LightningDataModule
===================
A datamodule is a shareable, reusable class that encapsulates all the steps needed to process data:
.. raw:: html
<video width="100%" controls src="https://pl-bolts-doc-images.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pl_docs/pt_dm_vid.m4v"></video>
|
A datamodule encapsulates the five steps involved in data processing in PyTorch:
1. Download / tokenize / process.
2. Clean and (maybe) save to disk.
3. Load inside :class:`~torch.utils.data.Dataset`.
4. Apply transforms (rotate, tokenize, etc...).
5. Wrap inside a :class:`~torch.utils.data.DataLoader`.
|
This class can then be shared and used anywhere:
.. code-block:: python
from pl_bolts.datamodules import CIFAR10DataModule, ImagenetDataModule
model = LitClassifier()
trainer = Trainer()
imagenet = ImagenetDataModule()
trainer.fit(model, imagenet)
cifar10 = CIFAR10DataModule()
trainer.fit(model, cifar10)
---------------
Why do I need a DataModule?
---------------------------
In normal PyTorch code, the data cleaning/preparation is usually scattered across many files. This makes
sharing and reusing the exact splits, and transforms across projects.
Datamodules are for you if you ever asked the questions:
- what splits did you use?
- what transforms did you use?
- what normalization did you use?
- how did you prepare/tokenize the data?
--------------
What is a DataModule
--------------------
A DataModule is simply a collection of a train_dataloader, val_dataloader(s), test_dataloader(s) along with the
matching transforms and data processing/downloads steps required.
Here's a simple PyTorch example:
.. code-block:: python
# regular PyTorch
test_data = MNIST(PATH, train=False, download=True)
train_data = MNIST(PATH, train=True, download=True)
train_data, val_data = random_split(train_data, [55000, 5000])
train_loader = DataLoader(train_data, batch_size=32)
val_loader = DataLoader(val_data, batch_size=32)
test_loader = DataLoader(test_data, batch_size=32)
The equivalent DataModule just organizes the same exact code, but makes it reusable across projects.
.. code-block:: python
DataLoader(self.mnist_train, batch_size=32)
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def __init__(self, data_dir: str = PATH, batch_size):
super().__init__()
self.batch_size = batch_size
def setup(self, stage=None):
self.mnist_test = MNIST(self.data_dir, train=False)
mnist_full = MNIST(self.data_dir, train=True)
self.mnist_train, self.mnist_val = random_split(mnist_full, [55000, 5000])
def train_dataloader(self):
return DataLoader(self.mnist_train, batch_size=self.batch_size)
def val_dataloader(self):
return DataLoader(self.mnist_val, batch_size=self.batch_size)
def test_dataloader(self):
return DataLoader(self.mnist_test, batch_size=self.batch_size)
But now, as the complexity of your processing grows (transforms, multiple-GPU training), you can
let Lightning handle those details for you while making this dataset reusable so you can share with
colleagues or use in different projects.
.. code-block:: python
mnist = MNISTDataModule(PATH)
model = LitClassifier()
trainer = Trainer()
trainer.fit(model, mnist)
Here's a more realistic, complex DataModule that shows how much more reusable the datamodule is.
.. code-block:: python
import pytorch_lightning as pl
from torch.utils.data import random_split, DataLoader
# Note - you must have torchvision installed for this example
from torchvision.datasets import MNIST
from torchvision import transforms
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def __init__(self, data_dir: str = './'):
super().__init__()
self.data_dir = data_dir
self.transform = transforms.Compose([
transforms.ToTensor(),
transforms.Normalize((0.1307,), (0.3081,))
])
# self.dims is returned when you call dm.size()
# Setting default dims here because we know them.
# Could optionally be assigned dynamically in dm.setup()
self.dims = (1, 28, 28)
def prepare_data(self):
# download
MNIST(self.data_dir, train=True, download=True)
MNIST(self.data_dir, train=False, download=True)
def setup(self, stage=None):
# Assign train/val datasets for use in dataloaders
if stage == 'fit' or stage is None:
mnist_full = MNIST(self.data_dir, train=True, transform=self.transform)
self.mnist_train, self.mnist_val = random_split(mnist_full, [55000, 5000])
# Optionally...
# self.dims = tuple(self.mnist_train[0][0].shape)
# Assign test dataset for use in dataloader(s)
if stage == 'test' or stage is None:
self.mnist_test = MNIST(self.data_dir, train=False, transform=self.transform)
# Optionally...
# self.dims = tuple(self.mnist_test[0][0].shape)
def train_dataloader(self):
return DataLoader(self.mnist_train, batch_size=32)
def val_dataloader(self):
return DataLoader(self.mnist_val, batch_size=32)
def test_dataloader(self):
return DataLoader(self.mnist_test, batch_size=32)
.. note:: ``setup`` expects a string arg ``stage``. It is used to separate setup logic for ``trainer.fit`` and ``trainer.test``.
---------------
LightningModule API
-------------------
To define a DataModule define 5 methods:
- prepare_data (how to download(), tokenize, etc...)
- setup (how to split, etc...)
- train_dataloader
- val_dataloader(s)
- test_dataloader(s)
prepare_data
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Use this method to do things that might write to disk or that need to be done only from a single GPU in distributed
settings.
- download
- tokenize
- etc...
.. code-block:: python
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def prepare_data(self):
# download
MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=True, download=True, transform=transforms.ToTensor())
MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=False, download=True, transform=transforms.ToTensor())
.. warning:: `prepare_data` is called from a single GPU. Do not use it to assign state (`self.x = y`).
setup
^^^^^
There are also data operations you might want to perform on every GPU. Use setup to do things like:
- count number of classes
- build vocabulary
- perform train/val/test splits
- etc...
.. code-block:: python
import pytorch_lightning as pl
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def setup(self, stage: Optional[str] = None):
# Assign Train/val split(s) for use in Dataloaders
if stage == 'fit' or stage is None:
mnist_full = MNIST(self.data_dir, train=True, download=True)
self.mnist_train, self.mnist_val = random_split(mnist_full, [55000, 5000])
self.dims = self.mnist_train[0][0].shape
# Assign Test split(s) for use in Dataloaders
if stage == 'test' or stage is None:
self.mnist_test = MNIST(self.data_dir, train=False, download=True)
self.dims = getattr(self, 'dims', self.mnist_test[0][0].shape)
.. warning:: `setup` is called from every GPU. Setting state here is okay.
train_dataloader
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Use this method to generate the train dataloader. This is also a good place to place default transformations.
.. code-block:: python
import pytorch_lightning as pl
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def train_dataloader(self):
transforms = transform_lib.Compose([
transform_lib.ToTensor(),
transform_lib.Normalize(mean=(0.5,), std=(0.5,)),
])
return DataLoader(self.train_dataset, transform=transforms, batch_size=64)
However, to decouple your data from transforms you can parametrize them via `__init__`.
.. code-block:: python
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def __init__(self, train_transforms, val_transforms, test_transforms):
self.train_transforms = train_transforms
self.val_transforms = val_transforms
self.test_transforms = test_transforms
val_dataloader
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Use this method to generate the val dataloader. This is also a good place to place default transformations.
.. code-block:: python
import pytorch_lightning as pl
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def val_dataloader(self):
transforms = transform_lib.Compose([
transform_lib.ToTensor(),
transform_lib.Normalize(mean=(0.5,), std=(0.5,)),
])
return DataLoader(self.val_dataset, transform=transforms, batch_size=64)
test_dataloader
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Use this method to generate the test dataloader. This is also a good place to place default transformations.
.. code-block:: python
import pytorch_lightning as pl
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def test_dataloader(self):
transforms = transform_lib.Compose([
transform_lib.ToTensor(),
transform_lib.Normalize(mean=(0.5,), std=(0.5,)),
])
return DataLoader(self.test_dataset, transform=transforms, batch_size=64)
------------------
Using a DataModule
------------------
The recommended way to use a DataModule is simply:
.. code-block:: python
dm = MNISTDataModule()
model = Model()
trainer.fit(model, dm)
trainer.test(datamodule=dm)
If you need information from the dataset to build your model, then run `prepare_data` and `setup` manually (Lightning
still ensures the method runs on the correct devices)
.. code-block:: python
dm = MNISTDataModule()
dm.prepare_data()
dm.setup('fit')
model = Model(num_classes=dm.num_classes, width=dm.width, vocab=dm.vocab)
trainer.fit(model, dm)
dm.setup('test')
trainer.test(datamodule=dm)
----------------
Datamodules without Lightning
-----------------------------
You can of course use DataModules in plain PyTorch code as well.
.. code-block:: python
# download, etc...
dm = MNISTDataModule()
dm.prepare_data()
# splits/transforms
dm.setup('fit')
# use data
for batch in dm.train_dataloader():
...
for batch in dm.val_dataloader():
...
# lazy load test data
dm.setup('test')
for batch in dm.test_dataloader():
...
But overall, DataModules encourage reproducibility by allowing all details of a dataset to be specified in a unified
structure.
