TensorFlow local machine learning

Open a Python 3 Notebook and put the following sections in different code cells.

1. Prepare the test data:

   import tensorflow as tf
   (x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = tf.keras.datasets.mnist.load_data()
   
   x_train = x_train.reshape(x_train.shape[0], 28, 28, 1)
   x_test = x_test.reshape(x_test.shape[0], 28, 28, 1)
   input_shape = (28, 28, 1)
   
   x_train = x_train.astype('float32')
   x_test = x_test.astype('float32')
   
   x_train /= 255
   x_test /= 255
   

   Copy

2. Define a model:

   from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential
   from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense, Conv2D, Dropout, Flatten, MaxPooling2D
   
   model = Sequential()
   model.add(Conv2D(28, kernel_size=(3,3), input_shape=input_shape))
   model.add(MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)))
   model.add(Flatten())
   model.add(Dense(256, activation=tf.nn.relu))
   model.add(Dropout(0.2))
   model.add(Dense(10,activation=tf.nn.softmax))
   

   Copy

3. Training and Evaluating the model

   model.compile(optimizer='adam',
                 loss='sparse_categorical_crossentropy',
                 metrics=['accuracy'])
   model.fit(x=x_train,y=y_train, epochs=10)
   
   model.evaluate(x_test, y_test)
   

   Copy

4. Use the model to predict a hand-written number:

   image_index = 5555 # should be '3'
   pred = model.predict(x_test[image_index].reshape(1, 28, 28, 1))
   print("Predicted Number: {}".format(pred.argmax()))

TensorBoard

DC/OS Data Science Engine comes with TensorBoard installed. It can be found at http://<dcos-url>/service/data-science-engine/tensorboard/.

Log directory

TensorBoard reads log data from specific directory, with the default being /mnt/mesos/sandbox. It can be changed with advanced.tensorboard_logdir option. HDFS paths are supported as well.

Here is an example:

1. Install HDFS:

   dcos package install hdfs
   

   Copy

2. Install data-science-engine with overridden log directory option:

   dcos package install --options=options.json data-science-engine
   

   Copy

   With options.json having the following content:

   {
     "advanced": {
       "tensorboard_logdir": "hdfs://tf_logs"
     }
   }
   

   Copy

3. Open TensorBoard at https://<dcos-url>/service/data-science-engine/tensorboard/ and confirm the change.

Disabling TensorBoard

DC/OS Data Science Engine can be installed with TensorBoard disabled by using the following configuration:

{
  "advanced": {
    "start_tensorboard": false
  }
}
