mindspore.dataset.Multi30kDataset

class mindspore.dataset.Multi30kDataset(dataset_dir, usage=None, language_pair=None, num_samples=None, num_parallel_workers=None, shuffle=None, num_shards=None, shard_id=None, cache=None)[source]

Multi30k dataset.

The generated dataset has two columns [text, translation] . The tensor of column text is of the string type. The tensor of column translation is of the string type.

Parameters
  • dataset_dir (str) – Path to the root directory that contains the dataset.

  • usage (str, optional) – Acceptable usages include 'train', 'test', 'valid' or 'all'. Default: None , will read all samples.

  • language_pair (Sequence[str, str], optional) – Acceptable language_pair include ['en', 'de'], ['de', 'en']. Default: None , means ['en', 'de'].

  • num_samples (int, optional) – The number of images to be included in the dataset. Default: None , will read all samples.

  • num_parallel_workers (int, optional) – Number of worker threads to read the data. Default: None , will use global default workers(8), it can be set by mindspore.dataset.config.set_num_parallel_workers() .

  • shuffle (Union[bool, Shuffle], optional) –

    Whether to shuffle the dataset. Default: None , means mindspore.dataset.Shuffle.GLOBAL . If False is provided, no shuffling will be performed. If True is provided, it is the same as setting to mindspore.dataset.Shuffle.GLOBAL . If Shuffle is provided, the effect is as follows:

    • Shuffle.GLOBAL : Shuffle both the files and samples.

    • Shuffle.FILES : Shuffle files only.

  • num_shards (int, optional) – Number of shards that the dataset will be divided into. Default: None . When this argument is specified, num_samples reflects the max sample number of per shard.

  • shard_id (int, optional) – The shard ID within num_shards . Default: None . This argument can only be specified when num_shards is also specified.

  • cache (DatasetCache, optional) – Use tensor caching service to speed up dataset processing. More details: Single-Node Data Cache . Default: None , which means no cache is used.

Raises
  • RuntimeError – If dataset_dir does not contain data files.

  • ValueError – If usage is not 'train', 'test', 'valid' or 'all'.

  • TypeError – If language_pair is not of type Sequence[str, str].

  • RuntimeError – If num_samples is less than 0.

  • RuntimeError – If num_parallel_workers exceeds the max thread numbers.

  • RuntimeError – If num_shards is specified but shard_id is None.

  • RuntimeError – If shard_id is specified but num_shards is None.

  • ValueError – If shard_id is not in range of [0, num_shards ).

Examples

>>> import mindspore.dataset as ds

>>> data = ds.Multi30kDataset(dataset_dir=multi30k_dataset_dir, usage='all', language_pair=['de', 'en'])

About Multi30k dataset:

Multi30K is a multilingual dataset that features approximately 31,000 standardized images described in multiple languages. The images are sourced from Flickr and each image comes with sentence descripitions in both English and German, as well as descriptions in other languages. Multi30k is used primarily for training and testing in tasks such as image captioning, machine translation, and visual question answering.

You can unzip the dataset files into the following directory structure and read by MindSpore’s API.
