Quickstart

Running Pretrained NBDT on Examples

Don't want to download? Try your own images on the web demo.

pip install nbdt, and run our CLI on any image. Below, we run a CIFAR10 model on images from the web, which outputs both the class prediction and all the intermediate decisions. Although the Bear and Zebra classes were not seen at train time, the model still correctly picks Animal over Vehicle for both.

# install our cli
pip install nbdt

# Cat picture - can be a local image path or an image URL
nbdt https://images.pexels.com/photos/126407/pexels-photo-126407.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&dpr=2&w=32
# Prediction: cat // Decisions: animal (Confidence: 99.47%), chordate (Confidence: 99.20%), carnivore (Confidence: 99.42%), cat (Confidence: 99.86%)

# Zebra picture (not in CIFAR10) - picks the closest CIFAR10 animal, which is horse

Loading Pretrained NBDTs in Code

Don't want to download? Try inference on a pre-filled Google Colab Notebook.

pip install nbdt to use our models. We have pretrained models for ResNet18 and WideResNet28x10 for CIFAR10, CIFAR100, and TinyImagenet200. See Models for adding other models. See nbdt-pytorch-image-models for EfficientNet on ImageNet.

Try below script on Google Colab

from nbdt.model import SoftNBDT
from nbdt.models import ResNet18, wrn28_10_cifar10, wrn28_10_cifar100, wrn28_10  # use wrn28_10 for TinyImagenet200

model = wrn28_10_cifar10()
model = SoftNBDT(
  pretrained=True,
  dataset='CIFAR10',
  arch='wrn28_10_cifar10',
  model=model)

Example in ~30 lines: See nbdt/bin/nbdt, which loads the pretrained model, loads an image, and runs inference on the image in ~30 lines. This file is the executable nbdt in the previous section. Try this in a Google Colab Notebook.

Convert Neural Networks to Decision Trees

To convert your neural network into a neural-backed decision tree, perform the following 3 steps:

  1. First, if you haven't already, pip install the nbdt utility:
pip install nbdt
  1. Second, train the original neural network with an NBDT loss. All NBDT losses work by wrapping the original criterion. To demonstrate this, we wrap the original loss criterion with a soft tree supervision loss.
from nbdt.loss import SoftTreeSupLoss
criterion = SoftTreeSupLoss(dataset='CIFAR10', criterion=criterion)  # `criterion` is your original loss function e.g., nn.CrossEntropyLoss
  1. Third, perform inference or validate using an NBDT model. All NBDT models work by wrapping the original model you trained in step 2. To demonstrate this, we wrap the model with a custom NBDT wrapper below. Note this model wrapper is only for inference and validation, not for train time.
from nbdt.model import SoftNBDT
model = SoftNBDT(dataset='CIFAR10', model=model)  # `model` is your original model

Example integration with repository: See nbdt-pytorch-image-models, which applies this 3-step integration to a popular image classification repository pytorch-image-models.

Example integration with a random neural network in 16 lines [click to expand]

You can also include arbitrary image classification neural networks not explicitly supported in this repository. For example, after installing pretrained-models.pytorch using pip, you can instantiate and pass any pretrained model into our NBDT utility functions.

import torch.nn as nn
from nbdt.model import SoftNBDT
from nbdt.loss import SoftTreeSupLoss
from nbdt.hierarchy import generate_hierarchy
import pretrainedmodels

model = pretrainedmodels.__dict__['fbresnet152'](num_classes=1000, pretrained='imagenet')

# 1. generate hierarchy from pretrained model
generate_hierarchy(dataset='Imagenet1000', arch='fbresnet152', model=model)

# 2. Fine-tune model with tree supervision loss
criterion = nn.CrossEntropyLoss()
criterion = SoftTreeSupLoss(dataset='Imagenet1000', hierarchy='induced-fbresnet152', criterion=criterion)

# 3. Run inference using embedded decision rules
model = SoftNBDT(model=model, dataset='Imagenet1000', hierarchy='induced-fbresnet152')

For more information on generating different hierarchies, see Induced Hierarchy.

Want to build and use your own induced hierarchy? [click to expand]

Use the nbdt-hierarchy utility to generate a new induced hierarchy from a pretrained model.

nbdt-hierarchy --arch=efficientnet_b0 --dataset=Imagenet1000

Then, pass the hierarchy name to the loss and models. You may alternatively pass the fully-qualified path_graph path.

from nbdt.loss import SoftTreeSupLoss
from nbdt.model import SoftNBDT

criterion = SoftTreeSupLoss(dataset='Imagenet1000', criterion=criterion, hierarchy='induced-efficientnet_b0')
model = SoftNBDT(dataset='Imagenet1000', model=model, hierarchy='induced-efficientnet_b0')

For more information on generating different hierarchies, see Induced Hierarchy.

Training and Evaluation

To reproduce experimental results, clone the repository, install all requirements, and run our bash script.

git clone [email protected]:alvinwan/neural-backed-decision-trees.git  # or http addr if you don't have private-public github key setup
cd neural-backed-decision-trees
python setup.py develop # install all requirements
bash scripts/gen_train_eval_wideresnet.sh # reproduce paper core CIFAR10, CIFAR100, and TinyImagenet200 results

We (1) generate the hierarchy and (2) train the neural network with a tree supervision loss. Then, we (3) run inference by featurizing images using the network backbone and running embedded decision rules. Notes:

  • See below sections for details on visualizations, reproducing ablation studies, and different configurations (e.g., different hierarchies).
  • To reproduce our ImageNet results, see examples/imagenet for ResNet and nbdt-pytorch-image-models for EfficientNet.
  • For all scripts, you can use any torchvision model or any pytorchcv model, as we directly support both model zoos. Customization for each step is explained below.

1. Generate Hierarchy

Run the following to generate and test induced hierarchies for CIFAR10 based off of the WideResNet model.

nbdt-hierarchy --arch=wrn28_10_cifar10 --dataset=CIFAR10
See how it works and how to configure. [click to expand]

induced_structure

The script loads the pretrained model (Step A), populates the leaves of the tree with fully-connected layer weights (Step B) and performs hierarchical agglomerative clustering (Step C). Note that the above command can be rerun with different architectures, different datasets, or random neural network checkpoints to produce different hierarchies.

# different architecture: ResNet18
nbdt-hierarchy --arch=ResNet18 --dataset=CIFAR10

# different dataset: ImageNet
nbdt-hierarchy --arch=efficientnet_b7 --dataset=Imagenet1000

# arbitrary checkpoint
wget https://download.pytorch.org/models/resnet18-5c106cde.pth -O resnet18.pth
nbdt-hierarchy --checkpoint=resnet18.pth --dataset=Imagenet1000

You can also run the hierarchy generation from source directly, without using the command-line tool, by passing in a pretrained model.

from nbdt.hierarchy import generate_hierarchy
from nbdt.models import wrn28_10_cifar10

model = wrn28_10_cifar10(pretrained=True)
generate_hierarchy(dataset='Imagenet1000', arch='wrn28_10_cifar10', model=model)
See example visualization. [click to expand]

By default, the generation script outputs the HTML file containing a d3 visualization. All visualizations are stored in out/. We will generate another visualization with larger font size and includes wordnet IDs where available.

nbdt-hierarchy --vis-sublabels --vis-zoom=1.25 --dataset=CIFAR10 --arch=wrn28_10_cifar10

The above script's output will end with the following.

==> Reading from ./nbdt/hierarchies/CIFAR10/graph-induced-wrn28_10_cifar10.json
Found just 1 root.
==> Wrote HTML to out/induced-wrn28_10_cifar10-tree.html

Open up out/induced-wrn28_10_cifar10-tree.html in your browser to view the d3 tree visualization.

Generate WordNet hierarchy and see how it works. [click to expand]

Run the following to generate and test WordNet hierarchies for CIFAR10, CIFAR100, and TinyImagenet200. The script also downloads the NLTK WordNet corpus.

bash scripts/generate_hierarchies_wordnet.sh

The below just explains the above generate_hierarchies_wordnet.sh, using CIFAR10. You do not need to run the following after running the above bash script.

# Generate mapping from classes to WNID. This is required for CIFAR10 and CIFAR100.
nbdt-wnids --dataset=CIFAR10

# Generate hierarchy, using the WNIDs. This is required for all datasets: CIFAR10, CIFAR100, TinyImagenet200
nbdt-hierarchy --method=wordnet --dataset=CIFAR10
See example WordNet visualization. [click to expand]

We can generate a visualization with a slightly improved zoom and with wordnet IDs. By default, the script builds the Wordnet hierarchy for CIFAR10.

nbdt-hierarchy --method=wordnet --vis-zoom=1.25 --vis-sublabels

Generate random hierarchy. [click to expand]

Use --method=random to randomly generate a binary-ish hierarchy. Optionally, use the --seed (--seed=-1 to not shuffle leaves) and --branching-factor flags. When debugging, we set branching factor to the number of classes. For example, the sanity check hierarchy for CIFAR10 is

nbdt-hierarchy --seed=-1 --branching-factor=10 --dataset=CIFAR10

2. Tree Supervision Loss

In the below training commands, we uniformly use --path-resume=<path/to/checkpoint> --lr=0.01 to fine-tune instead of training from scratch. Our results using a recently state-of-the-art pretrained checkpoint (WideResNet) were fine-tuned. Run the following to fine-tune WideResNet with soft tree supervision loss on CIFAR10.

python main.py --lr=0.01 --dataset=CIFAR10 --arch=wrn28_10_cifar10 --hierarchy=induced-wrn28_10_cifar10 --pretrained --loss=SoftTreeSupLoss
See how it works and how to configure. [click to expand]

tree_supervision_loss

The tree supervision loss features two variants: a hard version and a soft version. Simply change the loss to HardTreeSupLoss or SoftTreeSupLoss, depending on the one you want.

# fine-tune the wrn pretrained checkpoint on CIFAR10 with hard tree supervision loss
python main.py --lr=0.01 --dataset=CIFAR10 --arch=wrn28_10_cifar10 --hierarchy=induced-wrn28_10_cifar10 --pretrained --loss=HardTreeSupLoss

# fine-tune the wrn pretrained checkpoint on CIFAR10 with soft tree supervision loss
python main.py --lr=0.01 --dataset=CIFAR10 --arch=wrn28_10_cifar10 --hierarchy=induced-wrn28_10_cifar10 --pretrained --loss=SoftTreeSupLoss

To train from scratch, use --lr=0.1 and do not pass the --path-resume or --pretrained flags. We fine-tune WideResnet on CIFAR10, CIFAR100, but where the baseline neural network accuracy is reproducible, we train from scratch.

3. Inference

Like with the tree supervision loss variants, there are two inference variants: one is hard and one is soft. Below, we run soft inference on the model we just trained with the soft loss.

Run the following bash script to obtain these numbers.

python main.py --dataset=CIFAR10 --arch=wrn28_10_cifar10 --hierarchy=induced-wrn28_10_cifar10 --loss=SoftTreeSupLoss --eval --resume --analysis=SoftEmbeddedDecisionRules
See how it works and how to configure. [click to expand]

inference_modes

Note the following commands are nearly identical to the corresponding train commands -- we drop the lr, pretrained flags and add resume, eval, and the analysis type (hard or soft inference). The best results in our paper, oddly enough, were obtained by running hard and soft inference both on the neural network supervised by a soft tree supervision loss. This is reflected in the commands below.

# running soft inference on soft-supervised model
python main.py --dataset=CIFAR10 --arch=wrn28_10_cifar10 --hierarchy=induced-wrn28_10_cifar10 --loss=SoftTreeSupLoss --eval --resume --analysis=SoftEmbeddedDecisionRules

# running hard inference on soft-supervised model

Results

We compare against all previous decision-tree-based methods that report on CIFAR10, CIFAR100, and/or ImageNet; we use numbers reported in the original papers (except DNDF, which did not have CIFAR or ImageNet top-1 scores):

  • Deep Neural Decision Forest (DNDF, updated with ResNet18)
  • Explainable Observer-Classifier (XOC)
  • Deep ConvolutionalDecision Jungle (DCDJ)
  • Network of Experts (NofE)
  • Deep Decision Network (DDN)
  • Adaptive Neural Trees (ANT)
  • Oblique Decision Trees (ODT)
  • Classic Decision Trees
CIFAR10 CIFAR100 TinyImagenet200 ImageNet
NBDT (Ours) 97.55% 82.97% 67.72% 76.60%
Best Pre-NBDT Acc 94.32% 76.24% 44.56% 61.29%
Best Pre-NBDT Method DNDF NofE DNDF NofE
Our improvement 3.23% 6.73% 23.16% 15.31%

Our pretrained checkpoints (CIFAR10, CIFAR100, and TinyImagenet200) may deviate from these numbers by 0.1-0.2%, as we retrained all models for public release.

Customize Repository for Your Application

As discussed above, you can use the nbdt python library to integrate NBDT training into any existing training pipeline, like ClassyVision (ClassyVision + NBDT Imagenet example). However, if you wish to use the barebones training utilities here, refer to the following sections for adding custom models and datasets.

If you have not already, start by cloning the repository and installing all requirements. As a sample, we've included copies of the WideResNet bash script but for ResNet18.

git clone [email protected]:alvinwan/neural-backed-decision-trees.git  # or http addr if you don't have private-public github key setup
cd neural-backed-decision-trees
python setup.py develop
bash scripts/gen_train_eval_resnet.sh

For any models that have pretrained checkpoints for the datasets of interest (e.g., CIFAR10, CIFAR100, and ImageNet models from pytorchcv or ImageNet models from torchvision), modify scripts/gen_train_eval_pretrained.sh; it suffices to change the model name. For all models that do not have pretrained checkpoint for the dataset of interest, modify scripts/gen_train_eval_nopretrained.sh.

Models

Without any modifications to main.py, you can replace ResNet18 with your favorite network: Pass any torchvision.models model or any pytorchcv model to --arch, as we directly support both model zoos. Note that the former only supports models pretrained on ImageNet. The latter supports models pretrained on CIFAR10, CIFAR100, andd ImageNet; for each dataset, the corresponding model name includes the dataset e.g., wrn28_10_cifar10. However, neither supports models pretrained on TinyImagenet.

To add a new model from scratch:

  1. Create a new file containing your network, such as ./nbdt/models/yournet.py. This file should contain an __all__ only exposing functions that return a model. These functions should accept pretrained: bool and progress: bool, then forward all other keyword arguments to the model constructor.
  2. Expose your new file via ./nbdt/models/__init__.py: from .yournet import *.
  3. Train the original neural network on the target dataset. e.g., python main.py --arch=yournet18.

Dataset

Without any modifications to main.py, you can use any image classification dataset found at torchvision.datasets by passing it to --dataset. To add a new dataset from scratch:

  1. Create a new file containing your dataset, such as ./nbdt/data/yourdata.py. Say the data class is YourData10. Like before, only expose the dataset class via __all__. This dataset class should support a .classes attribute which returns a list of human-readable class names.
  2. Expose your new file via './nbdt/data/__init__.py': from .yourdata import *.
  3. Modify nbdt.utils.DATASETS to include the name of your dataset, which is YourData10 in this example.
  4. Also in nbdt/utils.py, modify DATASET_TO_NUM_CLASSES and DATASET_TO_CLASSES to include your new dataset.
  5. (Optional) Create a text file with wordnet IDs in ./nbdt/wnids/{dataset}.txt. This list should be in the same order that your dataset's .classes is. You may optionally use the utility nbdt-wnids to generate wnids (see note below)
  6. Train the original neural network on the target dataset. e.g., python main.py --dataset=YourData10

*Note: You may optionally use the utility nbdt-wnids to generate wnids:

nbdt-wnids --dataset=YourData10

, where YourData is your dataset name. If a provided class name from YourData.classes does not exist in the WordNet corpus, the script will generate a fake wnid. This does not affect training but subsequent analysis scripts will be unable to provide WordNet-imputed node meanings.

Tests

To run tests, use the following command

pytest nbdt tests

  • Error when applying SoftTreeSupLoss to custom model/dataset

    Error when applying SoftTreeSupLoss to custom model/dataset

    Hey, Thanks for sharing your code. I have a pretrained pytorch(Fastai) model on my custom dataset and when i am trying to run the below code on my dataset. I get an assertion error.

    The dataset I have is loaded using a dataloader having 3 classes from nbdt.loss import SoftTreeSupLoss criterion = nn.CrossEntropyLoss() criterion = SoftTreeSupLoss(dataset='CIFAR10', criterion=criterion) -- originial criterion = SoftTreeSupLoss(dataset=data, criterion=criterion) -- custom

    Also, do I have to train the whole model again or can just pass this new loss function to that model and get the inference?

    Any help would be really appreciated :)

  • Extending NBDT to the NLP domain

    Extending NBDT to the NLP domain

    Hello @alvinwan and team!

    First off, thank you for the awsome work. As per this repo and your paper, I noticed that the applications of the NBDT technique have been limited to images. Do you foresee this technique being used in other domains such as NLP?

    I am interested in working on an interpretable decision-tree learning framework which can come close to DNNs' performance in NLP, and am drawing some inspiration from your work. Would be great to get your thoughts on this :)

  • [Question][Bug?] Why are you using FC layer outputs instead of Neural Backbone outputs during inference?

    [Question][Bug?] Why are you using FC layer outputs instead of Neural Backbone outputs during inference?

    According to the paper at 3.1 Inference with Embedded Decision Rules

    First, our NBDT approach featurizes each sample using the neural network backbone; the backbone consists of all neural network layers before the final fully-connected layer.

    So, It means the sample is run on the NN architecture excluding the final fully-connected layer(?)

    If so, Why are you including the final fully-connected layer in here before passing x to self.rules.forward_with_decisions? https://github.com/alvinwan/neural-backed-decision-trees/blob/7ef5fe5034281aeb0d10786495d5556e99b98af4/nbdt/model.py#L323-L324

    Can you please explain?

  • "RuntimeError: CUDA out of memory" when training with soft tree supervision loss

    Hello,

    I am trying to integrate the rare planes dataset with this code repository. I followed the steps for a custom dataset in the README and I was able to get one of the scripts running (partially). I can run 'step 0' and 'step 1' of the script gen_train_eval_nopretrained.sh, however, when I run 'step 2' I get a CUDA out of memory error. Any ideas on why this would happen?

    Note: I have tried lowering the batch size but that does not seem to affect the error message.

    For reference here is the script I am running:

    # Want to train with wordnet hierarchy? Just set '--hierarchy=wordnet' below.
# This script is for networks that do NOT come with a pretrained checkpoint provided either by a model zoo or by the NBDT utility itself.

model="ResNet18"
dataset=RarePlanes
weight=1
batch_size=4

# 0. train the baseline neural network
python main.py --dataset=${dataset} --arch=${model} --batch-size=${batch_size}

# 1. generate hieararchy -- for models without a pretrained checkpoint, use 'checkpoint'
nbdt-hierarchy --dataset=${dataset} --checkpoint=./checkpoint/ckpt-${dataset}-${model}.pth

# 2. train with soft tree supervision loss -- for models without a pretrained checkpoint, use 'path-resume' OR just train from scratch, without 'path-resume'
# python main.py --lr=0.01 --dataset=${dataset} --model=${model} --hierarchy=induced-${model} --path-resume=./checkpoint/ckpt-${dataset}-${model}.pth --loss=SoftTreeSupLoss --tree-supervision-weight=${weight}  # fine-tuning
python main.py --dataset=${dataset} --arch=${model} --hierarchy=induced-${model} --loss=SoftTreeSupLoss --tree-supervision-weight=${weight}  # training from scratch

# 3. evaluate with soft then hard inference
for analysis in SoftEmbeddedDecisionRules HardEmbeddedDecisionRules; do
  python main.py --dataset=${dataset} --arch=${model} --hierarchy=induced-${model} --loss=SoftTreeSupLoss --eval --resume --analysis=${analysis} --tree-supervision-weight=${weight}
done

    And here is the error I get on line 17:

    I don't understand why I would be able to run step 0 with a large batch size but I can't run step 2 even with a very small batch size. I was thinking the networks were largely the same (except for the extra output nodes in step 2 due to the hierarchy and the hierarchical loss used to train). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Getting the intermediate decisions on Colab

    Getting the intermediate decisions on Colab

    When I call model.forward_with_decisions to get the intermediate decisions on Colab, we get a list of 'node': <nbdt.data.custom.Node object at 0x7f2318a35a90> objects. How could I get access to the information within the node? And how could I generate a visualization of a decision tree based on this result?

    Hi NBDT,

    When I ran the code below....

    from nbdt.model import SoftNBDT from nbdt.models import ResNet18, wrn28_10_cifar10, wrn28_10_cifar100, wrn28_10 # use wrn28_10 for TinyImagenet200

    model = wrn28_10_cifar10() model = SoftNBDT( pretrained=True, dataset='CIFAR10', arch='wrn28_10_cifar10', model=model)

    I received the following error

  • Does NBDTs support jit?

    Does NBDTs support jit?

    Hi,

    Great project and article, congratulations.

    I'm wondering if, once the training is finished, the final NBDT can be fully exported as a JIT file?

    It seems that everything is written in pytorch and inference can be done in a single forward pass so it should be fine but I'm still a bit worried about the tree part and the self.rules.forward_with_decisions(x). Have you ever tried to export one of your models as JIT? Does it work as is?

    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Does it work better than original nerual network in binary classification

    I mean apply NBDT with soft loss.., you know the inner node weight can't be update with the soft loss in binary classfication due to the special inner probability computing method.

    How to train with new dataset

    Hi, I'm trying to use gen_train_eval_nopretrained.sh to train with a new dataset I implemented. However, in main.py there is this line of code tree = Tree.create_from_args(args, classes=trainset.classes) the error I got is FileNotFound at nbdt/hierarchies/mydataset/graph-induced.json and it seems that this line of code requires generated hierarchy? But I can only generate hierarchy after I've trained the model. So I'm a bit confused on what to do.
