## Introduction

Are you a machine learning researcher? Do you publish at NeurIPS and push the
state-of-the-art in CV and NLP? This guide will serve as your first introduction to core
Keras & TensorFlow API concepts.

In this guide, you will learn about:

- Tensors, variables, and gradients in TensorFlow
- Creating layers by subclassing the `Layer` class
- Writing low-level training loops
- Tracking losses created by layers via the `add_loss()` method
- Tracking metrics in a low-level training loop
- Speeding up execution with a compiled `tf.function`
- Executing layers in training or inference mode
- The Keras Functional API

You will also see the Keras API in action in two end-to-end research examples:
a Variational Autoencoder, and a Hypernetwork.
"""

"""
## Tensors

TensorFlow is an infrastructure layer for differentiable programming.
At its heart, it's a framework for manipulating N-dimensional arrays (tensors),
much like NumPy.

However, there are three key differences between NumPy and TensorFlow:

- TensorFlow can leverage hardware accelerators such as GPUs and TPUs.
- TensorFlow can automatically compute the gradient of arbitrary differentiable tensor expressions.
- TensorFlow computation can be distributed to large numbers of devices on a single machine, and large number of
machines (potentially with multiple devices each).

Let's take a look at the object that is at the core of TensorFlow: the Tensor.

Here's a constant tensor:
"""

x = tf.constant([[5, 2], [1, 3]])
print(x)

"""
You can get its value as a NumPy array by calling `.numpy()`:
"""

x.numpy()

"""
Much like a NumPy array, it features the attributes `dtype` and `shape`:
"""

print("dtype:", x.dtype)
print("shape:", x.shape)

"""
A common way to create constant tensors is via `tf.ones` and `tf.zeros` (just like `np.ones` and `np.zeros`):
"""

print(tf.ones(shape=(2, 1)))
print(tf.zeros(shape=(2, 1)))

"""
You can also create random constant tensors:
"""

x = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2), mean=0.0, stddev=1.0)

x = tf.random.uniform(shape=(2, 2), minval=0, maxval=10, dtype="int32")


"""
## Variables

Variables are special tensors used to store mutable state (such as the weights of a neural network).
You create a `Variable` using some initial value:
"""

initial_value = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2))
a = tf.Variable(initial_value)
print(a)


"""
You update the value of a `Variable` by using the methods `.assign(value)`, `.assign_add(increment)`, or `.assign_sub(decrement)`:
"""

new_value = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2))
a.assign(new_value)
for i in range(2):
    for j in range(2):
        assert a[i, j] == new_value[i, j]

added_value = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2))
a.assign_add(added_value)
for i in range(2):
    for j in range(2):
        assert a[i, j] == new_value[i, j] + added_value[i, j]

"""
## Doing math in TensorFlow

If you've used NumPy, doing math in TensorFlow will look very familiar.
The main difference is that your TensorFlow code can run on GPU and TPU.
"""

a = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2))
b = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2))

c = a + b
d = tf.square(c)
e = tf.exp(d)

"""
## Gradients

Here's another big difference with NumPy: you can automatically retrieve the gradient of any differentiable expression.

Just open a `GradientTape`, start "watching" a tensor via `tape.watch()`,
and compose a differentiable expression using this tensor as input:
"""

a = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2))
b = tf.random.normal(shape=(2, 2))

with tf.GradientTape() as tape:
    tape.watch(a)  # Start recording the history of operations applied to `a`
    c = tf.sqrt(tf.square(a) + tf.square(b))  # Do some math using `a`
    # What's the gradient of `c` with respect to `a`?
    dc_da = tape.gradient(c, a)
    print(dc_da)


"""
By default, variables are watched automatically, so you don't need to manually `watch` them:
"""

a = tf.Variable(a)

with tf.GradientTape() as tape:
    c = tf.sqrt(tf.square(a) + tf.square(b))
    dc_da = tape.gradient(c, a)
    print(dc_da)

"""
Note that you can compute higher-order derivatives by nesting tapes:
"""

with tf.GradientTape() as outer_tape:
    with tf.GradientTape() as tape:
        c = tf.sqrt(tf.square(a) + tf.square(b))
        dc_da = tape.gradient(c, a)
    d2c_da2 = outer_tape.gradient(dc_da, a)
    print(d2c_da2)


"""
## Keras layers

While TensorFlow is an **infrastructure layer for differentiable programming**,
dealing with tensors, variables, and gradients,
Keras is a **user interface for deep learning**, dealing with
layers, models, optimizers, loss functions, metrics, and more.

Keras serves as the high-level API for TensorFlow:
Keras is what makes TensorFlow simple and productive.

The `Layer` class is the fundamental abstraction in Keras.
A `Layer` encapsulates a state (weights) and some computation
(defined in the call method).

A simple layer looks like this:
"""


class Linear(keras.layers.Layer):
    """y = w.x + b"""

    def __init__(self, units=32, input_dim=32):
        super().__init__()
        w_init = tf.random_normal_initializer()
        self.w = tf.Variable(
            initial_value=w_init(shape=(input_dim, units), dtype="float32"),
            trainable=True,
        )
        b_init = tf.zeros_initializer()
        self.b = tf.Variable(
            initial_value=b_init(shape=(units,), dtype="float32"), trainable=True
        )

    def call(self, inputs):
        return tf.matmul(inputs, self.w) + self.b


"""
You would use a `Layer` instance much like a Python function:
"""

# Instantiate our layer.
linear_layer = Linear(units=4, input_dim=2)

# The layer can be treated as a function.
# Here we call it on some data.
y = linear_layer(tf.ones((2, 2)))
assert y.shape == (2, 4)

"""
The weight variables (created in `__init__`) are automatically
tracked under the `weights` property:
"""

assert linear_layer.weights == [linear_layer.w, linear_layer.b]

"""
You have many built-in layers available, from `Dense` to `Conv2D` to `LSTM` to
fancier ones like `Conv3DTranspose` or `ConvLSTM2D`. Be smart about reusing
built-in functionality.
"""

"""
## Layer weight creation

The `self.add_weight()` method gives you a shortcut for creating weights:
"""


class Linear(keras.layers.Layer):
    """y = w.x + b"""

    def __init__(self, units=32):
        super().__init__()
        self.units = units

    def build(self, input_shape):
        self.w = self.add_weight(
            shape=(input_shape[-1], self.units),
            initializer="random_normal",
            trainable=True,
        )
        self.b = self.add_weight(
            shape=(self.units,), initializer="random_normal", trainable=True
        )

    def call(self, inputs):
        return tf.matmul(inputs, self.w) + self.b


# Instantiate our lazy layer.
linear_layer = Linear(4)

# This will also call `build(input_shape)` and create the weights.
y = linear_layer(tf.ones((2, 2)))

"""
## Layer gradients

You can automatically retrieve the gradients of the weights of a layer by
calling it inside a `GradientTape`. Using these gradients, you can update the
weights of the layer, either manually, or using an optimizer object. Of course,
you can modify the gradients before using them, if you need to.
"""

# Prepare a dataset.
(x_train, y_train), _ = tf.keras.datasets.mnist.load_data()
dataset = tf.data.Dataset.from_tensor_slices(
    (x_train.reshape(60000, 784).astype("float32") / 255, y_train)
)
dataset = dataset.shuffle(buffer_size=1024).batch(64)

# Instantiate our linear layer (defined above) with 10 units.
linear_layer = Linear(10)

# Instantiate a logistic loss function that expects integer targets.

        # Forward pass.
        logits = linear_layer(x)

        # Loss value for this batch.
        loss = loss_fn(y, logits)

    # Get gradients of the loss wrt the weights.
    gradients = tape.gradient(loss, linear_layer.trainable_weights)

    # Update the weights of our linear layer.
    optimizer.apply_gradients(zip(gradients, linear_layer.trainable_weights))

    # Logging.
    if step % 100 == 0:
        print("Step:", step, "Loss:", float(loss))

"""
## Trainable and non-trainable weights

Weights created by layers can be either trainable or non-trainable. They're
exposed in `trainable_weights` and `non_trainable_weights` respectively.
Here's a layer with a non-trainable weight:
"""


class ComputeSum(keras.layers.Layer):
    """Returns the sum of the inputs."""

    def __init__(self, input_dim):
        super().__init__()
        # Create a non-trainable weight.
        self.total = tf.Variable(initial_value=tf.zeros((input_dim,)), trainable=False)

    def call(self, inputs):
        self.total.assign_add(tf.reduce_sum(inputs, axis=0))
        return self.total


my_sum = ComputeSum(2)
x = tf.ones((2, 2))

y = my_sum(x)
print(y.numpy())  # [2. 2.]

y = my_sum(x)
print(y.numpy())  # [4. 4.]

assert my_sum.weights == [my_sum.total]
assert my_sum.non_trainable_weights == [my_sum.total]
assert my_sum.trainable_weights == []

"""
## Layers that own layers

Layers can be recursively nested to create bigger computation blocks.
Each layer will track the weights of its sublayers
(both trainable and non-trainable).
"""

# Let's reuse the Linear class
# with a `build` method that we defined above.


class MLP(keras.layers.Layer):
    """Simple stack of Linear layers."""

        return self.linear_3(x)


mlp = MLP()

# The first call to the `mlp` object will create the weights.
y = mlp(tf.ones(shape=(3, 64)))

# Weights are recursively tracked.
assert len(mlp.weights) == 6

"""
Note that our manually-created MLP above is equivalent to the following
built-in option:
"""

mlp = keras.Sequential(
    [
        keras.layers.Dense(32, activation=tf.nn.relu),
        keras.layers.Dense(32, activation=tf.nn.relu),
        keras.layers.Dense(10),
    ]
)

"""
## Tracking losses created by layers

Layers can create losses during the forward pass via the `add_loss()` method.
This is especially useful for regularization losses.
The losses created by sublayers are recursively tracked by the parent layers.

Here's a layer that creates an activity regularization loss:
"""


class ActivityRegularization(keras.layers.Layer):
    """Layer that creates an activity sparsity regularization loss."""

        # that depends on the inputs.
        self.add_loss(self.rate * tf.reduce_sum(inputs))
        return inputs


"""
Any model incorporating this layer will track this regularization loss:
"""

## Keeping track of training metrics

Keras offers a broad range of built-in metrics, like `tf.keras.metrics.AUC`
or `tf.keras.metrics.PrecisionAtRecall`. It's also easy to create your
own metrics in a few lines of code.

To use a metric in a custom training loop, you would:

- Instantiate the metric object, e.g. `metric = tf.keras.metrics.AUC()`
- Call its `metric.udpate_state(targets, predictions)` method for each batch of data
- Query its result via `metric.result()`
- Reset the metric's state at the end of an epoch or at the start of an evaluation via
`metric.reset_state()`

Here's a simple example:
"""

# Instantiate a metric object
accuracy = tf.keras.metrics.SparseCategoricalAccuracy()

# Prepare our layer, loss, and optimizer.
model = keras.Sequential(
    [
        keras.layers.Dense(32, activation="relu"),
        keras.layers.Dense(32, activation="relu"),
        keras.layers.Dense(10),
    ]
)
loss_fn = tf.keras.losses.SparseCategoricalCrossentropy(from_logits=True)
optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=1e-3)

for epoch in range(2):
    # Iterate over the batches of a dataset.
    for step, (x, y) in enumerate(dataset):
        with tf.GradientTape() as tape:
            logits = model(x)
            # Compute the loss value for this batch.
            loss_value = loss_fn(y, logits)

        # Update the state of the `accuracy` metric.
        accuracy.update_state(y, logits)

        # Update the weights of the model to minimize the loss value.
        gradients = tape.gradient(loss_value, model.trainable_weights)
        optimizer.apply_gradients(zip(gradients, model.trainable_weights))

        # Logging the current accuracy value so far.
        if step % 200 == 0:
            print("Epoch:", epoch, "Step:", step)
            print("Total running accuracy so far: %.3f" % accuracy.result())

    # Reset the metric's state at the end of an epoch
    accuracy.reset_state()

"""
In addition to this, similarly to the `self.add_loss()` method, you have access
to an `self.add_metric()` method on layers. It tracks the average of
whatever quantity you pass to it. You can reset the value of these metrics
by calling `layer.reset_metrics()` on any layer or model.
"""

"""
You can also define your own metrics by subclassing `keras.metrics.Metric`.
You need to override the three functions called above:

- Override `update_state()` to update the statistic values.
- Override `result()` to return the metric value.
- Override `reset_state()` to reset the metric to its initial state.

"""
The Functional API tends to be more concise than subclassing, and provides a few other
advantages (generally the same advantages that functional, typed languages provide over
untyped OO development). However, it can only be used to define DAGs of layers --
recursive networks should be defined as Layer subclasses instead.

Learn more about the Functional API [here](/guides/functional_api/).

In your research workflows, you may often find yourself mix-and-matching OO models and
Functional models.

Note that the `Model` class also features built-in training & evaluation loops:
`fit()`, `predict()` and `evaluate()` (configured via the `compile()` method).
These built-in functions give you access to the
following built-in training infrastructure features:

* [Callbacks](/api/callbacks/). You can leverage built-in
callbacks for early-stopping, model checkpointing,
and monitoring training with TensorBoard. You can also
[implement custom callbacks](/guides/writing_your_own_callbacks/) if needed.
* [Distributed training](https://keras.io/guides/distributed_training/). You
can easily scale up your training to multiple GPUs, TPU, or even multiple machines
with the `tf.distribute` API -- with no changes to your code.
* [Step fusing](https://keras.io/api/models/model_training_apis/#compile-method).
With the `steps_per_execution` argument in `Model.compile()`, you can process
multiple batches in a single `tf.function` call, which greatly improves
device utilization on TPUs.

We won't go into the details, but we provide a simple code example
below. It leverages the built-in training infrastructure to implement the MNIST
example above.

"""
You can always subclass the `Model` class (it works exactly like subclassing
`Layer`) if you want to leverage built-in training loops for your OO models.
Just override the `Model.train_step()` to
customize what happens in `fit()` while retaining support
for the built-in infrastructure features outlined above -- callbacks,
zero-code distribution support, and step fusing support.
You may also override `test_step()` to customize what happens in `evaluate()`,
and override `predict_step()` to customize what happens in `predict()`. For more
information, please refer to

## End-to-end experiment example 1: variational autoencoders.

Here are some of the things you've learned so far:

- A `Layer` encapsulates a state (created in `__init__` or `build`) and some computation
(defined in `call`).
- Layers can be recursively nested to create new, bigger computation blocks.
- You can easily write highly hackable training loops by opening a
`GradientTape`, calling your model inside the tape's scope, then retrieving
gradients and applying them via an optimizer.
- You can speed up your training loops using the `@tf.function` decorator.
- Layers can create and track losses (typically regularization losses) via
`self.add_loss()`.

Let's put all of these things together into an end-to-end example: we're going to
implement a Variational AutoEncoder (VAE). We'll train it on MNIST digits.

Our VAE will be a subclass of `Layer`, built as a nested composition of layers that
subclass `Layer`. It will feature a regularization loss (KL divergence).

is quick and painless.

Now, you may find that the code above is somewhat verbose: we handle every little detail

our VAE looks like:
