I've trained a character-level LSTM (Long short-term memory) RNN (Recurrent Neural Network) on ~100k recipes dataset using TensorFlow, and it suggested me to cook "Cream Soda with Onions", "Puff Pastry Strawberry Soup", "Zucchini flavor Tea" and "Salmon Mousse of Beef and Stilton Salad with Jalapenos" .
Here you may find more examples of what I ended up with:
- 🎨 Cooking recipes generator demo - to try the model interactively right in your browser.
- 🏋🏻 LSTM model training process - to see how the model was trained.
- 🤖 Interactive Machine Learning Experiments repository - to see more experiments with "Objects detection", "Sketch Recognition", "Image Classification" etc.
This article contains details of how the LSTM model was actually trained on Python using TensorFlow 2 with Keras API.
For a couple of hours of training our character-level RNN model will learn basic concepts of English grammar and punctuation (I wish I could learn English that fast!). It will also learn how to generate different parts of recipes such as 📗 [RECIPE NAME], 🥕 [RECIPE INGREDIENTS] and 📝 [RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS]. Sometimes recipe name, ingredients and instructions will be pretty interesting, sometimes stupid, sometimes fun.
Here are couple of generated recipes examples:
📗 [NAME]
Orange Club Tea Sandwich Cookies
🥕 [INGREDIENTS]
• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 cup flaxseed meal

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
📝 [INSTRUCTIONS]
▪︎ Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
▪︎ Combine cake mix, milk, egg and sugar in a large bowl. Stir until combined and smooth but not sticky. Using a spatula, sprinkle the dough biscuits over the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with sugar, and spread evenly. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack. To serve, add the chocolate.
Or another one:

It is assumed that you're already familiar with concepts of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and with Long short-term memory (LSTM) architecture in particular.
ℹ️ In case if these concepts are new to you I would highly recommend taking a Deep Learning Specialization on Coursera by Andrew Ng. It also might be beneficial to go through the Unreasonable Effectiveness of Recurrent Neural Networks article by Andrej Karpathy.
On a high level, Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) is a class of deep neural networks, most commonly applied to sequence-based data like speech, voice, text or music. They are used for machine translation, speech recognition, voice synthesis etc. The key feature of RNNs is that they are stateful, and they have an internal memory in which some context for the sequence may be stored. For example if the first word of the sequence was He
the RNN might suggest the next word to speaks
instead of just speak
(to form a He speaks
phrase) because the prior knowledge about the first word He
is already inside the internal memory.

Exciting part is that RNN (and LSTM in particular) could memorize not only word-to-word dependencies but also character-to-character dependencies! It doesn't really matter what sequence consists of: it might be words it might be characters. What is important is that they form a time-distributed sequence. For example, we have a sequence of characters ['H', 'e']
. If we ask LSTM what may go next it may suggest a <stop_word>
(meaning, that the sequence that forms word He
is already complete, and we may stop), or it may also suggest a character l
(meaning, that it tries to build a Hello
sequence for us). This type of RNNs are called character-level RNNs (as opposed to word-level RNNs).
In this tutorial we will rely on this memorization feature of RNN networks, and we will use a character-level version of LSTM to generate cooking recipes.
Let's go through several available datasets and explore their pros and cons. One of the requirements I want the dataset to meet is that it should have not only a list of ingredients but also a cooking instruction. I also want it to have a measures and quantities for each ingredient.
Here are several cooking recipes datasets I've found:
- 🤷 Recipe Ingredients Dataset (doesn't have ingredients proportions)
- 🤷 Recipe1M+ (a lot of recipes but requires registration to download)
- 🤷 Epicurious - Recipes with Rating and Nutrition (~20k recipes only, it would be nice to find more)
- 👍🏻 Recipe box (~125,000 recipes with ingredients proportions, good)
Let's try to use the "Recipe box" dataset. The number of recipes looks big enough, also it contains both ingredients and cooking instructions. It is interesting to see if RNN will be able to learn a connection between ingredients and instructions.
There are several options you may follow to experiment with the code in this tutorial:
- You may experiment by using GoogleColab right in your browser (no local setup is needed).
- You may experiment by using Jupyter notebook in Binder right in your browser (no local setup is needed).
- You may setup a Jupyter notebook locally.
I would suggest going with GoogleColab option since it doesn't require any local setup for you (you may experiment right in your browser), and it also provides a powerful GPU support for training that will make the model to train faster. You will be able to experiment with training parameters as well.
Let's start with importing some packages that we will use afterwards.
# Packages for training the model and working with the dataset.
import tensorflow as tf
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import json
# Utility/helper packages.
import platform
import time
import pathlib
import os
First, let's make sure our environment is properly set up and that we're using a 2nd version of Tensorflow.
print('Python version:', platform.python_version())
print('Tensorflow version:', tf.__version__)
print('Keras version:', tf.keras.__version__)
➔ output:
Python version: 3.7.6 Tensorflow version: 2.1.0 Keras version: 2.2.4-tf
Let's load the dataset using tf.keras.utils.get_file. Using get_file()
utility is convenient because it handles caching for you out of the box. It means that you will download the dataset files only once and then even if you launch the same code block in the notebook once again it will use cache, and the code block will be executed faster.
Create cache folder if it not exists:
CACHE_DIR = './tmp'
pathlib.Path(CACHE_DIR).mkdir(exist_ok=True)
Download and unpack the dataset:
dataset_file_name = 'recipes_raw.zip'
dataset_file_origin = 'https://storage.googleapis.com/recipe-box/recipes_raw.zip'
dataset_file_path = tf.keras.utils.get_file(
fname=dataset_file_name,
origin=dataset_file_origin,
cache_dir=CACHE_DIR,
extract=True,
archive_format='zip'
)
print(dataset_file_path)
Here is a path to dataset file after it has been downloaded:
➔ output:
./tmp/datasets/recipes_raw.zip
Let's print the cache folder and see what exactly has been downloaded:
!ls -la ./tmp/datasets/
➔ output:
total 521128 drwxr-xr-x 7 224 May 13 18:10 . drwxr-xr-x 4 128 May 18 18:00 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 20437 May 20 06:46 LICENSE -rw-r--r-- 1 53355492 May 13 18:10 recipes_raw.zip -rw-r--r-- 1 49784325 May 20 06:46 recipes_raw_nosource_ar.json -rw-r--r-- 1 61133971 May 20 06:46 recipes_raw_nosource_epi.json -rw-r--r-- 1 93702755 May 20 06:46 recipes_raw_nosource_fn.json
As you may see, the dataset consists of 3 files. We need to merge information from those 3 files into one dataset later.
Let's load datasets data from json
files and preview examples from them.
def load_dataset(silent=False):
# List of dataset files we want to merge.
dataset_file_names = [
'recipes_raw_nosource_ar.json',
'recipes_raw_nosource_epi.json',
'recipes_raw_nosource_fn.json',
]
dataset = []
for dataset_file_name in dataset_file_names:
dataset_file_path = f'{CACHE_DIR}/datasets/{dataset_file_name}'
with open(dataset_file_path) as dataset_file:
json_data_dict = json.load(dataset_file)
json_data_list = list(json_data_dict.values())
dict_keys = [key for key in json_data_list[0]]
dict_keys.sort()
dataset += json_data_list
# This code block outputs the summary for each dataset.
if silent == False:
print(dataset_file_path)
print('===========================================')
print('Number of examples: ', len(json_data_list), '\n')
print('Example object keys:\n', dict_keys, '\n')
print('Example object:\n', json_data_list[0], '\n')
print('Required keys:\n')
print(' title: ', json_data_list[0]['title'], '\n')
print(' ingredients: ', json_data_list[0]['ingredients'], '\n')
print(' instructions: ', json_data_list[0]['instructions'])
print('\n\n')
return dataset
dataset_raw = load_dataset()

Let's count the total number of examples after we merged the files:
print('Total number of raw examples: ', len(dataset_raw))
➔ output:
Total number of raw examples: 125164
It is possible that some recipes don't have some required fields (name, ingredients or instructions). We need to clean our dataset from those incomplete examples.
The following function will help us filter out recipes which don't have either title or ingredients or instructions:
def recipe_validate_required_fields(recipe):
required_keys = ['title', 'ingredients', 'instructions']
if not recipe:
return False
for required_key in required_keys:
if not recipe[required_key]:
return False
if type(recipe[required_key]) == list and len(recipe[required_key]) == 0:
return False
return True
Let's do the filtering now using recipe_validate_required_fields()
function:
dataset_validated = [recipe for recipe in dataset_raw if recipe_validate_required_fields(recipe)]
print('Dataset size BEFORE validation', len(dataset_raw))
print('Dataset size AFTER validation', len(dataset_validated))
print('Number of incomplete recipes', len(dataset_raw) - len(dataset_validated))
➔ output:
Dataset size BEFORE validation 125164 Dataset size AFTER validation 122938 Number of incomplete recipes 2226
As you may see among 125164
recipes we had 2226
somehow incomplete.
RNN doesn't understand objects. Therefore, we need to convert recipes objects to string and then to numbers (indices). Let's start with converting recipes objects to strings.
To help our RNN learn the structure of the text faster let's add 3 "landmarks" to it. We will use these unique "title", "ingredients" and "instruction" landmarks to separate the logic sections of each recipe.
STOP_WORD_TITLE = '📗 '
STOP_WORD_INGREDIENTS = '\n🥕\n\n'
STOP_WORD_INSTRUCTIONS = '\n📝\n\n'
The following function converts the recipe object to a string (sequence of characters) for later usage in RNN input.
def recipe_to_string(recipe):
# This string is presented as a part of recipes so we need to clean it up.
noize_string = 'ADVERTISEMENT'
title = recipe['title']
ingredients = recipe['ingredients']
instructions = recipe['instructions'].split('\n')
ingredients_string = ''
for ingredient in ingredients:
ingredient = ingredient.replace(noize_string, '')
if ingredient:
ingredients_string += f'• {ingredient}\n'
instructions_string = ''
for instruction in instructions:
instruction = instruction.replace(noize_string, '')
if instruction:
instructions_string += f'▪︎ {instruction}\n'
return f'{STOP_WORD_TITLE}{title}\n{STOP_WORD_INGREDIENTS}{ingredients_string}{STOP_WORD_INSTRUCTIONS}{instructions_string}'
Let's apply recipe_to_string()
function to dataset_validated
:
dataset_stringified = [recipe_to_string(recipe) for recipe in dataset_validated]
print('Stringified dataset size: ', len(dataset_stringified))
➔ output:
Stringified dataset size: 122938
Let's preview first several recipes:
for recipe_index, recipe_string in enumerate(dataset_stringified[:3]):
print('Recipe #{}\n---------'.format(recipe_index + 1))
print(recipe_string)
print('\n')
➔ output:

Place on top of the ketchup. ▪︎ Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until juices are clear.
Just out of curiosity let's preview the recipe somewhere from the middle of the dataset to see that it has expected data structure:
print(dataset_stringified[50000])
➔ output:
📗 Herbed Bean Ragoût 🥕 • 6 ounces haricots verts (French thin green beans), trimmed and halved crosswise • 1 (1-pound) bag frozen edamame (soybeans in the pod) or 1 1/4 cups frozen shelled edamame, not thawed • 2/3 cup finely chopped onion • 2 garlic cloves, minced • 1 Turkish bay leaf or 1/2 California bay leaf • 2 (3-inch) fresh rosemary sprigs • 1/2 teaspoon salt • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper • 1 tablespoon olive oil • 1 medium carrot, cut into 1/8-inch dice • 1 medium celery rib, cut into 1/8-inch dice • 1 (15- to 16-ounces) can small white beans, rinsed and drained • 1 1/2 cups chicken stock or low-sodium broth • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chervil (optional) • Garnish: fresh chervil sprigs 📝 ▪︎ Cook haricots verts in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice and cold water, then drain. Add edamame to boiling water and cook 4 minutes. Drain in a colander, then rinse under cold water. If using edamame in pods, shell them and discard pods. Cook onion, garlic, bay leaf, rosemary, salt, and pepper in oil in a 2- to 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add carrot and celery and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add white beans and stock and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes. Add haricots verts and edamame and simmer, uncovered, until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add butter, parsley, and chervil (if using) and stir gently until butter is melted. Discard bay leaf and rosemary sprigs. ▪︎ Cook haricots verts in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes.

Recipes have different lengths. We need to have one hard-coded sequence length limit before feeding recipe sequences to RNN. We need to find out what recipe length will cover most of the recipe use-cases and at the same time we want to keep it as small as possible to speed up the training process.
recipes_lengths = []
for recipe_text in dataset_stringified:
recipes_lengths.append(len(recipe_text))
plt.hist(recipes_lengths, bins=50)
plt.show()
➔ output:
Most of the recipes have length less than 5000
characters. Let's zoom in to see more detailed picture:
plt.hist(recipes_lengths, range=(0, 8000), bins=50)
plt.show()
➔ output:
Looks like a limit of 2000
characters for the recipes will cover most of the cases. We may try to train RNN with this maximum recipe length limit.
MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH = 2000
Therefore, let's filter out all the recipes that are longer than MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH
:
def filter_recipes_by_length(recipe_test):
return len(recipe_test) <= MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH
dataset_filtered = [recipe_text for recipe_text in dataset_stringified if filter_recipes_by_length(recipe_text)]
print('Dataset size BEFORE filtering: ', len(dataset_stringified))
print('Dataset size AFTER filtering: ', len(dataset_filtered))
print('Number of eliminated recipes: ', len(dataset_stringified) - len(dataset_filtered))
➔ output:
Dataset size BEFORE filtering: 122938 Dataset size AFTER filtering: 100212 Number of eliminated recipes: 22726
We lost 22726
recipes during this filtering but now recipes' data is more dense.
TOTAL_RECIPES_NUM = len(dataset_filtered)
print('MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH: ', MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH)
print('TOTAL_RECIPES_NUM: ', TOTAL_RECIPES_NUM)
➔ output:
MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH: 2000 TOTAL_RECIPES_NUM: 100212
Finally, we ended up with ~100k
recipes. Each recipe has 2000
characters length.
Recurrent neural network doesn't understand characters or words. It understands numbers instead. Therefore, we need to convert recipe texts to numbers.
In this experiment we're going to use a character-level language model based on multi-layer LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) network (as opposed to word-level language model). It means that instead of creating unique indices for words we will create unique indices for characters. By doing that we let the network predict the next character instead of the next word in a sequence.
ℹ️ You may find more details about character-level RNNs explanation in the Unreasonable Effectiveness of Recurrent Neural Networks article by Andrej Karpathy:
To create a vocabulary out of recipes texts we will use tf.keras.preprocessing.text.Tokenizer.
We also need to come with some unique character that will be treated as a stop-character and will indicate the end of a recipe. We need it for recipe generation afterwards since without this stop-character we won't know where the end of a recipe that we're generating is.
STOP_SIGN = '␣'
tokenizer = tf.keras.preprocessing.text.Tokenizer(
char_level=True,
filters='',
lower=False,
split=''
)
# Stop word is not a part of recipes, but tokenizer must know about it as well.
tokenizer.fit_on_texts([STOP_SIGN])
tokenizer.fit_on_texts(dataset_filtered)
tokenizer.get_config()

To get a full size of a vocabulary we need to add +1
to the number of already registered characters because index 0
is a reserved index that won't be assigned to any word.
VOCABULARY_SIZE = len(tokenizer.word_counts) + 1
print('VOCABULARY_SIZE: ', VOCABULARY_SIZE)
➔ output:
VOCABULARY_SIZE: 176
Let's play around with tokenizer dictionaries to see how we may convert characters to indices and vice-versa:
print(tokenizer.index_word[5])
print(tokenizer.index_word[20])
➔ output:
o ,
Let's try to convert character to index:
tokenizer.word_index['r']
➔ output:
8
To illustrate what kind of characters form all the recipes in our dataset we may print all of them as an array:

These are all the characters our RNN model will work with. It will try to learn how to assemble these characters into sequences that will look like recipes.
Let's see how we may use tokenizer
functions to convert text to indices:
tokenizer.texts_to_sequences(['📗 yes'])
➔ output:
[[51, 1, 28, 2, 9]]
Now, once we have a vocabulary (character --> code
and code --> character
relations) we may convert the set of recipes from text to numbers (RNN works with numbers as an input and not with the texts).
dataset_vectorized = tokenizer.texts_to_sequences(dataset_filtered)
print('Vectorized dataset size', len(dataset_vectorized))
➔ output:
Vectorized dataset size 100212
This is how the beginning of the first vectorized recipe looks like:
print(dataset_vectorized[0][:10], '...')
➔ output:
[51, 1, 33, 10, 5, 23, 1, 35, 5, 5] ...
Let's see how can we convert vectorized recipe back to text representation:
def recipe_sequence_to_string(recipe_sequence):
recipe_stringified = tokenizer.sequences_to_texts([recipe_sequence])[0]
print(recipe_stringified)
recipe_sequence_to_string(dataset_vectorized[0])
➔ output:
📗 Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings 🥕 • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves • 2 tablespoons butter • 2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup • 1 onion, finely diced • 2 (10 ounce) packages refrigerated biscuit dough, torn into pieces 📝 ▪︎ Place the chicken, butter, soup, and onion in a slow cooker, and fill with enough water to cover. ▪︎ Cover, and cook for 5 to 6 hours on High. About 30 minutes before serving, place the torn biscuit dough in the slow cooker. Cook until the dough is no longer raw in the center.
We need all recipes to have the same length for training. To do that we'll use tf.keras.preprocessing.sequence.pad_sequences utility to add a stop word to the end of each recipe and to make them have the same length.
Let's check the recipes lengths:
for recipe_index, recipe in enumerate(dataset_vectorized[:10]):
print('Recipe #{} length: {}'.format(recipe_index + 1, len(recipe)))
➔ output:
Recipe #1 length: 546 Recipe #2 length: 401 Recipe #3 length: 671 Recipe #4 length: 736 Recipe #5 length: 1518 Recipe #6 length: 740 Recipe #7 length: 839 Recipe #8 length: 667 Recipe #9 length: 1264 Recipe #10 length: 854
Let's pad all recipes with a STOP_SIGN
:
dataset_vectorized_padded_without_stops = tf.keras.preprocessing.sequence.pad_sequences(
dataset_vectorized,
padding='post',
truncating='post',
# We use -1 here and +1 in the next step to make sure
# that all recipes will have at least 1 stops sign at the end,
# since each sequence will be shifted and truncated afterwards
# (to generate X and Y sequences).
maxlen=MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH-1,
value=tokenizer.texts_to_sequences([STOP_SIGN])[0]
)
dataset_vectorized_padded = tf.keras.preprocessing.sequence.pad_sequences(
dataset_vectorized_padded_without_stops,
padding='post',
truncating='post',
maxlen=MAX_RECIPE_LENGTH+1,
value=tokenizer.texts_to_sequences([STOP_SIGN])[0]
)
for recipe_index, recipe in enumerate(dataset_vectorized_padded[:10]):
print('Recipe #{} length: {}'.format(recipe_index, len(recipe)))
➔ output:
Recipe #0 length: 2001 Recipe #1 length: 2001 Recipe #2 length: 2001 Recipe #3 length: 2001 Recipe #4 length: 2001 Recipe #5 length: 2001 Recipe #6 length: 2001 Recipe #7 length: 2001 Recipe #8 length: 2001 Recipe #9 length: 2001
After the padding all recipes in the dataset now have the same length and RNN will also be able to learn where each recipe stops (by observing the presence of a STOP_SIGN
).
Here is an example of how a first recipe looks like after the padding.
recipe_sequence_to_string(dataset_vectorized_padded[0])

All recipes now end with one or many ␣
signs. We expect our LSTM model to learn that whenever it sees the ␣
stop-character it means that the recipe is ended. Once the network will learn this concept it will put stop-character at the end of every newly generated recipe.
Up until now we were working with the dataset as with the NumPy array. It will be more convenient during the training process if we will convert a dataset NumPy array to a TensorFlow dataset. It will give us an ability to use such helpers functions as batch()
, shuffle()
, repeat()
, prefecth()
etc.:

Let's see what the first recipe in the dataset looks like by using a TensorFlow dataset API this time:

For each sequence we need to duplicate and shift it to form the input
and target
texts. For example, say the sequence_length
is 4
and our text is Hello
. The input sequence would be Hell
, and the target sequence ello
.
def split_input_target(recipe):
input_text = recipe[:-1]
target_text = recipe[1:]
return input_text, target_text

You may notice from the line above, that now each example in the dataset consists of two tuples: input and target. Let's print an example:

Each index of these vectors is processed as one time step by RNN. For the input at time step 0
, the model receives the index for 📗
and tries to predict the index for
(a space character) as the next character. At the next time-step, it does the same thing, but the RNN considers the previous step context in addition to the current input character.

We have ~100k
recipes in the dataset, and each recipe has two tuples of 2000
characters.

If we will feed the complete dataset during the training process to the model and then will try to do a back-propagation for all examples at once we might run out of memory and each training epoch may take too long to execute. To avoid the situation like this we need to split our dataset into batches.
# Batch size.
BATCH_SIZE = 64
# Buffer size to shuffle the dataset (TF data is designed to work
# with possibly infinite sequences, so it doesn't attempt to shuffle
# the entire sequence in memory. Instead, it maintains a buffer in
# which it shuffles elements).
SHUFFLE_BUFFER_SIZE = 1000
dataset_train = dataset_targeted \
# Shuffling examples first.
.shuffle(SHUFFLE_BUFFER_SIZE) \
# Splitting examples on batches.
.batch(BATCH_SIZE, drop_remainder=True) \
# Making a dataset to be repeatable (it will never ends).
.repeat()
print(dataset_train)
➔ output:
<RepeatDataset shapes: ((64, 2000), (64, 2000)), types: (tf.int32, tf.int32)>
From the line above you may notice that our dataset now consists of the same two tuples of 2000
characters but now they are grouped in the batches by 64
.
for input_text, target_text in dataset_train.take(1):
print('1st batch: input_text:', input_text)

We will use tf.keras.Sequential to define the model. For this experiment we will use the following layer types:
- tf.keras.layers.Embedding - the input layer (a trainable lookup table that will map the numbers of each character to a vector with
embedding_dim
dimensions), - tf.keras.layers.LSTM - a type of RNN with size
units=rnn_units
(you can also use a GRU layer here), - tf.keras.layers.Dense - the output layer, with
VOCABULARY_SIZE
outputs.
Let's do a quick detour and see how Embedding Layer works. It takes several char indices sequences (batch) as an input. It encodes every character of every sequence to a vector of tmp_embedding_size
length.
tmp_vocab_size = 10
tmp_embedding_size = 5
tmp_input_length = 8
tmp_batch_size = 2
tmp_model = tf.keras.models.Sequential()
tmp_model.add(tf.keras.layers.Embedding(
input_dim=tmp_vocab_size,
output_dim=tmp_embedding_size,
input_length=tmp_input_length
))
# The model will take as input an integer matrix of size (batch, input_length).
# The largest integer (i.e. word index) in the input should be no larger than 9 (tmp_vocab_size).
# Now model.output_shape == (None, 10, 64), where None is the batch dimension.
tmp_input_array = np.random.randint(
low=0,
high=tmp_vocab_size,
size=(tmp_batch_size, tmp_input_length)
)
tmp_model.compile('rmsprop', 'mse')
tmp_output_array = tmp_model.predict(tmp_input_array)

The picture above illustrates GRU network, but you may easily replace GRU with LSTM.
Let's play around with un-trained model to see its interface (what input do we need and what output will we have) and let's see what model predicts before the training:
for input_example_batch, target_example_batch in dataset_train.take(1):
example_batch_predictions = model(input_example_batch)
print(example_batch_predictions.shape, "# (batch_size, sequence_length, vocab_size)")

To get actual predictions from the model we need to sample from the output distribution, to get actual character indices. This distribution is defined by the logits over the character vocabulary.

For each input character the example_batch_predictions
array contains a vector of probabilities of what the next character might be. If probability at position 15
in that vector is, lets say, 0.3
and the probability at position 25
is 1.1
it means that we should better pick the character with the index 25
as next following character.
Since we want our network to generate different recipes (even for the same input), we can't just pick the maximum probability value. In this case we will end up with the same recipe being predicted by the network over and over again. What we will do instead is drawing samples from predictions (like the one printed above) by using tf.random.categorical() function. It will bring some fuzziness to the network. For example, let's say we have character H
as an input, then, by sampling from categorical distribution, our network may predict not only the word He
, but also words Hello
, and Hi
etc.
# logits is 2-D Tensor with shape [batch_size, num_classes].
# Each slice [i, :] represents the unnormalized log-probabilities for all classes.
# In the example below we say that the probability for class "0"
# (element with index 0) is low but the probability for class "2" is much higher.
tmp_logits = [
[-0.95, 0, 0.95],
];
# Let's generate 5 samples. Each sample is a class index. Class probabilities
# are being taken into account (we expect to see more samples of class "2").
tmp_samples = tf.random.categorical(

We may see now what our untrained model actually predicts:
print('Input:\n', repr(''.join(tokenizer.sequences_to_texts([input_example_batch[0].numpy()[:50]]))))
print()
print('Next char prediction:\n', repr(''.join(tokenizer.sequences_to_texts([sampled_indices[:50]]))))

As you may see, the model suggests some meaningless predictions, but this is because it wasn't trained yet.
We want to train our model to generate recipes as similar to the real ones as possible. We will use all data from dataset for training. There is not need to extract test or validation sub-sets in this case.
We're going to use tf.keras.optimizers.Adam optimizer with tf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy() loss function to train the model:
# An objective function.
# The function is any callable with the signature scalar_loss = fn(y_true, y_pred).
def loss(labels, logits):
entropy = tf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy(
y_true=labels,
y_pred=logits,
from_logits=True
)
return entropy
example_batch_loss = loss(target_example_batch, example_batch_predictions)
print("Prediction shape: ", example_batch_predictions.shape, " # (batch_size, sequence_length, vocab_size)")
print("scalar_loss.shape: ", example_batch_loss.shape)
print("scalar_loss: ", example_batch_loss.numpy().mean())
➔ output:
Prediction shape: (64, 2000, 176) # (batch_size, sequence_length, vocab_size) scalar_loss.shape: (64, 2000) scalar_loss: 5.1618285
Let's finally compile the model:
adam_optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=0.001)
model.compile(
optimizer=adam_optimizer,
loss=loss
)
For model training process we may configure a tf.keras.callbacks.EarlyStopping callback. It will stop the training automatically in case if model is not improving for several epochs anymore:
early_stopping_callback = tf.keras.callbacks.EarlyStopping(
patience=5,
monitor='loss',
restore_best_weights=True,
verbose=1
)
Let's also configure a tf.keras.callbacks.ModelCheckpoint checkpoint that will allow us to periodically save trained weights to the file so that we could restore the model from weights afterwards.
# Create a checkpoints directory.
checkpoint_dir = 'tmp/checkpoints'
os.makedirs(checkpoint_dir, exist_ok=True)
checkpoint_prefix = os.path.join(checkpoint_dir, 'ckpt_{epoch}')
checkpoint_callback=tf.keras.callbacks.ModelCheckpoint(
filepath=checkpoint_prefix,
save_weights_only=True
)
Let's train our model for 500
epochs with 1500
steps per each epoch. For each epoch step the batch of 64
recipes will be fetched and gradient descent will be executed for those 64
recipes of length 2000
step by step.
If you're experimenting with training parameters it might make sense to reduce the number of epochs to, let's say 20
along with the number of steps per epoch and then see how the model performs under that conditions. If the model improves its performance you may add more data (steps and epochs) to the training process. It might save you some time while you adjust parameters.
EPOCHS = 500
INITIAL_EPOCH = 1
STEPS_PER_EPOCH = 1500
print('EPOCHS: ', EPOCHS)
print('INITIAL_EPOCH: ', INITIAL_EPOCH)
print('STEPS_PER_EPOCH: ', STEPS_PER_EPOCH)
➔ output:
EPOCHS: 500 INITIAL_EPOCH: 1 STEPS_PER_EPOCH: 1500
Let's launch the training:
history = model.fit(
x=dataset_train,
epochs=EPOCHS,
steps_per_epoch=STEPS_PER_EPOCH,
initial_epoch=INITIAL_EPOCH,
callbacks=[
checkpoint_callback,
early_stopping_callback
]
)
# Saving the trained model to file (to be able to re-use it later).
model_name = 'recipe_generation_rnn_raw.h5'
model.save(model_name, save_format='h5')
def render_training_history(training_history):
loss = training_history.history['loss']

➔ output:
ℹ️ On the chart above only first 10 epochs are presented.
We can see from the chart that model performance is getting better during the training. It means that the model learns to predict next characters in a way that the final sequence looks similar to some real recipe texts.
To keep this prediction step simple, we will restore the saved model and rebuild it with a batch size of 1. Because of the way the RNN state is passed from time-step to time-step, the model only accepts a fixed batch size once built. To run the model with a different batch_size
, we need to rebuild the model and restore the weights from the checkpoint.
tf.train.latest_checkpoint(checkpoint_dir)
➔ output:
'tmp/checkpoints/ckpt_1'
Let's rebuild the model with batch size of 1
and load trained weights to it:
simplified_batch_size = 1
model_simplified = build_model(vocab_size, embedding_dim, rnn_units, simplified_batch_size)
model_simplified.load_weights(tf.train.latest_checkpoint(checkpoint_dir))
model_simplified.build(tf.TensorShape([simplified_batch_size, None]))

Let's double check that input shape is simplified:

To use our trained model for recipe generation we need to implement a so-called prediction loop. The following code block generates the text using the loop:
- It starts by choosing a start string, initializing the RNN state and setting the number of characters to generate.
- It gets the prediction distribution of the next character using the start string, and the RNN state.
- Then, it uses a categorical distribution to calculate the index of the predicted character. It uses this predicted character as the next input to the model.
- The RNN state returned by the model is fed back into the model so that it now has more context, instead of only one character. After predicting the next character, the modified RNN states are again fed back into the model, which is how it learns as it gets more context from the previously predicted characters.
Image source: Text generation with an RNN notebook.
The temperature
parameter here defines how fuzzy or how unexpected the generated recipe is going to be. Low temperatures results in more predictable text. Higher temperatures result in more surprising text. You need to experiment to find the best setting. We will do some experimentation with different temperatures below.
def generate_text(model, start_string, num_generate = 1000, temperature=1.0):
# Evaluation step (generating text using the learned model)
padded_start_string = STOP_WORD_TITLE + start_string
# Converting our start string to numbers (vectorizing).
input_indices = np.array(tokenizer.texts_to_sequences([padded_start_string]))
# Empty string to store our results.
text_generated = []
# Here batch size == 1.
model.reset_states()
for char_index in range(num_generate):
predictions = model(input_indices)
# remove the batch dimension
predictions = tf.squeeze(predictions, 0)
# Using a categorical distribution to predict the character returned by the model.
predictions = predictions / temperature
predicted_id = tf.random.categorical(
predictions,
num_samples=1
)[-1, 0].numpy()
# We pass the predicted character as the next input to the model
# along with the previous hidden state.
input_indices = tf.expand_dims([predicted_id], 0)
next_character = tokenizer.sequences_to_texts(input_indices.numpy())[0]
text_generated.append(next_character)
return (padded_start_string + ''.join(text_generated))
Now, let's use generate_text()
to actually generate some new recipes. The generate_combinations()
function goes through all possible combinations of the first recipe letters and temperatures. It generates 56
different combinations to help us figure out how the model performs and what temperature is better to use.
def generate_combinations(model):
recipe_length = 1000
try_letters = ['', '\n', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'O', 'L', 'Mushroom', 'Apple', 'Slow', 'Christmass', 'The', 'Banana', 'Homemade']
try_temperature = [1.0, 0.8, 0.4, 0.2]
for letter in try_letters:
for temperature in try_temperature:
generated_text = generate_text(
model,
start_string=letter,
num_generate = recipe_length,
temperature=temperature
)
print(f'Attempt: "{letter}" + {temperature}')
print('-----------------------------------')
print(generated_text)
print('\n\n')
To avoid making this article too long only some of those 56
combinations will be printed below.
