# oxnn -- Oxford NN Library
This library contains extensions to the Torch nn and cunn libraries. This is
development code and is not fully tested.
## Highlights
* RNNs
* [oxnn.SequenceOfWords](rnn/SequenceOfWords.lua) - Deep RNN class for
sentences. It can handle batches where sentence lengths vary across and
within batches, with output and loss appropriately masked.
* Optimized LSTM cell [oxnn.ModelUtil.LSTM12cl](util/ModelUtil.lua),
[oxnn.LSTM12Part2](nn/LSTM12Part2.lua).
* [oxnn.RecurrentPropagator](rnn/RecurrentPropagator.lua) - Module for
executing custom computations graphs, which is useful for RNNs. It handles
cloning and weight sharing of modules that are used multiple times. Each
batch can have a different computation graph,
* NN
* [oxnn.LinearBlockDiagonal](nn/LinearBlockDiagonal.lua)
* [oxnn.LinearCAddInplace](nn/LinearCAddInplace.lua)
* [oxnn.LogSoftMaxInplace](nn/LogSoftMaxInplace.lua)
* [oxnn.NarrowTable](nn/NarrowTable.lua) - multiple narrows on one tensor.
* [oxnn.NoAccGradParameters](nn/NoAccGradParameters.lua) - do not train
parameters of a module.
* [oxnn.VecsToVecs](nn/VecsToVecs.lua) - maps vectors to vectors, given and
retuned as a table or a tensor of batch of vectors for each time step.
* Text
* [oxnn.Vocabulary](text/Vocabulary.lua)
* [oxnn.TextUtil](text/TextUtil.lua)
Documentation can be found at the top of the files, and we provide some
(examples)[examples/].

## Short examples
### oxnn.SequenceOfWords
Two layer LSTM:
```lua
lstm = oxnn.SequenceOfWords{
lookuptable = nn.Sequential():add(nn.LookupTable(10, 128))
:add(nn.SplitTable(2)),
recurrent = { oxnn.ModelUtil.LSTMCell12cl(128, true), -- layer 1
oxnn.ModelUtil.LSTMCell12cl(128, true) },-- layer 2
output =
nn.Sequential()
:add(nn.Linear(128, 10))
:add(oxnn.LogSoftMaxInplace(true,true)),
loss = 'nllloss',
layers = 2
}
pad = 10
-- batch of 2 sequences of lengths 4 and 3
input = { { { torch.zeros(2,128), torch.zeros(2,128) }, -- initial state layer 1
{ torch.zeros(2,128), torch.zeros(2,128) } }, -- initial state layer 2
torch.Tensor{ { 1, 7, 9, 8 }, -- sentence 1
{ 2, 3, 5, pad } }, -- sentence 2
{ 4, 3 } -- sentence lengths
}
print(lstm:forward(input))
{
1 :
{
1 :
{
1 : DoubleTensor - size: 2x128 -- last recurrent state for layer 1
2 : DoubleTensor - size: 2x128 -- not including the padding step
}
2 :
{
1 : DoubleTensor - size: 2x128 -- last recurrent state for layer 2
2 : DoubleTensor - size: 2x128 -- not including the padding step
}
}
2 : 2.3162038392024 -- NLL/(3+2) (per output token);
-- as loss gradOutput pass 0
}
```

### oxnn.RecurrentPropagator
We will implement a one layer LSTM that takes batches of sequences. Sequences
within a batch need to have the same lengths, but can change across batches.
```lua
local cuda = false
require 'oxnn'
if cuda then oxnn.InitCuda() end
-- We implement a simple LSTM
--
-- Predict B C
-- ^ ^
-- | |
-- init -> Cell -> Cell -> Cell -> representation
-- ^ ^ ^
-- | | |
-- A B C
lookuptable = nn.Sequential():add(nn.LookupTable(10, 128))
:add(nn.SplitTable(2))
recurrent = oxnn.ModelUtil.LSTMCell12cl(128, true)
output = nn.Sequential():add(nn.Linear(128, 10))
:add(oxnn.LogSoftMaxInplace(true,true))
criterion = oxnn.CriterionTable(nn.ClassNLLCriterion())
targets = nn.Sequential():add(nn.SplitTable(2))
rp = oxnn.RecurrentPropagator()
rp, mod_lt = rp:add(lookuptable) -- modifies rp inplace
rp, mod_rec = rp:add(recurrent)
rp, mod_out = rp:add(output)
rp, mod_crit = rp:add(criterion)
rp, mod_targ = rp:add(targets)
rp._cg = function(batch, type)
-- This function creates a computation graph for the given batch (i.e.
-- input); it is called for each input. The modules are not executed during
-- the run of this function. type is the last type we used to type the
-- RecurrentPropagator with.
local edges = {} -- the edges of the CG
local r = oxnn.RPUtil.CGUtil(edges) -- helper functions
-- We will assume the batch has the same format as above example, but for one
-- layer.
local len = batch[2]:size(2)
-- The outputs are stored in virtual stacks. We create a stack. The string
-- argument shows only when debugging.
-- (For debugging set RecurrentPropagator.debug to 1 or 3.
--
-- When storing we need specify the index, where inputs[1] would be the top
-- of the stack.
local inputs = r.S('inputs')
-- Add the first edge to the edges table.
r.E { r.i(2), mod_lt, inputs[{len,1}] }
-- Output of the lookuptable is a table with input for each time step.
-- inputs[{len,1}] is equivalent to {inputs[len],inputs[len-1]...inputs[1]}.
-- (Note that we can store only at the top of the stack, however, when we are
-- storing multiple values, we need to index them with contiguous decreasing
-- indices up to 1. This is so that on backward pass we can reverse graph.)
--
-- Inputs from the batch are accessed similarly. The elements of the input
-- table correspond the r.i(1), r.i(2),... Each input is regarded also as a
-- stack and needs to be indexed, e.g. r.i(1)[2]; except in a special case
-- when batch[j] is a tensor, then we can use simply r.i(j), as we did above.
local rec_state = r.S('rec_state')
r.E { r.i(1)[1], nn.Identity(), rec_state[1] } -- initial LSTM state
-- As a module in an edge we usually use the module string returned when
-- adding a module to the RecurrentPropagator (here mod_lt,...); we can
-- also use a new module, but this module is created anew for each batch, and
-- it's particularly bad if it allocates memory. This is not an issue with
-- nn.Identity().
local outputs = r.S('outputs')
for i=len,1,-1 do
r.E { { rec_state[1], inputs[i] },
mod_rec,
{ rec_state[1], outputs[1] } }
-- Each time mod_rec is used, a clone that shares the parameters of the
-- original is used (and reused for subsequent batches).
-- We take the appropriate input and store the output on the top of the
-- stack. Note that rec_state[1] on both input and output is a table of
-- two elements: h and c (hidden layers of the LSTM).
end
local after_out = r.S('after_out')
for i=len,2,-1 do
r.E { outputs[i], mod_out, after_out[1] }
end
local targets_all = r.S('targets_all')
-- To demonstrate r.Split
r.E { r.i(2), mod_targ, targets_all[1] }
local targets = r.Split(targets_all[1], len)
-- this is equivalent to
-- r.E { targets_all[1], nn.Identity(), targets[{len,1}] }
-- where targets is a new stack. We could have "saved" to multiple stack
-- places directly.
local losses = r.S('loss')
--target of ouput of first time step (after_out[len-1]) is the input of
--second timestep(target[len-1]), and so forth
for i=len-1,1,-1 do
r.E { { after_out[i], targets[i] },
mod_crit,
losses[1] }
end
-- Some of the computed values are not used and expect a gradient flowing
-- back so we put zero loss on them. The only module allowed without a
-- gradient flowing back is oxnn.CriterionTable .
r.E { {outputs[1],nil}, oxnn.CriterionTable(oxnn.ZeroLoss()), r.S('0')[1] }
r.E { {rec_state[1],nil}, oxnn.CriterionTable(oxnn.ZeroLoss()), r.S('0')[1] }
r.E { {targets[len],nil}, oxnn.CriterionTable(oxnn.ZeroLoss()), r.S('0')[1] }
-- Ideally, we would add the above modules to the RecurrentPropagator since
-- they allocate memory; this way they do it for each batch.
local lengths = {}
for i=1,batch[2]:size(1) do table.insert(lengths, len) end
r.E { {losses[{len-1,1}], nil}, -- table of table of losses since
-- CriterionTable expects a table.
oxnn.CriterionTable(oxnn.SumLosses(true, lengths)), -- sum the losses
-- and average
r.S('final output')[1] }
-- output from RecurrentPropagator is the output of the last edge/module.
return edges
end
-- batch of 2 sequences of lengths 4 and 4
input = { { { torch.zeros(2,128), torch.zeros(2,128) } },
torch.Tensor{ { 1, 7, 9, 8 }, -- sentence 1
{ 2, 3, 5, 6 } }, -- sentence 2
{ 4, 3 } -- sentence lengths
}
if cuda then
rp:cuda()
input[1][1][1] = input[1][1][2]:cuda()
input[1][1][2] = input[1][1][2]:cuda()
input[2] = input[2]:cuda()
end
print(rp:forward(input))
print(rp:backward(input, 0)) -- 0 since output if only a number and the loss
-- does not require a gradient.
