Release 0.4.0

Major Features and Improvements

  • Added a combine_analyzer() that supports user provided combiner, conforming to beam.CombinFn(). This allows users to implement custom combiners (e.g. median), to complement analyzers (like min, max) that are prepackaged in TFT.
  • Quantiles Analyzer (tft.quantiles), with a corresponding tft.bucketize mapper.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • Depends on apache-beam[gcp]>=2.2,<3.
  • Fixes some KeyError issues that appeared in certain circumstances when one would call AnalyzeAndTransformDataset (due to a now-fixed Apache Beam [bug] (https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/BEAM/issues/BEAM-2966)).
  • Allow all functions that accept and return tensors, to accept an optional name scope, in line with TensorFlow coding conventions.
  • Update examples to construct input functions by hand instead of using helper functions.
  • Change scale_by_min_max/scale_to_0_1 to return the average(min, max) of the range in case all values are identical.
  • Added export of serving model to examples.
  • Use "core" version of feature columns (tf.feature_column instead of tf.contrib) in examples.
  • A few bug fixes and improvements for coders regarding Python 3.

Breaking changes

  • Requires pre-installed TensorFlow >= 1.4.
  • No longer distributing a WHL file in PyPI. Only doing a source distribution which should however be compatible with all platforms (ie you are still able to pip install tensorflow-transform and use requirements.txt or setup.py files for environment setup).
  • Some functions now introduce a new name scope when they did not before so the names of tensors may change. This will only affect you if you directly lookup tensors by name in the graph produced by tf.Transform.
  • Various Analyzer Specs (_NumericCombineSpec, _UniquesSpec, _QuantilesSpec) are now private. Analyzers are accessible only via the top-level TFT functions (min, max, sum, size, mean, var, uniques, quantiles).

Upcoming deprecations

  • The serving_input_fns on tensorflow_transform/saved/input_fn_maker.py will be removed on a future version and should not be used on new code, see the examples directory for details on how to migrate your code to define their own serving functions.

Release 0.3.1

Major Features and Improvements

  • We now provide helper methods for creating serving_input_receiver_fn for use with tf.estimator. These mirror the existing functions targeting the legacy tf.contrib.learn.estimators-- i.e. for each *_serving_input_fn() in input_fn_maker there is now also a *_serving_input_receiver_fn().

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • Introduced tft.apply_vocab this allows users to separately apply a single vocabulary (as generated by tft.uniques) to several different columns.
  • Provide a source distribution tar tensorflow-transform-X.Y.Z.tar.gz.

Breaking Changes

  • The default prefix for tft.string_to_int vocab_filename changed from vocab_string_to_int to vocab_string_to_int_uniques. To make your pipelines resilient to implementation details please set vocab_filename if you are using the generated vocab_filename on a downstream component.

Release 0.3.0

Major Features and Improvements

  • Added hash_strings mapper.
  • Write vocabularies as asset files instead of constants in the SavedModel.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • 'tft.tfidf' now adds 1 to idf values so that terms in every document in the corpus have a non-zero tfidf value.
  • Performance and memory usage improvement when running with Beam runners that use multi-threaded workers.
  • Performance optimizations in ExampleProtoCoder.
  • Depends on apache-beam[gcp]>=2.1.1,<3.
  • Depends on protobuf>=3.3<4.
  • Depends on six>=1.9,<1.11.

Breaking Changes

  • Requires pre-installed TensorFlow >= 1.3.
  • Removed tft.map use tft.apply_function instead (as needed).
  • Removed tft.tfidf_weights use tft.tfidf instead.
  • beam_metadata_io.WriteMetadata now requires a second pipeline argument (see examples).
  • A Beam bug will now affect users who call AnalyzeAndTransformDataset in certain circumstances. Roughly speaking, if you call beam.Pipeline() at some point (as all our examples do) you will not experience this bug. The bug is characterized by an error similar to KeyError: (u'AnalyzeAndTransformDataset/AnalyzeDataset/ComputeTensorValues/Extract[Maximum:0]', None) This bug will be fixed in Beam 2.2.

Release 0.1.10

Major Features and Improvements

  • Add json-example serving input functions to TF.Transform.
  • Add variance analyzer to tf.transform.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • Remove duplication in output of tft.tfidf.
  • Ensure ngrams output dense_shape is greater than or equal to 0.
  • Alters the behavior and interface of tensorflow_transform.mappers.ngrams.
  • Depends on apache-beam[gcp]=>2,<3.
  • Making TF Parallelism runner-dependent.
  • Fixes issue with csv serving input function.
  • Various performance and stability improvements.

Deprecations

  • tft.map will be removed on version 0.2.0, see the examples directory for instructions on how to use tft.apply_function instead (as needed).
  • tft.tfidf_weights will be removed on version 0.2.0, use tft.tfidf instead.

Release 0.1.9

Major Features and Improvements

  • Refactor internals to remove Column and Statistic classes

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • Remove collections from graph to avoid warnings
  • Return float32 from tfidf_weights
  • Update tensorflow_transform to use tf.saved_model APIs.
  • Add default values on example proto coder.
  • Various performance and stability improvements.
