Introduction

pytorch-widedeep is based on Google's Wide and Deep Algorithm, adjusted for multi-modal datasets.

In general terms, pytorch-widedeep is a package to use deep learning with tabular data. In particular, is intended to facilitate the combination of text and images with corresponding tabular data using wide and deep models. With that in mind there are a number of architectures that can be implemented with the library. The main components of those architectures are shown in the Figure below:

In math terms, and following the notation in the paper, the expression for the architecture without a deephead component can be formulated as:

Where σ is the sigmoid function, 'W' are the weight matrices applied to the wide model and to the final activations of the deep models, 'a' are these final activations, φ(x) are the cross product transformations of the original features 'x', and , and 'b' is the bias term. In case you are wondering what are "cross product transformations", here is a quote taken directly from the paper: "For binary features, a cross-product transformation (e.g., “AND(gender=female, language=en)”) is 1 if and only if the constituent features (“gender=female” and “language=en”) are all 1, and 0 otherwise".

It is perfectly possible to use custom models (and not necessarily those in the library) as long as the the custom models have an property called output_dim with the size of the last layer of activations, so that WideDeep can be constructed. Examples on how to use custom components can be found in the Examples folder and the section below.

Architectures

The pytorch-widedeep library offers a number of different architectures. In this section we will show some of them in their simplest form (i.e. with default param values in most cases) with their corresponding code snippets. Note that all the snippets below shoud run locally. For a more detailed explanation of the different components and their parameters, please refer to the documentation.

For the examples below we will be using a toy dataset generated as follows:

import os
import random

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from PIL import Image
from faker import Faker


def create_and_save_random_image(image_number, size=(32, 32)):

    if not os.path.exists("images"):
        os.makedirs("images")

    array = np.random.randint(0, 256, (size[0], size[1], 3), dtype=np.uint8)

    image = Image.fromarray(array)

    image_name = f"image_{image_number}.png"
    image.save(os.path.join("images", image_name))

    return image_name


fake = Faker()

cities = ["New York", "Los Angeles", "Chicago", "Houston"]
names = ["Alice", "Bob", "Charlie", "David", "Eva"]

data = {
    "city": [random.choice(cities) for _ in range(100)],
    "name": [random.choice(names) for _ in range(100)],
    "age": [random.uniform(18, 70) for _ in range(100)],
    "height": [random.uniform(150, 200) for _ in range(100)],
    "sentence": [fake.sentence() for _ in range(100)],
    "other_sentence": [fake.sentence() for _ in range(100)],
    "image_name": [create_and_save_random_image(i) for i in range(100)],
    "target": [random.choice([0, 1]) for _ in range(100)],
}

df = pd.DataFrame(data)

This will create a 100 rows dataframe and a dir in your local folder, called images with 100 random images (or images with just noise).

Perhaps the simplest architecture would be just one component, wide, deeptabular, deeptext or deepimage on their own, which is also possible, but let's start the examples with a standard Wide and Deep architecture. From there, how to build a model comprised only of one component will be straightforward.

Note that the examples shown below would be almost identical using any of the models available in the library. For example, TabMlp can be replaced by TabResnet, TabNet, TabTransformer, etc. Similarly, BasicRNN can be replaced by AttentiveRNN, StackedAttentiveRNN, or HFModel with their corresponding parameters and preprocessor in the case of the Hugging Face models.

1. Wide and Tabular component (aka deeptabular)

from pytorch_widedeep.preprocessing import TabPreprocessor, WidePreprocessor

)
X_text_2 = text_preprocessor_2.fit_transform(df)
rnn_1 = BasicRNN(
    vocab_size=len(text_preprocessor_1.vocab.itos),
    embed_dim=16,
    hidden_dim=8,
    n_layers=1,
)
rnn_2 = BasicRNN(
    vocab_size=len(text_preprocessor_2.vocab.itos),
    embed_dim=16,
    hidden_dim=8,
    n_layers=1,
)

# WideDeep
model = WideDeep(deeptabular=tab_mlp, deeptext=[rnn_1, rnn_2])

# Train
trainer = Trainer(model, objective="binary")

trainer.fit(
    X_tab=X_tab,
    X_text=[X_text_1, X_text_2],
    target=df["target"].values,
    n_epochs=1,
    batch_size=32,
)

5. Tabular data and multiple text columns that are fused via a the library's ModelFuser class

from pytorch_widedeep.preprocessing import TabPreprocessor, TextPreprocessor
from pytorch_widedeep.models import TabMlp, BasicRNN, WideDeep, ModelFuser
from pytorch_widedeep import Trainer

# Tabular
tab_preprocessor = TabPreprocessor(
    embed_cols=["city", "name"], continuous_cols=["age", "height"]
)
X_tab = tab_preprocessor.fit_transform(df)
tab_mlp = TabMlp(
    column_idx=tab_preprocessor.column_idx,
    cat_embed_input=tab_preprocessor.cat_embed_input,
    continuous_cols=tab_preprocessor.continuous_cols,
    mlp_hidden_dims=[64, 32],
)

# Text
text_preprocessor_1 = TextPreprocessor(
    text_col="sentence", maxlen=20, max_vocab=100, n_cpus=1
)
X_text_1 = text_preprocessor_1.fit_transform(df)
text_preprocessor_2 = TextPreprocessor(
    text_col="other_sentence", maxlen=20, max_vocab=100, n_cpus=1
)
X_text_2 = text_preprocessor_2.fit_transform(df)

rnn_1 = BasicRNN(
    vocab_size=len(text_preprocessor_1.vocab.itos),
    embed_dim=16,
    hidden_dim=8,
    n_layers=1,
)
rnn_2 = BasicRNN(
    vocab_size=len(text_preprocessor_2.vocab.itos),
    embed_dim=16,
    hidden_dim=8,
    n_layers=1,
)

models_fuser = ModelFuser(models=[rnn_1, rnn_2], fusion_method="mult")

# WideDeep
model = WideDeep(deeptabular=tab_mlp, deeptext=models_fuser)

# Train
trainer = Trainer(model, objective="binary")

trainer.fit(
    X_tab=X_tab,
    X_text=[X_text_1, X_text_2],
    target=df["target"].values,
    n_epochs=1,
    batch_size=32,
)

6. Tabular and multiple text columns, with an image column. The text columns are fused via the library's ModelFuser and then all fused via the deephead paramenter in WideDeep which is a custom ModelFuser coded by the user

This is perhaps the less elegant solution as it involves a custom component by the user and slicing the 'incoming' tensor. In the future, we will include a TextAndImageModelFuser to make this process more straightforward. Still, is not really complicated and it is a good example of how to use custom components in pytorch-widedeep.

Note that the only requirement for the custom component is that it has a property called output_dim that returns the size of the last layer of activations. In other words, it does not need to inherit from BaseWDModelComponent. This base class simply checks the existence of such property and avoids some typing errors internally.

7. Tabular with a multi-target loss

This one is "a bonus" to illustrate the use of multi-target losses, more than actually a different architecture.

from pytorch_widedeep.preprocessing import TabPreprocessor, TextPreprocessor, ImagePreprocessor
from pytorch_widedeep.models import TabMlp, BasicRNN, WideDeep, ModelFuser, Vision
from pytorch_widedeep.losses_multitarget import MultiTargetClassificationLoss
from pytorch_widedeep.models._base_wd_model_component import BaseWDModelComponent
from pytorch_widedeep import Trainer

# let's add a second target to the dataframe
df["target2"] = [random.choice([0, 1]) for _ in range(100)]

# Tabular
tab_preprocessor = TabPreprocessor(
    embed_cols=["city", "name"], continuous_cols=["age", "height"]
)
X_tab = tab_preprocessor.fit_transform(df)
tab_mlp = TabMlp(
    column_idx=tab_preprocessor.column_idx,
    cat_embed_input=tab_preprocessor.cat_embed_input,
    continuous_cols=tab_preprocessor.continuous_cols,
    mlp_hidden_dims=[64, 32],
)

# 'pred_dim=2' because we have two binary targets. For other types of targets,
#  please, see the documentation
model = WideDeep(deeptabular=tab_mlp, pred_dim=2).

loss = MultiTargetClassificationLoss(binary_config=[0, 1], reduction="mean")

# When a multi-target loss is used, 'custom_loss_function' must not be None.
# See the docs
trainer = Trainer(model, objective="multitarget", custom_loss_function=loss)

trainer.fit(
    X_tab=X_tab,
    target=df[["target", "target2"]].values,
    n_epochs=1,
    batch_size=32,
)

The `deeptabular` component

It is important to emphasize again that each individual component, wide, deeptabular, deeptext and deepimage, can be used independently and in isolation. For example, one could use only wide, which is in simply a linear model. In fact, one of the most interesting functionalities inpytorch-widedeep would be the use of the deeptabular component on its own, i.e. what one might normally refer as Deep Learning for Tabular Data. Currently, pytorch-widedeep offers the following different models for that component:

Wide: a simple linear model where the nonlinearities are captured via cross-product transformations, as explained before.
TabMlp: a simple MLP that receives embeddings representing the categorical features, concatenated with the continuous features, which can also be embedded.
TabResnet: similar to the previous model but the embeddings are passed through a series of ResNet blocks built with dense layers.
TabNet: details on TabNet can be found in TabNet: Attentive Interpretable Tabular Learning

Two simpler attention based models that we call:

ContextAttentionMLP: MLP with at attention mechanism "on top" that is based on Hierarchical Attention Networks for Document Classification
SelfAttentionMLP: MLP with an attention mechanism that is a simplified version of a transformer block that we refer as "query-key self-attention".

The Tabformer family, i.e. Transformers for Tabular data:

TabTransformer: details on the TabTransformer can be found in TabTransformer: Tabular Data Modeling Using Contextual Embeddings.
SAINT: Details on SAINT can be found in SAINT: Improved Neural Networks for Tabular Data via Row Attention and Contrastive Pre-Training.
FT-Transformer: details on the FT-Transformer can be found in Revisiting Deep Learning Models for Tabular Data.
TabFastFormer: adaptation of the FastFormer for tabular data. Details on the Fasformer can be found in FastFormers: Highly Efficient Transformer Models for Natural Language Understanding
TabPerceiver: adaptation of the Perceiver for tabular data. Details on the Perceiver can be found in Perceiver: General Perception with Iterative Attention

And probabilistic DL models for tabular data based on Weight Uncertainty in Neural Networks:

BayesianWide: Probabilistic adaptation of the Wide model.
BayesianTabMlp: Probabilistic adaptation of the TabMlp model

Note that while there are scientific publications for the TabTransformer, SAINT and FT-Transformer, the TabFasfFormer and TabPerceiver are our own adaptation of those algorithms for tabular data.

In addition, Self-Supervised pre-training can be used for all deeptabular models, with the exception of the TabPerceiver. Self-Supervised pre-training can be used via two methods or routines which we refer as: encoder-decoder method and constrastive-denoising method. Please, see the documentation and the examples for details on this functionality, and all other options in the library.

Text and Images

For the text component, deeptext, the library offers the following models:

BasicRNN: a simple RNN 2. AttentiveRNN: a RNN with an attention mechanism based on the Hierarchical Attention Networks for DocumentClassification
StackedAttentiveRNN: a stack of AttentiveRNNs
HFModel: a wrapper around Hugging Face Transfomer-based models. At the moment only models from the families BERT, RoBERTa, DistilBERT, ALBERT and ELECTRA are supported. This is because this library is designed to address classification and regression tasks and these are the most 'popular' encoder-only models, which have proved to be those that work best for these tasks. If there is demand for other models, they will be included in the future.

For the image component, deepimage, the library supports models from the following families: 'resnet', 'shufflenet', 'resnext', 'wide_resnet', 'regnet', 'densenet', 'mobilenetv3', 'mobilenetv2', 'mnasnet', 'efficientnet' and 'squeezenet'. These are offered via torchvision and wrapped up in the Vision class.

trainer.save(path="model_weights", save_state_dict=True)

# Option 2: save as any other torch model
torch.save(model.state_dict(), "model_weights/wd_model.pt")

# From here in advance, Option 1 or 2 are the same. I assume the user has
# prepared the data and defined the new model components:
# 1. Build the model
model_new = WideDeep(wide=wide, deeptabular=tab_mlp)
model_new.load_state_dict(torch.load("model_weights/wd_model.pt"))

# 2. Instantiate the trainer
trainer_new = Trainer(model_new, objective="binary")

# 3. Either start the fit or directly predict
preds = trainer_new.predict(X_wide=X_wide, X_tab=X_tab, batch_size=32)

Of course, one can do much more. See the Examples folder, the documentation or the companion posts for a better understanding of the content of the package and its functionalities.

How to Contribute

Check CONTRIBUTING page.

Acknowledgments

This library takes from a series of other libraries, so I think it is just fair to mention them here in the README (specific mentions are also included in the code).

The Callbacks and Initializers structure and code is inspired by the torchsample library, which in itself partially inspired by Keras.

The TextProcessor class in this library uses the fastai's Tokenizer and Vocab. The code at utils.fastai_transforms is a minor adaptation of their code so it functions within this library. To my experience their Tokenizer is the best in class.

The ImageProcessor class in this library uses code from the fantastic Deep Learning for Computer Vision (DL4CV) book by Adrian Rosebrock.
