Sequential MAppers for Sequences of HEterogeneous Dictionaries

SMASHED

Sequential MAppers for Sequences of HEterogeneous Dictionaries is a set of Python interfaces designed to apply transformations to samples in datasets, which are often implemented as sequences of dictionaries.

Example of Usage

Mappers are initialized and then applied sequentially. In the following example, we create a mapper that is applied to a samples, each containing a sequence of strings. The mappers are responsible for the following operations.

1. Tokenize each sequence, cropping it to a maximum length if necessary.
2. Stride sequences together to a maximum length or number of samples.
3. Add padding symbols to sequences and attention masks.
4. Concatenate all sequences from a stride into a single sequence.

Dataset Interfaces Available

The initial version of SMASHED supports two interfaces for dataset:

1. interfaces.simple.Dataset: A simple dataset representation that is just a list of python dictionaries with some extra convenience methods to make it work with SMASHED. You can crate a simple dataset by passing a list of dictionaries to interfaces.simple.Dataset.
2. HuggingFace datasets library. SMASHED mappers work with any datasets from HuggingFace, whether it is a regular or iterable dataset.

Developing SMASHED

To contribute to SMASHED, make sure to:

1. (If you are not part of AI2) Fork the repository on GitHub.
2. Clone it locally.
3. Create a new branch in for the new feature.
4. Install development dependencies with pip install dev-requirements.txt.
5. Add your new mapper or feature.
6. Add unit tests.
7. Run tests, linting, and type checking from the root directory of the repo:
   1. Style: flake8 . (Should return no error)
   2. Style: black . (Should format for you)
   3. Style: isort . (Should sort imports for you)
   4. Static type check: mypy . (Should return no error)
   5. Tests: pytest -v --color=yes tests/ (Should return no error)
8. Commit, push, and create a pull request.
