Machine Learning Web App with Streamlit and Python

5 minute read

Today we are going to install a Machine Learning Web App with Streamlit and Python on MacOs.

Streamlit is an open-source app framework for Machine Learning and Data Science teams. Create beautiful data apps in hours, not weeks. All in pure Python. In this project first we are going to install and write the code to perfom classsifications.

Install Streamlit on macOS

Streamlit’s officially-supported environment manager for macOS and Linux is Pipenv. See instructions on how to install and use it below.

Install Pipenv

Install pip.

On a macOS:
```
sudo easy_install pip
```
Install pipenv.
```
pip3 install pipenv
```

Create a new environment with Streamlit

Navigate to your project folder:
```
cd myproject
```
Create a new Pipenv environment in that folder and activate that environment:
```
pipenv shell
```
When you run the command above, a file called Pipfile will appear in myprojects/. This file is where your Pipenv environment and its dependencies are declared.
Install Streamlit in your environment:
```
pip install streamlit
```
Or if you want to create an easily-reproducible environment, replace pip with pipenv every time you install something:
```
pipenv install streamlit
```
Test that the installation worked:
```
streamlit hello
```
Streamlit’s Hello app should appear in a new tab in your web browser!
For this project we need install two libraries, ** sklearn**

 pip install sklearn

and for visualization ** matplotlib**

pip install matplotlib

In the next section are going to load, explore, visualize and interact with data, and generate dashboards. Our web application will allows users to choose what classification algorithm they want to use and let them interactively set hyper-parameter values.

Load the Mushrooms Data Set

We are going to download the dataset from the UC Irvine Machine Learning Repository!

http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Mushroom?ref=datanews.io

you can download the csv file here

https://github.com/ruslanmv/Machine-Learning-Web-App-with-Streamlit/raw/main/mushrooms.csv

Creating the app.py program

We are going to go to the folder of the project from the terminal

cd myproject

and there you copy the dataset

curl https://github.com/ruslanmv/Machine-Learning-Web-App-with-Streamlit/raw/main/mushrooms.csv --output mushrooms.cs

and there we create the app.py program, by using any code editor, and create a an app.py file

atom app.py

and there we can write the main structure of the program

import streamlit as st
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from sklearn.svm import SVC
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier
from sklearn.preprocessing import LabelEncoder
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.metrics import plot_confusion_matrix, plot_roc_curve, plot_precision_recall_curve
from sklearn.metrics import precision_score, recall_score


def main():
    st.title("Binary Classification Web App")




if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

you can execute this program to know if streamlit is working in your current directory

streamit run app.py

Let introduce the parts of the full code.

The reading part

    @st.cache(persist=True)
    def load_data():
        data = pd.read_csv('mushrooms.csv')
        label = LabelEncoder()
        for col in data.columns:
            data[col] = label.fit_transform(data[col])
        return data
        
 df = load_data()
    class_names = ['edible', 'poisonous']

    x_train, x_test, y_train, y_test = split(df)

Training and Test splitting

    @st.cache(persist=True)
    def split(df):
        y = df.type
        x = df.drop(columns =['type'])
        x_train, x_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(x, y, test_size=0.3, random_state=0)
        return x_train, x_test, y_train, y_test

Plot Evaluation Metrics

    def plot_metrics(metrics_list):
        if 'Confusion Matrix' in metrics_list:
            st.subheader("Confusion Matrix") 
            plot_confusion_matrix(model, x_test, y_test, display_labels=class_names)
            st.pyplot()
        
        if 'ROC Curve' in metrics_list:
            st.subheader("ROC Curve") 
            plot_roc_curve(model, x_test, y_test)
            st.pyplot()

        if 'Precision-Recall Curve' in metrics_list:
            st.subheader("Precision-Recall Curve")
            plot_precision_recall_curve(model, x_test, y_test)
            st.pyplot()

Training a Support Vector Classifier

    if classifier == 'Support Vector Machine (SVM)':
        st.sidebar.subheader("Model Hyperparameters")
        C = st.sidebar.number_input("C (Regularizaion parameter)", 0.01, 10.0, step=0.01, key='C')
        kernel = st.sidebar.radio("Kernel",("rbf", "linear"), key='kernel')
        gamma = st.sidebar.radio("Gamma (Kernel Coefficient", ("scale", "auto"), key = 'gamma')
        metrics = st.sidebar.multiselect("What metrics to plot?",('Confusion Matrix', 'ROC Curve', 'Precision-Recall Curve'))


        if st.sidebar.button("Classfiy", key='classify'):
            st.subheader("Support Vector Machine (SVM Results")
            model = SVC(C=C, kernel=kernel, gamma=gamma)
            model.fit(x_train, y_train)
            accuracy = model.score(x_test, y_test)
            y_pred = model.predict(x_test)
            st.write("Accuracy ", accuracy.round(2))
            st.write("Precision: ", precision_score(y_test, y_pred, labels=class_names).round(2))
            st.write("Recall: ", recall_score(y_test, y_pred, labels=class_names).round(2))
            plot_metrics(metrics)

Train a Logistic Regression Classifier

    if classifier == 'Logistic Regression':
        st.sidebar.subheader("Model Hyperparameters")
        C = st.sidebar.number_input("C (Regularizaion parameter)", 0.01, 10.0, step=0.01, key='C_LR')
        max_iter = st.sidebar.slider("Maxiumum number of interations", 100, 500, key='max_iter')
        metrics = st.sidebar.multiselect("What metrics to plot?",('Confusion Matrix', 'ROC Curve', 'Precision-Recall Curve'))

        if st.sidebar.button("Classfiy", key='classify'):
            st.subheader("Logistic Regression Results")
            model = LogisticRegression(C=C, max_iter=max_iter)
            model.fit(x_train, y_train)
            accuracy = model.score(x_test, y_test)
            y_pred = model.predict(x_test)
            st.write("Accuracy ", accuracy.round(2))
            st.write("Precision: ", precision_score(y_test, y_pred, labels=class_names).round(2))
            st.write("Recall: ", recall_score(y_test, y_pred, labels=class_names).round(2))
            plot_metrics(metrics)

Training a Random Forest Classifier

    if classifier == 'Random Forest':
        st.sidebar.subheader("Model Hyperparameters")
        n_estimators  = st.sidebar.number_input("The number of trees in the forest", 100, 5000, step=10, key='n_estimators')
        max_depth = st.sidebar.number_input("The maximum depth of the tree", 1, 20, step=1, key='max_depth')
        bootstrap = st.sidebar.radio("Bootstrap samples when building trees", ('True','False'), key='bootstrap')
        metrics = st.sidebar.multiselect("What metrics to plot?",('Confusion Matrix', 'ROC Curve', 'Precision-Recall Curve'))

        if st.sidebar.button("Classfiy", key='classify'):
            st.subheader("")
            model = RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators=n_estimators, max_depth=max_depth, bootstrap=bootstrap, n_jobs=-1)
            model.fit(x_train, y_train)
            accuracy = model.score(x_test, y_test)
            y_pred = model.predict(x_test)
            st.write("Accuracy ", accuracy.round(2))
            st.write("Precision: ", precision_score(y_test, y_pred, labels=class_names).round(2))
            st.write("Recall: ", recall_score(y_test, y_pred, labels=class_names).round(2))
            plot_metrics(metrics)

Ans you can get the following program:

You can download it from https://github.com/ruslanmv/Machine-Learning-Web-App-with-Streamlit/blob/main/app.py

Use your new environment

Any time you want to use the new environment, you first need to go to your project folder (where the Pipenv file lives) and run:
```
pipenv shell
```
Now you can use Python and Streamlit as usual:
```
streamlit run myfile.py
```
When you’re done using this environment, just type exit or press ctrl-D to return to your normall shell.

Congratulations! We have Build a web app to classify mushrooms. I hope you enjoy it!
