Standard Function implementations¶
Chainer provides basic Function
implementations in the
chainer.functions
package. Most of them are wrapped by plain Python
functions, which users should use.
Note
As of v1.5, the concept of parameterized functions are gone, and they are
replaced by corresponding Link
implementations. They are
still put in the functions
namespace for backward
compatibility, though it is strongly recommended to use them via the
chainer.links
package.

x
is split into four arrays \(a, i, f, o\) of the same shapes along the second axis. It means thatx
‘s second axis must have 4 times thec_prev
‘s second axis.The split input arrays are corresponding to:
- \(a\) : sources of cell input
- \(i\) : sources of input gate

This is a building block of Neural Tensor Network (see the reference paper below). It takes two input variables and one or four parameters, and outputs one variable.
To be precise, denote six input arrays mathematically by \(e^1\in \mathbb{R}^{I\cdot J}\), \(e^2\in \mathbb{R}^{I\cdot K}\), \(W\in \mathbb{R}^{J \cdot K \cdot L}\), \(V^1\in \mathbb{R}^{J \cdot L}\), \(V^2\in \mathbb{R}^{K \cdot L}\), and \(b\in \mathbb{R}^{L}\), where \(I\) is mini-batch size. In this document, we call \(V^1\), \(V^2\), and \(b\) linear parameters.
The output of forward propagation is calculated as
\[y_{il} = \sum_{jk} e^1_{ij} e^2_{ik} W_{jkl} + \ \sum_{j} e^1_{ij} V^1_{jl} + \sum_{k} e^2_{ik} V^2_{kl} + b_{l}.\]Note that V1, V2, b are optional. If these are not given, then this function omits the last three terms in the above equation.

- Precision: \(\frac{\mathrm{tp}}{\mathrm{tp} + \mathrm{fp}}\)
- Recall: \(\frac{\mathrm{tp}}{\mathrm{tp} + \mathrm{tn}}\)
- F beta Score: The weighted harmonic average of Precision and Recall.
- Support: The number of instances of each ground truth label.
Here,
tp
,fp
, andtn
stand for the number of true positives, false positives, and true negative, respectively.label_num
specifies the number of classes, that is, each value int
must be an integer in the range of[0, label_num)
. Iflabel_num
isNone
, this function regardslabel_num
as a maximum of int
plus one.ignore_label
determines which instances should be ignored. Specifically, instances with the given label are not taken into account for calculating the above quantities. By default, it is set to -1 so that all instances are taken into consideration, as labels are supposed to be non-negative integers. Settingignore_label
to a non-negative integer less thanlabel_num
is illegal and yields undefined behavior. In the current implementation, it arisesRuntimeWarning
andignore_label
-th entries in output arrays do not contain correct quantities.Parameters: - y (Variable) – Variable holding a vector of scores.
- t (Variable) – Variable holding a vector of ground truth labels.
- label_num (int) – The number of classes.

crf1d¶
-
chainer.functions.
crf1d
(cost, xs, ys, reduce='mean')[source]¶ Calculates negative log-likelihood of linear-chain CRF.
It takes a transition cost matrix, a sequence of costs, and a sequence of labels. Let \(c_{st}\) be a transition cost from a label \(s\) to a label \(t\), \(x_{it}\) be a cost of a label \(t\) at position \(i\), and \(y_i\) be an expected label at position \(i\). The negative log-likelihood of linear-chain CRF is defined as
\[L = -\left( \sum_{i=1}^l x_{iy_i} + \ \sum_{i=1}^{l-1} c_{y_i y_{i+1}} - {\log(Z)} \right) ,\]where \(l\) is the length of the input sequence and \(Z\) is the normalizing constant called partition function.
Note
When you want to calculate the negative log-likelihood of sequences which have different lengths, sort the sequences in descending order of lengths and transpose the sequences. For example, you have three input sequences:
>>> a1 = a2 = a3 = a4 = np.random.uniform(-1, 1, 3).astype('f') >>> b1 = b2 = b3 = np.random.uniform(-1, 1, 3).astype('f') >>> c1 = c2 = np.random.uniform(-1, 1, 3).astype('f')
>>> a = [a1, a2, a3, a4] >>> b = [b1, b2, b3] >>> c = [c1, c2]
where
a1
and all other variables are arrays with(K,)
shape. Make a transpose of the sequences:>>> x1 = np.stack([a1, b1, c1]) >>> x2 = np.stack([a2, b2, c2]) >>> x3 = np.stack([a3, b3]) >>> x4 = np.stack([a4])
and make a list of the arrays:
>>> xs = [x1, x2, x3, x4]
You need to make label sequences in the same fashion. And then, call the function:
>>> cost = chainer.Variable( ... np.random.uniform(-1, 1, (3, 3)).astype('f')) >>> ys = [np.zeros(x.shape[0:1], dtype='i') for x in xs] >>> loss = F.crf1d(cost, xs, ys)

In natural language processing, especially language modeling, the number of words in a vocabulary can be very large. Therefore, you need to spend a lot of time calculating the gradient of the embedding matrix.
By using the negative sampling trick you only need to calculate the gradient for a few sampled negative examples.
The objective function is below:
\[f(x, p) = \log \sigma(x^\top w_p) + \ k E_{i \sim P(i)}[\log \sigma(- x^\top w_i)],\]where \(\sigma(\cdot)\) is a sigmoid function, \(w_i\) is the weight vector for the word \(i\), and \(p\) is a positive example. It is approximated with \(k\) examples \(N\) sampled from probability \(P(i)\), like this:
\[f(x, p) \approx \log \sigma(x^\top w_p) + \ \sum_{n \in N} \log \sigma(-x^\top w_n).\]Each sample of \(N\) is drawn from the word distribution \(P(w)\). This is calculated as \(P(w) = \frac{1}{Z} c(w)^\alpha\), where \(c(w)\) is the unigram count of the word \(w\), \(\alpha\) is a hyper-parameter, and \(Z\) is the normalization constant.
Parameters: - x (Variable) – Batch of input vectors.
- t (Variable) – Vector of ground truth labels.

(anchor, positive, negative, margin=0.2, reduce='mean')[source]¶ Computes triplet loss.
It takes a triplet of variables as inputs, \(a\), \(p\) and \(n\): anchor, positive example and negative example respectively. The triplet defines a relative similarity between samples. Let \(N\) and \(K\) denote mini-batch size and the dimension of input variables, respectively. The shape of all input variables should be \((N, K)\).
\[L(a, p, n) = \frac{1}{N} \left( \sum_{i=1}^N \max \{d(a_i, p_i) - d(a_i, n_i) + {\rm margin}, 0\} \right)\]where \(d(x_i, y_i) = \| {\bf x}_i - {\bf y}_i \|_2^2\).
The output is a variable whose value depends on the value of the option
reduce
. If it is'no'
, it holds the elementwise loss values. If it is'mean'
, this function takes a mean of loss values.Parameters: - anchor (Variable) – The anchor example variable. The shape should be \((N, K)\), where \(N\) denotes the minibatch size, and \(K\) denotes the dimension of the anchor.
- positive (Variable) – The positive example variable. The shape should be the same as anchor.
- negative (Variable) – The negative example variable. The shape should be the same as anchor.
- margin (float) – A parameter for triplet loss. It should be a positive value.
- reduce (str) – Reduction option. Its value must be either
'mean'
or'no'
. Otherwise,ValueError
is raised.
Returns: A variable holding a scalar that is the loss value calculated by the above equation. If
reduce
is'no'
, the output variable holds array whose shape is same as one of (hence both of) input variables. If it is'mean'
, the output variable holds a scalar value.Return type: Note
This cost can be used to train triplet networks. See Learning Fine-grained Image Similarity with Deep Ranking for details.

batch_normalization¶
-
chainer.functions.
batch_normalization
(x, gamma, beta, eps=2e-05, running_mean=None, running_var=None, decay=0.9, use_cudnn=True)[source]¶ Batch normalization function.
It takes the input variable
x
and two parameter variablesgamma
andbeta
. The parameter variables must both have the same dimensionality, which is referred to as the channel shape. This channel shape corresponds to the dimensions in the input which are not averaged over. Since the first dimension of the input corresponds to the batch size, the second dimension of x will correspond to the first dimension of the channel shape, the third dimension of x will correspond to the second channel dimension (if it exists) and so on. Therefore, the dimensionality of the input must be at least one plus the number of channel dimensions. The total effective “batch size” will then be considered to be the product of all dimensions in x except for the channel dimensions.As an example, if the input is four dimensional and the parameter variables are one dimensional, then it is assumed that the first dimension of the input is the batch size, the second dimension is the channel size, and the remaining two dimensions are considered to be spatial dimensions that will be averaged over along with the batch size in the batch normalization computations. That is, the total batch size will be considered to be the product of all input dimensions except the second dimension.
Note: If this function is called, it will not be possible to access the updated running mean and variance statistics, because they are members of the function object, which cannot be accessed by the caller. If it is desired to access the updated running statistics, it is necessary to get a new instance of the function object, call the object, and then access the running_mean and/or running_var attributes. See the corresponding Link class for an example of how to do this.
Parameters: - x (Variable) – Input variable.
- gamma (Variable) – Scaling parameter of normalized data.
- beta (Variable) – Shifting parameter of scaled normalized data.
- eps (float) – Epsilon value for numerical stability.
- running_mean (array) – Running average of the mean. This is a
running average of the mean over several mini-batches using
the decay parameter. If
None
, the running average is not computed. If this isNone
, thenrunnng_var
must also beNone
. - running_var (array) – Running average of the variance. This is a
running average of the variance over several mini-batches using
the decay parameter. If
None
, the running average is not computed. If this isNone
, thenrunning_mean
must also beNone
. - decay (float) – Decay rate of moving average. It is used during training.
- use_cudnn (bool) – If
True
and cuDNN is enabled, then this function uses cuDNN as the core implementation.

Utility functions¶
forget¶
-
chainer.functions.
forget
(func, *xs)[source]¶ Call a function without storing internal results.
On a forward propagation Chainer stores all internal results of
Function
on a computational graph as they are required on backward-propagation. These results consume too much memory when the internal results are too large. This method forgets such internal results on forward propagation, and still supports back-propagation with recalculation.In a forward propagation, this method calls a given function with given variables without creating a computational graph. That means, no internal results are stored. In a backward propagation this method calls the given function again to create a computational graph to execute back-propagation.
This method reduces internal memory usage. Instead it requires more calculation time as it calls the function twice.

:>>> x = chainer.Variable(np.random.uniform(-1, 1, 5).astype('f')) >>> y = chainer.Variable(np.random.uniform(-1, 1, 5).astype('f'))
When
z
is calculated asz = f(x, y)
, its internal resultx + y
is stored in memory. Instead if you callf
withforget()
:>>> z = F.forget(f, x, y)
internal
x + y
is forgotten.Note
The method does not support functions behaving randomly, such as
dropout()
andnegative_sampling()
. It is because first results of these function differ from the second one.Parameters: Returns: A variable
func
returns. If it returns a tuple, the method returns a tuple too.Return type:
