Jaka jest złożoność czasu na szkolenie sieci neuronowej z wykorzystaniem propagacji wstecznej?

17

Załóżmy, że zawiera NN n ukryte warstwy m przykładami treningu, x funkcje, a ni węzłów w każdej warstwie. Jaka jest złożoność czasu, aby trenować ten NN przy użyciu propagacji wstecznej?

Mam podstawowe pojęcie o tym, jak znajdują złożoność czasową algorytmów, ale tutaj należy wziąć pod uwagę 4 różne czynniki, tj. Iteracje, warstwy, węzły w każdej warstwie, przykłady szkolenia i może więcej czynników. Znalazłem tutaj odpowiedź , ale nie była wystarczająco jasna.

Czy istnieją inne czynniki, oprócz tych wymienionych powyżej, które wpływają na złożoność czasową algorytmu szkoleniowego NN?

Nie widziałem odpowiedzi z zaufanego źródła, ale spróbuję odpowiedzieć na to sam, na prostym przykładzie (z moją obecną wiedzą).

Zasadniczo należy zauważyć, że szkolenie MLP przy użyciu propagacji wstecznej jest zwykle realizowane za pomocą macierzy.

Złożoność czasowa mnożenia macierzy

Złożoność czasowa mnożenia macierzy dla MijMjk wynosi po prostu O(ijk) .

Zauważ, że zakładamy tutaj najprostszy algorytm mnożenia: istnieją inne algorytmy o nieco lepszej złożoności czasowej.

Algorytm przekazywania do przodu

Algorytm propagacji do przodu jest następujący.

Po pierwsze, aby przejść z warstwy i do j , musisz

Sj=WjiZi

Następnie zastosujesz funkcję aktywacji

Zj=f(Sj)

If we have N layers (including input and output layer), this will run N1 times.

Example

As an example, let's compute the time complexity for the forward pass algorithm for a MLP with 4 layers, where i denotes the number of nodes of the input layer, j the number of nodes in the second layer, k the number of nodes in the third layer and l the number of nodes in the output layer.

43WjiWkj and Wlk, where Wji is a matrix with j rows and i columns (Wji thus contains the weights going from layer i to layer j).

Assume you have t training examples. For propagating from layer i to j, we have first

Sjt=WjiZit

and this operation (i.e. matrix multiplcation) has O(jit) time complexity. Then we apply the activation function

Zjt=f(Sjt)

and this has O(jt) time complexity, because it is an element-wise operation.

So, in total, we have

O(jit+jt)=O(jt(t+1))=O(jit)

Using same logic, for going jk, we have O(kjt), and, for kl, we have O(lkt).

In total, the time complexity for feedforward propagation will be

O(jit+kjt+lkt)=O(t(ij+jk+kl))

I'm not sure if this can be simplified further or not. Maybe it's just O(tijkl), but I'm not sure.

Back-propagation algorithm

The back-propagation algorithm proceeds as follows. Starting from the output layer lk, we compute the error signal, Elt, a matrix containing the error signals for nodes at layer l

Elt=f(Slt)(ZltOlt)

where means element-wise multiplication. Note that Elt has l rows and t columns: it simply means each column is the error signal for training example t.

We then compute the "delta weights", DlkRl×k (between layer l and layer k)

Dlk=EltZtk

where Ztk is the transpose of Zkt.

We then adjust the weights

Wlk=WlkDlk

For lk, we thus have the time complexity O(lt+lt+ltk+lk)=O(ltk).

Now, going back from kj. We first have

Ekt=f(Skt)(WklElt)

Then

Dkj=EktZtj

And then

Wkj=WkjDkj

where Wkl is the transpose of Wlk. For kj, we have the time complexity O(kt+klt+ktj+kj)=O(kt(l+j)).

And finally, for ji, we have O(jt(k+i)). In total, we have

O(ltk+tk(l+j)+tj(k+i))=O(t(lk+kj+ji))

which is same as feedforward pass algorithm. Since they are same, the total time complexity for one epoch will be

O(t(ij+jk+kl)).

This time complexity is then multiplied by number of iterations (epochs). So, we have

O(nt(ij+jk+kl)),
where n is number of iterations.

Notes

Note that these matrix operations can greatly be paralelized by GPUs.

Conclusion

We tried to find the time complexity for training a neural network that has 4 layers with respectively i, j, k and l nodes, with t training examples and n epochs. The result was O(nt(ij+jk+kl)).

We assumed the simplest form of matrix multiplication that has cubic time complexity. We used batch gradient descent algorithm. The results for stochastic and mini-batch gradient descent should be same. (Let me know if you think the otherwise: note that batch gradient descent is the general form, with little modification, it becomes stochastic or mini-batch)

Also, if you use momentum optimization, you will have same time complexity, because the extra matrix operations required are all element-wise operations, hence they will not affect the time complexity of the algorithm.

I'm not sure what the results would be using other optimizers such as RMSprop.

Sources

The following article http://briandolhansky.com/blog/2014/10/30/artificial-neural-networks-matrix-form-part-5 describes an implementation using matrices. Although this implementation is using "row major", the time complexity is not affected by this.

Your answer is great..I could not find any ambiguity till now, but you forgot the no. of iterations part, just add it...and if no one answers in 5 days i'll surely accept your answer

@DuttaA I tried to put every thing I knew. it may not be 100% correct so feel free to leave this unaccepted :) I'm also waiting for other answers to see what other points I missed.

For the evaluation of a single pattern, you need to process all weights and all neurons. Given that every neuron has at least one weight, we can ignore them, and have O(w) where w is the number of weights, i.e., nni, assuming full connectivity between your layers.

The back-propagation has the same complexity as the forward evaluation (just look at the formula).

So, the complexity for learning m examples, where each gets repeated e times, is O(wme).

The bad news is that there's no formula telling you what number of epochs e you need.

From the above answer don't you think itdepends on more factors?

@DuttaA No. There's a constant amount of work per weight, which gets repeated e times for each of m examples. I didn't bother to compute the number of weights, I guess, that's the difference.

I think the answers are same. in my answer I can assume number of weights w = ij + jk + kl. basically sum of n * n_i between layers as you noted.

A potential disadvantage of gradient-based methods is that they head for the nearest minimum, which is usually not the global minimum.

This means that the only difference between these search methods is the speed with which solutions are obtained, and not the nature of those solutions.

An important consideration is time complexity, which is the rate at which the time required to find a solution increases with the number of parameters (weights). In short, the time complexities of a range of different gradient-based methods (including second-order methods) seem to be similar.

Six different error functions exhibit a median run-time order of approximately O(N to the power 4) on the N-2-N encoder in this paper:

@nbro If James Stone can provide an insightful answer - and it seems so - then i'm fine with him also mentioning some of his work. Having experts on this network is a solid contribution to the quality and level.

Dear nbro, That is a fair comment. I dislike adverts too. But it is possible for a book and/or paper to be relevant to a question, as I believe it is in this case. regards, Jim Stone
