I'd like to set up a Keras layer in which each node simply computes the logarithm of the corresponding node in the preceding layer. I see from the Keras documentation that there is a "log" function in its backend module. But somehow I'm not understanding how to use this.
Thanks in advance for any hints you can offer!
You can use any backend function inside a Lambda layer:
from keras.layers import Lambda
import keras.backend as K
Define just any function taking the input tensor:
def logFunc(x):
return K.log(x)
And create a lambda layer with it:
#add to the model the way you're used to:
model.add(Lambda(logFunc,output_shape=(necessaryWithTheano)))
And if the function is already defined, taking only one argument and returning a tensor, you don't need to create your own function, just Lambda(K.log), for instance.
