keras-vis is a high-level toolkit for visualizing and debugging your trained keras neural net models. Currently supported visualizations include:
- Activation maximization
- Saliency maps
- Class activation maps
All visualizations by default support N-dimensional image inputs. i.e., it generalizes to N-dim image inputs to your model.
The toolkit generalizes all of the above as energy minimization problems with a clean, easy to use, and extendable interface. Compatible with both theano and tensorflow backends with 'channels_first', 'channels_last' data format.

In image backprop problems, the goal is to generate an input image that minimizes some loss function. Setting up an image backprop problem is easy.
Define weighted loss function
Various useful loss functions are defined in losses. A custom loss function can be defined by implementing Loss.build_loss.
from vis.losses import ActivationMaximization
from vis.regularizers import TotalVariation, LPNorm
filter_indices = [1, 2, 3]
# Tuple consists of (loss_function, weight)
# Add regularizers as needed.
losses = [
(ActivationMaximization(keras_layer, filter_indices), 1),
(LPNorm(model.input), 10),
(TotalVariation(model.input), 10)
]Configure optimizer to minimize weighted loss
In order to generate natural looking images, image search space is constrained using regularization penalties. Some common regularizers are defined in regularizers. Like loss functions, custom regularizer can be defined by implementing Loss.build_loss.
from vis.optimizer import Optimizer
optimizer = Optimizer(model.input, losses)
opt_img, grads, _ = optimizer.minimize()Concrete examples of various supported visualizations can be found in examples folder.

Neural nets are black boxes. In the recent years, several approaches for understanding and visualizing Convolutional Networks have been developed in the literature. They give us a way to peer into the black boxes, diagnose mis-classifications, and assess whether the network is over/under fitting.
Guided backprop can also be used to create trippy art, neural/texture style transfer among the list of other growing applications.
Various visualizations, documented in their own pages, are summarized here.
Convolutional filters learn 'template matching' filters that maximize the output when a similar template pattern is found in the input image. Visualize those templates via Activation Maximization.
How can we assess whether a network is over/under fitting or generalizing well?
How can we assess whether a network is attending to correct parts of the image in order to generate a decision?
It is possible to generate an animated gif of optimization progress by leveraging callbacks. Following example shows how to visualize the activation maximization for 'ouzel' class (output_index: 20).
from keras.applications import VGG16
from vis.losses import ActivationMaximization
from vis.regularizers import TotalVariation, LPNorm
from vis.input_modifiers import Jitter
from vis.optimizer import Optimizer
from vis.callbacks import GifGenerator
# Build the VGG16 network with ImageNet weights
model = VGG16(weights='imagenet', include_top=True)
print('Model loaded.')
# The name of the layer we want to visualize
# (see model definition in vggnet.py)
layer_name = 'predictions'
layer_dict = dict([(layer.name, layer) for layer in model.layers[1:]])
output_class = [20]
losses = [
(ActivationMaximization(layer_dict[layer_name], output_class), 2),
(LPNorm(model.input), 10),
(TotalVariation(model.input), 10)
]
opt = Optimizer(model.input, losses)
opt.minimize(max_iter=500, verbose=True, input_modifiers=[Jitter()], callbacks=[GifGenerator('opt_progress')])Notice how the output jitters around? This is because we used Jitter, a kind of ImageModifier that is known to produce crisper activation maximization images. As an exercise, try:
- Without Jitter
- Varying various loss weights
