. A better approach: A better approach will be to add a variable or function (for ex. FNN class) which keep track of the layers being added and other required parameters. Then we can create an object of visual class, and the FNN class object can be passed to this visual class which then can produce the required visualization.Method 1 maybe not that efficient and is prone to many errors as here we also have to ensure code file given by the user contains right code and all the connections are properly done. But here we don't need to touch any of the base code of the library so required testing will be only be limited to Visual Tool ClassMethod 2 is efficient but changing the base code of the library will required extensive testing before we can merge it. Testing will take more time here, but using objects can we more beneficial.I need some views regarding what method should be chosen and how to proceed from here. Once the flow is established other parameters like accuracy, bias and other parameters can be visualised using graphs. I have some parameters in mind for now, we can also take some inspiration from tensor-board for that. Waiting for suggestion as I am planning to implement a proof of concept so that we can understand the project better.RegardsGopi M Tatiraju _______________________________________________ mlpack mailing list [email protected] http://knife.lugatgt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlpack
