class gobbli.model.mtdnn.MTDNN(data_dir=None, load_existing=False, use_gpu=False, nvidia_visible_devices='all', logger=None, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: gobbli.model.base.BaseModel, gobbli.model.mixin.TrainMixin, gobbli.model.mixin.PredictMixin

Classifier wrapper for Microsoft’s MT-DNN: https://github.com/namisan/mt-dnn

Create a model.

Parameters
  • data_dir (Optional[Path]) – Optional path to a directory used to store model data. If not given, a unique directory under GOBBLI_DIR will be created and used.

  • load_existing (bool) – If True, data_dir should be a directory that was previously used to create a model. Parameters will be loaded to match the original model, and user-specified model parameters will be ignored. If False, the data_dir must be empty if it already exists.

  • use_gpu (bool) – If True, use the nvidia-docker runtime (https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker) to expose NVIDIA GPU(s) to the container. Will cause an error if the computer you’re running on doesn’t have an NVIDIA GPU and/or doesn’t have the nvidia-docker runtime installed.

  • nvidia_visible_devices (str) – Which GPUs to make available to the container; ignored if use_gpu is False. If not ‘all’, should be a comma-separated string: ex. 1,2.

  • logger (Optional[Logger]) – If passed, use this logger for logging instead of the default module-level logger.

  • **kwargs – Additional model-specific parameters to be passed to the model’s init() method.

build()

Perform any pre-setup that needs to be done before running the model (building Docker images, etc).

property class_weights_dir

The root directory used to store initial model weights (before fine-tuning). These should generally be some pretrained weights made available by model developers. This directory will NOT be created by default; models should download their weights and remove the weights directory if the download doesn’t finish properly.

Most models making use of this directory will have multiple sets of weights and will need to store those in subdirectories under this directory.

Return type

Path

Returns

The path to the class-wide weights directory.

data_dir()
Return type

Path

Returns

The main data directory unique to this instance of the model.

property image_tag
Return type

str

Returns

The Docker image tag to be used for the MT-DNN container.

property info_path
Return type

Path

Returns

The path to the model’s info file, containing information about the model including the type of model, gobbli version it was trained using, etc.

init(params)[source]

See gobbli.model.base.BaseModel.init().

MT-DNN parameters:

  • max_seq_length (int): The maximum total input sequence length after WordPiece tokenization. Sequences longer than this will be truncated, and sequences shorter than this will be padded. Default: 128

  • mtdnn_model (str): Name of a pretrained MT-DNN model to use. See MTDNN_MODEL_FILES for a listing of available MT-DNN models.

property logger
Return type

Logger

Returns

A logger for derived models to use.

property metadata_path
Return type

Path

Returns

The path to the model’s metadata file containing model-specific parameters.

classmethod model_class_dir()
Return type

Path

Returns

A directory shared among all classes of the model.

predict(predict_input, predict_dir_name=None)

Runs prediction on new data using params containing in the given gobbli.io.PredictInput.

Parameters
  • predict_input (PredictInput) – Contains various parameters needed to determine how to run prediction and what data to predict for.

  • predict_dir_name (Optional[str]) – Optional name to store prediction input and output under. The directory is always created under the model’s data_dir. If a name is not given, a unique name is generated via a UUID. If a name is given, that directory must not already exist.

Return type

PredictOutput

predict_dir()

The directory to be used for data related to prediction (weights, predictions, etc)

Return type

Path

Returns

Path to the prediction data directory.

train(train_input, train_dir_name=None)

Trains a model using params in the given gobbli.io.TrainInput. The training process varies depending on the model, but in general, it includes the following steps:

  • Update weights using the training dataset

  • Evaluate performance on the validation dataset.

  • Repeat for a number of epochs.

  • When finished, report loss/accuracy and return the trained weights.

Parameters
  • train_input (TrainInput) – Contains various parameters needed to determine how to train and what data to train on.

  • train_dir_name (Optional[str]) – Optional name to store training input and output under. The directory is always created under the model’s data_dir. If a name is not given, a unique name is generated via a UUID. If a name is given, that directory must not already exist.

Return type

TrainOutput

Returns

Output of training.

train_dir()

The directory to be used for data related to training (data files, etc).

Return type

Path

Returns

Path to the training data directory.

property weights_dir
Return type

Path

Returns

The directory containing pretrained weights for this instance.
