Pytorch Datastream

This is a simple library for creating readable dataset pipelines and reusing best practices for issues such as imbalanced datasets. There are just two components to keep track of: Dataset and Datastream.

Dataset is a simple mapping between an index and an example. It provides pipelining of functions in a readable syntax originally adapted from tensorflow 2's tf.data.Dataset.

Datastream combines a Dataset and a sampler into a stream of examples. It provides a simple solution to oversampling / stratification, weighted sampling, and finally converting to a torch.utils.data.DataLoader.

Install

poetry add pytorch-datastream

Or, for the old-timers:

pip install pytorch-datastream

Usage

The list below is meant to showcase functions that are useful in most standard and non-standard cases. It is not meant to be an exhaustive list. See the documentation for a more extensive list on API and usage.

Dataset.from_subscriptable

Dataset
    .map
    .subset
    .split
    .cache
    .with_columns

Datastream.merge

    .map
    .data_loader
    .zip_index
    .update_weights_
    .update_example_weight_

Merge / stratify / oversample datastreams

The fruit datastreams given below repeatedly yields the string of its fruit type.

>>> datastream = Datastream.merge([
...     (apple_datastream, 2),
...     (pear_datastream, 1),
...     (banana_datastream, 1),
... ])
>>> next(iter(datastream.data_loader(batch_size=8)))
['apple', 'apple', 'pear', 'banana', 'apple', 'apple', 'pear', 'banana']

Zip independently sampled datastreams

The fruit datastreams given below repeatedly yields the string of its fruit type.

>>> datastream = Datastream.zip([
...     apple_datastream,
...     Datastream.merge([pear_datastream, banana_datastream]),
... ])
>>> next(iter(datastream.data_loader(batch_size=4)))
[('apple', 'pear'), ('apple', 'banana'), ('apple', 'pear'), ('apple', 'banana')]
