OCR backpropagation learning problem

Postby 007vesper007 » Mon Aug 26, 2013 9:22 am

Hi!
I want to perform OCR with Aforge.Net. For now I'm trying figure it out on two letters (A&B). Size of each letter is 16*8. Here is my code:

Code: Select all
double[][] Input = {
                new[] {0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,
1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,
1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,
1.0,1.0,1,0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0}, //pattern for letter A

            new[] {1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,
1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,
1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,
1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0} //pattern for letter B
                            };

        //double[][] Input = { new[] { 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 }, new[] { 1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 } };
        double[][] Ideal = { new[] { 1.0, 0.0, 1.0 }, new[] { 0.0, 1.0, 0.0 } };

        AForge.Neuro.ActivationNetwork network = new AForge.Neuro.ActivationNetwork(new AForge.Neuro.BipolarSigmoidFunction(),128,3);
        network.Randomize();
        AForge.Neuro.Learning.BackPropagationLearning learning = new AForge.Neuro.Learning.BackPropagationLearning(network);

        learning.LearningRate = 0.5;

        bool needToStop = false;
        int iteration = 0;
        while (!needToStop)
        {
            double error = learning.RunEpoch(Input, Ideal);
            if (error == 0)
                break;
            else if (iteration < 1000)
                iteration++;
            else
                needToStop = true;
            System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("{0} {1}", error, iteration);
        }

        double[] sample ={
                       1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,
0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,
1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.0};

        //double[] sample = { 1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 };

        foreach (double d in network.Compute(sample))
            MessageBox.Show(d.ToString());


As output vale I get wrong result. For example: If I train the network to return 1.0, 0.0, 1.0 if input is pattern for letter A, and I copy-paste that same pattern to sample so I could test my network, The result shows 0 three times. But if I comment the input, ideal and sample and uncomment other input, ideal and sample (and change number 128 to 5 network initalization line) everything works fine. I can't figure out what is the problem. I appreciate any help you can provide.

Some things are Harcoded because I'm just playing with this.
