[FIXED] Unable to get proper output of TFLite model in Kotlin

Issue

I used FER2013 dataset from kaggle and trained a CNN model. Saved the model as TFLite. Made a Kotlin app using it. Now I am not able to get proper output. Sample output of the model : [0. 0. 0. 1. 0. 0. 0.] for happy

Please check the code for MainActivity.kt. I am pure noobie. Thank you so much for bearing with me.

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        binding = ActivityMainBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
        val view = binding.root

                 outputGenerator(bitmap)
                 }
            }


    private fun outputGenerator(bitmap: Bitmap){
        val model = MoodDetector.newInstance(this)
        
        val newBitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, 48, 48, true)

        // Creates inputs for reference.
        val inputFeature0 = TensorBuffer.createFixedSize(intArrayOf(1, 48, 48, 1), DataType.FLOAT32)
        inputFeature0.loadBuffer(byteBuffer)
        
        // Runs model inference and gets result.
        val outputs = model.process(inputFeature0)
        val outputFeature0 = outputs.outputFeature0AsTensorBuffer
        tvOutput.text = outputFeature0.toString()
        Log.d("TAG", outputs.toString())
        Log.d("TAG", outputFeature0.toString())
        
//        val data1 = outputFeature0.floatArray
//        Log.d("TAG2", outputFeature0.dataType.toString())
//        Log.d("TAG2", data1[0].toString())

//        val probabilityBuffer = TensorBuffer.createFixedSize(intArrayOf(1, 1001), DataType.UINT8)

        // Releases model resources if no longer used.
        model.close()

    }
}

The output of the last 2 log files is: com.example.mooddetector.ml.MoodDetector$Outputs@a04fe1 org.tensorflow.lite.support.tensorbuffer.TensorBufferFloat@ca3b548

Solution

The docs for TensorBufferFloat list 2 methods that might be useful to you

float[] getFloatArray()

Returns a float array of the values stored in this buffer.

float getFloatValue(int absIndex)

Returns a float value at a given index.

The docs are for Java, which means that in Kotlin all getters (and setters) just become normal field/property access, i.e. .getFloatArray() becomes just .floatArray

So if you get the whole array with .floatArray you can just join the values together with some separator to get a string representation.

val output = outputFeature0.floatArray.joinToString(", ", "[", "]")

Log.d("TAG", output)

If you want to control the formatting use the DecimalFormat

val pattern = "#.0#" // rounds to 2 decimal places if needed
val locale = Locale.ENGLISH
val formatter = DecimalFormat(pattern, DecimalFormatSymbols(locale))
formatter.roundingMode = RoundingMode.HALF_EVEN // this is the default rounding mode anyway    

val output = outputFeature0.floatArray.joinToString(", ", "[", "]") { value ->
    formatter.format(value)
}

Log.d("TAG", output)

If you need to do this formatting in different places you can move the logic into an extension method

fun FloatArray.joinToFormattedString(): String {
    val pattern = "#.0#" // rounds to 2 decimal places if needed
    val locale = Locale.ENGLISH
    val formatter = DecimalFormat(pattern, DecimalFormatSymbols(locale))
    formatter.roundingMode = RoundingMode.HALF_EVEN // this is the default rounding mode anyway
    return this.joinToString(
        separator = ", ",
        prefix = "[",
        postfix = "]",
    ) { value ->
        formatter.format(value)
    }
}

Then you can simply call

Log.d("TAG", outputFeature0.floatArray.joinToFormattedString())
