TensorFlow學習筆記（1）：線性迴歸

前言

本文使用tensorflow訓練線性迴歸模型，並將其與scikit-learn作比較。數據集來自Andrew Ng的網上公開課程Deep Learning

# @description: compare scikit-learn and tensorflow, using linear regression data from deep learning course by Andrew Ng.
# @ref: http://openclassroom.stanford.edu/MainFolder/DocumentPage.php?course=DeepLearning&doc=exercises/ex2/ex2.html

import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
from sklearn import linear_model

# Read x and y
x_data = np.loadtxt("ex2x.dat")
y_data = np.loadtxt("ex2y.dat")


# We use scikit-learn first to get a sense of the coefficients
reg = linear_model.LinearRegression()
reg.fit(x_data.reshape(-1, 1), y_data)

print "Coefficient of scikit-learn linear regression: k=%f, b=%f" % (reg.coef_, reg.intercept_)


# Then we apply tensorflow to achieve the similar results
# The structure of tensorflow code can be divided into two parts:

# First part: set up computation graph
W = tf.Variable(tf.random_uniform([1], -1.0, 1.0))
b = tf.Variable(tf.zeros([1]))
y = W * x_data + b

loss = tf.reduce_mean(tf.square(y - y_data)) / 2
optimizer = tf.train.GradientDescentOptimizer(0.07)  # Try 0.1 and you will see unconvergency
train = optimizer.minimize(loss)

init = tf.initialize_all_variables()

# Second part: launch the graph
sess = tf.Session()
sess.run(init)

for step in range(1500):
    sess.run(train)
    if step % 100 == 0:
        print step, sess.run(W), sess.run(b)
print "Coeeficient of tensorflow linear regression: k=%f, b=%f" % (sess.run(W), sess.run(b))

輸出以下：

思考

對於tensorflow，梯度降低的步長alpha參數須要很仔細的設置，步子太大容易扯到蛋致使沒法收斂；步子過小容易等得蛋疼。迭代次數也須要細緻的嘗試。
