torch-nested

Easily manipulate torch.Tensors inside highly nested data-structures.

You may want to consider using torch.nested, but if you are working with nested dicts, lists, tuples, etc. of torch.Tensors, here is the package for you.

A proper documentation is coming. Until then, a basic example is shown below, and you can look at the docstrings or tests of this package for more information.

Basic usage

Given a nested structure that contains torch.Tensor, this package makes it easy to access these Tensors and work with them:

import torch
from torch_nested import NestedTensors


INPUT_DATA = [
    (
        torch.ones(3), 
        torch.zeros(2)
    ),
    torch.ones((2, 2, 2)),
    {
        "foo": torch.ones(2), 
        "bar": [], 
        "har": "rar"
    },
    1
]

tensors = NestedTensors(INPUT_DATA)

# Original data preserved in .data-member
assert tensors.data == INPUT_DATA

# Simple accessing and setting
for i, tensor in enumerate(tensors):
    tensors[i] = tensor + i 

# Has basic dunders
assert len(tensors) == 4
assert torch.all(next(tensors) == torch.ones(3))

Calling print(tensors.shape()) would yield:

torch_nested.Size(
  [
    (
      torch.Size([3]),
      torch.Size([2])
    ),
    torch.Size([2, 2, 2]),
    {
      foo: torch.Size([2]),
      bar: None,
      har: None
    },
    None
  ]
)

Supported data-structures

The following data-structures are supported so far:

• torch.Tensor
• dict
• list
• tuple
• None
• Any class with a .tensors-attribute
• Any class with a .data-attribute, even if it isn't a torch.Tensor

For example

class ObjWithTensors:
    tensors = [torch.ones(2), torch.zeros(2)]

class ObjWithData:
    data = [torch.ones(2), torch.zeros(2)]

tensors = NestedTensors([ObjWithTensors(), ObjWithData()])

Running print(tensors.size()) would result in the following output:

NestedSize(
  [
    ObjWithTensors(
      tensors: [
        torch.Size([2]),
        torch.Size([2])
      ]
    ),
    ObjWithData(
      data: [
        torch.Size([2]),
        torch.Size([2])
      ]
    )
  ]
)

More data-structures will be supported in the future. Any data that is of an unsupported type will not have its Tensors readable or writable, and NestedShape will show None there.
