Swift for TensorFlow Deep Learning Library

Get a taste of protocol-oriented differentiable programming.

This repository hosts Swift for TensorFlow's deep learning library, available both as a part of Swift for TensorFlow toolchains and as a Swift package.

Usage

This library is being automatically integrated in Swift for TensorFlow toolchains. You do not need to add this library as a Swift Package Manager dependency.

Use Google Colaboratory

Open an empty Colaboratory now to try out Swift, TensorFlow, differentiable programming, and deep learning.

For detailed usage and troubleshooting, see Usage on the Swift for TensorFlow project homepage.

Define a model

Simply import TensorFlow to get the full power of TensorFlow.

import TensorFlow

let hiddenSize: Int = 10

struct Model: Layer {
    var layer1 = Dense<Float>(inputSize: 4, outputSize: hiddenSize, activation: relu)
    var layer2 = Dense<Float>(inputSize: hiddenSize, outputSize: hiddenSize, activation: relu)
    var layer3 = Dense<Float>(inputSize: hiddenSize, outputSize: 3, activation: identity)
    
    @differentiable
    func callAsFunction(_ input: Tensor<Float>) -> Tensor<Float> {
        return input.sequenced(through: layer1, layer2, layer3)
    }
}

Initialize a model and an optimizer

let optimizer = SGD(for: model, learningRate: 0.02)
var classifier = Model()
Context.local.learningPhase = .training
let x: Tensor<Float> = ...
let y: Tensor<Float> = ...

Run a training loop

One way to define a training epoch is to use the Differentiable.gradient(in:) method.

for _ in 0..<1000 {
    let 𝛁model = classifier.gradient { classifier -> Tensor<Float> in
        let ŷ = classifier(x)
        let loss = softmaxCrossEntropy(logits: ŷ, labels: y)
        print("Loss: \(loss)")
        return loss
    }
    optimizer.update(&classifier.allDifferentiableVariables, along: 𝛁model)
}

Another way is to make use of methods on Differentiable or Layer that produce a backpropagation function. This allows you to compose your derivative computation with great flexibility.

for _ in 0..<1000 {
    let (ŷ, backprop) = classifier.appliedForBackpropagation(to: x)
    let (loss, 𝛁ŷ) = ŷ.valueWithGradient { ŷ in softmaxCrossEntropy(logits: ŷ, labels: y) }
    print("Model output: \(ŷ), Loss: \(loss)")
    let 𝛁model = backprop(𝛁ŷ)
    optimizer.update(&classifier.allDifferentiableVariables, along: 𝛁model)
}
