Using Tensorflow for Silicon gives inaccurate results when compared to Google Colab GPU (9-15% differences). Here are my install versions for 4 anaconda env's. I understand the Floating point precision can be an issue, batch size, activation functions but how do you rectify this issue for the past 3 years?
1.) Version TF: 2.12.0, Python 3.10.13, tensorflow-deps: 2.9.0, tensorflow-metal: 1.2.0, h5py: 3.6.0, keras: 2.12.0
2.) Version TF: 2.19.0, Python 3.11.0, tensorflow-metal: 1.2.0, h5py: 3.13.0, keras: 3.9.2, jax: 0.6.0, jax-metal: 0.1.1,jaxlib: 0.6.0, ml_dtypes: 0.5.1
3.) python: 3.10.13,tensorflow: 2.19.0,tensorflow-metal: 1.2.0, h5py: 3.13.0, keras: 3.9.2, ml_dtypes: 0.5.1
4.) Version TF: 2.16.2, tensorflow-deps:2.9.0,Python: 3.10.16, tensorflow-macos 2.16.2, tensorflow-metal: 1.2.0, h5py:3.13.0, keras: 3.9.2, ml_dtypes: 0.3.2
Install of Each ENV with common example:
Create ENV: conda create --name TF_Env_V2 --no-default-packages
start env: source TF_Env_Name
ENV_1.) conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps , conda install tensorflow,pip install tensorflow-metal,conda install ipykernel
ENV_2.) conda install pip python==3.11, pip install tensorflow,pip install tensorflow-metal,conda install ipykernel
ENV_3) conda install pip python 3.10.13,pip install tensorflow, pip install tensorflow-metal,conda install ipykernel
ENV_4) conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps, pip install tensorflow-macos, pip install tensor-metal, conda install ipykernel
Example used on all 4 env:
import tensorflow as tf
cifar = tf.keras.datasets.cifar100
(x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = cifar.load_data()
model = tf.keras.applications.ResNet50(
include_top=True,
weights=None,
input_shape=(32, 32, 3),
classes=100,)
loss_fn = tf.keras.losses.SparseCategoricalCrossentropy(from_logits=False)
model.compile(optimizer="adam", loss=loss_fn, metrics=["accuracy"])
model.fit(x_train, y_train, epochs=5, batch_size=64)
