dropout layer before the final dense layer. The function accepts a dropout_rate parameter that specifies
the rate of dropout:
python
import tensorflow as tf
"""
Adds a dropout layer before the final dense layer of a pretrained model.
Args:
Returns:
- tf.keras.Model: A new model with a dropout layer before the final dense layer.
"""
# Get the output of the last layer before the final dense layer
x = Dropout(dropout_rate)(x)
output = pretrained_model.layers[-1](x)
### Explanation:
1. *Input Arguments*:
- pretrained_model: The pretrained model to which you want to add a dropout layer.
2. *Process*:
- The function accesses the second-to-last layer (pretrained_model.layers[-2]) assuming this is just
before the final dense layer.
- A dropout layer with the specified rate is added before passing the output to the final layer.
3. *Output*:
- The function returns a new model with the dropout layer applied before the final dense layer.
If you have a pretrained model like VGG16, you can use the function as follows:
python
# Load the pretrained VGG16 model (without the top classifier layer)
# Add dropout before the final dense layer with a rate of 0.3
model_with_dropout.summary()
This will show the new architecture with the dropout layer added before the final classification layer.
[7:38 AM, 2/11/2025] Munira: Here's a Python function that modifies a pretrained ResNet50 model for a
multi-class classification task. It freezes all layers of the ResNet model, adds a global average pooling
layer, and a dense layer with a softmax activation function for classification:
python
import tensorflow as tf
def modify_resnet50_for_multiclass_classification(num_classes):
"""
Freezes all layers of the ResNet50 model and adds a global average pooling layer
[7:40 AM, 2/11/2025] Munira: Here's the Python code that assumes you have a pretrained
*MobileNetV2* model stored in the variable model. This code will unfreeze the last 10 layers, compile
the model with the *Adam optimizer* and *categorical crossentropy loss*, and prepare it for training:
python
import tensorflow as tf
layer.trainable = True
layer.trainable = False
# Compile the model with the Adam optimizer and categorical crossentropy loss
model.compile(optimizer='adam',
loss='categorical_crossentropy',
metrics=['accuracy'])
# Prepare the model for training (you can now start training with model.fit())
model.summary()
### Explanation:
- model.layers[-10:] refers to the last 10 layers of the model. By setting layer.trainable = True for these
layers, we allow them to be updated during training.
- model.layers[:-10] refers to all layers except the last 10. We set layer.trainable = False for these layers
so that their weights do not get updated during training.
- The model is compiled using the *Adam optimizer*, which is a popular choice for training deep
learning models.
- *Categorical crossentropy* is used as the loss function because this is typically used for multi-class
classification problems.
This setup is commonly used when you want to fine-tune the model by training the last few layers while
keeping the rest of the pretrained layers fixed.
