Tensorflow CNN model not training? Constant loss and accuracy

Question

I have built a model using this as a base.

And the train portion from this code .

This model does not train and always gives the cost/loss output for every iteration.

I dont think it learns anything.

I have checked for the usual stuff like shuffled inputs. Making sure that each batch is new.

Any idea why ?

This is my code.

Output

Iter 1280, Minibatch Loss= 4.615120, Training Accuracy= 0.03125
Testing Accuracy: 0.0

Answer 1

The code you started from is just a benchmark of the forward and backward pass and isn't designed to do training. You should start from an example that actually trains a model instead and ignore the benchmark code.

You might have an easier time starting from a completely working training example program instead of trying to combine two pieces.
