Why feature vectors have a lot of zero values in Keras VGG16 model's output?












0















I am trying to extract the features from the last layer of VGG16 model in Keras using the following code:



from keras.applications.vgg16 import VGG16
from keras.preprocessing import image
from keras.applications.vgg16 import preprocess_input
import numpy as np

model = VGG16(weights='imagenet', include_top=True )


img_path = 'E:projectKERAS DEEPpoodle.png'
img = image.load_img(img_path, target_size=(224, 224))
img_data = image.img_to_array(img)
img_data = np.expand_dims(img_data, axis=0)
img_data = preprocess_input(img_data)
model.summary()
model.layers.pop();
model.outputs = [model.layers[-1].output]
model.layers[-1].outbound_nodes =
feature = model.predict(img_data)[0]


feature variable supposes to be the feature vector but it has a lot of zeros, I think because of relu layer. In Matlab, for example, the extracted features vector seems to have both positive and negative values, how I can get the same with keras model?



The matlab code is:



im=imread('poodle.png');
im=imresize(im,[224,224]);
net=vgg16;
trainingFeatures = activations(net, im, 'fc7', ...
'OutputAs', 'rows');


the two output vectors feature and trainingFeatures as following (python output to the left and Matlab's to the right

  • There is no way to answer this if you don't include the equivalent Matlab code and the results you are seeing.

  • Which variables are you showing in the two pictures? feature and trainingFeatures? Also where is ResNet coming into this, it looks like you've only used VGG? Is your python model using ReLu and your MATLAB model using tanh maybe?

  • Yes, feature and trainingFeatures. I have edited the code and used vgg16 in both Python and Matlab for more clarification. Keras and Matlab model (vgg16) use the same ReLu layer

    Yes, it seems to be before ReLU, you can't extract the same in Keras as each layer has the ReLU embedded inside the layer. This explains all the differences.
