TabularRegressionData

class flash.tabular.regression.data.TabularRegressionData(train_input=None, val_input=None, test_input=None, predict_input=None, data_fetcher=None, transform=<class 'flash.core.data.io.input_transform.InputTransform'>, transform_kwargs=None, val_split=None, batch_size=None, num_workers=0, sampler=None, pin_memory=True, persistent_workers=False)[source]

The TabularRegressionData class is a DataModule with a set of classmethods for loading data for tabular regression.

classmethod from_csv(categorical_fields=None, numerical_fields=None, target_field=None, parameters=None, train_file=None, val_file=None, test_file=None, predict_file=None, input_cls=<class 'flash.tabular.regression.input.TabularRegressionCSVInput'>, transform=<class 'flash.core.data.io.input_transform.InputTransform'>, transform_kwargs=None, **data_module_kwargs)[source]

Creates a TabularRegressionData object from the given CSV files.

Note

The categorical_fields, numerical_fields, and target_field do not need to be provided if parameters are passed instead. These can be obtained from the parameters attribute of the TabularData object that contains your training data.

The targets will be extracted from the target_field in the CSV files. To learn how to customize the transforms applied for each stage, read our customizing transforms guide.

Parameters

  • categorical_fields (Union[str, List[str], None]) – The fields (column names) in the CSV files containing categorical data.

  • numerical_fields (Union[str, List[str], None]) – The fields (column names) in the CSV files containing numerical data.

  • target_field (Optional[str]) – The field (column name) in the CSV files containing the targets.

  • parameters (Optional[Dict[str, Any]]) – Parameters to use if categorical_fields, numerical_fields, and target_field are not provided (e.g. when loading data for inference or validation).

  • train_file (Optional[str]) – The path to the CSV file to use when training.

  • val_file (Optional[str]) – The path to the CSV file to use when validating.

  • test_file (Optional[str]) – The path to the CSV file to use when testing.

  • predict_file (Optional[str]) – The path to the CSV file to use when predicting.

  • input_cls (Type[Input]) – The Input type to use for loading the data.
