Overview
Bayesian-Torch is designed to be flexible and enables seamless extension of deterministic deep neural network model to corresponding Bayesian form by simply replacing the deterministic layers with Bayesian layers. It enables user to perform stochastic variational inference in deep neural networks.
Bayesian layers:
-
Variational layers with reparameterized Monte Carlo estimators [Blundell et al. 2015]
LinearReparameterization Conv1dReparameterization, Conv2dReparameterization, Conv3dReparameterization, ConvTranspose1dReparameterization, ConvTranspose2dReparameterization, ConvTranspose3dReparameterization LSTMReparameterization
-
Variational layers with Flipout Monte Carlo estimators [Wen et al. 2018]
LinearFlipout Conv1dFlipout, Conv2dFlipout, Conv3dFlipout, ConvTranspose1dFlipout, ConvTranspose2dFlipout, ConvTranspose3dFlipout LSTMFlipout
Key features:
- dnn_to_bnn(): Seamless conversion of model to be Uncertainty-aware with single line of code. An API to convert deterministic deep neural network (dnn) model of any architecture to Bayesian deep neural network (bnn) model, simplifying the model definition i.e. drop-in replacements of Convolutional, Linear and LSTM layers to corresponding Bayesian layers. This will enable seamless conversion of existing topology of larger models to Bayesian deep neural network models for extending towards uncertainty-aware applications.
- MOPED: Scale Bayesian inference to large scale models by specifying weight priors and variational posteriors in Bayesian neural networks with Empirical Bayes [Krishnan et al. 2020]
- Quantization: Post Training Quantization of Bayesian deep neural network models for INT8 inference with simple API's [Lin et al. 2023]
- AvUC: Accuracy versus Uncertainty Calibration loss [Krishnan and Tickoo 2020]

Usage
There are two ways to build Bayesian deep neural networks using Bayesian-Torch:
- Convert an existing deterministic deep neural network (dnn) model to Bayesian deep neural network (bnn) model with dnn_to_bnn() API
- Define your custom model using the Bayesian layers (Reparameterization or Flipout)
(1) For instance, building Bayesian-ResNet18 from torchvision deterministic ResNet18 model is as simple as:
import torch
import torchvision
from bayesian_torch.models.dnn_to_bnn import dnn_to_bnn, get_kl_loss
const_bnn_prior_parameters = {
"prior_mu": 0.0,
"prior_sigma": 1.0,
"posterior_mu_init": 0.0,
"posterior_rho_init": -3.0,
"type": "Reparameterization", # Flipout or Reparameterization
"moped_enable": False, # True to initialize mu/sigma from the pretrained dnn weights
"moped_delta": 0.5,
}
model = torchvision.models.resnet18()
dnn_to_bnn(model, const_bnn_prior_parameters)
To use MOPED method i.e. setting the prior and initializing variational parameters from a pretrained deterministic model (helps training convergence of larger models):
const_bnn_prior_parameters = {
"prior_mu": 0.0,
"prior_sigma": 1.0,
"posterior_mu_init": 0.0,
"posterior_rho_init": -3.0,
"type": "Reparameterization", # Flipout or Reparameterization
"moped_enable": True, # True to initialize mu/sigma from the pretrained dnn weights
"moped_delta": 0.5,
}
model = torchvision.models.resnet18(pretrained=True)
dnn_to_bnn(model, const_bnn_prior_parameters)
Training snippet:
criterion = torch.nn.CrossEntropyLoss()
optimizer = torch.optim.Adam(model.parameters(), args.learning_rate)
output = model(x_train)
kl = get_kl_loss(model)
ce_loss = criterion(output, y_train)
loss = ce_loss + kl / args.batch_size
loss.backward()
optimizer.step()
Testing snippet:
model.eval()
with torch.no_grad():
output_mc = []
for mc_run in range(args.num_monte_carlo):
logits = model(x_test)
probs = torch.nn.functional.softmax(logits, dim=-1)
output_mc.append(probs)
output = torch.stack(output_mc)
pred_mean = output.mean(dim=0)
y_pred = torch.argmax(pred_mean, axis=-1)
test_acc = (y_pred.data.cpu().numpy() == y_test.data.cpu().numpy()).mean()
Uncertainty Quantification:
from utils.util import predictive_entropy, mutual_information
predictive_uncertainty = predictive_entropy(output.data.cpu().numpy())
model_uncertainty = mutual_information(output.data.cpu().numpy())
(2) For building custom models, we have provided example model implementations using the Bayesian layers.
