as_file_like_object(*args, **kwargs) io.BytesIO[source]

Produces a file-like object corresponding to a zip archive affiliated with a given model. This method wraps is functionally similar to .save() - it saves a model into a temporary directory and produces a zip archive, then loads the result as a io.BytesIO object. The result of this function is also compatible with .load(), and cleanup is handled automatically.

Args:

*args, **kwargs (dict): Optional keyword arguments for saving.

Returns:
io.BytesIO: File like object holding an exported model in memory as

a io.BytesIO object.

as_bytes(*args, **kwargs) bytes[source]

Produces a bytes object corresponding to a zip archive affiliated with a given model. This method wraps is functionally similar to .save() - it saves a model into a temporary directory and produces a zip archive, then loads the result as a bytes object. The result of this function is also compatible with .load(), and cleanup is handled automatically.

Args:

*args, **kwargs (dict): Optional keyword arguments for saving.

Returns:

bytes: bytes object holding an exported model in memory.

run(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Run a model - this typically makes a single prediction and returns an object from the data model.

run_batch(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Run a model in batch mode - this typically ingests an iterable of inputs that can be applied to run & returns a list of data model objects that run ordinarily returns. A module may override this method to provide faster evaluation capabilities, e.g., by leveraging vectorization during prediction.

All provided args and kwargs that should be expanded with the batch should be provided as prebatched iterables. If a provided arg/kwarg is not provided as an iterable, it will be passed as is to all self contained run calls, which may be the case in some rare cases, such as runtime explanability enablement.

This function is intentionally kept as simple as possible. In order to maintain its simplicity, all argument iterables must be the same length, where the length of every provided iterable is presumed to be the batch size. If an iterable must be passed as arg to each run call, batch run must be called by wrapping it in another iterable and duplicating the iterable arg to match the size, or (ideally) overridden in the subclass as necessary.

Args:

*args: Variable length argument list to be passed directly to run(). **kwargs: Arbitrary keyword arguments to be passed directly to run().

Returns:

tuple: Iterable of prediction outputs, run as a batch.

timed_run(*args, num_seconds=None, num_iterations=None, **kwargs)[source]

Time a number of runs over set seconds or iterations.

Args:

*args (list): Will be passed to self.run. num_seconds (int): Minimum number of seconds to run timed_run over.

Will most likely be more than this value due to its waiting for the each call to self.run to finish.

num_iterations (int): Minimum number of iterations to run timed_run

over. Will run exactly this many times.

**kwargs (dict): Will be passed to self.run.

Returns:
int, int, caikit.core.data_model.DataBase: The first return value is

the total time spent in the self.run loop. The second return value is the total number of calls to self.run were made. The return value is the output of the module’s run method

Notes:

You can pass everything that should go to the run function normally using args/kwargs. Example: model.timed_run(“some example text”, num_seconds=60)

By default it will run for greater than or equal to 120 seconds.

stream(data_stream, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Lazily evaluate a run() on a given model by constructing a new data stream generator from the results. Note that we do not allow datastreams in args/kwargs. In rare cases, this may mean that stream() is not available, e.g., for keywords extraction. In these cases, stream() should be overridden in the subclass (module implementation) to allow and expand along multiple data streams.

Args:
data_stream (caikit.core.data_model.DataStream): Datastream to be

lazily sequentially processed by the module under consideration.

*args: Variable length argument list to be passed directly to run(). **kwargs: Arbitrary keyword arguments to be passed directly to run().

Args:
dataset_path (str): Path to where the input “gold set” dataset

lives. Most often this is .json file.

preprocess_func (method): Function used as proxy for any preliminary

steps that need to be taken to run the model on the input text. This helper function ultimately leads to the input to this module and may involve executing other modules.

detailed_metrics: boolean (Optional, defaults to False)

Only for ‘keywords’. Include partial scores and scores over every text in document.

labels: list (Optional, defaults to None)

Optional list of class labels to evaluate quality on. By default evaluation is done over all class labels. Using this, you can explicitly mention only a subset of labels to include in the quality evaluation.

function, depending on the associated evaluation_type. Reports things like precision, recall, and f1.

static _is_expandable_iterable(arg)[source]

Args:

arg (any): Argument to run_batch being considered.

Returns:
bool: True if the argument is a compatible iterable, False

otherwise.

_validate_and_extract_batch_size(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Returns:

int: Inferred batch size based on expandable iterables.

_validate_arg_and_verify_batch_size(val, current_batch_size)[source]

Check an arg value from args/kwargs. If we find that it’s an expandable iterable, see if it conflicts with what we know about the inferred batch size so far.

args:

static _build_kwargs_for_default_run_with_batch(fixed_kwargs, expanded_kwargs, idx)[source]

Similar to the previous function, but for kwargs. Note that we can just clone our fixed kwargs instead of cycling through them, because order doesn’t matter here.

Args:
fixed_args (dict): Noniterable valued kwargs - common across all

documents.

expanded_args (dict): Iterable valued kwargs - we’ll need to index

into these to get our doc kwarg.

Returns:

An AI task is a logical function signature which, when implemented, performs a task in some AI domain. The key property of a task is that the set of required input argument types and the output value type are consistent across all implementations of the task.

class InferenceMethodPtr[source]

Little container class that holds a method name and its flavor of streaming. i.e. the args to a @TaskClass.taskmethod decoration.

Decorates a module instancemethod and indicates whether the inputs and outputs should be handled as streams. This will trigger validation that the signature of this method is compatible with the task’s definition of input and output types.

The actual handling of validating the method and registering it is deferred until after the module class is created, which happens outside the context of this decoration.

classmethod deferred_method_decoration(module: Type)[source]

The decorator for AI Task classes.

This defines an output data model type for the task, and a minimal set of required inputs that all public models implementing this task must accept.

As an example, the caikit.interfaces.nlp.SentimentTask might look like:

    },
    streaming_parameters={
        "raw_documents": Iterable[caikit.interfaces.nlp.RawDocument]
    }
    unary_output_type=caikit.interfaces.nlp.SentimentPrediction
    streaming_output_type=Iterable[caikit.interfaces.nlp.SentimentPrediction]
)
class SentimentTask(caikit.TaskBase):
    pass

and a module that implements this task might have methods like:

@module(id="b9d98408-84c2-488c-8385-9d698effe60b", task=SentimentTask)
class MyModule(ModuleBase):

    @SentimentTask.taskmethod()

        # impl

    @SentimentTask.taskmethod(input_streaming=True, output_streaming=True)
    def run_bidi_stream(raw_documents: DataStream[caikit.interfaces.nlp.RawDocument])
