はじめに
ディープラーニングのフレームワークTensorFlowは各種処理をProtocol Buffers経由で外だしすることで、PythonとGPU/分散コンピュータとのスイッチングを減らし、計算を効率化しています。
Protocol Buffersは、Googleの分散コンピューティングを支える技術で、言語非依存、プラットフォーム非依存にデータ構造をシリアライズする仕組みです。現在、C++, C#, GO, Java, Pythonがサポートされています。
TensorFlowは、処理をノードとしてグラフを構築し、一気に計算する仕組みになっています。
グラフの例
以下TensorFlowのグラフがProtocol Buffers形式にシリアライズされる様子を見てみたいと思います。
サンプルプログラム
TensorFlowで足し算をしてみます。
初期値0で加算1を3回実行します。
import tensorflow as tf
state = tf.Variable(0, name="counter")
one = tf.constant(1)
new_value = tf.add(state, one)
update = tf.assign(state, new_value)
init_op = tf.initialize_all_variables()
with tf.Session() as sess:
sess.run(init_op)
print(sess.run(state))
for _ in range(3):
sess.run(update)
print(sess.run(state))
TensorBoardのグラフ
Protocol Buffers
以下、TensorFlowを使ったPythonのプログラムが、Protocol Buffersのノードに変換されると、どのようになるのかを見ていきます。
変数の定義
- Python
state = tf.Variable(0, name="counter")
- Protocol Buffers:counterという名前の変数
name: "counter"
op: "Variable"
attr {
key: "container"
value {
s: ""
}
}
attr {
key: "dtype"
value {
type: DT_INT32
}
}
attr {
key: "shape"
value {
shape {
}
}
}
attr {
key: "shared_name"
value {
s: ""
}
}
- Protocol Buffers:初期値0(定数)の定義
name: "counter/initial_value"
op: "Const"
attr {
key: "dtype"
value {
type: DT_INT32
}
}
attr {
key: "value"
value {
tensor {
dtype: DT_INT32
tensor_shape {
}
int_val: 0
}
}
}
- Protocol Buffers:変数counterに初期値0をアサイン
name: "counter/Assign"
op: "Assign"
input: "counter"
input: "counter/initial_value"
attr {
key: "T"
value {
type: DT_INT32
}
}
attr {
key: "_class"
value {
list {
s: "loc:@counter"
}
}
}
attr {
key: "use_locking"
value {
b: true
}
}
attr {
key: "validate_shape"
value {
b: true
}
}
- Protocol Buffers:変数counterを読みだす
name: "counter/read"
op: "Identity"
input: "counter"
attr {
key: "T"
value {
type: DT_INT32
}
}
attr {
key: "_class"
value {
list {
s: "loc:@counter"
}
}
}
定数(加算値)の定義
- Python
one = tf.constant(1)
- Protocol Buffers:定数1の定義
name: "Const"
op: "Const"
attr {
key: "dtype"
value {
type: DT_INT32
}
}
attr {
key: "value"
value {
tensor {
dtype: DT_INT32
tensor_shape {
}
int_val: 1
}
}
}
加算オペレーションの定義
- Python
one = tf.constant(1)
- Protocol Buffers:加算オペレーションを定義
name: "Add"
op: "Add"
input: "counter/read"
input: "Const"
attr {
key: "T"
value {
type: DT_INT32
}
}
加算結果を変数に値を代入
- Python
update = tf.assign(state, new_value)
- Protocol Buffers:加算結果を変数に値を代入
name: "Assign"
op: "Assign"
input: "counter"
input: "Add"
attr {
key: "T"
value {
type: DT_INT32
}
}
attr {
key: "_class"
value {
list {
s: "loc:@counter"
}
}
}
attr {
key: "use_locking"
value {
b: true
}
}
attr {
key: "validate_shape"
value {
b: true
}
}
おわりに
Pythonプログラムの裏でTensorFlowがProtocol Buffersを利用していることを理解していると、なぜその場所にTensorFlowの処理が差し込まれているのか、分かってくるのではないでしょうか。
TensorFlowには、ベースとなる各種処理が用意されています(API)。
- グラフ
- 変数
- テンソル
- 数学
- 文字列
- 制御構文
- アサーション
- イメージ
- 動画
- 入出力
- ニューラルネットワーク
- オペレーションのサマリー
- ユニットテスト
TensorFlowをディープラーニングのフレームワークとしてではなく、GPUコンピューティング/分散コンピューティングのフレームワークとして利用してみるのも面白いですね。
