how do I implement Gaussian blurring layer in Keras?

问题

I have an autoencoder and I need to add a Gaussian noise layer after my output. I need a custom layer to do this, but I really do not know how to produce it, I need to produce it using tensors.

what should I do if I want to implement the above equation in the call part of the following code?

class SaltAndPepper(Layer):

    def __init__(self, ratio, **kwargs):
        super(SaltAndPepper, self).__init__(**kwargs)
        self.supports_masking = True
        self.ratio = ratio

    # the definition of the call method of custom layer
    def call(self, inputs, training=None):
        def noised():
            shp = K.shape(inputs)[1:]

         **what should I put here????**            
                return out

        return K.in_train_phase(noised(), inputs, training=training)

    def get_config(self):
        config = {'ratio': self.ratio}
        base_config = super(SaltAndPepper, self).get_config()
        return dict(list(base_config.items()) + list(config.items()))

I also try to implement using lambda layer but it dose not work.

If you are looking for additive or multiplicative Gaussian noise, then they have been already implemented as a layer in Keras: GuassianNoise (additive) and GuassianDropout (multiplicative).

However, if you are specifically looking for the blurring effect as in Gaussian blur filters in image processing, then you can simply use a depth-wise convolution layer (to apply the filter on each input channel independently) with fixed weights to get the desired output (Note that you need to generate the weights of Gaussian kernel to set them as the weights of DepthwiseConv2D layer. For that you can use the function introduced in this answer):

import numpy as np
from keras.layers import DepthwiseConv2D

kernel_size = 3  # set the filter size of Gaussian filter
kernel_weights = ... # compute the weights of the filter with the given size (and additional params)

# assuming that the shape of `kernel_weighs` is `(kernel_size, kernel_size)`
# we need to modify it to make it compatible with the number of input channels
in_channels = 3  # the number of input channels
kernel_weights = np.expand_dims(kernel_weights, axis=-1)
kernel_weights = np.repeat(kernel_weights, in_channels, axis=-1) # apply the same filter on all the input channels
kernel_weights = np.expand_dims(kernel_weights, axis=-1)  # for shape compatibility reasons

# define your model...

# somewhere in your model you want to apply the Gaussian blur,
# so define a DepthwiseConv2D layer and set its weights to kernel weights
g_layer = DepthwiseConv2D(kernel_size, use_bias=False, padding='same')
g_layer_out = g_layer(the_input_tensor_for_this_layer)  # apply it on the input Tensor of this layer

# the rest of the model definition...

# do this BEFORE calling `compile` method of the model
g_layer.set_weights([kernel_weights])
g_layer.trainable = False  # the weights should not change during training

# compile the model and start training...

As the Error: AttributeError: 'float' object has no attribute 'dtype', just change K.sqrt to math.sqrt, then it will work.
