Recall that we can break down this process into two steps: # # 1. First we must compute the distances between all test examples and all train examples. # 2. Given these distances, for each test example we find the k nearest examples and have them vote for the label # # Lets begin with computing the distance matrix between all training and test examples. For example, if there are **Ntr** training examples and **Nte** test examples, this stage should result in a **Nte x Ntr** matrix where each element (i,j) is the distance between the i-th test and j-th train example. # # First, open `cs231n/classifiers/k_nearest_neighbor.py` and implement the function `compute_distances_two_loops` that uses a (very inefficient) double loop over all pairs of (test, train) examples and computes the distance matrix one element at a time. # In[8]: # Open cs231n/classifiers/k_nearest_neighbor.py and implement # compute_distances_two_loops. # Test your implementation: dists = classifier.compute_distances_two_loops(X_test) print dists.shape # In[9]: # We can visualize the distance matrix: each row is a single test example and # its distances to training examples plt.imshow(dists, interpolation='none') plt.show() # **Inline Question #1:** Notice the structured patterns in the distance matrix, where some rows or columns are visible brighter. (Note that with the default color scheme black indicates low distances while white indicates high distances.) # # - What in the data is the cause behind the distinctly bright rows? # - What causes the columns? # **Your Answer**: *fill this in.* # # # In[11]: # Now implement the function predict_labels and run the code below: # We use k = 1 (which is Nearest Neighbor). y_test_pred = classifier.predict_labels(dists, k=1) # Compute and print the fraction of correctly predicted examples num_correct = np.sum(y_test_pred == y_test) accuracy = float(num_correct) / num_test print 'Got %d / %d correct => accuracy: %f' % (num_correct, num_test, accuracy) # You should expect to see approximately `27%` accuracy. Now lets try out a larger `k`, say `k = 5`: # In[12]: y_test_pred = classifier.predict_labels(dists, k=5) num_correct = np.sum(y_test_pred == y_test) accuracy = float(num_correct) / num_test print 'Got %d / %d correct => accuracy: %f' % (num_correct, num_test, accuracy) # You should expect to see a slightly better performance than with `k = 1`. # In[13]: # Now lets speed up distance matrix computation by using partial vectorization # with one loop. Implement the function compute_distances_one_loop and run the # code below: dists_one = classifier.compute_distances_one_loop(X_test) # To ensure that our vectorized implementation is correct, we make sure that it # agrees with the naive implementation. There are many ways to decide whether # two matrices are similar; one of the simplest is the Frobenius norm. In case # you haven't seen it before, the Frobenius norm of two matrices is the square # root of the squared sum of differences of all elements; in other words, reshape # the matrices into vectors and compute the Euclidean distance between them. difference = np.linalg.norm(dists - dists_one, ord='fro') print 'Difference was: %f' % (difference, ) if difference < 0.001: print 'Good!
