Keras stateful LSTM error: Specified a list with shape [4,1] from a tensor with shape [32,1]

Time:02-25

With this code I get an error while I try to run the prediction with X_test. The error occurs after the fitting, while y_pred = model.predict(X_test) is executed.

X_train.input_shape()
-> (784, 300, 7)
y_train.input_shape()
-> (784, 300, 1)

X_test.input_shape()
-> (124,300,7)
y_test.input_shape()
-> (124,300,1)


batchsize = 4
model = Sequential()
model.add(Masking(mask_value=0, batch_input_shape=(batchsize, len(X_train[0]),len(X_train[0][0]))))
model.add(Bidirectional(LSTM(200, return_sequences=True, stateful=True)))
model.add(TimeDistributed(Dense(len(classdict))))
model.compile(loss="sparse_categorical_crossentropy",
              optimizer=Adam(0.001),
              metrics=['accuracy'])
model.summary()
model.fit(X_train, y_train, epochs=1, batch_size=batchsize)
y_pred = model.predict(X_test) 

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

In my opinion, the error could be related to the selected batchsize. In my research I read that the number of samples has to be divisible by the batchsize for stateful LSTMs. So I searched for the greatest common divisor of the number of samples of X_train and X_test, so GCD(124,784) = 4 = batchsize. However, now this error occurs, I have already tried different batchsizes, but then other errors occur. Has someone a idea/fix for this?

CodePudding user response:

You just need to make sure that the number of training samples can be divided evenly by the batch size. Here is a working example:

import tensorflow as tf

X_train = tf.random.normal((784, 300, 7))
y_train = tf.random.normal((784, 300, 1))
X_test = tf.random.normal((124,300,7))

batchsize = 4
model = tf.keras.Sequential()
model.add(tf.keras.layers.Masking(mask_value=0, batch_input_shape=(batchsize, len(X_train[0]),len(X_train[0][0]))))
model.add(tf.keras.layers.Bidirectional(tf.keras.layers.LSTM(200, return_sequences=True, stateful=True)))
model.add(tf.keras.layers.TimeDistributed(tf.keras.layers.Dense(1)))
model.compile(loss="mse",
              optimizer=tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(0.001))
model.summary()
model.fit(X_train, y_train, batch_size=batchsize, epochs=1)
Model: "sequential_5"

And also explicitly set the batch size when predicting, since according to the docs if left unspecified, batch_size will default to 32:

X_test = tf.random.normal((124,300,7))
y_pred = model.predict(X_test, batch_size=batchsize) 
print(y_pred.shape)
(124, 300, 1)

Also make sure your batch is the same everywhere.
