Cannot generate heatmaps using Gradcam library

[jeev0306]

import numpy as np import tensorflow as tf from tf_explain.core.grad_cam import GradCAM import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

Initialize Grad-CAM explainer

explainer = GradCAM()

Specify the layer for Grad-CAM in the VGG16 model (vgg16_tr)

conv_layer_name = 'block5_conv2' # Adjusted to use 'block5_conv2'

Get a batch from the validation generator

X_val, y_val = val_generator.getitem(0)

Process each image in the batch

for i in range(len(X_val)):

Add batch dimension to match the expected input shape for Grad-CAM

image_to_explain = np.expand_dims(X_val[i], axis=0)  # Shape: (1, 128, 128, 3)
label_to_explain = np.expand_dims(y_val[i], axis=0)  # Shape: (1, num_classes)
true_class = np.argmax(y_val[i])  # Get the true class index from the label

# Ensure the image is passed as a tf.Tensor (not a NumPy array)
image_to_explain = tf.convert_to_tensor(image_to_explain, dtype=tf.float32)

# Generate the Grad-CAM heatmap
heatmap = explainer.explain(
    validation_data=(image_to_explain, label_to_explain),  # Pass the single image and its label
    model=vgg16_tr,
    class_index=true_class,
    layer_name=conv_layer_name
)

# Plot the original image and Grad-CAM heatmap
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 2, figsize=(10, 5))

# Original image
ax[0].imshow(X_val[i])
ax[0].set_title(f'Original Image {i+1}')
ax[0].axis('off')

# Grad-CAM heatmap overlay
ax[1].imshow(X_val[i])  # Show the original image first
ax[1].imshow(heatmap, cmap='jet', alpha=0.3)  # Overlay heatmap with transparency
ax[1].set_title(f'Grad-CAM Heatmap {i+1}')
ax[1].axis('off')

plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()

I'm trying to generate heatmaps using inbuilt GradCam function for the celebA dataset. But I get the below error. I have reviewed the size to the input going to the GradCam it is (1, 128,128,3).

error: When providing inputs as a list/tuple, all values in the list/tuple must be KerasTensors. Received: inputs=[[<KerasTensor shape=(None, 128, 128, 3), dtype=float32, sparse=None, name=keras_tensor>]] including invalid value [<KerasTensor shape=(None, 128, 128, 3), dtype=float32, sparse=None, name=keras_tensor>] of type <class 'list'>

If anyone could help me debug this, it would be much appriciated.

This looks like you're using an old version of Keras 3, from before the time when we supported nested model inputs.

Hi @jeev0306, Thanks for reporting the issue. Could you please share the version of Keras you are using and also dummy dataset to reproduce this issue?
