Running Locally

Clone or download this repository:

git clone [email protected]:poloclub/cnn-explainer.git

# use degit if you don't want to download commit histories
degit poloclub/cnn-explainer

Install the dependencies:

npm install

Then run CNN Explainer:

npm run dev

Navigate to localhost:5000. You should see CNN Explainer running in your broswer :)

To see how we trained the CNN, visit the directory ./tiny-vgg/. If you want to use CNN Explainer with your own CNN model or image classes, see #8 and #14.

  • detail view not work with new added convolution nodes

    detail view not work with new added convolution nodes

    Hallo @xiaohk, thank you very much for your reply, it is very helpful. I now fixed several problems I have met, for example the detail view of existing convolution nodes now are displayed with their former nodes and bais normally. But I still cant make new added convolution nodes show their detail view animation. 屏幕截图 2021-12-06 171833

    and here are the codes I changed:

    const layerIndexDict = { 'input': 0, 'conv_1_1': 1, 'relu_1_1': 2, 'conv_1_2': 3, 'relu_1_2': 4, 'max_pool_1': 5, 'conv_2_1': 6, 'relu_2_1': 7, 'conv_2_2': 8, 'relu_2_2': 9, 'max_pool_2': 10, 'conv_3_1': 11, 'relu_3_1': 12, 'conv_3_2': 13, 'relu_3_2': 14, 'max_pool_3': 15, 'output': 16 }

    const layerLegendDict = { 0: {local: 'input-legend', module: 'input-legend', global: 'input-legend'}, 1: {local: 'local-legend-0-1', module: 'module-legend-0', global: 'global-legend'}, 2: {local: 'local-legend-0-1', module: 'module-legend-0', global: 'global-legend'}, 3: {local: 'local-legend-0-2', module: 'module-legend-0', global: 'global-legend'}, 4: {local: 'local-legend-0-2', module: 'module-legend-0', global: 'global-legend'}, 5: {local: 'local-legend-0-2', module: 'module-legend-0', global: 'global-legend'}, 6: {local: 'local-legend-1-1', module: 'module-legend-1', global: 'global-legend'}, 7: {local: 'local-legend-1-1', module: 'module-legend-1', global: 'global-legend'}, 8: {local: 'local-legend-1-2', module: 'module-legend-1', global: 'global-legend'}, 9: {local: 'local-legend-1-2', module: 'module-legend-1', global: 'global-legend'}, 10: {local: 'local-legend-1-2', module: 'module-legend-1', global: 'global-legend'}, 11: {local: 'local-legend-2-1', module: 'module-legend-2', global: 'global-legend'}, 12: {local: 'local-legend-2-1', module: 'module-legend-2', global: 'global-legend'}, 13: {local: 'local-legend-2-2', module: 'module-legend-2', global: 'global-legend'}, 14: {local: 'local-legend-2-2', module: 'module-legend-2', global: 'global-legend'}, 15: {local: 'local-legend-2-2', module: 'module-legend-2', global: 'global-legend'}, 16: {local: 'output-legend', module: 'output-legend', global: 'output-legend'} } // I'm not sure if I did right here

    let updatingLayerIndexDict = { local: { module: [1, 2, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15], global: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15] }, module: { local: [1, 2, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15], global: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15] }, global: { local: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15], module: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] } }; // about this part I dont really understand how this works and how can people change it to adjust to another model

    and I have a question about the following part:

    let detailedViewAbsCoords = { 1 : [600, 270, 490, 290], 2 : [500, 270, 490, 290], 3 : [700, 270, 490, 290], 4 : [600, 270, 490, 290], 5 : [650, 270, 490, 290], 6 : [775, 270, 490, 290], 7 : [100, 270, 490, 290], 8 : [60, 270, 490, 290], 9 : [200, 270, 490, 290], 10: [300, 270, 490, 290], } what does this part mean? should I change this part to adjust to my model? and how?

  • Error in running tiny-vgg.py

    Error in running tiny-vgg.py

    Hi,

    I ran the tiny-vgg.py following the conda env (supposedly all dependencies are installed), and I got error like below. ValueError: Input 0 of layer sequential is incompatible with the layer: its rank is undefined, but the layer requires a defined rank. I'm seeking your thoughts on what is going on. No one else seems have this issue. Thanks for your time answering this.

    How to display images on git pages with cnn explainer

    I am training on tiny-vgg using a plant image dataset and am trying to display it in browser in cnn-explainer. I could run npm run dev command and see it in my local environment, but when I run npm run build command and try to view it on github pages it doesn't work. Only the layer part of the neural network is not displayed. What should i do? Please tell me how to solve it. https://nikamasa51-d4c7cc0837.drafts.github.io/Study_CNN_Explainer/

  • Whether is possible to customize the CNN-Explainer

    Whether is possible to customize the CNN-Explainer

    Hi.

    Thank you for sharing this excellent work. The explainer is super helpful for understanding the CNN. Since I am not familiar with the TF.js. I wonder if I finetune the tiny-VGG on other datasets for example dog vs cat, will explainer automatically change to show how the CNN works on dog vs cat? Or I have to rewrite the part of the js to make it works. Thank you.

    Hi! First of all I really do appreciate you and your team hard work! But, a problem occurred in my browser, Well the rest of the page is working smoothly, Unfortunately the explainer wouldn't show up.. is there anything that I could do? I've also try to open it locally, but still the problem occurred :( image image

    ReLu function max(0,a) gives 0

    Using Ladybug pic as an example, the ReLU function after the top one layer (orange colour) gives 0 when the max value is not zero. For example, I got max(0,0.64)=0. Should it be 0.64? Thank you.

    Layout messed up

    Hello,

    Kudos to this awesome project!!! I love it.

    I just downloaded the repo and I was able to run it locally. But the layout seems completely messed up. It's not as organized as the live demo. I've tried it on Chrome, Safari and Firefox and they all have the same messed layout.

    I wonder if there is a way to get it fixed. Thanks

    Relates #2 and #8: Might it be possible to support loading / introspecting (a subset of) models loaded via ONNX.js? https://github.com/Microsoft/onnxjs

    Curious because we would like to visualize our own PyTorch model / networks.

    I'm assuming that this may be closed as out-of-scope, which is totally fine! Just wanna put it out there ;)
