How to use

First, we’ll create a simple dataset for testing using numpy. Inputs values $x_1$, $x_2$ and $x_3$ will be sampled from the normal distribution, while the output value $y$ will be calculated according to the following formula before adding noise to it:

$y = x_1^3 + \sin\left(\frac{x_2}{2 \pi}\right) + e^{-x_3}$

import numpy as np

rng = np.random.default_rng(42)

def generate_data(no_samples: int, noise: float):
    x = rng.normal(size=(no_samples, 3))
    y = x[:, 0] ** 3
    y += np.sin(x[:, 1] / (2*np.pi))
    y += np.exp(-x[:, 2])
    y += noise * rng.normal(size=no_samples)
    return x, y

x_train, y_train = generate_data(10_000, noise=0.1)
x_val, y_val = generate_data(10_000, noise=0.)

First, we’ll build a simple feedforward neural network using Dense layer from Keras library.

import tensorflow as tf

from tensorflow.keras import Sequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense, Input
from tensorflow.keras.optimizers import Adam
from tensorflow.keras.optimizers.schedules import ExponentialDecay

# build a simple model with 3 hidden layer
model = Sequential()

model.add(Input(shape=(3,)))
model.add(Dense(128, activation="elu"))
model.add(Dense(128, activation="elu"))
model.add(Dense(1))

We’ll train the network using the Adam optimizer and the ExponentialDecay learning rate schedule:

def train_model(model, initial_learning_rate):
    # train the model
    lr_schedule = ExponentialDecay(
        initial_learning_rate=initial_learning_rate,
        decay_steps=10_000,
        decay_rate=0.9,
    )
    optimizer = Adam(learning_rate=lr_schedule)
    model.compile(optimizer="adam", loss="mse")

    model.fit(x=x_train, y=y_train, batch_size=32, validation_data=(x_val, y_val), epochs=10)
    
train_model(model, initial_learning_rate=.1)

Epoch 10/10

Now, we’ll use the MonotonicDense layer instead of Dense layer. By default, the MonotonicDense layer assumes the output of the layer is monotonically increasing with all inputs. This assumtion is always true for all layers except possibly the first one. For the first layer, we use indicator_vector to specify which input parameters are monotonic and to specify are they increasingly or decreasingly monotonic: - set 1 for increasingly monotonic parameter, - set -1 for decreasingly monotonic parameter, and - set 0 otherwise.

In our case, the indicator_vector is [1, 0, -1] because $y$ is: - monotonically increasing w.r.t. $x_1$ $\left(\frac{\partial y}{x_1} = 3 {x_1}^2 \geq 0\right)$, and - monotonically decreasing w.r.t. $x_3$ $\left(\frac{\partial y}{x_3} = - e^{-x_2} \leq 0\right)$.

from airt.keras.layers import MonotonicDense


# build a simple model with 3 hidden layer, but this using MonotonicDense layer
mono_model = Sequential()

mono_model.add(Input(shape=(3,)))
indicator_vector = [1, 0, -1]
mono_model.add(MonotonicDense(128, activation="elu", indicator_vector=indicator_vector))
mono_model.add(MonotonicDense(128, activation="elu"))

mono_model.add(Dense(1))
