In this chapter, we propose an alternative approach which instead relies on a single 2D convolutional neural network across both sequences. Each layer of our network re-codes source tokens on the basis of the output sequence produced so far. Attention-like properties are therefore pervasive throughout the network.

Here, we will focus on creating the sequential network with specific pooling from the values included in dataset. This process is also best applied in “Image Recognition Module”.

Following steps are used to create a sequence processing model with convents using PyTorch −

Step 1

Import the necessary modules for performance of sequence processing using convents.

import keras 
from keras.datasets import mnist 
from keras.models import Sequential 
from keras.layers import Dense, Dropout, Flatten 
from keras.layers import Conv2D, MaxPooling2D 
import numpy as np

Step 2

Perform the necessary operations to create a pattern in respective sequence using the below code −

batch_size = 128 
num_classes = 10 
epochs = 12
# input image dimensions 
img_rows, img_cols = 28, 28
# the data, split between train and test sets 
(x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = mnist.load_data()
x_train = x_train.reshape(60000,28,28,1) 
x_test = x_test.reshape(10000,28,28,1)
print(''x_train shape:'', x_train.shape) 
print(x_train.shape[0], ''train samples'') 
print(x_test.shape[0], ''test samples'')
y_train = keras.utils.to_categorical(y_train, num_classes) 
y_test = keras.utils.to_categorical(y_test, num_classes)

Step 3

Compile the model and fit the pattern in the mentioned conventional neural network model as shown below −

model.compile(loss = 
keras.losses.categorical_crossentropy, 
optimizer = keras.optimizers.Adadelta(), metrics = 
[''accuracy''])
model.fit(x_train, y_train, 
batch_size = batch_size, epochs = epochs, 
verbose = 1, validation_data = (x_test, y_test)) 
score = model.evaluate(x_test, y_test, verbose = 0) 
print(''Test loss:'', score[0]) 
print(''Test accuracy:'', score[1])

The output generated is as follows −
