# Basic Image Classification

## Intro

The fastai library simplifies training fast and accurate neural nets using modern best practices. See the fastai website to get started. The library is based on research into deep learning best practices undertaken at `fast.ai`, and includes “out of the box” support for `vision`, `text`, `tabular`, and `collab` (collaborative filtering) models.

## Image data

Image dataset can be downloaded and extracted directly via the following function:

    URLs_PETS()

Later, we need to specify image folders and build a data loader object:

    path = 'oxford-iiit-pet'
    path_anno = 'oxford-iiit-pet/annotations'
    path_img = 'oxford-iiit-pet/images'
    fnames = get_image_files(path_img)

## Dataloader

Data loader is one of the most important parts of the image classification part. Because here we apply different image transformations which can drastically improve the accuracy of the model.

    dls = ImageDataLoaders_from_name_re(
      path, fnames, pat='(.+)_\\d+.jpg$',
      item_tfms = RandomResizedCrop(460, min_scale=0.75), bs = 10,
      batch_tfms = list(aug_transforms(size = 299, max_warp = 0),
                      Normalize_from_stats( imagenet_stats() )
      ),
      device = 'cuda'
    )

See batch:

    dls %>% show_batch()

## ResNet50

Let’s load a pretrained ResNet50 model and construct a `cnn_learner`:

    learn = cnn_learner(dls, resnet50(), metrics = error_rate)

## Fit

It is time to fit the ResNet model:

    learn %>% fit_one_cycle(n_epoch = 8)

    epoch     train_loss  valid_loss  error_rate  time
    0         0.741927    0.342162    0.103518    01:15
    1         0.713688    0.286085    0.100812    01:15
    2         0.594913    0.282628    0.088633    01:15
    3         0.441623    0.263180    0.085250    01:18
    4         0.354634    0.230228    0.077808    01:17
    5         0.200607    0.224293    0.071719    01:15
    6         0.154269    0.213939    0.062246    01:16
    7         0.127354    0.211825    0.064953    01:16

Unfreeze the blocks and train again:

    learn$unfreeze()

    learn %>% fit_one_cycle(3, lr_max = slice(1e-6,1e-4))

    epoch     train_loss  valid_loss  error_rate  time
    0         0.162769    0.204167    0.061570    01:42
    1         0.168877    0.211312    0.071042    01:42
    2         0.178176    0.202088    0.062923    01:43

Extraction of most confused:

    interp = ClassificationInterpretation_from_learner(learn)
    interp %>% most_confused()

## Conclusion

And get predictions on new data. For this purpose, specify the name of the files:

    fls = list.files(paste(path,'images',sep = '/'),full.names = TRUE, recursive = TRUE)[c(250,500,700)]
    fls

    #[1] "oxford-iiit-pet/images/american_bulldog_142.jpg"          "oxford-iiit-pet/images/american_pit_bull_terrier_188.jpg"
    #[3] "oxford-iiit-pet/images/basset_hound_188.jpg"

    result = learn %>% predict(fls)
