# Restricted Boltzmann Machine features for digit classification¶

For greyscale image data where pixel values can be interpreted as degrees of blackness on a white background, like handwritten digit recognition, the Bernoulli Restricted Boltzmann machine model (BernoulliRBM) can perform effective non-linear feature extraction.

# Authors: Yann N. Dauphin, Vlad Niculae, Gabriel Synnaeve


## Generate data¶

In order to learn good latent representations from a small dataset, we artificially generate more labeled data by perturbing the training data with linear shifts of 1 pixel in each direction.

import numpy as np

from scipy.ndimage import convolve

from sklearn import datasets
from sklearn.preprocessing import minmax_scale

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

def nudge_dataset(X, Y):
"""
This produces a dataset 5 times bigger than the original one,
by moving the 8x8 images in X around by 1px to left, right, down, up
"""
direction_vectors = [
[[0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0]],
[[0, 0, 0], [1, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0]],
[[0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1], [0, 0, 0]],
[[0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0]],
]

def shift(x, w):
return convolve(x.reshape((8, 8)), mode="constant", weights=w).ravel()

X = np.concatenate(
[X] + [np.apply_along_axis(shift, 1, X, vector) for vector in direction_vectors]
)
Y = np.concatenate([Y for _ in range(5)], axis=0)
return X, Y

X = np.asarray(X, "float32")
X, Y = nudge_dataset(X, y)
X = minmax_scale(X, feature_range=(0, 1))  # 0-1 scaling

X_train, X_test, Y_train, Y_test = train_test_split(X, Y, test_size=0.2, random_state=0)


## Models definition¶

We build a classification pipeline with a BernoulliRBM feature extractor and a LogisticRegression classifier.

from sklearn import linear_model
from sklearn.neural_network import BernoulliRBM
from sklearn.pipeline import Pipeline

logistic = linear_model.LogisticRegression(solver="newton-cg", tol=1)
rbm = BernoulliRBM(random_state=0, verbose=True)

rbm_features_classifier = Pipeline(steps=[("rbm", rbm), ("logistic", logistic)])


## Training¶

The hyperparameters of the entire model (learning rate, hidden layer size, regularization) were optimized by grid search, but the search is not reproduced here because of runtime constraints.

from sklearn.base import clone

# Hyper-parameters. These were set by cross-validation,
# using a GridSearchCV. Here we are not performing cross-validation to
# save time.
rbm.learning_rate = 0.06
rbm.n_iter = 10

# More components tend to give better prediction performance, but larger
# fitting time
rbm.n_components = 100
logistic.C = 6000

# Training RBM-Logistic Pipeline
rbm_features_classifier.fit(X_train, Y_train)

# Training the Logistic regression classifier directly on the pixel
raw_pixel_classifier = clone(logistic)
raw_pixel_classifier.C = 100.0
raw_pixel_classifier.fit(X_train, Y_train)

The features extracted by the BernoulliRBM help improve the classification accuracy with respect to the logistic regression on raw pixels.
