# 🤗Hugging Face ML researcher/engineer code exercise - Funky multi-modal version

By [Yury Kashnitsky](https://yorko.github.io/)

There are 4 parts that I present here:

1. A Jupyter notebook which expresses the way I tackled the problem
2. Readme here is mostly populated with the content of that Jupyter notebook 
3. Console utility 
4. Dockerized Streamlit application

# Part 1. Jupyter

[Jupyter Notebook](notebooks/simple_mapping_model_coco_captions.ipynb), stand-alone [HTML version](notebooks/simple_mapping_model_coco_captions.html). This is a "researchy" Jupyter notebook, it gives a good idea of how I approached the problem, it's also good to analyze model behavior and, in general, to present stuff. But the code quality shall not be judged here :) For this purpose, better refer to parts 3 and 4.

# Part 2. README

## Intro

Here I train a mapping model with [COCO captions](http://cocodataset.org/#home). I realized that COCO captions is almost an ideal source to train the mapping model, although it covers a bit more than 50% of ImageNet classes and only 155 are left when we select those classes known to BERT (possible [improvements](#Possible-improvements) are discussed in the end).

I select only those captions containing exactly **one** word from ImageNet classes.

a [UNK] stop sign and a red [UNK] on the road ⟶ sign 
the vanity contains two sinks with a towel for each ⟶ towel 
 a person [UNK] from the rain by their umbrella walks down the road ⟶ umbrella 
 two bicycles and a woman walking in front of a shop ⟶ shop 
 a brown horse is grazing grass near a red house ⟶ horse

The model itself is just a dense layer, so it performs a linear mapping of BERT hidden states to BigGAN class embeddings.

Mapping model input is sized `[max_seq_len x lm_hidden_size]` [15 x 768] 
Mapping model output is sized `[max_seq_len x biggan_class_emb_dim]` [15 x 128]

The model behavior is further [analyzed](#Playing-around-with-the-model). Also, [possible improvements](#Possible-improvements) are listed.

## COCO captions

I utilized the `load_coco_data` script from Stanford's cs231n course and ended up with ~400k training captions and 200k validation captions. Then I select only captions containing exactly one ImageNet word, thus left with 162k train captions and 79k validation captions.

## Mapping model

The mapping model is just a Linear layer. Its output is compared to true BigGAN embeddings via MSE loss.

- `X` - BERT hidden states for the text input, `[max_seq_len x bert_hidden_size]`
- `Z` - BigGAN embeddings for each input token, `[max_seq_len x gan_emb_size]`
- `W` - mapping matrix, learned below, `[bert_hidden_size x gan_emb_size]`
- `max_seq_len` = 15 - maximal sequence length in words, shorter texts are padded, longer ones are trimmed
- `bert_hidden_size` = 768 - dimensionality of BERT (or DistilBERT) LM output hidden states
- `gan_emb_size` = 128 - dimensionality of BigGAN class embeddings

## Training the mapping model

As described in the [notebook](notebooks/simple_mapping_model_coco_captions.ipynb), the actual training is done with a script based on that notebook (not tidied up and thus not attached here).

## Playing around with the model

### Good cases

This approach works fairly well with classes well presented in COCO captions, eg. dog, bus, shop, coffee, sign.

Creating GIFs is a bit tedious, so please look for more examples in the notebook. Also, these animations can be played with saved images:

> `python src/display_image_series.py --path_to_gen_images img --file_mask ex1_dog --text "a dog is faster than a cat"`

We see that contextualization works. There's no "puppy" in ImageNet classes, however, we succeed in drawing dogs in the following example. Moreover, due to Wordpiece, the BERT hidden states are not harmed by extra punctuation, camel case, etc.

> `python src/display_image_series.py --path_to_gen_images img --file_mask ex2_puppy --text "Oh, such a cute PuPPy\!:)"`

Typos are also handled (sometimes).

> `python src/display_image_series.py --path_to_gen_images img --file_mask ex3_buss "i was standing at the buss stop"`

Some more simple examples.

> `python src/display_image_series.py --path_to_gen_images img --file_mask ex2_bus --text "i went there by bus"`

> `python src/display_image_series.py --path_to_gen_images gen_images --file_mask ex5_sign_building  --text "there is a sign in front of a building"`

### Bad cases

Some of the classes are present in COCO captions but still are dominated by other objects. Other classes are just not present in COCO captions, eg. cobra or volcano.

> `python src/display_image_series.py --path_to_gen_images img --file_mask ex10_cobra --text "cobra is a dangerous animal"`

The model doesn't seem to cope with >1 class in a caption. In this example, we have both "elephant" and "bus", and some funny mixtures of animals and means of transport are produced.

> `python src/display_image_series.py --path_to_gen_images img --file_mask ex12_elephant  --text "an elephant is slower than a bus"`

## Retrospective

### Good traits of the built solution

- The mapping is done with a simple model (a linear mapping) and it's shown to work for some ImageNet classes 
- Contextualization works, there are no "puppies" in ImageNet, however, the model shows dogs for the phrase "Oh, such a cute PuPPy!:)"
- Thanks to BERT's WordPiece tokenization, the solution is somewhat stable, small typos, punctuation etc. don't spoil the picture - like in the example with "Oh, such a cute PuPPy!:)"
- The model copes fairly enough with images corresponding to ImageNet classes that are well presented in COCO captions. eg. bus, sign, coffee, and, of course, dog. 
- It also copes pretty well with the "poem" (I was walking out of the bookstore \ when I saw a huge volcano in the background \ I went slowly by the park \ and met an old friend of mine)

### Bad traits of the built solution

- Only 155 ImageNet classes are there in training COCO captions, so we fail to visualize some concepts like cobra or volcano
- The model doesn't seem to cope with >1 class in a caption, eg. "a dog is faster than a cat" - only dogs are drawn. Or "an elephant is slower than a bus" - some funny mixtures of animals and means of transport are produced.

### What didn't work

- Keeping original captions with up to 8 ImageNet words in each one. Thus the target BigGAN embedding matrix contains embeddings for more than one class. In my case the model failed to learn anything
- Replacing simple linear mapping with a more complex MLP didn't improve the results
- Tried adding simple patterns to COCO captions, actually had a template for several patterns, each one produced 1k examples like "I noticed a truck", "she saw a sign" etc. The model didn't train well for me, probably just a matter of the learning rate

### Possible improvements

> List some improvements you would propose to improve this data generation process

Here I address both the "Building a dataset of text sequence associated with ImageNet classes" and "Building a dataset for training a mapping function" parts of the provided assignment.

- Here I used COCO captions. This covered 155 ImageNet classes out of 598 that we used here. But actually, any text will do as long as it contains ImageNet classes. So the training dataset can be extended with eg. extracts from Wikipedia pages with corresponding words ("Lion", "Cheetah", "Volcano" etc.)
- Adding synthetic captions. With a template like "\<<SUBJ\>> \<<VERB\>> \<<WORD\>> \<<PLACE\>>" we can generate as many captions as we wish if we vary subject (I, he, she, we, they etc.), verb (saw, noticed, spotted etc.), place (here, there, in front of the building etc) and word (1k ImageNet classes). As I mentioned, I didn't train a better model with these synthetic captions, but still it's a good way to extend the training set for the mapping model
- Augmentations, eg. synonym replacement. We didn't find the word "beast" in COCO captions, but we can take existing ones with the words "lion" or "tiger" and replace them with the word "beast" to get new captions.

More remarks:

- The training dataset can be further enlarged with other captions, eg. [Conceptual Captions](https://ai.googleblog.com/2018/09/conceptual-captions-new-dataset-and.html)
 - Technically, training could have been done better, eg. with LR Finder
 - A more complicated model can be trained, eg. an MLP
 - I considered the following as cheating and didn't implement it: but if there's an ImageNet word in a text (eg. cobra), then one can generate a BigGAN embedding for this word right away (using `BigGAN.embeddings(one_hot_from_names('name'))`) bypassing BERT and the mapping model. That would've solved the problem that some ImageNet classes are not there in the training dataset.

# Part 3. Console utility

The end-to-end text2image model is defined in `src/text2image_model.py`. The script either prompts user to insert a phrase, and then visualizes generated images in a separate window. Or it replays examples defined in the `config.yml` file.

- Install dependencies listed in `requirements.txt`
 - Check configs in `config.yml`, in particular, whether the model needs to be run on CPU or GPU, flag `interactive` needs to be turned to True
 - Run `python src/text2image_model.py` and play around with your custom text
 - Alternatively, set the `interactive` flag to False, then examples from the `config.yml` will be replayed.

This initializes 2 pre-trained models (transformer and BigGAN), loads pre-trained mapping model, prompts the user to insert a phrase, and then visualizes the corresponding slideshow (generated images) in a separate window (not in a terminal, thus wouldn't work on a remote machine). On CPU, it takes some 10 seconds to generate a minibatch of images. With GPU it's about 1.5 sec.

# Part 4. Dockerized Streamlit application

Here I ship a Docker image with the logic implemented as a Streamlit application.

- run `docker-compose up` (noticed that it's better to allocate at least 8 Gb for the image)
 - open [http://localhost:8501](http://localhost:8501/)
