morpheus.stages.postprocess.filter_detections_stage.FilterDetectionsStage

Bases: morpheus.pipeline.single_port_stage.SinglePortStage

Filter message by a classification threshold.

The FilterDetectionsStage is used to filter rows from a dataframe based on values in a tensor using a specified criteria. Rows in the meta dataframe are excluded if their associated value in the probs array is less than or equal to threshold.

This stage can operate in two different modes set by the copy argument. When the copy argument is True (default), rows that meet the filter criteria are copied into a new dataframe. When False sliced views are used instead.

Setting copy=True should be used when the number of matching records is expected to be both high and in non-adjacent rows. In this mode, the stage will generate only one output message for each incoming message, regardless of the size of the input and the number of matching records. However this comes at the cost of needing to allocate additional memory and perform the copy. Note: In most other stages, messages emitted contain a reference to the original MessageMeta emitted into the pipeline by the source stage. When using copy mode this won’t be the case and could cause the original MessageMeta to be deallocated after this stage.

Setting copy=False should be used when either the number of matching records is expected to be very low or are likely to be contained in adjacent rows. In this mode, slices of contiguous blocks of rows are emitted in multiple output messages. Performing a slice is relatively low-cost, however for each incoming message the number of emitted messages could be high (in the worst case scenario as high as half the number of records in the incoming message). Depending on the downstream stages, this can cause performance issues, especially if those stages need to acquire the Python GIL.

Methods

_build(builder, in_ports_streams)[source]

This function is responsible for constructing this stage’s internal mrc.SegmentObject object. The input of this function contains the returned value from the upstream stage.

The input values are the mrc.Builder for this stage and a StreamPair tuple which contain the input mrc.SegmentObject object and the message data type.

Parameters

buildermrc.Builder

mrc.Builder object for the pipeline. This should be used to construct/attach the internal mrc.SegmentObject.

in_ports_streamsmorpheus.pipeline.pipeline.StreamPair

List of tuples containing the input mrc.SegmentObject object and the message data type.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.pipeline.StreamPair]

List of tuples containing the output mrc.SegmentObject object from this stage and the message data type.

accepted_types()[source]

Accepted input types for this stage are returned.

Returns

typing.Tuple[morpheus.pipeline.messages.MultiMessage, ]

Accepted input types.

build(builder, do_propagate=True)[source]

Build this stage.

Parameters

buildermrc.Builder

MRC segment for this stage.

do_propagatebool, optional

Whether to propagate to build output stages, by default True.

can_build(check_ports=False)[source]

Determines if all inputs have been built allowing this node to be built.

Parameters

check_portsbool, optional

Check if we can build based on the input ports, by default False.

Returns

bool

True if we can build, False otherwise.

filter_copy(x)[source]

This function uses a threshold value to filter the messages.

Parameters

xmorpheus.pipeline.messages.MultiMessage

Response message with probabilities calculated from inference results.

Returns

morpheus.pipeline.messages.MultiMessage

A new message containing a copy of the rows above the threshold.

filter_slice(x)[source]

This function uses a threshold value to filter the messages.

Parameters

xmorpheus.pipeline.messages.MultiMessage

Response message with probabilities calculated from inference results.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.messages.MultiMessage]

List of filtered messages.

get_all_input_stages()[source]

Get all input stages to this stage.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.pipeline.StreamWrapper]

All input stages.

get_all_inputs()[source]

Get all input senders to this stage.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.pipeline.Sender]

All input senders.

get_all_output_stages()[source]

Get all output stages from this stage.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.pipeline.StreamWrapper]

All output stages.

get_all_outputs()[source]

Get all output receivers from this stage.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.pipeline.Receiver]

All output receivers.

get_needed_columns()[source]

Stages which need to have columns inserted into the dataframe, should populate the self._needed_columns dictionary with mapping of column names to morpheus.common.TypeId. This will ensure that the columns are allocated and populated with null values.

property has_multi_input_ports: bool

Indicates if this stage has multiple input ports.

Returns

bool

True if stage has multiple input ports, False otherwise.

property has_multi_output_ports: bool

Indicates if this stage has multiple output ports.

Returns

bool

True if stage has multiple output ports, False otherwise.

property input_ports: List[morpheus.pipeline.receiver.Receiver]

Input ports to this stage.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.pipeline.Receiver]

Input ports to this stage.

property is_built: bool

Indicates if this stage has been built.

Returns

bool

True if stage is built, False otherwise.

async join()[source]

Awaitable method that stages can implement this to perform cleanup steps when pipeline is stopped. Typically this is called after stop during a graceful shutdown, but may not be called if the pipeline is terminated.

property name: str

The name of the stage. Used in logging. Each derived class should override this property with a unique name.

Returns

str

Name of a stage.

on_start()[source]

This function can be overridden to add usecase-specific implementation at the start of any stage in the pipeline.

property output_ports: List[morpheus.pipeline.sender.Sender]

Output ports from this stage.

Returns

typing.List[morpheus.pipeline.pipeline.Sender]

Output ports from this stage.

async start_async()[source]

This function is called along with on_start during stage initialization. Allows stages to utilize the asyncio loop if needed.

stop()[source]

Stages can implement this to perform cleanup steps when pipeline is stopped.

supports_cpp_node()[source]

Specifies whether this Stage is capable of creating C++ nodes. During the build phase, this value will be combined with CppConfig.get_should_use_cpp() to determine whether or not a C++ node is created. This is an instance method to allow runtime decisions and derived classes to override base implementations.

property unique_name: str

Unique name of stage. Generated by appending stage id to stage name.

Returns

str

Unique name of stage.
