Zeef: Interactive Learning for Python

An interactive learning framework for data-centric AI.

Zeef is featured for

• Active learning - Off the shelf data selection algorithms to reduce the labor of data annotation.
• Continual learning - Easy to use APIs to prototype a continual learning workflow instantly.

Installation

pip install zeef

For the local development, you can install from the Anaconda environment by

conda env create -f environment.yml

Quick Start

We can start from the easiest example: random select data points from an unlabeled data pool.

from sklearn import svm

from zeef.data import Pool
from zeef.learner.sklearn import Learner
from zeef.strategy import RandomSampling

data_pool = Pool(unlabeled_data)  # generate the data pool.
# define the sampling strategy and the SVM learner.
strategy = RandomSampling(data_pool, learner=Learner(net=svm.SVC(probability=True)))

query_ids = strategy.query(1000)  # query 1k samples for labeling.
data_pool.label_by_ids(query_ids, data_labels)  # label the 1k samples.
strategy.learn()  # train the model using all the labeled data.
strategy.infer(test_data)  # evaluate the model.

A quick MNIST CNN example can be found in here. Run

python torch_al.py

to start the quick demonstration.
