explog 0.0.2

Experiment Logger

ExpLog - A Minimal Experiment Logger

Installation

pip install explog

Then, import explog as xl.

Logging

Use exp = xl.exp(config) to initialize an experiment and exp.log(...) to log statistics.

import explog as xl
import random

config = {'num_epochs': 100, 'learning_rate': 1e-3, 'batch_size': 32}

exp = xl.exp(config)

for epoch in range(config['num_epochs']):
    loss = random.random() * 1.05 ** (- epoch)
    exp.log(epoch=epoch, loss=loss)

• NB: Using xl.log(...) instead of exp.log(...) automatically logs to the latest experiment.
• NB: Both xl.exp(...) and xl.log(...) accept dictionary or kwargs arguments.

Exploring runs

Retrieve dataframe of experiments using xl.exps().

Exploring logs

Retrieve dataframe of logs using xl.logs().

Plotting

Use dataframe of logs from xl.logs() to make your plots.

import explog as xl
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

logs = xl.logs('epoch', 'loss')
logs = logs.groupby('epoch').mean()

plt.plot(logs.index, logs['loss'])
plt.show()

Weights & Biases users

Use aliases run = xl.init(config) for exp = xl.exp(config) and xl.runs for xl.exps.

> run = xl.init(config)
> run.log(step=0)
> xl.runs()
