This layer implements the Bayesian variational inference analogue to a Convolution layer by assuming the kernel and/or the bias are drawn from distributions. By default, the layer implements a stochastic forward pass via sampling from the kernel and bias posteriors,

kernel, bias ~ posterior
outputs = matmul(inputs, kernel) + bias

It uses the reparameterization estimator [(Kingma and Welling, 2014)][1], which performs a Monte Carlo approximation of the distribution integrating over the kernel and bias.

The arguments permit separate specification of the surrogate posterior (q(W|x)), prior (p(W)), and divergence for both the kernel and bias distributions.

Upon being built, this layer adds losses (accessible via the losses property) representing the divergences of kernel and/or bias surrogate posteriors and their respective priors. When doing minibatch stochastic optimization, make sure to scale this loss such that it is applied just once per epoch (e.g. if kl is the sum of losses for each element of the batch, you should pass kl / num_examples_per_epoch to your optimizer).

You can access the kernel and/or bias posterior and prior distributions after the layer is built via the kernel_posterior, kernel_prior, bias_posterior and bias_prior properties.

This V2 version supports alternative batch semantics. V1 layers, with batch size B produced outputs of shape [N, H, W, B, C] (where N, H, W, C are minibatch size, height, width and number of channels, as usual). V2 layers reorder these to [N, B, H, W, C].

Examples

We illustrate a Bayesian neural network with variational inference, assuming a dataset of images and length-10 one-hot targets.

  nll = -tf.reduce_mean(bnn(x).log_prob(y), axis=-1)
  kl = bnn.extra_loss  # Already normalized via `penalty_weight` arg.
  loss = nll + kl
  return loss, (nll, kl)

This example uses reparameterization gradients to minimize the Kullback-Leibler divergence up to a constant, also known as the negative Evidence Lower Bound. It consists of the sum of two terms: the expected negative log-likelihood, which we approximate via Monte Carlo; and the KL divergence, which is added via regularizer terms which are arguments to the layer.

Args
`input_size`	... In Keras, this argument is inferred from the rightmost input shape, i.e., `tf.shape(inputs)[-1]`. This argument specifies the size of the second from the rightmost dimension of both `inputs` and `kernel`. Default value: `None`.
`output_size`	... In Keras, this argument is called `filters`. This argument specifies the rightmost dimension size of both `kernel` and `bias`.
`filter_shape`	... In Keras, this argument is called `kernel_size`. This argument specifies the leftmost `rank` dimensions' sizes of `kernel`.
`rank`	An integer, the rank of the convolution, e.g. "2" for 2D convolution. This argument implies the number of `kernel` dimensions, i.e., `kernel.shape.rank == rank + 2`. In Keras, this argument has the same name and semantics. Default value: `2`.
`strides`	An integer or tuple/list of n integers, specifying the stride length of the convolution. In Keras, this argument has the same name and semantics. Default value: `1`.
`padding`	One of `"VALID"` or `"SAME"` (case-insensitive). In Keras, this argument has the same name and semantics (except we don't support `"CAUSAL"`). Default value: `'VALID'`.
`dilations`	An integer or tuple/list of `rank` integers, specifying the dilation rate to use for dilated convolution. Currently, specifying any `dilations` value != 1 is incompatible with specifying any `strides` value != 1. In Keras, this argument is called `dilation_rate`. Default value: `1`.
`kernel_initializer`	... Default value: `None` (i.e., `tfp.experimental.nn.initializers.glorot_uniform()`).
`bias_initializer`	... Default value: `None` (i.e., `tf.initializers.zeros()`).

`unpack_weights_fn`	Default value: `unpack_kernel_and_bias`
`dtype`	... Default value: `tf.float32`.
`index_dtype`	...
`activation_fn`	... Default value: `None`.
`seed`	... Default value: `None` (i.e., no seed).
`validate_args`	...
`name`	... Default value: `None` (i.e., `'ConvolutionVariationalReparameterizationV2'`).
