I want to implement gradient descent with numpy for linear regression but I have some error in this code:
import numpy as np
# Code Example
rng = np.random.RandomState(10)
X = 10*rng.rand(1000, 5) # feature matrix
y = 0.9 + np.dot(X, [2.2, 4, -4, 1, 2]) # target vector
# GD implementation for linear regression
def GD(X, y, eta=0.1, n_iter=20):
theta = np.zeros((X.shape[0], X.shape[1]))
for i in range(n_iter):
grad = 2 * np.mean((np.dot(theta.T, X) - y) * X)
theta = theta - eta * grad
return theta
# SGD implementation for linear regression
def SGD(X, y, eta=0.1, n_iter=20):
theta = np.zeros(1, X.shape[1])
for i in range(n_iter):
for j in range(X.shape[0]):
grad = 2 * np.mean((np.dot(theta.T, X[j,:]) - y[j]) * X[j,:])
theta = theta - eta * grad
return theta
# MSE loss for linear regression with numpy
def MSE(X, y, theta):
return np.mean((X.dot(theta.T) - y)**2)
# linear regression with GD and MSE with numpy
theta_gd = GD(X, y)
theta_sgd = SGD(X, y)
print('MSE with GD: ', MSE(X, y, theta_gd))
print('MSE with SGD: ', MSE(X, y, theta_sgd))
The error is
grad = 2 * np.mean((np.dot(theta.T, X) - y) * X)
ValueError: operands could not be broadcast together with shapes (5,5) (1000,)
and I can't solve it.
Minor changes in your code that resolve dimensionality issues during matrix multiplication make the code run successfully. In particular, note that a linear regression on a design matrix X of dimension Nxk has a parameter vector theta of size k.
In addition, I'd suggest some changes in SGD() that make it a proper stochastic gradient descent. Namely, evaluating the gradient over random subsets of the data realized as realized by randomly partitioning the index set of the train data with np.random.shuffle() and looping through it. The batch_size determines the size of each subset after which the parameter estimate is updated. The argument seed ensures reproducibility.
# GD implementation for linear regression
def GD(X, y, eta=0.001, n_iter=100):
theta = np.zeros(X.shape[1])
for i in range(n_iter):
for j in range(X.shape[0]):
grad = (2 * np.mean(X[j,:] # theta - y[j]) * X[j,:]) # changed line
theta -= eta * grad
return theta
# SGD implementation for linear regression
def SGD(X, y, eta=0.001, n_iter=1000, batch_size=25, seed=7678):
theta = np.zeros(X.shape[1])
indexSet = list(range(len(X)))
np.random.seed(seed)
for i in range(n_iter):
np.random.shuffle(indexSet) # random shuffle of index set
for j in range(round(len(X) / batch_size)+1):
X_sub = X[indexSet[j*batch_size:(j+1)*batch_size],:]
y_sub = y[indexSet[j*batch_size:(j+1)*batch_size]]
if(len(X_sub) > 0):
grad = (2 * np.mean(X_sub # theta - y_sub) * X_sub) # changed line
theta -= eta * np.mean(grad, axis=0)
return theta
Running the code, I get
print('MSE with GD : ', MSE(X, y, theta_gd))
print('MSE with SGD: ', MSE(X, y, theta_sgd))
> MSE with GD : 0.07602
MSE with SGD: 0.05762
Each observation has 5 features, and X contains 1000 observations:
X = rng.rand(1000, 5) * 10 # X.shape == (1000, 5)
Create y which is perfectly linearly correlated with X (with no distortions):
real_weights = np.array([2.2, 4, -4, 1, 2]).reshape(-1, 1)
real_bias = 0.9
y = X # real_weights + real_bias # y.shape == (1000, 1)
G.D. implementation for linear regression:
Note:
w (weights) is your theta variable.
I have also added the calculation of b (bias).
def GD(X, y, eta=0.1, n_iter=20):
# Initialize weights and a bias (all zeros):
w = np.zeros((X.shape[1], 1)) # w.shape == (5, 1)
b = 0
# Gradient descent
for i in range(n_iter):
errors = X # w + b - y # errors.shape == (1000, 1)
dw = 2 * np.mean(errors * X, axis=0).reshape(5, 1)
db = 2 * np.mean(errors)
w -= eta * dw
b -= eta * db
return w, b
Testing:
w, b = GD(X, y, eta=0.003, n_iter=5000)
print(w, b)

I'm using the # operator because it's just my preference over np.dot.
This is my custom extension of one of Andrew NG's neural network from deep learning course where instead of producing 0 or 1 for binary classification I'm attempting
to classify multiple examples.
Both the inputs and outputs are one hot encoded.
With not much training I receive an accuracy of 'train accuracy: 67.51658067499625 %'
How can I classify a single training example instead of classifying all training examples?
I think a bug exists in my implementation as an issue with this network is training examples (train_set_x) and output values (train_set_y) both need to have same dimensions or an error related to the dimensionality of matrices is received.
For example using :
train_set_x = np.array([
[1,1,1,1],[0,1,1,1],[0,0,1,1]
])
train_set_y = np.array([
[1,1,1],[1,1,0],[1,1,1]
])
returns error :

Update: A bug exists in this implementation in that the training example pairs (train_set_x , train_set_y) must contain the same dimensions. Can point in direction of how linear algebra should be modified?
Update 2 :
I modified #Paul Panzer answer so that learning rate is 0.001 and train_set_x , train_set_y pairs are unique :
train_set_x = np.array([
[1,1,1,1,1],[0,1,1,1,1],[0,0,1,1,0],[0,0,1,0,1]
])
train_set_y = np.array([
[1,0,0],[0,0,1],[0,1,0],[1,0,1]
])
grads = model(train_set_x, train_set_y, num_iterations = 20000, learning_rate = 0.001, print_cost = True)
# To classify single training example :
print(sigmoid(dw # [0,0,1,1,0] + db))
This update produces following output :

Should print(sigmoid(dw # [0,0,1,1,0] + db)) produce a vector that once rounded matches train_set_y corresponding value : [0,1,0] ?
Modifying to produce a vector with (adding [0,0,1,1,0] to numpy array and taking transpose):
print(sigmoid(dw # np.array([[0,0,1,1,0]]).T + db))
returns :
array([[ 0.51309252],
[ 0.48646923],
[ 0.50990734]])
Again, rounding these values to nearest whole number produces vector [1,0,1] when [0,1,0] is expected.
These are incorrect operations to produce a prediction for single training example ?
Your difficulties come from mismatched dimensions, so let's walk through the problem and try and get them straight.
Your network has a number of inputs, the features, let's call their number N_in (numberOfFeatures in your code). And it has a number of outputs which correspond to different classes let's call their number N_out. Inputs and outputs are connected by the weights w.
Now here is the problem. Connections are all-to-all, so we need a weight for each of the N_out x N_in pairs of outputs and inputs. Therefore in your code the shape of w must be changed to (N_out, N_in). You probably also want an offset b for each output, so b should be a vector of size (N_out,) or rather (N_out, 1) so it plays well with the 2d terms.
I've fixed that in the modified code below and I tried to make it very explicit. I've also thrown a mock data creator into the bargain.
Re the one-hot encoded categorical output, I'm not an expert on neural networks but I think, most people understand it so that classes are mutually exclusive, so each sample in your mock output should have one one and the rest zeros.
Side note:
At one point a competing answer advised you to get rid of the 1-... terms in the cost function. While that looks like an interesting idea to me my gut feeling (Edit Now confirmed using gradient-free minimizer; use activation="hybrid" in code below. Solver will simply maximize all outputs which are active in at least one training example.) is it won't work just like that because the cost will then fail to penalise false positives (see below for detailed explanation). To make it work you'd have to add some kind of regularization. One method that appears to work is using the softmax instead of the sigmoid. The softmax is to one-hot what the sigmoid is to binary. It makes sure the output is "fuzzy one-hot".
Therefore my recommendation is:
If you want to stick with sigmoid and not explicitly enforce one-hot predictions. Keep the 1-... term.
If you want to use the shorter cost function. Enforce one-hot predictions. For example by using softmax instead of sigmoid.
I've added an activation="sigmoid"|"softmax"|"hybrid" parameter to the code that switches between models. I've also made the scipy general purpose minimizer available, which may be useful when the gradient of the cost is not at hand.
Recap on how the cost function works:
The cost is a sum over all classes and all training samples of the term
-y log (y') - (1-y) log (1-y')
where y is the expected response, i.e. the one given by the "y" training sample for the input (the "x" training sample). y' is the prediction, the response the network with its current weights and biases generates. Now, because the expected response is either 0 or 1 the cost for a single category and a single training sample can be written
-log (y') if y = 1
-log(1-y') if y = 0
because in the first case (1-y) is zero, so the second term vanishes and in the secondo case y is zero, so the first term vanishes.
One can now convince oneself that the cost is high if
the expected response y is 1 and the network prediction y' is close to zero
the expected response y is 0 and the network prediction y' is close to one
In other words the cost does its job in punishing wrong predictions. Now, if we drop the second term (1-y) log (1-y') half of this mechanism is gone. If the expected response is 1, a low prediction will still incur a cost, but if the expected response is 0, the cost will be zero, regardless of the prediction, in particular, a high prediction (or false positive) will go unpunished.
Now, because the total cost is a sum over all training samples, there are three possibilities.
all training samples prescribe that the class be zero:
then the cost will be completely independent of the predictions for this class and no learning can take place
some training samples put the class at zero, some at one:
then because "false negatives" or "misses" are still punished but false positives aren't the net will find the easiest way to minimize the cost which is to indiscriminately increase the prediction of the class for all samples
all training samples prescribe that the class be one:
essentially the same as in the second scenario will happen, only here it's no problem, because that is the correct behavior
And finally, why does it work if we use softmax instead of sigmoid? False positives will still be invisible. Now it is easy to see that the sum over all classes of the softmax is one. So I can only increase the prediction for one class if at least one other class is reduced to compensate. In particular, there can be no false positives without a false negative, and the false negative the cost will detect.
On how to get a binary prediction:
For binary expected responses rounding is indeed the appropriate procedure. For one-hot I'd rather find the largest value, set that to one and all others to zero. I've added a convenience function, predict, implementing that.

Both the idea of how to fix the bug and how you can extend the implementation to classify between more classes can be solved with some dimensionality analysis.
I am assuming that you by classifying multiple examples mean multiple classes and not multiple samples, as we need multiple samples to train even for 2 classes.
Where N = number of samples, D = number of features, K = number of categories(with K=2 being a special case where one can reduce this down to one dimension,ie K=1 with y=0 signifying one class and y=1 the other). The data should have the following dimensions:
X: N * D #input
y: N * K #output
W: D * K #weights, also dW has same dimensions
b: 1 * K #bias, also db has same dimensions
#A should have same dimensions as y
The order of the dimensions can be switched around, as long as the dot products are done correctly.
First dealing with your bug: You are initializing W as N * K instead of D * K ie. in the binary case:
w = np.zeros((numberOfTrainingExamples , 1))
#instead of
w = np.zeros((numberOfFeatures , 1))
This means that the only time you are initializing W to correct dimensions is when y and X (coincidentally) have same dimensions.
This will mess with your dot products as well:
np.dot(X, w) # or np.dot(w.T,X.T) if you define y as [K * N] dimensions
#instead of
np.dot(w.T , X)
and
np.dot( X.T, ( A - Y ) ) #np.dot( X.T, ( A - Y ).T ) if y:[K * N]
#instead of
np.dot( X, ( A - Y ).T )
Also make sure that the cost function returns one number (ie. not an array).
Secondly going on to K>2 you need to make some changes. b is no longer a single number, but a vector (1D-array). y and W go from being 1D-array to 2D array. To avoid confusion and hard-to-find bugs it could be good to set K, N and D to different values
