Implements a continuous normalizing flow X->Y defined via an ODE.

Inherits From: Bijector

tfp.bijectors.FFJORD(
    state_time_derivative_fn, ode_solve_fn=None,
    trace_augmentation_fn=trace_jacobian_hutchinson, initial_time=0.0,
    final_time=1.0, validate_args=False, dtype=tf.float32, name='ffjord'
)

This bijector implements a continuous dynamics transformation parameterized by a differential equation, where initial and terminal conditions correspond to domain (X) and image (Y) i.e.

d/dt[state(t)]=state_time_derivative_fn(t, state(t))
state(initial_time) = X
state(final_time) = Y

For this transformation the value of log_det_jacobian follows another differential equation, reducing it to computation of the trace of the jacbian along the trajectory

state_time_derivative = state_time_derivative_fn(t, state(t))
d/dt[log_det_jac(t)] = Tr(jacobian(state_time_derivative, state(t)))

FFJORD constructor takes two functions ode_solve_fn and trace_augmentation_fn arguments that customize integration of the differential equation and trace estimation.

Differential equation integration is performed by a call to ode_solve_fn. Custom ode_solve_fn must accept the following arguments:

• ode_fn(time, state): Differential equation to be solved.
• initial_time: Scalar float or floating Tensor representing the initial time.
• initial_state: Floating Tensor representing the initial state.
• solution_times: 1D floating Tensor of solution times.

And return a Tensor of shape [solution_times.shape, initial_state.shape] representing state values evaluated at solution_times. In addition ode_solve_fn must support nested structures. For more details see the interface of tfp.math.ode.Solver.solve().

Trace estimation is computed simultaneously with state_time_derivative using augmented_state_time_derivative_fn that is generated by trace_augmentation_fn. trace_augmentation_fn takes state_time_derivative_fn, state.shape and state.dtype arguments and returns a augmented_state_time_derivative_fn callable that computes both state_time_derivative and unreduced trace_estimation.

Custom ode_solve_fn and trace_augmentation_fn examples:

# custom_solver_fn: `callable(f, t_initial, t_solutions, y_initial, ...)`
# custom_solver_kwargs: Additional arguments to pass to custom_solver_fn.
def ode_solve_fn(ode_fn, initial_time, initial_state, solution_times):
  results = custom_solver_fn(ode_fn, initial_time, solution_times,
                             initial_state, **custom_solver_kwargs)
  return results

ffjord = tfb.FFJORD(state_time_derivative_fn, ode_solve_fn=ode_solve_fn)

# state_time_derivative_fn: `callable(time, state)`
# trace_jac_fn: `callable(time, state)` unreduced jacobian trace function

def trace_augmentation_fn(ode_fn, state_shape, state_dtype):
  def augmented_ode_fn(time, state):
    return ode_fn(time, state), trace_jac_fn(time, state)
  return augmented_ode_fn

ffjord = tfb.FFJORD(state_time_derivative_fn,
                    trace_augmentation_fn=trace_augmentation_fn)

For more details on FFJORD and continous normalizing flows see [1], [2].

Usage example:

tfd = tfp.distributions
tfb = tfp.bijectors
# state_time_derivative_fn: `Callable(time, state)` -> state_time_derivative
# e.g. Neural network with inputs and outputs of the same shapes and dtypes.

bijector = tfb.FFJORD(state_time_derivative_fn=state_time_derivative_fn)
y = bijector.forward(x)  # forward mapping
x = bijector.inverse(y)  # inverse mapping
base = tfd.Normal(tf.zeros_like(x), tf.ones_like(x))  # Base distribution
transformed_distribution = tfd.TransformedDistribution(base, bijector)

Methods

copy

View source

copy(
    **override_parameters_kwargs
)

Creates a copy of the bijector.

experimental_batch_shape

View source

experimental_batch_shape(
    x_event_ndims=None, y_event_ndims=None
)

Returns the batch shape of this bijector for inputs of the given rank.

The batch shape of a bijector decribes the set of distinct transformations it represents on events of a given size. For example: the bijector tfb.Scale([1., 2.]) has batch shape [2] for scalar events (event_ndims = 0), because applying it to a scalar event produces two scalar outputs, the result of two different scaling transformations. The same bijector has batch shape [] for vector events, because applying it to a vector produces (via elementwise multiplication) a single vector output.

Bijectors that operate independently on multiple state parts, such as tfb.JointMap, must broadcast to a coherent batch shape. Some events may not be valid: for example, the bijector tfd.JointMap([tfb.Scale([1., 2.]), tfb.Scale([1., 2., 3.])]) does not produce a valid batch shape when event_ndims = [0, 0], since the batch shapes of the two parts are inconsistent. The same bijector does define valid batch shapes of [], [2], and [3] if event_ndims is [1, 1], [0, 1], or [1, 0], respectively.

Since transforming a single event produces a scalar log-det-Jacobian, the batch shape of a bijector with non-constant Jacobian is expected to equal the shape of forward_log_det_jacobian(x, event_ndims=x_event_ndims) or inverse_log_det_jacobian(y, event_ndims=y_event_ndims), for x or y of the specified ndims.

)

Applies or composes the Bijector, depending on input type.

This is a convenience function which applies the Bijector instance in three different ways, depending on the input:

1. If the input is a tfd.Distribution instance, return tfd.TransformedDistribution(distribution=input, bijector=self).
2. If the input is a tfb.Bijector instance, return tfb.Chain([self, input]).
3. Otherwise, return self.forward(input)

Examples

sigmoid = tfb.Reciprocal()(
    tfb.Shift(shift=1.)(
      tfb.Exp()(
        tfb.Scale(scale=-1.))))
# ==> `tfb.Chain([
#         tfb.Reciprocal(),
#         tfb.Shift(shift=1.),
#         tfb.Exp(),
#         tfb.Scale(scale=-1.),
#      ])`  # ie, `tfb.Sigmoid()`

log_normal = tfb.Exp()(tfd.Normal(0, 1))
# ==> `tfd.TransformedDistribution(tfd.Normal(0, 1), tfb.Exp())`

tfb.Exp()([-1., 0., 1.])
