Bayesian Neural Networks
In this tutorial, we demonstrate how one can implement a Bayesian Neural Network using a combination of Turing and Flux, a suite of machine learning tools. We will use Flux to specify the neural network's layers and Turing to implement the probabilistic inference, with the goal of implementing a classification algorithm.
We will begin with importing the relevant libraries.

using Plots

Our goal here is to use a Bayesian neural network to classify points in an artificial dataset. The code below generates data points arranged in a box-like pattern and displays a graph of the dataset we will be working with.
# Number of points to generate.
N = 80
M = round(Int, N / 4)
Random.seed!(1234)
# Generate artificial data.
x1s = rand(M) * 4.5;
x2s = rand(M) * 4.5;
xt1s = Array([[x1s[i] + 0.5; x2s[i] + 0.5] for i in 1:M])
x1s = rand(M) * 4.5;
x2s = rand(M) * 4.5;
append!(xt1s, Array([[x1s[i] - 5; x2s[i] - 5] for i in 1:M]))
x1s = rand(M) * 4.5;
x2s = rand(M) * 4.5;
xt0s = Array([[x1s[i] + 0.5; x2s[i] - 5] for i in 1:M])
x1s = rand(M) * 4.5;
x2s = rand(M) * 4.5;
append!(xt0s, Array([[x1s[i] - 5; x2s[i] + 0.5] for i in 1:M]))
# Store all the data for later.
xs = [xt1s; xt0s]
ts = [ones(2 * M); zeros(2 * M)]
# Plot data points.
function plot_data()
x1 = map(e -> e[1], xt1s)
y1 = map(e -> e[2], xt1s)
x2 = map(e -> e[1], xt0s)
y2 = map(e -> e[2], xt0s)
Plots.scatter(x1, y1; color="red", clim=(0, 1))
return Plots.scatter!(x2, y2; color="blue", clim=(0, 1))
end
plot_data()
Building a Neural Network
The next step is to define a feedforward neural network where we express our parameters as distributions, and not single points as with traditional neural networks.
For this we will use Dense
to define liner layers and compose them via Chain
, both are neural network primitives from Flux.
The network nn_initial
we created has two hidden layers with tanh
activations and one output layer with sigmoid (σ
) activation, as shown below.
The nn_initial
is an instance that acts as a function and can take data as inputs and output predictions.
We will define distributions on the neural network parameters and use destructure
from Flux to extract the parameters as parameters_initial
.
The function destructure
also returns another function reconstruct
that can take (new) parameters in and return us a neural network instance whose architecture is the same as nn_initial
but with updated parameters.
# Construct a neural network using Flux
nn_initial = Chain(Dense(2, 3, tanh), Dense(3, 2, tanh), Dense(2, 1, σ))
# Extract weights and a helper function to reconstruct NN from weights
parameters_initial, reconstruct = Flux.destructure(nn_initial)
length(parameters_initial) # number of paraemters in NN
20
The probabilistic model specification below creates a parameters
variable, which has IID normal variables. The parameters
vector represents all parameters of our neural net (weights and biases).
@model function bayes_nn(xs, ts, nparameters, reconstruct; alpha=0.09)
# Create the weight and bias vector.
parameters ~ MvNormal(Zeros(nparameters), I / alpha)
# Construct NN from parameters
nn = reconstruct(parameters)
# Forward NN to make predictions
preds = nn(xs)
# Observe each prediction.
for i in 1:length(ts)
ts[i] ~ Bernoulli(preds[i])
end
end;
Inference can now be performed by calling sample
. We use the NUTS
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo sampler here.
# Perform inference.
N = 5000
ch = sample(bayes_nn(hcat(xs...), ts, length(parameters_initial), reconstruct), NUTS(), N);
Now we extract the parameter samples from the sampled chain as theta
(this is of size 5000 x 20
where 5000
is the number of iterations and 20
is the number of parameters).
We'll use these primarily to determine how good our model's classifier is.
# Extract all weight and bias parameters.
theta = MCMCChains.group(ch, :parameters).value;
Prediction Visualization
We can use MAP estimation to classify our population by using the set of weights that provided the highest log posterior.
# A helper to create NN from weights `theta` and run it through data `x`
nn_forward(x, theta) = reconstruct(theta)(x)
# Plot the data we have.
plot_data()
# Find the index that provided the highest log posterior in the chain.
_, i = findmax(ch[:lp])
# Extract the max row value from i.
i = i.I[1]
# Plot the posterior distribution with a contour plot
x1_range = collect(range(-6; stop=6, length=25))
x2_range = collect(range(-6; stop=6, length=25))
Z = [nn_forward([x1, x2], theta[i, :])[1] for x1 in x1_range, x2 in x2_range]
contour!(x1_range, x2_range, Z)
The contour plot above shows that the MAP method is not too bad at classifying our data.
Now we can visualize our predictions.
$$ p(\tilde{x} | X, \alpha) = \int_{\theta} p(\tilde{x} | \theta) p(\theta | X, \alpha) \approx \sum_{\theta \sim p(\theta | X, \alpha)}f_{\theta}(\tilde{x}) $$
The nn_predict
function takes the average predicted value from a network parameterized by weights drawn from the MCMC chain.
# Return the average predicted value across
# multiple weights.
function nn_predict(x, theta, num)
return mean([nn_forward(x, theta[i, :])[1] for i in 1:10:num])
end;
Next, we use the nn_predict
function to predict the value at a sample of points where the x1
and x2
coordinates range between -6 and 6. As we can see below, we still have a satisfactory fit to our data, and more importantly, we can also see where the neural network is uncertain about its predictions much easier---those regions between cluster boundaries.
# Plot the average prediction.
plot_data()
n_end = 1500
x1_range = collect(range(-6; stop=6, length=25))
x2_range = collect(range(-6; stop=6, length=25))
Z = [nn_predict([x1, x2], theta, n_end)[1] for x1 in x1_range, x2 in x2_range]
contour!(x1_range, x2_range, Z)
Suppose we are interested in how the predictive power of our Bayesian neural network evolved between samples. In that case, the following graph displays an animation of the contour plot generated from the network weights in samples 1 to 1,000.
# Number of iterations to plot.
n_end = 500
anim = @gif for i in 1:n_end
plot_data()
Z = [nn_forward([x1, x2], theta[i, :])[1] for x1 in x1_range, x2 in x2_range]
contour!(x1_range, x2_range, Z; title="Iteration $i", clim=(0, 1))

This has been an introduction to the applications of Turing and Flux in defining Bayesian neural networks.
