之前回答问题【在机器学习模型的训练期间，大概几十分钟到几小时不等，大家都会在等实验的时候做什么？】的时候，说到可以用微信来管着训练，完全不用守着。没想到这么受欢迎……
不知道有哪些朋友是在TF/keras/chainer/mxnet等框架下用python撸的….…
这可是python啊……上itchat，弄个微信号加自己为好友（或者自己发自己），训练进展跟着一路发消息给自己就好了，做了可视化的话顺便把图也一并发过来。
然后就能安心睡觉/逛街/泡妞/写答案了。
讲道理，甚至简单的参数调整都可以照着用手机来……
大体效果如下
当然可以做得更全面一些。最可靠的办法自然是干脆地做一个http服务或者一个rpc，然而这样往往太麻烦。本着简单高效的原则，几行代码能起到效果方便自己当然是最好的，接入微信或者web真就是不错的选择了。只是查看的话，TensorBoard就很好，但是如果想加入一些自定义操作，还是自行定制的。echat.js做成web，或者itchat做个微信服务，都是挺不赖的选择。
这里折腾一个例子。以TensorFlow的example中，利用CNN处理MNIST的程序为例，我们做一点点小小的修改。
首先这里放上写完的代码：

这里大部分是跟原本的代码一样的，不过首先所有print的地方都加了个itchat.send来输出日志，此外加了个带锁的状态量running用来做运行开关。此外，部分参数是通过函数参数传入的。
然后呢，写了个itchat的handler
@itchat.msg_register([itchat.content.TEXT])
def chat_trigger(msg):
global lock, running, learning_rate, training_iters, batch_size, display_step
if msg['Text'] == u'开始':
print('Starting')
with lock:
run_state = running
if not run_state:
try:
threading.Thread(target=nn_train, args=(msg['FromUserName'], (learning_rate, training_iters, batch_size, display_step))).start()
except:
msg.reply('Running')
作用是，如果收到微信消息，内容为『开始』，那就跑训练的函数（当然，为了防止阻塞，放在了另一个线程里）
最后再在脚本主流程里使用itchat登录微信并且启动itchat的服务，这样就实现了基本的控制。
if __name__ == '__main__':
itchat.auto_login(hotReload=True)
itchat.run()
但是我们不满足于此，我还希望可以对流程进行一些控制，对参数进行一些修改，于是乎：
@itchat.msg_register([itchat.content.TEXT])
def chat_trigger(msg):
global lock, running, learning_rate, training_iters, batch_size, display_step
if msg['Text'] == u'开始':
print('Starting')
with lock:
run_state = running
if not run_state:
try:
threading.Thread(target=nn_train, args=(msg['FromUserName'], (learning_rate, training_iters, batch_size, display_step))).start()
except:
msg.reply('Running')
elif msg['Text'] == u'停止':
print('Stopping')
with lock:
running = False
elif msg['Text'] == u'参数':
itchat.send('lr=%f, ti=%d, bs=%d, ds=%d'%(learning_rate, training_iters, batch_size, display_step),msg['FromUserName'])
else:
try:
param = msg['Text'].split()
key, value = param
print(key, value)
if key == 'lr':
learning_rate = float(value)
elif key == 'ti':
training_iters = int(value)
elif key == 'bs':
batch_size = int(value)
elif key == 'ds':
display_step = int(value)
except:
pass
通过这个，我们可以在epoch中途停止（因为nn_train里通过检查running标志来确定是否需要停下来），也可以在训练开始前调整learning_rate等几个参数。
实在是很简单……
