This tutorial trains a TensorFlow model to classify the CIFAR-10 dataset, and we compile it using XLA.
You will load and normalize the dataset using the TensorFlow Datasets (TFDS) API. First, install/upgrade TensorFlow and TFDS:
pip install -U -q tensorflow tensorflow_datasets
import tensorflow as tf
import tensorflow_datasets as tfds

def load_data():
result = tfds.load('cifar10', batch_size = -1)
(x_train, y_train) = result['train']['image'],result['train']['label']
(x_test, y_test) = result['test']['image'],result['test']['label']

return ((x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test))
(x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = load_data()
We define the model, adapted from the Keras CIFAR-10 example:
def generate_model():
return tf.keras.models.Sequential([
tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(32, (3, 3), padding='same', input_shape=x_train.shape[1:]),
tf.keras.layers.Activation('relu'),
tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(32, (3, 3)),
tf.keras.layers.Activation('relu'),
tf.keras.layers.MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)),
tf.keras.layers.Dropout(0.25),
tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(64, (3, 3), padding='same'),
tf.keras.layers.Activation('relu'),
tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(64, (3, 3)),
tf.keras.layers.Activation('relu'),
tf.keras.layers.MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)),
tf.keras.layers.Dropout(0.25),
tf.keras.layers.Flatten(),
tf.keras.layers.Dense(512),
tf.keras.layers.Activation('relu'),
tf.keras.layers.Dropout(0.5),
tf.keras.layers.Dense(10),
tf.keras.layers.Activation('softmax')
])
model = generate_model()
We train the model using the RMSprop optimizer:
def compile_model(model):
opt = tf.keras.optimizers.RMSprop(learning_rate=0.0001)
model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy',
optimizer=opt,
metrics=['accuracy'])
return model
model = compile_model(model)
def train_model(model, x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test, epochs=25):
model.fit(x_train, y_train, batch_size=256, epochs=epochs, validation_data=(x_test, y_test), shuffle=True)
def warmup(model, x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test):
# Warm up the JIT, we do not wish to measure the compilation time.
initial_weights = model.get_weights()
train_model(model, x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test, epochs=1)
model.set_weights(initial_weights)
warmup(model, x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test)
%time train_model(model, x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test)
scores = model.evaluate(x_test, y_test, verbose=1)
print('Test loss:', scores[0])
print('Test accuracy:', scores[1])

Now let's train the model again, using the XLA compiler. To enable the compiler in the middle of the application, we need to reset the Keras session.
# We need to clear the session to enable JIT in the middle of the program.
tf.keras.backend.clear_session()
tf.config.optimizer.set_jit(True) # Enable XLA.
model = compile_model(generate_model())
(x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = load_data()
warmup(model, x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test)
