Python Inference Script(PyIS)

Python Inference Script is a Python package that enables developers to author machine learning workflows in Python and deploy without Python.

Various tools could be available for fast experimentation, for example sklearn, CNTK, Tensorflow, PyTorch and etc. However, when it comes to deployement, problems will emerge:

  • Is it optimized, fast or memory efficient?

  • Is the runtime or model compact enough for edge devices?

  • Is it easy to learn and cross-platform?

To solve those puzzles, the Python Inference Script(PyIS) is introduced.

Python Inference Script

Installation

Build and Install from Source

Instruction

Install from Pip (Coming Soon)

python -m pip install pyis-python --upgrade

Verification

Python Backend

# Python backend
from pyis.python import ops
from pyis.python.model_context import save, load

# create trie op
trie = ops.CedarTrie()
trie.insert('what time is it in Seattle?')
trie.insert('what is the time in US?')

# run trie match
query = 'what is the time in US?'
is_matched = trie.contains(query)

# serialize
save(trie, 'tmp/trie.pkl')

# load and run
trie = load('tmp/trie.pkl')
is_matched = trie.contains(query)

LibTorch Backend

# LibTorch backend
import torch
from pyis.torch import ops
from pyis.torch.model_context import save, load

# define torch model
class TrieMatcher(torch.nn.Module):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.trie = ops.CedarTrie()
        self.trie.insert('what time is it in Seattle?')
        self.trie.insert('what is the time in US?')

    def forward(self, query: str) -> bool:
        return self.trie.contains(query)

# create torch model
model = torch.jit.script(TrieMatcher())

# run trie match
query = 'what is the time in US?'
is_matched = model.forward(query)

# serialize
save(model, 'tmp/trie.pt')

# load and run
model = load('tmp/trie.pt')
is_matched = model.forward(query)
