轻量级CNN网络之MobileNetv2

叶虎


MobileNet网络是Google提出主要应用在移动端的轻量级CNN网络,之前的文章(CNN模型之MobileNet)已经对MobileNetv1版本进行了详细的介绍。目前,Google已经公开了MobileNetv2,它相比v1更高效。MobileNetv2依然使用v1中的depthwise separable convolution,区别在于v2又引入了残差结构和bottleneck层,这种新的结构称为Bottleneck residual block

Depthwise Separable Convolution

Depthwise Separable Convolution是MobileNetv1所采用的核心结构,如图 1所示,它包含一个depthwise卷积和1x1卷积(或者称为pointwise卷积),这种结构将空间相关性和通道相关性分离(见Xception文章),相比传统的卷积,它可以减少约计算复杂度,当卷积核时,大约比原来计算花费少8~9倍,但是却在准确度方面损失很少。MobileNetv2作为v1的升级版,也主要采用Depthwise Separable Convolution结构。

Linear Bottlenecks

对于CNN网络某一层的特征图,其维度大小为,我们感兴趣的是它的核心信息,这里称为“主要流形”(manifold of interest)。而“主要流形”是可以用一个低维度空间来表达的。这实际上是说神经网络某层特征,其主要信息可以用一个低维度特征来表征。据此,我们可以在网络引入“bottlenck layer”来表征某一个深层特征的“主要流形”,作者发现这个“bottlenck layer”最好采用线性激活,而不是采用ReLU,因为在“bottlenck layer”采用非线性激活会损失很多信息,毕竟特征已经在低维度空间(paper中有理论分析和实验证明)。在Depthwise Separable Convolution引入“bottlenck layer”后,结构如图2所示,其中浅色代表的是下一个block的开始,并且注意方块代表的是特征图,而红色映射才是卷积或者ReLU操作。图2-a是常规的卷积,而图2-b是Depthwise Separable Convolution,这在MobileNetv1中大量使用。当在Depthwise Separable Convolution后面加入“bottlenck layer”就变成了图2-c,但是考虑到block是互相堆积的,调整一下视角,如果将“bottlenck layer”看成block的输入,那么这种结构也等价于图2-d。对于图2-d,block中开始的1x1卷积层称为“expansion layer”,它的通道大小(inner size)和输入bottleneck层的通道大小之比,称为扩展比(expansion ratio)。扩展层之后是depthwise卷积,然后采用1x1卷积得到block的输出特征,这个卷积后面没有非线性激活。对于图2-d这种结构,block的输入和输出特征是bottleneck特征,所以这个block称为bottleneck block,至于为什么要采用图2-d的视角,而不是图2-c,后面会有说明。

图2 加入linear bottlenecks的Depthwise Separable Convolution

Inverted Residuals

当我们在上面的block中加入短路连接,它就变成了残差结构,但是这个shortcut connection是在bottlenecks之间。这与常规的残差block是相反的,因为residual block一般先采用bottleneck layer进行降维,最后进行扩展。两者的差异如图3所示,可以看到两者的bottleneck的位置恰恰相反,paper里面称这种相反的残差block为inverted residual block。前面也说了,大家可能会疑惑为什么要采用这种相反的结构呢,paper说这种结果可以在实现上减少内存的使用,这点paper里面有详细的说明,另外一点是这种相反的结构从实验结果上也更好一点。

网络结构

前面我们讲了MobileNetv2相比v1的两个主要改进:linear bottleneck和inverted residual。改进后的新结构称为bottleneck residual block,表1给出了这个block的内部结构,其中t是扩展比。

表1 Bottleneck residual block的内部构成

Bottleneck residual block其实包含3层卷积操作,图4更直观的给出了block的内部结构。首先是一个1x1的卷积,称为expansion layer,它将输入的通道维度从k变换为tk,在实际中t取大于1的值最有效,paper里面的默认值t=6。然后是3x3的depthwise conv,每个通道上是单独卷积的。最后是一个projection layer,它将得到block的输入特征,一般情形下是降低通道大小的,所以是bottleneck layer,如前面所述,bottleneck后面没有采用非线性激活。这种结构一个有意思的特征是它将网络的容量(capacity)和表达力(expressiveness)分离开来。其中bottleneck layer负责的是输入和输出之间的转换,这可以看成capacity,而中间的expansion layer充当的是非线性变换,可以看成是expressiveness。

图4 Bottleneck residual block示意图

这篇博客(MobileNet version 2)对这种结构给出了一个有趣的解释,如5所示。其中expansion layer可以看做解压器,类似unzip,将特征恢复到高维空间,而
depthwise layer可以看成过滤器,筛选比较重要的特征,最后projection layer将其压缩到低维空间。

图5 Bottleneck residual block的另一种解释

MobileNetv2与其它网络的对比如图6所示,值得注意的对于stride=2的block没有采用残差结构。

图6 MobileNetv2与其它网络的结构对比

将block堆积起来,就形成最终的MobileNetv2网络,各个block设计如表2所示,其中t是扩展比,c是block的输出特征的channel大小,n是block的重复次数,s是stride,注意只有对于重复的block只有开始的s才是2。另外与MobileNetv1类似,v2也设计了width multiplier和输入大小两个超参数控制网络的参数量,表2中默认的是width multiplier=1.0,输入大小是224x224。输入大小影响的是特征图空间大小,而width multiplier影响的是特征图channel大小。输入大小可以从96到224,而width multiplier可以从0.35到1.4。值得注意的一点是当width multiplier小于1时,不对最后一个卷积层的channel进行调整以保证性能,即维持1280。

表2 MobileNetv2的网络结构

MobileNetv2在ImageNet上分类效果与其它网络对比如表3所示,可以看到在同样参数大小下,MobileNetv2比MobileNetv1和ShuffleNet要好,而且速度也更快一些。另外MobileNetv2还可以应用在语义分割(DeepLab)和目标检测(SSD)中,也得到了较好的结果。

TensorFlow上的实现

Google已经开源了MobileNetv2的代码,其基于TensorFlow/slim框架实现,slim是一个较好的CNN轻量级框架。这里给出简化版本的实现。

对于MobileNetv2的实际实现中,会对channel进行一些限制,如保证channel的最小值以及是8的倍数,所以会存在如下的辅助函数:

def _make_divisible(v, divisor, min_value=None):
    """make `v` is divided exactly by `divisor`, but keep the min_value"""
    if min_value is None:
        min_value = divisor
    new_v = max(min_value, int(v + divisor / 2) // divisor * divisor)
    # Make sure that round down does not go down by more than 10%.
    if new_v < 0.9 * v:
        new_v += divisor
    return new_v


@slim.add_arg_scope
def _depth_multiplier_func(params,
                           multiplier,
                           divisible_by=8,
                           min_depth=8):
    """get the new channles"""
    if 'num_outputs' not in params:
        return
    d = params['num_outputs']
    params['num_outputs'] = _make_divisible(d * multiplier, divisible_by,
                                                   min_depth)

这些对于通过width multiplier改变channel大小做了一定的限制。然后我们实现网络最核心的结构Bottleneck residual block:

@slim.add_arg_scope
def expanded_conv(x,
                  num_outputs,
                  expansion=6,
                  stride=1,
                  rate=1,
                  normalizer_fn=slim.batch_norm,
                  project_activation_fn=tf.identity,
                  padding="SAME",
                  scope=None):
    """The expand conv op in MobileNetv2
        1x1 conv -> depthwise 3x3 conv -> 1x1 linear conv
    """
    with tf.variable_scope(scope, default_name="expanded_conv") as s, \
       tf.name_scope(s.original_name_scope):
        prev_depth = x.get_shape().as_list()[3]
        # the filters of expanded conv
        inner_size = prev_depth * expansion
        net = x
        # only inner_size > prev_depth, use expanded conv
        if inner_size > prev_depth:
            net = slim.conv2d(net, inner_size, 1, normalizer_fn=normalizer_fn,
                              scope="expand")
        # depthwise conv
        net = slim.separable_conv2d(net, num_outputs=None, kernel_size=3,
                                    depth_multiplier=1, stride=stride,
                                    rate=rate, normalizer_fn=normalizer_fn,
                                    padding=padding, scope="depthwise")
        # projection
        net = slim.conv2d(net, num_outputs, 1, normalizer_fn=normalizer_fn,
                          activation_fn=project_activation_fn, scope="project")

        # residual connection
        if stride == 1 and net.get_shape().as_list()[-1] == prev_depth:
            net += x

        return net

这里的实现相比官方实现做了一定的简化,官方代码中包含很多灵活的参数,但是在实际中却没有采用,所以我选择了paper中的默认配置。注意这里的rate参数主要是为了配合语义分割模型,因为在DeepLab模型会采用空洞卷积来平衡特征图空间大小。

在定义网络之前,我们使用一个简单的Op类,对网络结构进行配置:

_Op = namedtuple("Op", ['op', 'params', 'multiplier_func'])

def op(op_func, **params):
    return _Op(op=op_func, params=params,
               multiplier_func=_depth_multiplier_func)


CONV_DEF = [op(slim.conv2d, num_outputs=32, stride=2, kernel_size=3),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=16, expansion=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=24, stride=2),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=24, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=32, stride=2),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=32, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=32, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=64, stride=2),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=64, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=64, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=64, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=96, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=96, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=96, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=160, stride=2),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=160, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=160, stride=1),
            op(expanded_conv, num_outputs=320, stride=1),
            op(slim.conv2d, num_outputs=1280, stride=1, kernel_size=1),
            ]

然后定义整个网络:

                num_classes=1001,

                logits = tf.squeeze(logits, [1, 2])

                return logits

注意output_stride参数是配合语义分割模型,在DeepLab中output_stride取8或者16,它表示的是特征图最高下采样率,当超过这个值时,采用空洞卷积。

其它的模型超参数,我们可以通过slim的arg_scope来控制,这是slim框架我最喜欢的一个功能:

                        weight_decay=0.00004,

最后可以通过如下代码测试模型(预训练模型官方实现中已经给出):

    inputs = tf.placeholder(tf.uint8, [None, None, 3])
    images = tf.expand_dims(inputs, 0)
    images = tf.cast(images, tf.float32) / 128. - 1
    images.set_shape((None, None, None, 3))
    images = tf.image.resize_images(images, (224, 224))

    with slim.arg_scope(mobilenet_arg_scope(is_training=False)):
        logits = mobilenetv2(images)

    # Restore using exponential moving average since it produces (1.5-2%) higher
    # accuracy
    ema = tf.train.ExponentialMovingAverage(0.999)
    vars = ema.variables_to_restore()

    saver = tf.train.Saver(vars)

    print(len(tf.global_variables()))
    for var in tf.global_variables():
        print(var)
    checkpoint_path = ""
    image_file = ""
    with tf.Session() as sess:
        saver.restore(sess, checkpoint_path)

        img = cv2.imread(image_file)
        img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)

        print(np.argmax(sess.run(logits, feed_dict={inputs: img})[0]))

整个实现代码可以见我的GitHub(xiaohu2015/DeepLearning_tutorials),欢迎star。
