Graph disconected: transfer-learning model with top-layer

[KENJI-JIN]

I built the transfer-learning model below.
top_layer is used to resize images for utilizing more information of images .

conv_base = MobileNetV3Small(weights='imagenet',
include_top=False,
input_shape=(224, 224, 3))

input_width=450
input_height=450
inputs = tf.keras.Input(shape=(input_height, input_width, 3))

top_layer = layers.Conv2D(filters=3, kernel_size=3, strides=1)(inputs)
top_layer = layers.MaxPool2D(pool_size=(2, 2))(top_layer)

x = conv_base(top_layer, training=False)
x = layers.GlobalAveragePooling2D()(x)
#x = layers.Dropout(0.2)(x)

outputs = layers.Dense(1)(x)
outputs = layers.Activation("sigmoid")(outputs)

model = Model(inputs, outputs)

Then when I try to call to GradCam I get:
ValueError: Graph disconnected:

I reffered this site. But I am using top_layer, so I could not do same way.

How can I solve this? Could you give me any idea?

Hi, @KENJI-JIN .

At least, as far as I know, we can't avoid the error when we apply Gradcam to a model that contains a sub-model as a layer.
( If you construct the model that has the same layers as the sub-model and then copy the weights of the layers of the sub-model to the layers of the model you constructed, you might achieve it. But I don't know whether it works well. )

So I recommend you to adopt ScoreCAM that is the gradient-free method.
For details, please see the notebook below:

[KENJI-JIN]

Thank you for your response. I will try to adopt ScoreCAM.

[keisen]

@KENJI-JIN , we found some problem in ScoreCAM, so we recommend you to temporally install and use the commit below:

pip install -U git+https://github.com/keisen/tf-keras-vis.git@4a90becb02ed3d44825300fcb807dd58157787ba

I'm sorry to have troubled you.
The next release which includes the commit above will be published in few days.

Thanks!

[KENJI-JIN]

Thank you for your information. I will upgrade it.

Hi @keisen

Regarding these:

I applied ScoreCAM to a model that contained a sub-model as layer, but I still got the same error ValueError: Graph disconnected. I am using the latest version 0.7.2.

Here's a minimal, reproducible example:

# ScoreCAM issue

import numpy as np
from tf_keras_vis.scorecam import ScoreCAM
from tf_keras_vis.utils.model_modifiers import ReplaceToLinear
from tf_keras_vis.utils.scores import CategoricalScore

from tensorflow.keras.applications.vgg16 import VGG16
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense, GlobalAveragePooling2D, Input
from tensorflow.keras.models import Model
from tensorflow.keras.datasets import cifar10
from tensorflow.keras.preprocessing.image import ImageDataGenerator
from tensorflow.keras.utils import to_categorical


def get_model():
    base_model = VGG16(
        weights="imagenet", include_top=False, input_shape=(32, 32, 3)
    )
    base_model.trainable = False
    inputs = Input(shape=(32, 32, 3))
    x = base_model(inputs, training=False)
    x = GlobalAveragePooling2D()(x)
    outputs = Dense(10, activation='softmax')(x)
    model = Model(inputs, outputs)
    return model


if __name__ == '__main__':
    (x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = cifar10.load_data()
    y_train, y_test = to_categorical(y_train), to_categorical(y_test)
    generator = ImageDataGenerator(rescale=1/255.)
    data_gen = generator.flow(x_train, y_train, batch_size=64)

    model = get_model()
    model.compile(
        loss="categorical_crossentropy", optimizer="adam", metrics=["accuracy"]
    )
    history = model.fit(
        data_gen,
        epochs=2  # just for the sake of this example
    )

    img, label = x_test[1]/255, np.argmax(y_test[1])

    scorecam = ScoreCAM(model, model_modifier=ReplaceToLinear(), clone=True)
    sc = scorecam(CategoricalScore(label), img, penultimate_layer=-1)
    # the last line, raises:
    # ValueError: Graph disconnected: cannot obtain value for tensor KerasTensor
    # (type_spec=TensorSpec(shape=(None, 32, 32, 3), dtype=tf.float32, name='input_3'),
    # name='input_3', description="created by layer 'input_3'") at layer "block1_conv1".
    # The following previous layers were accessed without issue: []

Do you have any idea what could be wrong? Thanks in advance

[keisen]

@amessalas , you can avoid the error by improving get_model() function to as follows

def get_model():
    base_model = VGG16(
        weights="imagenet", include_top=False, input_shape=(32, 32, 3)
    )
    base_model.trainable = False
    x = base_model.output
    x = GlobalAveragePooling2D()(x)
    outputs = Dense(10, activation='softmax')(x)
    model = Model(base_model.inputs, outputs)
    return model

Thanks!

Hi @KENJI-JIN , have you resolved this issue?
If not yet, please feel free to ask us anything you're facing.

Thanks!

[KENJI-JIN]

Thank you for contacting me.

I haven't resolved this issue yet.
I avoided it by creating a model from scratch without using a pre-trained model.
When I use a pre-trained model with "include_top=False", I will refer to the above comments.
If I have the same trouble again, I will ask in this issue.

Thank you in advance.

[keisen]

@KENJI-JIN , I'm happy to hear that you were able to avoid the error.

When I use a pre-trained model with "include_top=False", I will refer to the above comments.
If I have the same trouble again, I will ask in this issue.

I see. I'm looking forward to good news!

Finally, if you like tf-keras-vis, please star this repository.
Thanks!

[svaningelgem]

I had exactly the same issue and found a solution for it. (watch out! i'm a beginner at this)

Maybe it's easy to integrate into this library as the method should be generic enough?
Added it in here: https://medium.vaningelgem.be/how-to-flatten-a-keras-model-68b8716e296c

Hi @keisen !

I have a similar problem here, don't know if you could help me.

This is the model i need to use grad-cam:
This is a binary classification problem.

Model: "functional_1"

input_1 (InputLayer) [(None, 141, 898, 1 0 []

sequential (Sequential) (None, 64) 26448 ['input_1[0][0]']

When i run Grad-Cam, i got this:

ValueError: Graph disconnected: cannot obtain value for tensor KerasTensor(type_spec=TensorSpec(shape=(None, 12, 144, 224, 1), dtype=tf.float32, name='conv3d_input'), name='conv3d_input', description="created by layer 'conv3d_input'") at layer "conv3d". The following previous layers were accessed without issue: []

Running ScoreCam i got the same answer...

Hello,

Does Anyone find a solution for this problem?

Thank you

[tguttenb]

Hi, I am also trying to apply functions from this package on a transfer learning problem and am getting a similar issue using Gradcam, below. Is there any update or ideas for work around on these features? Any more information about fixes or issues on this type of would be helpful.

File "C:\Users\paperspace\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\tf_keras_vis\gradcam.py", line 105, in call
cam = self._calculate_cam(grads, penultimate_output, gradient_modifier,

File "C:\Users\paperspace\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\tf_keras_vis\gradcam.py", line 124, in _calculate_cam
weights = K.mean(grads, axis=tuple(range(grads.ndim)[1:-1]), keepdims=True)

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'ndim'

Thanks,
Tom
