The skflow from ozzie00

SkFlow has been moved to Tensorflow.

SkFlow has been moved to http://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow into contrib folder specifically located here. The development will continue there. Please submit any issues and pull requests to Tensorflow repository instead.

This repository will ramp down, including after next Tensorflow release we will wind down code here. Please see instructions on most recent installation here.

Scikit Flow

This is a simplified interface for TensorFlow, to get people started on predictive analytics and data mining.

Library covers variety of needs from linear models to Deep Learning applications like text and image understanding.

Why TensorFlow?

TensorFlow provides a good backbone for building different shapes of machine learning applications.
It will continue to evolve both in the distributed direction and as general pipelinining machinery.

Why Scikit Flow?

To smooth the transition from the Scikit Learn world of one-liner machine learning into the more open world of building different shapes of ML models. You can start by using fit/predict and slide into TensorFlow APIs as you are getting comfortable.
To provide a set of reference models that would be easy to integrate with existing code.

Usage

Below are few simple examples of the API. For more examples, please see examples.

General tips

It's useful to re-scale dataset before passing to estimator to 0 mean and unit standard deviation. Stochastic Gradient Descent doesn't always do the right thing when variable are very different scale.
Categorical variables should be managed before passing input to the estimator.

Linear Classifier

Simple linear classification:

import skflow
from sklearn import datasets, metrics

iris = datasets.load_iris()
classifier = skflow.TensorFlowLinearClassifier(n_classes=3)
classifier.fit(iris.data, iris.target)
score = metrics.accuracy_score(iris.target, classifier.predict(iris.data))
print("Accuracy: %f" % score)

Linear Regressor

Simple linear regression:

import skflow
from sklearn import datasets, metrics, preprocessing

boston = datasets.load_boston()
X = preprocessing.StandardScaler().fit_transform(boston.data)
regressor = skflow.TensorFlowLinearRegressor()
regressor.fit(X, boston.target)
score = metrics.mean_squared_error(regressor.predict(X), boston.target)
print ("MSE: %f" % score)

Deep Neural Network

Example of 3 layer network with 10, 20 and 10 hidden units respectively:

import skflow
from sklearn import datasets, metrics

iris = datasets.load_iris()
classifier = skflow.TensorFlowDNNClassifier(hidden_units=[10, 20, 10], n_classes=3)
classifier.fit(iris.data, iris.target)
score = metrics.accuracy_score(iris.target, classifier.predict(iris.data))
print("Accuracy: %f" % score)

Custom model

Example of how to pass a custom model to the TensorFlowEstimator:

import skflow
from sklearn import datasets, metrics

iris = datasets.load_iris()

def my_model(X, y):
    """This is DNN with 10, 20, 10 hidden layers, and dropout of 0.5 probability."""
    layers = skflow.ops.dnn(X, [10, 20, 10], keep_prob=0.5)
    return skflow.models.logistic_regression(layers, y)

classifier = skflow.TensorFlowEstimator(model_fn=my_model, n_classes=3)
classifier.fit(iris.data, iris.target)
score = metrics.accuracy_score(iris.target, classifier.predict(iris.data))
print("Accuracy: %f" % score)

Saving / Restoring models

Each estimator has a save method which takes folder path where all model information will be saved. For restoring you can just call skflow.TensorFlowEstimator.restore(path) and it will return object of your class.

Some example code:

import skflow

classifier = skflow.TensorFlowLinearRegression()
classifier.fit(...)
classifier.save('/tmp/tf_examples/my_model_1/')

new_classifier = TensorFlowEstimator.restore('/tmp/tf_examples/my_model_2')
new_classifier.predict(...)

Summaries

To get nice visualizations and summaries you can use logdir parameter on fit. It will start writing summaries for loss and histograms for variables in your model. You can also add custom summaries in your custom model function by calling tf.summary and passing Tensors to report.

classifier = skflow.TensorFlowLinearRegression()
classifier.fit(X, y, logdir='/tmp/tf_examples/my_model_1/')

Then run next command in command line:

tensorboard --logdir=/tmp/tf_examples/my_model_1

and follow reported url.
