Keras Transfer-Learning 设置 layers.trainable 为 True 没有效果

Question

I want to f.netune efficien.net using tf.keras (tensorflow 2.3) but i cannot change the training status of layers properly. My model looks like this:

data_augmentation_layers = tf.keras.Sequential([
 keras.layers.experimental.preprocessing.RandomFlip("horizontal_and_vertical"),
 keras.layers.experimental.preprocessing.RandomRotation(0.8)])

efficientnet = EfficientNetB3(weights="imagenet", include_top=False,
                                input_shape=(*img_size, 3))

#Setting to not trainable as described in the standard keras FAQ
efficientnet.trainable = False

inputs = keras.layers.Input(shape=(*img_size, 3))
augmented = augmentation_layers(inputs)
base = efficientnet(augmented, training=False)
pooling = keras.layers.GlobalAveragePooling2D()(base)
outputs = keras.layers.Dense(5, activation="softmax")(pooling)

model = keras.Model(inputs=inputs, outputs=outputs)

model.compile(loss="categorical_crossentropy", optimizer=keras_opt, metrics=["categorical_accuracy"])

This is done so that my random weights on the custom top wont destroy the weights asap.

    Model: "functional_1"
_________________________________________________________________

=================================================================
Total params: 10,791,220
Trainable params: 7,685
Non-trainable params: 10,783,535

Everything seems to work until this point. I train my model for 2 epochs and then i want to start fine-tuning the efficien.net base. Thus i call

for l in model.get_layer("efficientnetb3").layers:
  if not isinstance(l, keras.layers.BatchNormalization):
    l.trainable = True

model.compile(loss="categorical_crossentropy", optimizer=keras_opt, metrics=["categorical_accuracy"])

I recompiled and print the summary again to see that the number of non-trainable weights remained the same. Also fitting does not bring better results that keeping frozen.

 dense (Dense)                (None, 5)                 7685      
    =================================================================
    Total params: 10,791,220
    Trainable params: 7,685
    Non-trainable params: 10,783,535

Ps: I also tried efficien.net3.trainable = True but this also had no effect.

Could it be that it has something to do with the fact that i'm using a sequential and a functional model at the same time?

Answer 1

For me the problem was using sequential API for part of the model. When I change to sequential, my model.sumary() displayed all the sublayers and it was possible to set some of them as trainable and others not.
