什么是ML.NET?

ML.NET是由微软创建,为.NET开发者准备的开源机器学习框架。它是跨平台的,可以在macOS,Linux及Windows上运行。

机器学习管道

ML.NET通过管道(pipeline)方式组合机器学习过程。整个管道分为以下四个部分:

  • Load Data 加载数据
  • Transform Data 转换数据
  • Choose Algorithm 选择算法
  • Train Model 训练模型

示例

建立一个控制台项目。

dotnet new console -o myApp
cd myApp

添加ML.NET类库包。

dotnet add package Microsoft.ML

在工程文件夹下创建一个名为iris-data.txt的文本文件,内容如下:

粘贴下面的代码到Program文件中。

using System;
using Microsoft.ML;
using Microsoft.ML.Runtime.Api;
using Microsoft.ML.Runtime.Data; namespace myApp
{
class Program
{
public class IrisData
{
public float SepalLength;
public float SepalWidth;
public float PetalLength;
public float PetalWidth;
public string Label;
} public class IrisPrediction
{
[ColumnName("PredictedLabel")]
public string PredictedLabels;
} static void Main(string[] args)
{
var mlContext = new MLContext(); string dataPath = "iris-data.txt";
var reader = mlContext.Data.TextReader(new TextLoader.Arguments()
{
Separator = ",",
HasHeader = true,
Column = new[]
{
new TextLoader.Column("SepalLength", DataKind.R4, 0),
new TextLoader.Column("SepalWidth", DataKind.R4, 1),
new TextLoader.Column("PetalLength", DataKind.R4, 2),
new TextLoader.Column("PetalWidth", DataKind.R4, 3),
new TextLoader.Column("Label", DataKind.Text, 4)
}
}); IDataView trainingDataView = reader.Read(new MultiFileSource(dataPath)); var pipeline = mlContext.Transforms.Categorical.MapValueToKey("Label")
.Append(mlContext.Transforms.Concatenate("Features", "SepalLength", "SepalWidth", "PetalLength", "PetalWidth"))
.Append(mlContext.MulticlassClassification.Trainers.StochasticDualCoordinateAscent(label: "Label", features: "Features"))
.Append(mlContext.Transforms.Conversion.MapKeyToValue("PredictedLabel")); var model = pipeline.Fit(trainingDataView); var prediction = model.MakePredictionFunction<IrisData, IrisPrediction>(mlContext).Predict(
new IrisData()
{
SepalLength = 3.3f,
SepalWidth = 1.6f,
PetalLength = 0.2f,
PetalWidth = 5.1f,
}); Console.WriteLine($"Predicted flower type is: {prediction.PredictedLabels}");
}
}
}

通过dotnet run命令运行程序后可得到预测结果。

Predicted flower type is: Iris-virginica

解例

例子中定义了两个类,IrisData与IrisPrediction。IrisData类是用于训练的数据结构,而IrisPrediction则用于预测。

MLContext类用于定义ML.NET的上下文(context),可以理解为是它的运行时环境。

接着,创建一个TextReader,用于读取数据集文件,可以看到其中规定了读取的格式。这里即是机器学习管道的第一步。

第二步,转换IrisData类中Label属性的类型,使之成为数值类型,因为只有数值类型的数据才能在模型训练中被使用。再将SepalLength,SepalWidth,PetalLength与PetalWidth合并为一,统合为数据集的Features。

第三步,为训练选择合适的算法,并传入标签(Label)和特征(Features)。

第四步,训练模型。

完成模型后,就可以用它进行预测了。因为最后预测的结果是字符串类型,所以在上述第三步的操作后有必要加上转换操作,把结果从数值类型再转回字符串类型。
