cnnTrain.m

%% Convolution Neural Network Exercise

%  Instructions
%  ------------
% 
%  This file contains code that helps you get started in building a single.
%  layer convolutional nerual network. In this exercise, you will only
%  need to modify cnnCost.m and cnnminFuncSGD.m. You will not need to 
%  modify this file.

%%======================================================================
%% STEP 0: Initialize Parameters and Load Data
%  Here we initialize some parameters used for the exercise.

imageDim = 28;
numClasses = 62;  % Number of classes (MNIST images fall into 10 classes)
filterDim = 5;    % Filter size for conv layer
numFilters = 50;   % Number of filters for conv layer
poolDim = 2;      % Pooling dimension, (should divide imageDim-filterDim+1)

%Load images
%importC74k;

% Initialize Parameters
theta = cnnInitParams(imageDim,filterDim,numFilters,poolDim,numClasses);

%%======================================================================
%% STEP 1: Implement convNet Objective
%  Implement the function cnnCost.m.

%%======================================================================
%% STEP 2: Gradient Check
%  Use the file computeNumericalGradient.m to check the gradient
%  calculation for your cnnCost.m function.  You may need to add the
%  appropriate path or copy the file to this directory.

DEBUG=false;  % set this to true to check gradient
if DEBUG
    % To speed up gradient checking, we will use a reduced network and
    % a debugging data set
    db_numFilters = 2;
    db_filterDim = 9;
    db_poolDim = 5;
    db_images = images(:,:,1:10);
    db_labels = labels(1:10);
    db_theta = cnnInitParams(imageDim,db_filterDim,db_numFilters,...
                db_poolDim,numClasses);
    
    [cost grad] = cnnCost(db_theta,db_images,db_labels,numClasses,...
                                db_filterDim,db_numFilters,db_poolDim);
    

    % Check gradients
    numGrad = computeNumericalGradient( @(x) cnnCost(x,db_images,...
                                db_labels,numClasses,db_filterDim,...
                                db_numFilters,db_poolDim), db_theta);
 
    % Use this to visually compare the gradients side by side
    disp([numGrad grad]);
    
    diff = norm(numGrad-grad)/norm(numGrad+grad);
    % Should be small. In our implementation, these values are usually 
    % less than 1e-9.
    disp(diff); 
 
    assert(diff < 1e-9,...
        'Difference too large. Check your gradient computation again');
    
end;

%%======================================================================
%% STEP 3: Learn Parameters
%  Implement minFuncSGD.m, then train the model.

options.epochs = 3;
options.minibatch = 256;
options.alpha = 1e-1;
options.momentum = .95;

opttheta = minFuncSGD(@(x,y,z) cnnCost(x,y,z,numClasses,filterDim,...
                     numFilters,poolDim),theta,images,labels,testImages, testLabels, numClasses, filterDim, numFilters, poolDim,options);
%%======================================================================
%% STEP 4: Test
%  Test the performance of the trained model using the MNIST test set. Your
%  accuracy should be above 97% after 3 epochs of training

[~,cost,preds]=cnnCost(opttheta,testImages,testLabels,numClasses,...
                filterDim,numFilters,poolDim,true);

acc = (sum(preds==testLabels)/length(preds))*100;

% Accuracy should be around 97.4% after 3 epochs
fprintf('Accuracy is %f percent\n',acc);
