Convolutional Neural Net-Keras-val_acc Keyerror 'acc'

Question

I am trying to implement CNN by Theano. I used Keras library. My data set is 55 alphabet images, 28x28.

In the last part I get this error:

train_acc=hist.history['acc']
KeyError: 'acc'

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

This is part of my code:

Answer 1

Your log variable will be consistent with the metrics when you compile your model.

For example, the following code

model.compile(loss="mean_squared_error", optimizer=optimizer) 
model.fit_generator(gen,epochs=50,callbacks=ModelCheckpoint("model_{acc}.hdf5")])

will gives a KeyError: 'acc' because you didn't set metrics=["accuracy"] in model.compile.

This error also happens when metrics are not matched. For example

model.compile(loss="mean_squared_error",optimizer=optimizer, metrics="binary_accuracy"]) 
model.fit_generator(gen,epochs=50,callbacks=ModelCheckpoint("model_{acc}.hdf5")])

still gives a KeyError: 'acc' because you set a binary_accuracy metric but asking for accuracy later.

If you change the above code to

model.compile(loss="mean_squared_error",optimizer=optimizer, metrics="binary_accuracy"]) 
model.fit_generator(gen,epochs=50,callbacks=ModelCheckpoint("model_{binary_accuracy}.hdf5")])

it will work.
