验证准确性并未提高 CNN

Question

I am fairly new to deep learning and right now am trying to predict consumer choices based on EEG data. The total dataset consists of 1045 EEG recordings each with a corresponding label, indicating Like or Dislike for a product. Classes are distributed as follows (44% Likes and 56% Dislikes). I read that Convolutional Neural Networks are suitable to work with raw EEG data so I tried to implement a.network based on keras with the following structure:

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(full_data, target, test_size=0.20, random_state=42)

y_train = np.asarray(y_train).astype('float32').reshape((-1,1))
y_test = np.asarray(y_test).astype('float32').reshape((-1,1))


# X_train.shape = ((836, 512, 14))
# y_train.shape = ((836, 1))

from keras.optimizers import Adam
from keras.optimizers import SGD
from keras.layers import MaxPooling1D
model = Sequential()

model.add(Conv1D(16, kernel_size=3, activation="relu", input_shape=(512,14)))

model.add(MaxPooling1D())

model.add(Conv1D(8, kernel_size=3, activation="relu"))

model.add(MaxPooling1D())

model.add(Flatten())

model.add(Dense(1, activation="sigmoid"))

model.compile(optimizer=Adam(lr = 0.001), loss='binary_crossentropy', metrics=['accuracy'])

model.fit(X_train, y_train, validation_data=(X_test, y_test), epochs=20, batch_size = 64)

When I fit the model however the validation accuracy does not change at all with the following output:

Thanks in advance for any insights!

Answer 1

The phenomenon you run into is called underfitting . This happens when the amount our quality of your training data is insufficient, or your.network architecture is too small and not capable to learn the problem.

Try normalizing your input data and experiment with different.network architectures, learning rates and activation functions.

As @Muhammad Shahzad stated in his comment, adding some Dense Layers after flatting would be a concrete architecture adaption you should try.

Answer 2

You can also increase the epoch and must increase the data set. And you also can use-

train_datagen= ImageDataGenerator(
        rescale=1./255,
        shear_range=0.2,
        zoom_range=0.2,
        horizontal_flip=True,
        vertical_flip = True,
        channel_shift_range=0.2,
        fill_mode='nearest'
        )

for feeding the model more data and I hope you can increase the validation_accuracy.
