COMP9444 Neural Networks and Deep Learning
Term 2, 2021
Project 1 – Characters, Spirals and Hidden Unit Dynamics
Due: Friday 16 July, 23:59 pm

Marks: 30% of final assessment
In this assignment, you will be implementing and training various neural network models for four different tasks, and analysing the
results.
You are to submit three Python files kuzu.py, rect.py and encoder.py, as well as a written report hw1.pdf (in pdf format).
Provided Files
Copy the archive hw1.zip into your own filespace and unzip it. This should create a directory hw1 with the data file rect.csv,
subdirectories plot and net, as well as eleven Python files kuzu.py, rect.py, encoder.py, kuzu_main.py, rect_main.py, endoder_main.py,
encoder_model.py, seq_train.py, seq_plot.py, reber.py and anbn.py.
Your task is to complete the skeleton files kuzu.py, rect.py, encoder.py and submit them, along with your report.
Part 1: Japanese Character Recognition
For Part 1 of the assignment you will be implementing networks to recognize handwritten Hiragana symbols. The dataset to be used
is Kuzushiji-MNIST or KMNIST for short. The paper describing the dataset is available here. It is worth reading, but in short:
significant changes occurred to the language when Japan reformed their education system in 1868, and the majority of Japanese
today cannot read texts published over 150 years ago. This paper presents a dataset of handwritten, labeled examples of this old-
style script (Kuzushiji). Along with this dataset, however, they also provide a much simpler one, containing 10 Hiragana characters
with 7000 samples per class. This is the dataset we will be using.
Text from 1772 (left) compared to 1900 showing the standardization of written Japanese.

  1. [1 mark] Implement a model NetLin which computes a linear function of the pixels in the image, followed by log softmax. Run
    the code by typing:
    python3 kuzu_main.py –net lin
    Copy the final accuracy and confusion matrix into your report. The final accuracy should be around 70%. Note that the rows of
    the confusion matrix indicate the target character, while the columns indicate the one chosen by the network. (0=”o”, 1=”ki”,
    2=”su”, 3=”tsu”, 4=”na”, 5=”ha”, 6=”ma”, 7=”ya”, 8=”re”, 9=”wo”). More examples of each character can be found here.
  2. [1 mark] Implement a fully connected 2-layer network NetFull (i.e. one hidden layer, plus the output layer), using tanh at the
    hidden nodes and log softmax at the output node. Run the code by typing:
    python3 kuzu_main.py –net full
    2021/6/29 COMP9444 Project 1
    https://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs9444/21T2/hw1/ 2/5
    Try different values (multiples of 10) for the number of hidden nodes and try to determine a value that achieves high accuracy
    (at least 84%) on the test set. Copy the final accuracy and confusion matrix into your report.
  3. [1 marks] Implement a convolutional network called NetConv, with two convolutional layers plus one fully connected layer, all
    using relu activation function, followed by the output layer, using log softmax. You are free to choose for yourself the number
    and size of the filters, metaparameter values (learning rate and momentum), and whether to use max pooling or a fully
    convolutional architecture. Run the code by typing:
    python3 kuzu_main.py –net conv
    Your network should consistently achieve at least 93% accuracy on the test set after 10 training epochs. Copy the final
    accuracy and confusion matrix into your report.
  4. [3 marks] Briefly discuss the following points:
    a. the relative accuracy of the three models,
    b. the confusion matrix for each model: which characters are most likely to be mistaken for which other characters, and
    why?
    Part 2: Rectangular Spirals Task
    For Part 2 you will be training a network to distinguish two intertwined rectangular spirals. The supplied code rect_main.py loads the
    training data from rect.csv, applies the specified model and produces a graph of the resulting function, along with the data. For this
    task there is no test set as such, but we instead judge the generalization by plotting the function computed by the network and
    making a visual assessment.
  5. [2 marks] Provide code for a Pytorch Module called Network which is initialized with two parameters layer and hid.
    If layer == 1 the network should only have one hidden layer, with hid units. If layer == 2 it should have two (fully connected)
    hidden layers, each with hid units. The tanh activation function should be applied at each hidden layer, and sigmoid at the
    output layer.
  6. [2 marks] Using graph_output() as a guide, write a method called graph_hidden(net, layer, node) which plots the activation
    (after applying the tanh function) of the hidden node with the specified number (node) in the specified layer (1 or 2).
    Specifically, it should show where the activation is positive and where it is negative.
    Hint: you might need to modify forward() so that the hidden unit activations are retained, i.e. replace hid1 = torch.tanh(…)
    with self.hid1 = torch.tanh(…)
  7. [1 mark] Train a network with one hidden layer by typing:
    python3 rect_main.py –layer 1 –hid 10
    Try to determine a number of hidden nodes close to the mininum required for the network to be trained successfully (although,
    it need not be the absolute minimum). You may need to run the network several times before finding a set of initial weights
    which allows it to converge. (If it trains for a minute or so and seems to be stuck in a local minimum, kill it with ?cntrl?-c and
    run it again). You are free to adjust the learning rate and initial weight size, if you want to. The graph_output() method will
    2021/6/29 COMP9444 Project 1
    https://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs9444/21T2/hw1/ 3/5
    generate a picture of the function computed by your Network and store it in the plot subdirectory with a name like out?_?.png.
    You should include this picture in your report. Your graph_hidden() method should generate plots of all the hidden nodes, which
    you should also include in your report.
  8. [1 mark] Train a network with two hidden layers by typing:
    python3 rect_main.py –layer 2 –hid 10
    As before, try to determine a number of hidden nodes close to the mininum required for the network to be trained successfully.
    You should include the graphs of the output and the hidden nodes in your report.
  9. [3 marks] Briefly discuss the following points:
    a. a qualitative description of the functions computed by the different layers of the two networks,
    b. the qualitative difference, if any, between the overall function (i.e. output as a function of input) computed by the two
    networks.
    Part 3: Encoder Networks
    In Part 3 you will be editing the file encoder.py to create a dataset which, when run in combination with encoder_main.py, produces
    the stylized map of Australia shown below.
    You should first run the code by typing
    python3 encoder_main.py –target star16
    Note that target is determined by the tensor star16 in encoder.py, which has 16 rows and 8 columns, indicating that there are 16
    inputs and 8 outputs. The inputs use a one-hot encoding and are generated in the form of an identity matrix using torch.eye()
  10. [2 marks] Create by hand a dataset in the form of a tensor called aust26 in the file encoder.py which, when run with the
    following command, will produce an image essentially the same as the stylized map of Australia shown above (but possibly
    rotated or reflected).
    python3 encoder_main.py –target aust26
    The pattern of dots and lines must be identical, except for the possible rotation or reflection. Note in particular the six “anchor
    points” in the corners and on the edge of the figure.
    Your tensor should have 26 rows and 20 columns. Include the final image in your report, and include the tensor aust26 in your
    file encoder.py
    Part 4: Hidden Unit Dynamics for Recurrent Networks
    2021/6/29 COMP9444 Project 1
    https://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs9444/21T2/hw1/ 4/5
    In Part 4 you will be investigating the hidden unit dynamics of recurrent networks trained on language prediction tasks, using the
    supplied code seq_train.py and seq_plot.py.
  11. [3 marks] Train a Simple Recurrent Network (SRN) on the Reber Grammar prediction task by typing
    python3 seq_train.py –lang reber
    This SRN has 7 inputs, 2 hidden units and 7 outputs. The trained networks are stored every 10000 epochs, in the net
    subdirectory. After the training finishes, plot the hidden unit activations at epoch 50000 by typing
    python3 seq_plot.py –lang reber –epoch 50
    The dots should be arranged in discernable clusters by color. If they are not, run the code again until the training is successful.
    The hidden unit activations are printed according to their “state”, using the colormap “jet”:
    Based on this colormap, annotate your figure (either electronically, or with a pen on a printout) by drawing a circle around the
    cluster of points corresponding to each state in the state machine, and drawing arrows between the states, with each arrow
    labeled with its corresponding symbol. Include the annotated figure in your report.
  12. [1 mark] Train an SRN on the a
    n
    b
    n
    language prediction task by typing
    python3 seq_train.py –lang anbn
    The a
    n
    b
    n
    language is a concatenation of a random number of A’s followed by an equal number of B’s. The SRN has 2 inputs, 2
    hidden units and 2 outputs.
    Look at the predicted probabilities of A and B as the training progresses. The first B in each sequence and all A’s after the first
    A are not deterministic and can only be predicted in a probabilistic sense. But, if the training is successful, all other symbols
    should be correctly predicted. In particular, the network should predict the last B in each sequence as well as the subsequent A.
    The error should be consistently in the range of 0.01 or 0.02. If the network appears to have learned the task successfully, you
    can stop it at any time using ?cntrl?-c. If it appears to be stuck in a local minimum, you can stop it and run the code again until
    it is successful.
    After the training finishes, plot the hidden unit activations by typing
    python3 seq_plot.py –lang anbn –epoch 100
    2021/6/29 COMP9444 Project 1
    https://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs9444/21T2/hw1/ 5/5
    Include the resulting figure in your report. The states are again printed according to the colormap “jet”. Note, however, that
    these “states” are not unique but are instead used to count either the number of A’s we have seen or the number of B’s we are
    still expecting to see.
  13. [2 marks] Briefly explain how the a
    n
    b
    n
    prediction task is achieved by the network, based on the figure you generated in
    Question 2.
  14. [1 mark] Train an SRN on the a
    n
    b
    n
    c
    n
    language prediction task by typing
    python3 seq_train.py –lang anbncn
    The SRN now has 3 inputs, 3 hidden units and 3 outputs. Again, the “state” is used to count up the A’s and count down the B’s
    and C’s. Continue training (re-starting, if necessary) until the network is able to reliably predict all the C’s as well as the
    subsequent A, and the error is consistently in the range of 0.01 or 0.02.
    After the training finishes, plot the hidden unit activations by typing
    python3 seq_plot.py –lang anbncn –epoch 200
    Rotate the figure in 3 dimensions to get one or more good view(s) of the points in hidden unit space.
  15. [2 marks] Briefly explain how the a
    n
    b
    n
    c
    n
    prediction task is achieved by the network, based on the figure you generated in
    Question 4.
  16. [4 marks] This question is intended to be more challenging. Train an LSTM network to predict the Embedded Reber Grammar,
    by typing
    python3 seq_train.py –lang reber –embed True –model lstm –hid 8
    You can adjust the number of hidden nodes if you wish. Once the training is successful, try to analyse the behavior of the
    LSTM and explain how the task is accomplished.
