Overview

clstm

CLSTM is an implementation of the LSTM recurrent neural network model in C++, using the Eigen library for numerical computations.

Status and scope

CLSTM is mainly in maintenance mode now. It was created at a time when there weren't a lot of good LSTM implementations around, but several good options have become available over the last year. Nevertheless, if you need a small library for text line recognition with few dependencies, CLSTM is still a good option.

Installation using Docker

You can train and run clstm without installation to the local machine using the docker image, which is based on Ubuntu 16.04. This is the best option for running clstm on a Windows host.

You can either run the last version of the clstm image from Docker Hub or build the Docker image from the repo (see ./docker/Dockerfile).

The command line syntax differs from a native installation:

docker run --rm -it -e [VARIABLES...] kbai/clstm BINARY [ARGS...]

is equivalent to

[VARIABLES...] BINARY [ARGS...]

For example:

docker run --rm -it -e ntrain=1000 kbai/clstm clstmocrtrain traininglist.txt

is equivalent to

ntrain=1000 clstmocrtrain traininglist.txt

Installation from source

Prerequisites

scons, swig, Eigen
protocol buffer library and compiler
libpng
Optional: HDF5, ZMQ, Python

# Ubuntu 15.04, 16.04 / Debian 8, 9
sudo apt-get install scons libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libpng-dev libeigen3-dev swig

# Ubuntu 14.04:
sudo apt-get install scons libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libpng-dev swig

The Debian repositories jessie-backports and stretch include sufficiently new libeigen3-dev packages.

It is also possible to download Eigen with Tensor support (> v3.3-beta1) and copy the header files to an include path:

# with wget
wget 'https://github.com/RLovelett/eigen/archive/3.3-rc1.tar.gz'
tar xf 3.3-rc1.tar.gz
rm -f /usr/local/include/eigen3
mv eigen-3.3-rc1 /usr/local/include/eigen3
# or with git:
sudo git clone --depth 1 --single-branch --branch 3.3-rc1 \
  "https://github.com/RLovelett/eigen" /usr/local/include/eigen3

To use the visual debugging methods, additionally:

# Ubuntu 15.04:
sudo apt-get install libzmq3-dev libzmq3 libzmqpp-dev libzmqpp3 libpng12-dev

For HDF5, additionally:

# Ubuntu 15.04:
sudo apt-get install hdf5-helpers libhdf5-8 libhdf5-cpp-8 libhdf5-dev python-h5py

# Ubuntu 14.04:
sudo apt-get install hdf5-helpers libhdf5-7 libhdf5-dev python-h5py

Building

To build a standalone C library, run

scons
sudo scons install

There are a bunch of options:

debug=1 build with debugging options, no optimization
display=1 build with display support for debugging (requires ZMQ, Python)
prefix=... install under a different prefix (untested)
eigen=... where to look for Eigen include files (should contain Eigen/Eigen)
openmp=... build with multi-processing support. Set the OMP_NUM_THREADS environment variable to the number of threads for Eigen to use.
hdf5lib=hdf5 what HDF5 library to use; enables HDF5 command line programs (may need hdf5_serial in some environments)

Running the tests

After building the executables, you can run two simple test runs as follows:

run-cmu will train an English-to-IPA LSTM
run-uw3-500 will download a small OCR training/test set and train an OCR LSTM

There is a full set of tests in the current version of clstm; just run them with:

./run-tests

This will check:

gradient checkers for layers and compute steps
training a simple model through the C++ API
training a simple model through the Python API
checking the command line training tools, including loading and saving

Python bindings

To build the Python extension, run

python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install

(this is currently broken)

Documentation / Examples

You can find some documentation and examples in the form of iPython notebooks in the misc directory (these are version 3 notebooks and won't open in older versions).

You can view these notebooks online here: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/tmbdev/clstm/tree/master/misc/

C++ API

The clstm library operates on the Sequence type as its fundamental data type, representing variable length sequences of fixed length vectors. The underlying Sequence type is a rank 4 tensor with accessors for individual rank-2 tensors at different time steps.

Networks are built from objects implementing the INetwork interface. The INetwork interface contains:

struct INetwork {
    Sequence inputs, d_inputs;      // input sequence, input deltas
    Sequence outputs, d_outputs;    // output sequence, output deltas
    void forward();                 // propagate inputs to outputs
    void backward();                // propagate d_outputs to d_inputs
    void update();                  // update weights from the last backward() step
    void setLearningRate(Float,Float); // set learning rates
    ...
};

Network structures can be hierarchical and there are some network implementations whose purpose it is to combine other networks into more complex structures.

struct INetwork {
    ...
    vector<shared_ptr<INetwork>> sub;
    void add(shared_ptr<INetwork> net);
    ...
};

At its lowest level, layers are created by:

create an instance of the layer with make_layer
set any parameters (including ninput and noutput) as attributes
add any sublayers to the sub vector
call initialize()

There are three different functions for constructing layers and networks:

make_layer(kind) looks up the constructor and gives you an uninitialized layer
layer(kind,ninput,noutput,args,sub) performs all initialization steps in sequence
make_net(kind,args) initializes a whole collection of layers at once
make_net_init(kind,params) is like make_net, but parameters are given in string form

The layer(kind,ninput,noutput,args,sub) function will perform these steps in sequence.

Layers and networks are usually passed around as shared_ptr<INetwork>; there is a typedef of this calling it Network.

This can be used to construct network architectures in C++ pretty easily. For example, the following creates a network that stacks a softmax output layer on top of a standard LSTM layer:

Network net = layer("Stacked", ninput, noutput, {}, {
    layer("LSTM", ninput, nhidden,{},{}),
    layer("SoftmaxLayer", nhidden, noutput,{},{})
});

Note that you need to make sure that the number of input and output units are consistent between layers.

In addition to these basic functions, there is also a small implementation of CTC alignment.

The C++ code roughly follows the lstm.py implementation from the Python version of OCRopus. Gradients have been verified for the core LSTM implementation, although there may be still be bugs in other parts of the code.

There is also a small multidimensional array class in multidim.h; that isn't used in the core LSTM implementation, but it is used in debugging and testing code, for plotting, and for HDF5 input/output. Unlike Eigen, it uses standard C/C++ row major element order, as libraries like HDF5 expect. (NB: This will be replaced with Eigen::Tensor.)

LSTM models are stored in protocol buffer format (clstm.proto), although adding new formats is easy. There is an older HDF5-based storage format.

Python API

The clstm.i file implements a simple Python interface to clstm, plus a wrapper that makes an INetwork mostly a replacement for the lstm.py implementation from ocropy.

Command Line Drivers

There are several command line drivers:

clstmfiltertrain training-data test-data learns text filters;
- input files consiste of lines of the form "inputoutput"
clstmfilter applies learned text filters
clstmocrtrain training-images test-images learns OCR (or image-to-text) transformations;
- input files are lists of text line images; the corresponding UTF-8 ground truth is expected in the corresponding .gt.txt file
clstmocr applies learned OCR models

In addition, you get the following HDF5-based commands:

clstmseq learns sequence-to-sequence mappings
clstmctc learns sequence-to-string mappings using CTC alignment
clstmtext learns string-to-string transformations

Note that most parameters are passed through the environment:

lrate=3e-5 clstmctc uw3-dew.h5

See the notebooks in the misc/ subdirectory for documentation on the parameters and examples of usage.

(You can find all parameters via grep 'get.env' *.cc.)

Comments

Other language trial report

With 500-character subset of Japanese Kanji, clstm works fine. (hidden_nodes = 100, MacBook, gcc48 from homebrew) Your kid reads Japanese brilliantly.

I am trying 2492-char subset. it seems to take several weeks (hidden=200, this time) (NO nhidden = 200 seems to be hopeless, he/she seems to learn one char by forgetting another)

Now trying 3700 chars( little bigger tesseract jp-dataset ) with nhidden = 800 and nhidden =1200. Unless my PC broke, I will see the result next spring.

Training on top of an existing model

Hi there, I am trying to train a new clstm model containing +1000 lines, the training process would take days. My technique would be to train a couple of hours a day, and continue training the next day, as such. I created an arabic-8000.clstm model for testing, and added to the script: load=arabic-8000.clstm start=8000

But the problem is that clstmocrtrain starts from 0 all over again. Waiting for your reply

How to make predictions using python code

Hi, taking this example as a reference I wrote the following code:

import clstm
import cv2
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import os
from scipy.ndimage import filters

def decode2(pred, codec, threshold = .5):
    eps = filters.gaussian_filter(pred[:,0,0],2,mode='nearest')
    loc = (np.roll(eps,-1)>eps) & (np.roll(eps,1)>eps) & (np.eps<threshold)
    classes = np.argmax(pred,axis=1)[:,0]
    codes = classes[loc]
    chars = [chr(codec[c]) for c in codes]
    return "".join(chars)    

def decode1(pred, codec):
    classes = np.argmax(pred,axis=1)[:,0]
    print(classes)
    codes = classes[(classes!=0) & (np.roll(classes,1)==0)]
    #[print(int(c)) for c in codes]
    chars = [codec.decode(int(c)) for c in codes]
    return "".join(chars)

img_name="new-22_mcrop8.png"

img=cv2.imread(img_name, 0)
h=img.shape[0]
img = img.T.reshape(img.shape[0]*img.shape[1])
print("img.shape", img.shape)

net = clstm.load_net("model-180000.clstm")
print(clstm.network_info(net))

noutput=net.codec.size()
ninput=h
print("in, out: ",ninput,noutput)

#plt.imshow(img.reshape(h,-1))
#plt.show()

print("img.shape:", img.shape)
xs = np.array(img.reshape(-1,h,1),'f')

#plt.imshow(xs.reshape(-1,h).T,cmap=plt.cm.gray)
#plt.show()

print("xs.shape", xs.shape)
net.inputs.aset(xs)
net.forward()
pred = net.outputs.array()
print("pred.shape", pred.shape)

#plt.imshow(pred.reshape(-1,noutput).T, interpolation='none')
#plt.show()

codec = [net.codec.decode(i) for i in range(net.codec.size())]
print("codec: ", codec)

print(decode1(pred, net.codec))

This is the image:

new-22_mcrop8

and the expected output is obviously TRENTO. This is the model:

model-180000.clstm.zip

The model was trained with clstmocrtrain and works perfectly when I use clstmocr.

I had a look at the c++ code and I can see this:

raw() = -raw() + Float(1.0);
[...]
normalizer->normalize(image, raw);

before the forward call. Maybe this is the problem. Can I call these from python(I doubt)? Do I have to rewrite these in python? Is there a simpler way that I missed, like a predict() method? Should I have a look at Kraken?

Thanks for any suggestion.

question: clstmocrtrain on GPU

Great thanks for all superb work! Trying to run clstmocrtrain on CUDA, doesnt' seem to work. I've compiled everything with "scons -j7 gpu=1" (I've 8 cores). No errors were produced (well after all it took me a bit of time to get here, but compilation worked).

Now running gpu=1 clstmocrtrain + rest of parameters seems to occupy CPU only and nothing is shown on GPU.

Question is how to validate if all is prepared correctly and why clstmocrtrain is not running on GPU? Should there be a recommendation to use another GPU enabled tool to generate valid LSTM for Ocropy, I'm very open to that. I will try Kraken, but wanted to first try clstmocrtrain.

Inaccurate training

When I prepare test data like you do for ocropy. I run training with the command save_name=models/model test_every=1001 save_every=1000 nhidden=1 display_every=1 report_every=1 clstmocrtrain trainfiles.txt testfiles.txt But results are inaccurate even after iteration 160000. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

How to optimally prepare the data
Hi, I'd like to know what is the recommended/optimal data preparation for training (and recognition, if different).

For example:

is it better to use a grayscale image or a binary one?

is it better to leave some white margins (left/right, top/bottom) or trim tight to the text(*)? In the first case, the "target_height" should include the margin or not?

does it perform some kind or text straightening/dewarping or should I do it?

any other things to consider?

Thanks.

(*) I'm asking this because when I started to using it, it was common for the very first letter to be discarded and adding some white margin seemed to fix it. But I was using very little data and maybe it was just a coincidence. The uw3 samples also have a small border.
