automl.defs module

class Context(parent=None)

Bases: object

Context enables cross-component data sharing and communication. Any AutoML component can set and get properties into the context.

If you specify a parent context, the new context will inherit all properties from the parent.

Parameters: parent – the parent context.
Returns: A Context object

add_command_module(module: dlmed.hci.reg.CommandModule)

close_trace()

exception_occurred(issuer, msg=None)

Call this method to report that an exception has occurred.

Parameters

issuer – the issuer of this request
msg – the description of the exception

Returns:

get_prop(key: str, default=None)

Get a property from the context. If the specified property does not exist, returns the specified default.

Parameters

key – key of the property
default – default value of the property

Returns: property value

get_stop_message()

Return the reason of ‘stop work’.

Returns: reason of ‘stop work’

set_prop(key: str, value)

Set a property into the context

Parameters

key – key of the property
value – value of the property

Returns:

set_trace(dest, file_name)

stop_work(issuer, msg: str)

Call this method to ask to stop work. Note: it is up to the workflow engine whether this ask is honored.

Parameters

issuer – the issuer of this request
msg – the reason of the request

Returns:

stop_work_asked() → bool

Whether ‘stop work’ has been asked.

Returns: whether ‘stop work’ has been asked

trace(issuer: object, msg: str, print_to_console=False)

class Recommendation(rec_id, result: automl.defs.SearchResult)

Bases: object

Recommendation is a recommendation for AutoML execution.

Parameters

rec_id – the unique ID of the recommendation.
result – the search result

class SearchRange(minv, maxv=None)

Bases: object

A SearchRange is the basic building block of search space.

Parameters

minv – min value of the range.
maxv – max value of the range. If not specified, it is set to the same value as minv

Returns

A SearchRange object

class SearchResult(space: automl.defs.SearchSpace, values: dict)

Bases: object

SearchResult is a set of values from the search space.

Parameters

space – the SearchSpace that the values are from.
values – the dict of PRL => value

Returns

A SearchResult object

dump(prefix='\t')

Prints the content of the search result.

Parameters: prefix (str) – prefix string for each line of output

class SearchSpace(name: str, targets: dict)

Bases: object

SearchSpace defines the space of candidates for searchable parameters. It is a dictionary of PRL (Parameter Range Locator) to a list of SearchRanges. Each PRL represents a unique search parameter.

Parameters

name – name of the search space.
targets – the dict of PRL => [SearchRange]

Returns

A SearchSpace object

dump(prefix='\t')

Prints the content of the search space.

Parameters: prefix (str) – prefix string for each line of output
