2. Testing and Debugging with Keras

Keras is a high-level API for building and training deep learning models with TensorFlow. It provides a simple and intuitive way to define and train your models, without having to deal with the low-level details of TensorFlow. However, this does not mean that you can avoid testing and debugging your models with Keras. In fact, testing and debugging are essential steps in any machine learning project, as they help you ensure that your models are working correctly, and that you are getting the best results possible.

In this section, you will learn how to test and debug your models with Keras, using some of the built-in features and tools that Keras provides. You will learn how to:

  • Use callbacks and checkpoints to monitor and save your model’s progress during training, and resume training from a saved state.
  • Handle errors and exceptions that may occur during model building or training, and use the Keras documentation and community resources to find solutions.

By the end of this section, you will have a better understanding of how to test and debug your models with Keras, and how to use the Keras API effectively and efficiently.

2.1. Using Callbacks and Checkpoints

One of the most useful features of Keras is the ability to use callbacks and checkpoints during model training. Callbacks are functions that are executed at certain points of the training process, such as at the start or end of an epoch, or after a batch of data is processed. Checkpoints are files that store the state of your model at a certain point of the training process, such as the weights, the optimizer, and the metrics.

Using callbacks and checkpoints can help you test and debug your models in several ways, such as:

  • Monitoring your model’s progress and performance during training, and logging the results to a file or a dashboard.
  • Saving your model’s state periodically, and restoring it in case of interruptions or crashes.
  • Stopping your model’s training early if it reaches a certain threshold of performance or improvement, and avoiding overfitting or wasting resources.
  • Adjusting your model’s learning rate or other hyperparameters dynamically, and finding the optimal values for your problem.

In this section, you will learn how to use some of the most common and useful callbacks and checkpoints that Keras provides, and how to customize them for your needs. You will also learn how to create your own callbacks and checkpoints, and how to use them with different types of models and data.

2.2. Handling Errors and Exceptions

Even if you use callbacks and checkpoints to test and debug your models with Keras, you may still encounter errors and exceptions that prevent your model from building or training properly. Errors and exceptions are common in any programming project, and they can be caused by various reasons, such as syntax errors, logic errors, invalid inputs, incompatible versions, or unexpected situations.

Handling errors and exceptions can be challenging and frustrating, but it is also an important skill for any machine learning practitioner. In this section, you will learn how to handle errors and exceptions with Keras, using some of the best practices and tools that can help you find and fix the root causes of the problems. You will learn how to:

  • Read and understand the error messages and stack traces that Keras provides, and identify the type and location of the error.
  • Use the Python debugger (pdb) to inspect and manipulate your code and variables at the point of the error, and execute commands to test your hypotheses.
  • Use the Keras documentation and community resources, such as Stack Overflow, GitHub issues, and forums, to search for solutions and examples, and ask for help if needed.

By the end of this section, you will have a better understanding of how to handle errors and exceptions with Keras, and how to use the Python and Keras tools effectively and efficiently.

3. Testing and Debugging with TensorFlow Debugger

TensorFlow Debugger (tfdbg) is a tool that allows you to inspect and manipulate your TensorFlow graphs and tensors at runtime, and debug common issues such as NaN values, shape mismatches, and memory leaks. tfdbg can help you test and debug your models with TensorFlow, especially if you are using low-level TensorFlow APIs or custom TensorFlow operations.
