WeakLabelModel

A library for training multiclass classifiers with weak labels

Installation

python3.7 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

Run code

See example of a call inside one of the add_queue scripts

Unittest

Run the unit tests with the make command

make test

Run Jupyter Notebooks

In order to run any notebook in this repository, first create a new kernel that will be available from the Jupyter Notebook.

# Load the virtual environment
source venv/bin/activate
# Create a new kernel
ipython kernel install --name "weaklabels" --user
# Open Jupyter
jupyter notebook

After opening or creating a notebook, you can select the "weaklabels" kernel in kernel -> Change kernel -> weaklabels

                        random_weak

Check that all datasets work

The python code in utils/data.py can be run in order to check that all datasets can be downloaded, preprocessed and a classifier can be trained on them. This can be done by calling the python code as a main file

python utils/data.py

Should output the following for each dataset

Testing all datasets
Evaluating iris[61] dataset
----------------
Dataset description:
    Dataset name: iris
    Sample size: 150
    Number of features: 4
    Number of classes: 3
Logistic Regression score = 0.9733333333333334

Upload to PyPi

Test and upload the code with the make command

make pypi

It may require user and password if these are not set in your home directory a file .pypirc
