Parallel random matrix tools and random matrix theory deep learning applications. Generate matrices from Circular Unitary Ensemble (CUE), Circular Ortogonal Ensemble (COE) and Circular Symplectic Ensemble (CSE). Additional spectral analysis utilities are also implemented, such as computation of spectral density and spectral ergodicity for complexity of deep learning architectures.

Features

• Generation of Circular Ensembles: CUE, COE and CSE.
• Random matrices: Reproducibility both in serial and parallel processing.
• Eigenvalue Spectra, spectral densitiy.
• Kullbach-Leibler divergence and spectral ergodicity measure functionality.
• Cascading Periodic Spectral Ergodicity (cPSE) : This is a complexity measure and could also detect when to stop addinig more layers.

Documentation

Complexity of a deep learning model: cPSE

Vanilla case

In the vanilla case a list of matrices that are representative of ordered set of weight matrices can be used to compute cPSE over layers. As an examples:

from bristol import cPSE
import numpy as np
np.random.seed(42)
matrices = [np.random.normal(size=(64,64)) for _ in range(10)]
(d_layers, cpse) = cPSE.cpse_measure_vanilla(matrices)

Even for set of Gaussian matrices, d_layers decrease. Note that different layer types should be converted to a matrix format, i.e., CNNs to 2D matrices. See the main paper.

When should I stop adding more layers in deep learning?

d_layers is a decreasing vector, it will saturate at some point, that point is where adding more layers won’t improve the performance. This is data, learning and architecture independent measure.

For torch models

You need to put your model as pretrained model format of PyTorch. An example for vgg, and use cPSE.cpse_measure function simply:

from bristol import cPSE
import torchvision.models as models
netname = 'vgg11'
pmodel = getattr(models, netname)(pretrained=True)
(d_layers, cpse) = cPSE.cpse_measure(pmodel)

This would give cpse a single number expressing the complexity of your network and d_layers evolution of periodic spectral ergodicity withing layers as a vector, order matters.
