本文介绍如何利用TensorFlow实现Lasso和岭回归算法。通过在线性回归损失函数中引入正则项,分别使用L1范数(Lasso)和L2范数(Ridge)限制系数影响。文章提供完整代码示例,展示基于Iris数据集的训练过程、参数更新及损失收敛情况,帮助开发者掌握正则化技术。

在回归分析中,存在多种正则化方法用于约束模型输出系数的影响范围。其中,应用最为广泛的两种技术分别是Lasso回归与岭回归(Ridge Regression)。

Lasso回归和岭回归在基础架构上与常规线性回归高度相似,核心区别在于公式中引入了正则项以限制斜率(或净斜率)的大小。这一机制的主要目的是控制特征对因变量的影响程度,具体通过增加一个依赖于斜率A的损失函数来实现约束。

针对Lasso回归算法,需在损失函数中额外添加一项:斜率A的特定倍数。在TensorFlow实现中,由于阶跃函数缺乏直接可用的梯度,我们采用其连续估计形式,即连续阶跃函数。该函数在截止点处会发生跳跃式放大,后续将展示Lasso回归的具体应用方式。

对于岭回归算法,则在损失函数中引入L2范数,即对斜率系数施加L2正则化约束。

# LASSO and Ridge Regression
# lasso回归和岭回归
# 
# This function shows how to use TensorFlow to solve LASSO or 
# Ridge regression for 
# y = Ax + b
# 
# We will use the iris data, specifically: 
#  y = Sepal Length 
#  x = Petal Width

# import required libraries
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import sys
import numpy as np
import tensorflow as tf
from sklearn import datasets
from tensorflow.python.framework import ops


# Specify 'Ridge' or 'LASSO'
regression_type = 'LASSO'

# clear out old graph
ops.reset_default_graph()

# Create graph
sess = tf.Session()

###
# Load iris data
###

# iris.data = [(Sepal Length, Sepal Width, Petal Length, Petal Width)]
iris = datasets.load_iris()
x_vals = np.array([x[3] for x in iris.data])
y_vals = np.array([y[0] for y in iris.data])

###
# Model Parameters
###

# Declare batch size
batch_size = 50

# Initialize placeholders
x_data = tf.placeholder(shape=[None, 1], dtype=tf.float32)
y_target = tf.placeholder(shape=[None, 1], dtype=tf.float32)

# make results reproducible
seed = 13
np.random.seed(seed)
tf.set_random_seed(seed)

# Create variables for linear regression
A = tf.Variable(tf.random_normal(shape=[1,1]))
b = tf.Variable(tf.random_normal(shape=[1,1]))

# Declare model operations
model_output = tf.add(tf.matmul(x_data, A), b)

###
# Loss Functions
###

# Select appropriate loss function based on regression type

if regression_type == 'LASSO':
  # Declare Lasso loss function
  # 增加损失函数,其为改良过的连续阶跃函数,lasso回归的截止点设为0.9。
  # 这意味着限制斜率系数不超过0.9
  # Lasso Loss = L2_Loss + heavyside_step,
  # Where heavyside_step ~ 0 if A < constant, otherwise ~ 99
  lasso_param = tf.constant(0.9)
  heavyside_step = tf.truediv(1., tf.add(1., tf.exp(tf.multiply(-50., tf.subtract(A, lasso_param)))))
  regularization_param = tf.multiply(heavyside_step, 99.)
  loss = tf.add(tf.reduce_mean(tf.square(y_target - model_output)), regularization_param)

elif regression_type == 'Ridge':
  # Declare the Ridge loss function
  # Ridge loss = L2_loss + L2 norm of slope
  ridge_param = tf.constant(1.)
  ridge_loss = tf.reduce_mean(tf.square(A))
  loss = tf.expand_dims(tf.add(tf.reduce_mean(tf.square(y_target - model_output)), tf.multiply(ridge_param, ridge_loss)), 0)

else:
  print('Invalid regression_type parameter value',file=sys.stderr)


###
# Optimizer
###

# Declare optimizer
my_opt = tf.train.GradientDescentOptimizer(0.001)
train_step = my_opt.minimize(loss)

###
# Run regression
###

# Initialize variables
init = tf.global_variables_initializer()
sess.run(init)

# Training loop
loss_vec = []
for i in range(1500):
  rand_index = np.random.choice(len(x_vals), size=batch_size)
  rand_x = np.transpose([x_vals[rand_index]])
  rand_y = np.transpose([y_vals[rand_index]])
  sess.run(train_step, feed_dict={x_data: rand_x, y_target: rand_y})
  temp_loss = sess.run(loss, feed_dict={x_data: rand_x, y_target: rand_y})
  loss_vec.append(temp_loss[0])
  if (i+1)%300==0:
    print('Step #' + str(i+1) + ' A = ' + str(sess.run(A)) + ' b = ' + str(sess.run(b)))
    print('Loss = ' + str(temp_loss))
    print('\n')

###
# Extract regression results
###

# Get the optimal coefficients
[slope] = sess.run(A)
[y_intercept] = sess.run(b)

# Get best fit line
best_fit = []
for i in x_vals:
 best_fit.append(slope*i+y_intercept)


###
# Plot results
###

# Plot regression line against data points
plt.plot(x_vals, y_vals, 'o', label='Data Points')
plt.plot(x_vals, best_fit, 'r-', label='Best fit line', linewidth=3)
plt.legend(loc='upper left')
plt.title('Sepal Length vs Pedal Width')
plt.xlabel('Pedal Width')
plt.ylabel('Sepal Length')
plt.show()

# Plot loss over time
plt.plot(loss_vec, 'k-')
plt.title(regression_type + ' Loss per Generation')
plt.xlabel('Generation')
plt.ylabel('Loss')
plt.show()

模型运行输出结果如下:

Step #300 A = [[ 0.77170753]] b = [[ 1.82499862]] Loss = [[ 10.26473045]] Step #600 A = [[ 0.75908542]] b = [[ 3.2220633]] Loss = [[ 3.06292033]] Step #900 A = [[ 0.74843585]] b = [[ 3.9975822]] Loss = [[ 1.23220456]] Step #1200 A = [[ 0.73752165]] b = [[ 4.42974091]] Loss = [[ 0.57872057]] Step #1500 A = [[ 0.72942668]] b = [[ 4.67253113]] Loss = [[ 0.40874988]]

 

Lasso回归算法通过在标准线性回归估计基础上叠加连续阶跃函数来实现。由于阶跃函数的斜率特性,需特别注意学习步长的设置:过大的步长可能导致最终无法收敛。
