AttributeError：从未调用过该图层，因此没有定义的输入形状

Question

我正试图通过创建三个类在TensorFlow 2.0中构建自动编码器：编码器，解码器和自动编码器。 由于我不想手动设置输入形状，因此尝试从编码器的input_shape推断解码器的输出形状。

from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense, Layer

    with tf.GradientTape() as tape:
        gradients = tape.gradient(
            loss(model, original), model.trainable_variables)
        gradient_variables = zip(gradients, model.trainable_variables)
        opt.apply_gradients(gradient_variables)


def log_results(model, X, max_outputs, epoch, prefix):
    loss_values = mse(model, X)

    sample_img = X[sample(range(X.shape[0]), max_outputs), :]
    original = tf.reshape(sample_img, (max_outputs, 28, 28, 1))
    encoded = tf.reshape(
        model.encode(sample_img), (sample_img.shape[0], 8, 8, 1))
    decoded = tf.reshape(
        model(tf.constant(sample_img)), (sample_img.shape[0], 28, 28, 1))
    tf.summary.scalar("{}_loss".format(prefix), loss_values, step=epoch + 1)
    tf.summary.image(
        "{}_original".format(prefix),
        original,
        max_outputs=max_outputs,
        step=epoch + 1)
    tf.summary.image(
        "{}_encoded".format(prefix),
        encoded,
        max_outputs=max_outputs,
        step=epoch + 1)
    tf.summary.image(
        "{}_decoded".format(prefix),

    return loss_values

由于在解码器的构建功能中使用了编码器的输入形状，因此我希望在训练自动编码器时先构建编码器，然后再构建解码器，但事实并非如此。我还尝试通过在解码器的构建函数开始时调用self.encoder.build()在解码器的构建函数中构建编码器，但这没有任何区别。我在做什么错了？

我收到错误：

AttributeError: The layer has never been called and thus has no defined input shape.

Answer 1

您快到了，只是让事情有些复杂了。您收到此错误的原因是，Decoder层依赖于尚未构建的Encoder层 （因为对build的调用未成功），并且未设置input_shape属性 。

解决方案是像这样从AutoEncoder对象传递正确的输出形状：

class Decoder(Layer):
    def __init__(self, units):
        super(Decoder, self).__init__()
        self.units = units

    def build(self, _):
        self.output_layer = Dense(units=self.units)

    def call(self, X):
        return self.output_layer(X)


class AutoEncoder(Model):
    def __init__(self, units):
        super(AutoEncoder, self).__init__()
        self.units = units

    def build(self, input_shape):
        self.encoder = Encoder(units=self.units)
        self.decoder = Decoder(units=input_shape[-1])

注意，由于您不太可能提高效率（@tf,function已经为您创建了静态图形），因此我删除了keras装饰器。

此外，正如人们所看到的那样，您的构建不依赖于input_shape信息，因此所有创建的内容都可以像这样安全地移到构造函数中：

class Encoder(Layer):
    def __init__(self, units):
        super(Encoder, self).__init__()
        self.output_layer = Dense(units=units, activation=tf.nn.relu)

    def call(self, X):
        return self.output_layer(X)


class Decoder(Layer):
    def __init__(self, units):
        super(Decoder, self).__init__()
        self.output_layer = Dense(units=units)

    def call(self, X):
        return self.output_layer(X)


class AutoEncoder(Model):
    def __init__(self, units):
        super(AutoEncoder, self).__init__()
        self.units = units

    def build(self, input_shape):
        self.encoder = Encoder(units=self.units)
        self.decoder = Decoder(units=input_shape[-1])

    def call(self, X):
        Z = self.encoder(X)
        return self.decoder(Z)

    def encode(self, X):
        return self.encoder(X)

    def decode(self, Z):
        return self.decode(Z)

上面的问题是，是否确实需要单独的Decoder和Encoder层。海事组织应该将那些内容排除在外，这只给我们留下了这个简短易读的代码段：

class AutoEncoder(Model):
    def __init__(self, units):
        super(AutoEncoder, self).__init__()
        self.units = units

    def build(self, input_shape):
        self.encoder = Dense(units=self.units, activation=tf.nn.relu)
        self.decoder = Dense(units=input_shape[-1])

    def call(self, X):
        Z = self.encoder(X)
        return self.decoder(Z)

    def encode(self, X):
        return self.encoder(X)

    def decode(self, Z):
        return self.decode(Z)

顺便说一句。 sample中有一个错误，但这是一个小问题，您可以毫无疑问地自行解决。
