LSTM的推導與實現

LSTM的推導與實現

前言

最近在看CS224d，這裏主要介紹LSTM(Long Short-Term Memory)的推導過程以及用Python進行簡單的實現。LSTM是一種時間遞歸神經網絡，是RNN的一個變種，很是適合處理和預測時間序列中間隔和延遲很是長的事件。假設咱們去試着預測‘I grew up in France...（很長間隔）...I speak fluent French’最後的單詞，當前的信息建議下一個此多是一種語言的名字（由於speak嘛），可是要準確預測出‘French’咱們就須要前面的離當前位置較遠的‘France’做爲上下文，當這個間隔比較大的時候RNN就會難以處理，而LSTM則沒有這個問題。

LSTM的原理

爲了弄明白LSTM的實現，我下載了alex的原文，可是被論文上圖片和公式弄的暈頭轉向，無奈最後在網上收集了一些資料才總算弄明白。我這裏不介紹就LSTM的前置RNN了，不懂的童鞋本身瞭解一下吧。

LSTM的前向過程

首先看一張LSTM節點的內部示意圖：

圖片來自一篇講解LSTM的blog(http://colah.github.io/posts/2015-08-Understanding-LSTMs/)
這是我認爲網上畫的最好的LSTM網絡節點圖（比論文裏面畫的容易理解多了），LSTM前向過程就是看圖說話，關鍵的函數節點已經在圖中標出,這裏咱們忽略了其中一個tanh計算過程。

\[ \begin{eqnarray} g(t) &=& \phi(W_{gx}x(t) + W_{gh}h(t-1) + b_{g} \\ i(t) &=& \sigma(W_{ix}x(t) + W_{ih}h(t-1) + b_{i} \\ f(t) &=& \sigma(W_{fx}x(t) + W_{fh}h(t-1) + b_{f} \\ o(t) &=& \sigma(W_{ox}x(t) + W_{oh}h(t-1) + b_{o} \\ s(t) &=& g(t)*i(t) + s(t-1)*f(t) \\ h(t) &=& s(t) * o(t) \end{eqnarray} \]

這裏\(\phi(x)=tanh(x),\sigma(x)=\frac{1}{1+e^{-x}}\)，\(x(t),h(t)\)分別是咱們的輸入序列和輸出序列。若是咱們把\(x(t)\)與\(h(t-1)\)這兩個向量進行合併:

\[ x_c(t)=[x(t),h(t-1)] \]
那麼能夠上面的方程組能夠重寫爲:

\[ \begin{eqnarray} g(t) &=& \phi(W_{g}x_c(t)) + b_{g} \\ i(t) &=& \sigma(W_{i}x_c(t)) + b_{i} \\ f(t) &=& \sigma(W_{f}x_c(t)) + b_{f} \\ o(t) &=& \sigma(W_{o}x_c(t)) + b_{o} \\ s(t) &=& g(t)*i(t) + s(t-1)*f(t) \\ h(t) &=& s(t) * o(t) \end{eqnarray} \]

其中\(f(t)\)被稱爲忘記門，所表達的含義是決定咱們會從之前狀態中丟棄什麼信息。\(i(t),g(t)\)構成了輸入門，決定什麼樣的新信息被存放在細胞狀態中。\(o(t)\)所在位置被稱做輸出門，決定咱們要輸出什麼值。這裏表述的不是很準確，感興趣的讀者能夠去http://colah.github.io/posts/2015-08-Understanding-LSTMs/ NLP這塊我也不太懂。

前向過程的代碼以下：

def bottom_data_is(self, x, s_prev = None, h_prev = None):
        # if this is the first lstm node in the network
        if s_prev == None: s_prev = np.zeros_like(self.state.s)
        if h_prev == None: h_prev = np.zeros_like(self.state.h)
        # save data for use in backprop
        self.s_prev = s_prev
        self.h_prev = h_prev

        # concatenate x(t) and h(t-1)
        xc = np.hstack((x,  h_prev))
        self.state.g = np.tanh(np.dot(self.param.wg, xc) + self.param.bg)
        self.state.i = sigmoid(np.dot(self.param.wi, xc) + self.param.bi)
        self.state.f = sigmoid(np.dot(self.param.wf, xc) + self.param.bf)
        self.state.o = sigmoid(np.dot(self.param.wo, xc) + self.param.bo)
        self.state.s = self.state.g * self.state.i + s_prev * self.state.f
        self.state.h = self.state.s * self.state.o
        self.x = x
        self.xc = xc

LSTM的反向過程

LSTM的正向過程比較容易，反向過程則比較複雜，咱們先定義一個loss function \(l(t)=f(h(t),y(t)))=||h(t)-y(t)||^2\)，\(h(t),y(t)\)分別爲輸出序列與樣本標籤，咱們要作的就是最小化整個時間序列上的\(l(t)\)，即最小化

\[ L=\sum_{t=1}^{T}l(t) \]

其中\(T\)表明整個時間序列，下面咱們經過\(L\)來計算梯度，假設咱們要計算\(\frac{dL}{dw}\)，其中\(w\)是一個標量(例如是矩陣\(W_{gx}\)的一個元素)，由鏈式法則能夠導出
\[ \frac{dL}{dw} = \sum_{t=1}^{T}\sum_{i=1}^{M}\frac{dL}{dh_i(t)}\frac{dh_i(t)}{dw} \]
其中\(h_i(t)\)是第i個單元的輸出，\(M\)是LSTM單元的個數，網絡隨着時間t前向傳播，\(h_i(t)\)的改變不影響t時刻以前的loss，咱們能夠寫出：
\[ \frac{dL}{dh_i(t)} = \sum_{s=1}^{T}\frac{dl(s)}{dh_i(t)} = \sum_{s=t}^{T}\frac{dl(s)}{dh_i(t)} \]
爲了書寫方便咱們令\(L(t)=\sum_{s=t}^{T}l(s)\)來簡化咱們的書寫，這樣\(L(1)\)就是整個序列的loss，重寫上式有：
\[ \frac{dL}{dh_i(t)} = \sum_{s=1}^{T}\frac{dl(s)}{dh_i(t)} = \frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)} \]

這樣咱們就能夠將梯度重寫爲：
\[ \frac{dL}{dw} = \sum_{t=1}^{T}\sum_{i=1}^{M}\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}\frac{dh_i(t)}{dw} \]

咱們知道\(L(t)=l(t)+L(t+1)\)，那麼\(\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}=\frac{dl(t)}{dh_i(t)} + \frac{dL(t+1)}{dh_i(t)}\)，這說明獲得下一時序的導數後能夠直接得出當前時序的導數，因此咱們能夠計算\(T\)時刻的導數而後往前推，在\(T\)時刻有\(\frac{dL(T)}{dh_i(T)}=\frac{dl(T)}{dh_i(T)}\)。

def y_list_is(self, y_list, loss_layer):
        """
        Updates diffs by setting target sequence
        with corresponding loss layer.
        Will *NOT* update parameters.  To update parameters,
        call self.lstm_param.apply_diff()
        """
        assert len(y_list) == len(self.x_list)
        idx = len(self.x_list) - 1
        # first node only gets diffs from label ...
        loss = loss_layer.loss(self.lstm_node_list[idx].state.h, y_list[idx])
        diff_h = loss_layer.bottom_diff(self.lstm_node_list[idx].state.h, y_list[idx])
        # here s is not affecting loss due to h(t+1), hence we set equal to zero
        diff_s = np.zeros(self.lstm_param.mem_cell_ct)
        self.lstm_node_list[idx].top_diff_is(diff_h, diff_s)
        idx -= 1

        ### ... following nodes also get diffs from next nodes, hence we add diffs to diff_h
        ### we also propagate error along constant error carousel using diff_s
        while idx >= 0:
            loss += loss_layer.loss(self.lstm_node_list[idx].state.h, y_list[idx])
            diff_h = loss_layer.bottom_diff(self.lstm_node_list[idx].state.h, y_list[idx])
            diff_h += self.lstm_node_list[idx + 1].state.bottom_diff_h
            diff_s = self.lstm_node_list[idx + 1].state.bottom_diff_s
            self.lstm_node_list[idx].top_diff_is(diff_h, diff_s)
            idx -= 1

        return loss

從上面公式能夠很容易理解diff_h的計算過程。這裏的loss_layer.bottom_diff定義以下：

def bottom_diff(self, pred, label):
        diff = np.zeros_like(pred)
        diff[0] = 2 * (pred[0] - label)
        return diff

該函數結合上文的loss function很明顯。下面來推導\(\frac{dL(t)}{ds(t)}\)，結合前面的前向公式咱們能夠很容易得出\(s(t)\)的變化會直接影響\(h(t)\)和\(h(t+1)\)，進而影響\(L(t)\)，即有：
\[ \frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}=\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}*\frac{dh_i(t)}{ds_i(t)} + \frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t+1)}*\frac{dh_i(t+1)}{ds_i(t)} \]
由於\(h(t+1)\)不影響\(l(t)\)因此有\(\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t+1)}=\frac{dL(t+1)}{dh_i(t+1)}\)，所以有：

\[ \frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}=\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}*\frac{dh_i(t)}{ds_i(t)} + \frac{dL(t+1)}{dh_i(t+1)}*\frac{dh_i(t+1)}{ds_i(t)}=\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}*\frac{dh_i(t)}{ds_i(t)} + \frac{dL(t+1)}{ds_i(t)} \]

一樣的咱們能夠經過後面的導數逐級反推獲得前面的導數，代碼即diff_s的計算過程。

下面咱們計算\(\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}*\frac{dh_i(t)}{ds_i(t)}\)，由於\(h(t)=s(t)*o(t)\)，那麼\(\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}*\frac{dh_i(t)}{ds_i(t)}=\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}*o_i(t)=o_i(t)[diff\_h]\)，即\(\frac{dL(t)}{ds_i(t)}=o(t)[diff\_h]_i+[diff\_s]_i\)，其中\([diff\_h]_i,[diff\_s]_i\)分別表述當前t時序的\(\frac{dL(t)}{dh_i(t)}\)和t+1時序的\(\frac{dL(t)}{ds_i(t)}\)。一樣的，結合上面的代碼應該比較容易理解。

下面咱們根據前向過程挨個計算導數：

\[ \begin{eqnarray} \frac{dL(t)}{do(t)}&=&\frac{dL(t)}{dh(t)}*s(t) \\ \frac{dL(t)}{di(t)}&=&\frac{dL(t)}{ds(t)}*\frac{ds(t)}{di(t)}=\frac{dL(t)}{ds(t)}*g(t) \\ \frac{dL(t)}{dg(t)}&=&\frac{dL(t)}{ds(t)}*\frac{ds(t)}{dg(t)}=\frac{dL(t)}{ds(t)}*i(t) \\ \frac{dL(t)}{df(t)}&=&\frac{dL(t)}{ds(t)}*\frac{ds(t)}{df(t)}=\frac{dL(t)}{ds(t)}*s(t-1) \\ \end{eqnarray} \]

所以有如下代碼：

def top_diff_is(self, top_diff_h, top_diff_s):
        # notice that top_diff_s is carried along the constant error carousel
        ds = self.state.o * top_diff_h + top_diff_s
        do = self.state.s * top_diff_h
        di = self.state.g * ds
        dg = self.state.i * ds
        df = self.s_prev * ds

        # diffs w.r.t. vector inside sigma / tanh function
        di_input = (1. - self.state.i) * self.state.i * di #sigmoid diff
        df_input = (1. - self.state.f) * self.state.f * df
        do_input = (1. - self.state.o) * self.state.o * do
        dg_input = (1. - self.state.g ** 2) * dg #tanh diff

        # diffs w.r.t. inputs
        self.param.wi_diff += np.outer(di_input, self.xc)
        self.param.wf_diff += np.outer(df_input, self.xc)
        self.param.wo_diff += np.outer(do_input, self.xc)
        self.param.wg_diff += np.outer(dg_input, self.xc)
        self.param.bi_diff += di_input
        self.param.bf_diff += df_input
        self.param.bo_diff += do_input
        self.param.bg_diff += dg_input

        # compute bottom diff
        dxc = np.zeros_like(self.xc)
        dxc += np.dot(self.param.wi.T, di_input)
        dxc += np.dot(self.param.wf.T, df_input)
        dxc += np.dot(self.param.wo.T, do_input)
        dxc += np.dot(self.param.wg.T, dg_input)

        # save bottom diffs
        self.state.bottom_diff_s = ds * self.state.f
        self.state.bottom_diff_x = dxc[:self.param.x_dim]
        self.state.bottom_diff_h = dxc[self.param.x_dim:]

這裏top_diff_h，top_diff_s分別是上文的diff_h，diff_s。這裏咱們講解下wi_diff的求解過程，其餘變量相似。
\[ \frac{dL(t)}{dW_i} = \frac{dL(t)}{di(t)}*\frac{di(t)}{d(W_ix_c(t))}*\frac{d(W_ix_c(t))}{dx_c(t)} \]
上式化簡以後即獲得如下代碼

wi_diff += np.outer((1.-i)*i*di, xc)

其它的導數能夠一樣獲得，這裏就不贅述了。
