Data

Bases: ChainMap[str, Any]

A class which contains prediction and batch data.

This class is intentionally not @traceable.

Data objects can be interacted with as if they are regular dictionaries. They are however, actually a combination of two dictionaries, a dictionary for trace communication and a dictionary of prediction+batch data. In general, data written into the trace dictionary will be logged by the system, whereas data in the pred+batch dictionary will not. We therefore provide helper methods to write entries into Data which are intended or not intended for logging.

d = fe.util.Data({"a":0, "b":1, "c":2})
a = d["a"]  # 0
d.write_with_log("d", 3)
d.write_without_log("e", 5)
d.write_with_log("a", 4)
a = d["a"]  # 4
r = d.read_logs(extra_keys={"c"})  # {"c":2, "d":3, "a":4}

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
batch_data Optional[MutableMapping[str, Any]]

The batch data dictionary. In practice this is itself often a ChainMap containing separate prediction and batch dictionaries.

None
