orbit.AbstractEvaluator

An abstract class defining the API required for evaluation.

orbit.AbstractEvaluator(
    name=None
)

Attributes
name	Returns the name of this module as passed or determined in the ctor. Note: This is not the same as the self.name_scope.name which includes parent module names.
name_scope	Returns a tf.name_scope instance for this class.
non_trainable_variables	Sequence of non-trainable variables owned by this module and its submodules. Note: this method uses reflection to find variables on the current instance and submodules. For performance reasons you may wish to cache the result of calling this method if you don't expect the return value to change.
submodules	Sequence of all sub-modules. Submodules are modules which are properties of this module, or found as properties of modules which are properties of this module (and so on). a = tf.Module() b = tf.Module() c = tf.Module() a.b = b b.c = c list(a.submodules) == [b, c] True list(b.submodules) == [c] True list(c.submodules) == [] True
trainable_variables	Sequence of trainable variables owned by this module and its submodules. Note: this method uses reflection to find variables on the current instance and submodules. For performance reasons you may wish to cache the result of calling this method if you don't expect the return value to change.
variables	Sequence of variables owned by this module and its submodules. Note: this method uses reflection to find variables on the current instance and submodules. For performance reasons you may wish to cache the result of calling this method if you don't expect the return value to change.

Methods

evaluate

View source

@abc.abstractmethod
evaluate(
    num_steps: tf.Tensor
) -> Optional[Output]

Implements num_steps steps of evaluation.

This method will by called the Controller to perform an evaluation. The num_steps parameter specifies the number of steps of evaluation to run, which is specified by the user when calling one of the Controller's evaluation methods. A special sentinel value of -1 is reserved to indicate evaluation should run until the underlying data source is exhausted.

Args
num_steps	The number of evaluation steps to run. Note that it is up to the model what constitutes a "step". Evaluations may also want to support "complete" evaluations when num_steps == -1, running until a given data source is exhausted.

Returns
Either None, or a dictionary mapping names to Tensors or NumPy values. If a dictionary is returned, it will be written to logs and as TensorBoard summaries. The dictionary may also be nested, which will generate a hierarchy of summary directories.

with_name_scope

@classmethod
with_name_scope(
    method
)

Decorator to automatically enter the module name scope.

class MyModule(tf.Module):
  @tf.Module.with_name_scope
  def __call__(self, x):
    if not hasattr(self, 'w'):
      self.w = tf.Variable(tf.random.normal([x.shape[1], 3]))
    return tf.matmul(x, self.w)

Using the above module would produce tf.Variables and tf.Tensors whose names included the module name:

mod = MyModule()
mod(tf.ones([1, 2]))
<tf.Tensor: shape=(1, 3), dtype=float32, numpy=..., dtype=float32)>
mod.w
<tf.Variable 'my_module/Variable:0' shape=(2, 3) dtype=float32,
numpy=..., dtype=float32)>

Args
method	The method to wrap.

Returns
The original method wrapped such that it enters the module's name scope.
