tensorflow:在tf.map_fn的fn中创建变量返回值错误

标签: python-3.x lambda tensorflow

我对map_fn中的变量初始化有疑问。

我试图在张量中的每个单独元素上分别应用一些公路图层,所以我认为map_fn可能是最好的方法。

segment_list = tf.reshape(raw_segment_embedding,[batch_size*seqlen,embed_dim])
segment_embedding = tf.map_fn(lambda x: stack_highways(x, hparams), segment_list)

现在问题是我的fn,即stack_highways,创建变量,并且由于某种原因,tensorflow无法初始化这些变量并给出此错误。

W = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal(W_shape, stddev=0.1), name='weight')

ValueError: Initializer for variable body/model/parallel_0/body/map/while/highway_layer0/weight/ is from inside a control-flow construct, such as a loop or conditional. When creating a variable inside a loop or conditional, use a lambda as the initializer. 

我现在非常无能为力,基于错误我认为它不是关于范围但我不知道如何使用lambda作为初始化器(我甚至不知道究竟是什么意思)。 以下是stack_highways的实现,非常感谢任何建议。

  W = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal(W_shape, stddev=0.1), name='weight')
  b = tf.Variable(tf.constant(bias_init, shape=b_shape), name='bias')
  return W, b




def highway_layer(x, size, activation, carry_bias=-1.0):
  """Fully connected highway layer adopted from

  W, b = weight_bias([size, size], [size])
  with tf.name_scope('transform_gate'):
    W_T, b_T = weight_bias([size, size], bias_init=carry_bias)


    H = activation(tf.matmul(x, W) + b, name='activation')
    T = tf.sigmoid(tf.matmul(x, W_T) + b_T, name='transform_gate')
    C = tf.sub(1.0, T, name="carry_gate")


    y = tf.add(tf.mul(H, T), tf.mul(x, C), name='y') # y = (H * T) + (x * C)
    return y

答案 0 :(得分:5)

TensorFlow提供了两种初始化变量的主要方法:

  1. “lambda”初始值设定项:返回初始化值的callable。 TF提供了许多包装精美的ones
  2. 张量值初始化:这是您当前使用的。
  3. 错误消息表明,在while_loop(内部map_fn调用)中使用变量时,您需要使用第一种类型的初始值设定项。 (一般来说,lambda初始化器对我来说似乎更健壮。)

    此外,tf.get_variable seems to be preferred over tf.Variable when used from within control flow

    因此,我怀疑您可以通过修改weight_bias功能来解决您的问题:

    def weight_bias(W_shape, b_shape, bias_init=0.1):
      """Fully connected highway layer adopted from 
         https://github.com/fomorians/highway-fcn/blob/master/main.py
      """
      W = tf.get_variable("weight", shape=W_shape,
              initializer=tf.truncated_normal_initializer(stddev=0.1))
      b = tf.get_variable("bias", shape=b_shape,
              initializer=tf.constant_inititializer(bias_init))
      return W, b
    

    希望有所帮助!
