batch(batch_size, drop_remainder=False, num_parallel_workers=None, per_batch_map=None, input_columns=None, output_columns=None, column_order=None, pad_info=None, python_multiprocessing=False)

Combine batch_size number of consecutive rows into batches.

For any child node, a batch is treated as a single row. For any column, all the elements within that column must have the same shape. If a per_batch_map callable is provided, it will be applied to the batches of tensors.

Note

The order of using repeat and batch reflects the number of batches and per_batch_map. It is recommended that the repeat operation be used after the batch operation.

Parameters

batch_size (int or function) – The number of rows each batch is created with. An int or callable which takes exactly 1 parameter, BatchInfo.
drop_remainder (bool, optional) – Determines whether or not to drop the last possibly incomplete batch (default=False). If True, and if there are less than batch_size rows available to make the last batch, then those rows will be dropped and not propagated to the child node.
num_parallel_workers (int, optional) – Number of workers to process the dataset in parallel (default=None).
per_batch_map (callable, optional) – Per batch map callable. A callable which takes (list[Tensor], list[Tensor], …, BatchInfo) as input parameters. Each list[Tensor] represents a batch of Tensors on a given column. The number of lists should match with number of entries in input_columns. The last parameter of the callable should always be a BatchInfo object. Per_batch_map should return (list[Tensor], list[Tensor], …). The length of each list in output should be same as the input. output_columns is required if the number of output lists is different from input.
input_columns (Union[str, list[str]], optional) – List of names of the input columns. The size of the list should match with signature of per_batch_map callable.
output_columns (Union[str, list[str]], optional) – List of names assigned to the columns outputted by the last operation. This parameter is mandatory if len(input_columns) != len(output_columns). The size of this list must match the number of output columns of the last operation. (default=None, output columns will have the same name as the input columns, i.e., the columns will be replaced).
column_order (Union[str, list[str]], optional) – List of all the desired columns to propagate to the child node. This list must be a subset of all the columns in the dataset after all operations are applied. The order of the columns in each row propagated to the child node follow the order they appear in this list. The parameter is mandatory if the len(input_columns) != len(output_columns). (default=None, all columns will be propagated to the child node, the order of the columns will remain the same).
pad_info (dict, optional) – Whether to perform padding on selected columns. pad_info={“col1”:([224,224],0)} would pad column with name “col1” to a tensor of size [224,224] and fill the missing with 0.
python_multiprocessing (bool, optional) – Parallelize Python function per_batch_map with multiple worker processes. This option could be beneficial if the function is computational heavy (default=False).

Returns

BatchDataset, dataset batched.

Examples

>>> # Create a dataset where every 100 rows is combined into a batch
>>> # and drops the last incomplete batch if there is one.
>>> dataset = dataset.batch(100, True)
>>> # resize image according to its batch number, if it's 5-th batch, resize to (5^2, 5^2) = (25, 25)
>>> def np_resize(col, batchInfo):
...     output = col.copy()
...     s = (batchInfo.get_batch_num() + 1) ** 2
...     index = 0
...     for c in col:
...         img = Image.fromarray(c.astype('uint8')).convert('RGB')
...         img = img.resize((s, s), Image.ANTIALIAS)
...         output[index] = np.array(img)
...         index += 1
...     return (output,)
>>> dataset = dataset.batch(batch_size=8, input_columns=["image"], per_batch_map=np_resize)

bucket_batch_by_length(column_names, bucket_boundaries, bucket_batch_sizes, element_length_function=None, pad_info=None, pad_to_bucket_boundary=False, drop_remainder=False)

Bucket elements according to their lengths. Each bucket will be padded and batched when they are full.

A length function is called on each row in the dataset. The row is then bucketed based on its length and bucket_boundaries. When a bucket reaches its corresponding size specified in bucket_batch_sizes, the entire bucket will be padded according to batch_info, and then batched. Each batch will be full, except for maybe the last batch for each bucket.

Parameters

column_names (list[str]) – Columns passed to element_length_function.
bucket_boundaries (list[int]) – A list consisting of the upper boundaries of the buckets. Must be strictly increasing. If there are n boundaries, n+1 buckets are created: One bucket for [0, bucket_boundaries[0]), one bucket for [bucket_boundaries[i], bucket_boundaries[i+1]) for each 0<i<n, and one bucket for [bucket_boundaries[n-1], inf).
bucket_batch_sizes (list[int]) – A list consisting of the batch sizes for each bucket. Must contain len(bucket_boundaries)+1 elements.
element_length_function (Callable, optional) – A function that takes in len(column_names) arguments and returns an int. If no value is provided, then len(column_names) must be 1, and the size of the first dimension of that column will be taken as the length (default=None).
pad_info (dict, optional) – Represents how to batch each column. The key corresponds to the column name, and the value must be a tuple of 2 elements. The first element corresponds to the shape to pad to, and the second element corresponds to the value to pad with. If a column is not specified, then that column will be padded to the longest in the current batch, and 0 will be used as the padding value. Any None dimensions will be padded to the longest in the current batch, unless if pad_to_bucket_boundary is True. If no padding is wanted, set pad_info to None (default=None).
pad_to_bucket_boundary (bool, optional) – If True, will pad each None dimension in pad_info to the bucket_boundary minus 1. If there are any elements that fall into the last bucket, an error will occur (default=False).
drop_remainder (bool, optional) – If True, will drop the last batch for each bucket if it is not a full batch (default=False).

Returns

BucketBatchByLengthDataset, dataset bucketed and batched by length.

num_classes()

Get the number of classes in a dataset.

Returns: int, number of classes.

output_types()

Get the types of output data.

Returns: list, list of data types.

parse_tree()

Internal method to parse the API tree into an IR tree.

Returns: DatasetNode, the root node of the IR tree.

project(columns)

Project certain columns in input dataset.

The specified columns will be selected from the dataset and passed down the pipeline in the order specified. The other columns are discarded.

Parameters: columns (Union[str, list[str]]) – List of names of the columns to project.
Returns: ProjectDataset, dataset projected.

Examples

>>> # dataset is an instance of Dataset object
>>> columns_to_project = ["column3", "column1", "column2"]
>>>
>>> # Create a dataset that consists of column3, column1, column2
>>> # in that order, regardless of the original order of columns.
>>> dataset = dataset.project(columns=columns_to_project)

rename(input_columns, output_columns)

Rename the columns in input datasets.

Parameters

input_columns (Union[str, list[str]]) – List of names of the input columns.
output_columns (Union[str, list[str]]) – List of names of the output columns.

Returns

RenameDataset, dataset renamed.

Examples

>>> # dataset is an instance of Dataset object.
>>> input_columns = ["input_col1", "input_col2", "input_col3"]
>>> output_columns = ["output_col1", "output_col2", "output_col3"]
>>>
>>> # Create a dataset where input_col1 is renamed to output_col1, and
>>> # input_col2 is renamed to output_col2, and input_col3 is renamed
>>> # to output_col3.
>>> dataset = dataset.rename(input_columns=input_columns, output_columns=output_columns)

repeat(count=None)

Repeat this dataset count times. Repeat indefinitely if the count is None or -1.

Note

The order of using repeat and batch reflects the number of batches. It is recommended that the repeat operation be used after the batch operation. If dataset_sink_mode is False, the repeat operation is invalid. If dataset_sink_mode is True, repeat count must be equal to the epoch of training. Otherwise, errors could occur since the amount of data is not the amount training requires.

Parameters: count (int) – Number of times the dataset is repeated (default=None).
Returns: RepeatDataset, dataset repeated.

Examples

>>> # dataset is an instance of Dataset object.
>>>
>>> # Create a dataset where the dataset is repeated for 50 epochs
>>> dataset = dataset.repeat(50)
>>>
>>> # Create a dataset where each epoch is shuffled individually
>>> dataset = dataset.shuffle(10)
>>> dataset = dataset.repeat(50)
>>>
>>> # Create a dataset where the dataset is first repeated for
>>> # 50 epochs before shuffling. The shuffle operator will treat
>>> # the entire 50 epochs as one big dataset.
>>> dataset = dataset.repeat(50)
>>> dataset = dataset.shuffle(10)

reset(): Reset the dataset for next epoch.

save(file_name, num_files=1, file_type='mindrecord')

Save the dynamic data processed by the dataset pipeline in common dataset format. Supported dataset formats: ‘mindrecord’ only

Implicit type casting exists when saving data as ‘mindrecord’. The table below shows how to do type casting.

Implicit Type Casting when Saving as ‘mindrecord’
Type in ‘dataset’	Type in ‘mindrecord’	Details
bool	None	Not supported
int8	int32
uint8	bytes(1D uint8)	Drop dimension
int16	int32
uint16	int32
int32	int32
uint32	int64
int64	int64
uint64	None	Not supported
float16	float32
float32	float32
float64	float64
string	string	Multi-dimensional string not supported

Note

To save the samples in order, set dataset’s shuffle to False and num_files to 1.
Before calling the function, do not use batch operator, repeat operator or data augmentation operators with random attribute in map operator.
Can not save number type tensor whose shape is dynamic.
Mindrecord does not support DE_UINT64, multi-dimensional DE_UINT8(drop dimension) nor multi-dimensional DE_STRING.

Parameters

file_name (str) – Path to dataset file.
num_files (int, optional) – Number of dataset files (default=1).
file_type (str, optional) – Dataset format (default=’mindrecord’).

shuffle(buffer_size)

Randomly shuffles the rows of this dataset using the following algorithm:

Make a shuffle buffer that contains the first buffer_size rows.
Randomly select an element from the shuffle buffer to be the next row propagated to the child node.
Get the next row (if any) from the parent node and put it in the shuffle buffer.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 until there are no more rows left in the shuffle buffer.

A seed can be provided to be used on the first epoch. In every subsequent epoch, the seed is changed to a new one, randomly generated value.

Parameters: buffer_size (int) – The size of the buffer (must be larger than 1) for shuffling. Setting buffer_size equal to the number of rows in the entire dataset will result in a global shuffle.
Returns: ShuffleDataset, dataset shuffled.
Raises: RuntimeError – If exist sync operators before shuffle.

Examples

>>> # dataset is an instance of Dataset object.
>>> # Optionally set the seed for the first epoch
>>> ds.config.set_seed(58)
>>> # Create a shuffled dataset using a shuffle buffer of size 4
>>> dataset = dataset.shuffle(4)

skip(count)

Skip the first N elements of this dataset.

Parameters: count (int) – Number of elements in the dataset to be skipped.
Returns: SkipDataset, dataset skipped.

Examples

>>> # dataset is an instance of Dataset object.
>>> # Create a dataset which skips first 3 elements from data
>>> dataset = dataset.skip(3)

split(sizes, randomize=True)

Split the dataset into smaller, non-overlapping datasets.

Parameters

sizes (Union[list[int], list[float]]) –
If a list of integers [s1, s2, …, sn] is provided, the dataset will be split into n datasets of size s1, size s2, …, size sn respectively. If the sum of all sizes does not equal the original dataset size, an error will occur. If a list of floats [f1, f2, …, fn] is provided, all floats must be between 0 and 1 and must sum to 1, otherwise an error will occur. The dataset will be split into n Datasets of size round(f1*K), round(f2*K), …, round(fn*K) where K is the size of the original dataset. If after rounding:
- Any size equals 0, an error will occur.
- The sum of split sizes < K, the difference will be added to the first split.
- The sum of split sizes > K, the difference will be removed from the first large enough split such that it will have at least 1 row after removing the difference.
randomize (bool, optional) – Determines whether or not to split the data randomly (default=True). If True, the data will be randomly split. Otherwise, each split will be created with consecutive rows from the dataset.

Note

There is an optimized split function, which will be called automatically when the dataset that calls this function is a MappableDataset.
Dataset should not be sharded if split is going to be called. Instead, create a DistributedSampler and specify a split to shard after splitting. If dataset is sharded after a split, it is strongly recommended to set the same seed in each instance of execution, otherwise each shard may not be part of the same split (see Examples).
It is strongly recommended to not shuffle the dataset, but use randomize=True instead. Shuffling the dataset may not be deterministic, which means the data in each split will be different in each epoch. Furthermore, if sharding occurs after split, each shard may not be part of the same split.

Raises

RuntimeError – If get_dataset_size returns None or is not supported for this dataset.
RuntimeError – If sizes is list of integers and sum of all elements in sizes does not equal the dataset size.
RuntimeError – If sizes is list of float and there is a split with size 0 after calculations.
RuntimeError – If the dataset is sharded prior to calling split.
ValueError – If sizes is list of float and not all floats are between 0 and 1, or if the floats don’t sum to 1.

Returns

tuple(Dataset), a tuple of datasets that have been split.

Examples

>>> # Since many datasets have shuffle on by default, set shuffle to False if split will be called!
>>> dataset = ds.ImageFolderDataset(image_folder_dataset_dir, shuffle=False)
>>>
>>> # Set the seed, and tell split to use this seed when randomizing.
>>> # This is needed because sharding will be done later
>>> ds.config.set_seed(58)
>>> train_dataset, test_dataset = dataset.split([0.9, 0.1])
>>>
>>> # To shard the train dataset, use a DistributedSampler
>>> train_sampler = ds.DistributedSampler(10, 2)
>>> train_dataset.use_sampler(train_sampler)

>>>
>>> aug = Augment(0)
>>> dataset = dataset.sync_wait(condition_name="policy", callback=aug.update)
>>> dataset = dataset.map(operations=[aug.preprocess], input_columns=["input"])

...     assert data["input"][0] == count
...     count += batch_size
...     data = {"loss": count}
...     dataset.sync_update(condition_name="policy", data=data)

take(count=- 1)

Takes at most given numbers of elements from the dataset.

Note

If count is greater than the number of elements in the dataset or equal to -1, all the elements in dataset will be taken.
The order of using take and batch matters. If take is before batch operation, then take given number of rows; otherwise take given number of batches.

Parameters: count (int, optional) – Number of elements to be taken from the dataset (default=-1).
Returns: TakeDataset, dataset taken.

Examples

>>> # dataset is an instance of Dataset object.
