Getting started

pip install robustnessgym

Note: some parts of Robustness Gym rely on optional dependencies. If you know which optional dependencies you'd like to install, you can do so using something like pip install robustnessgym[dev,text] instead. See setup.py for a full list of optional dependencies.

What is Robustness Gym?

Robustness Gym is being developed to address challenges in evaluating machine learning models today, with tools to evaluate and visualize the quality of machine learning models.

Along with Meerkat, we make it easy for you to load in any kind of data (text, images, videos, time-series) and quickly evaluate how well your models are performing.

Load data into a Meerkat DataPanel

from robustnessgym import DataPanel

# Any Huggingface dataset
dp = DataPanel.load_huggingface('boolq')

# Custom datasets
dp = DataPanel.from_csv(...)
dp = DataPanel.from_pandas(...)
dp = DataPanel.from_jsonl(...)
dp = DataPanel.from_feather(...)

# Coming soon: any WILDS dataset
# from meerkat.contrib.wilds import get_wilds_datapanel
# dp = get_wilds_datapanel("fmow", root_dir="/datasets/", split="test")

Run common workflows

Spacy

from robustnessgym import DataPanel, lookup
from robustnessgym.ops import SpacyOp

dp = DataPanel.load_huggingface('boolq')

# Run the Spacy pipeline on the 'question' column of the dataset
spacy = SpacyOp()
dp = spacy(dp=dp, columns=['question'])
# adds a new column that is auto-named
# "SpacyOp(lang=en_core_web_sm, neuralcoref=False, columns=['passage'])"

# Grab the Spacy column from the DataPanel using the lookup
spacy_column = lookup(dp, spacy, ['question'])

Stanza

from robustnessgym import DataPanel, lookup
from robustnessgym.ops import StanzaOp

dp = DataPanel.load_huggingface('boolq')

# Run the Stanza pipeline on the 'question' column of the dataset
stanza = StanzaOp()
dp = stanza(dp=dp, columns=['question'])
# adds a new column that is auto-named "StanzaOp(columns=['question'])"

# Grab the Stanza column from the DataPanel using the lookup
stanza_column = lookup(dp, stanza, ['question'])

Custom Operation (Single Output)

# Or, create your own Operation
from robustnessgym import DataPanel, Operation, Id, lookup

dp = DataPanel.load_huggingface('boolq')

# A function that capitalizes text
def capitalize(batch: DataPanel, columns: list):
    return [text.capitalize() for text in batch[columns[0]]]

# Wrap in an Operation: `process_batch_fn` accepts functions that have
# exactly 2 arguments: batch and columns, and returns a tuple of outputs
op = Operation(
    identifier=Id('CapitalizeOp'),
    process_batch_fn=capitalize,
)

# Apply to a DataPanel
dp = op(dp=dp, columns=['question'])

# Look it up when you need it
capitalized_text = lookup(dp, op, ['question'])

Custom Operation (Multiple Outputs)

from robustnessgym import DataPanel, Operation, Id, lookup

dp = DataPanel.load_huggingface('boolq')

# A function that capitalizes and upper-cases text: this will
# be used to add two columns to the DataPanel
def capitalize_and_upper(batch: DataPanel, columns: list):
    return [text.capitalize() for text in batch[columns[0]]], \
           [text.upper() for text in batch[columns[0]]]

# Wrap in an Operation: `process_batch_fn` accepts functions that have
# exactly 2 arguments: batch and columns, and returns a tuple of outputs
op = Operation(
    identifier=Id('ProcessingOp'),
    output_names=['capitalize', 'upper'],  # tell the Operation the name of the two outputs
    process_batch_fn=capitalize_and_upper,
)

# Apply to a DataPanel
dp = op(dp=dp, columns=['question'])

# Look them up when you need them
capitalized_text = lookup(dp, op, ['question'], 'capitalize')
upper_text = lookup(dp, op, ['question'], 'upper')

Create Evaluations

Out-of-the-box Subpopulations

from robustnessgym import DataPanel
from robustnessgym import LexicalOverlapSubpopulation

dp = DataPanel.load_huggingface('boolq')

# Create a subpopulation that buckets examples based on length
lexo_sp = LexicalOverlapSubpopulation(intervals=[(0., 0.1), (0.1, 0.2)])

slices, membership = lexo_sp(dp=dp, columns=['question'])
# `slices` is a list of 2 DataPanel objects
# `membership` is a matrix of shape (n x 2)

Custom Subpopulation

from robustnessgym import DataPanel, ScoreSubpopulation, lookup
from robustnessgym.ops import SpacyOp

dp = DataPanel.load_huggingface('boolq')

def length(batch: DataPanel, columns: list):
    try:
        # Take advantage of previously stored Spacy information
        return [len(doc) for doc in lookup(batch, SpacyOp, columns)] 
    except AttributeError:
        # If unavailable, fall back to splitting text
        return [len(text.split()) for text in batch[columns[0]]]

# Create a subpopulation that buckets examples based on length
length_sp = ScoreSubpopulation(intervals=[(0, 10), (10, 20)], score_fn=length)

slices, membership = length_sp(dp=dp, columns=['question'])
# `slices` is a list of 2 DataPanel objects
# `membership` is a matrix of shape (n x 2)
