Image processing in Tensor flow TFX pipelines


I am trying to get a Tensorflow TFX pipeline up and running using the MNIST dataset.

# Imports
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from keras.datasets import mnist
import tensorflow as tf
from tfx import v1 as tfx
import os
from tfx.components import ImportExampleGen

from platform import python_version
python_version() #'3.8.8'

# Load the data - 60,000 training examples and 10,000 testing examples
(train_x, train_y), (test_x, test_y) = mnist.load_data()

Setup pipeline paths

_pipeline_root = './pipeline'
_data_root = './data'
if not os.path.isdir(_pipeline_root) and not os.path.isdir(_data_root):
    !mkdir {_pipeline_root}
    !mkdir {_data_root}

Write the data to TF.record format and save in eval and train dirs. NOTE that the MNIST data starts as a numpy array 28x28 and is converted to a bytestring to enable it to be encoded as part of the Tf.record.


def _bytes_feature(value):
    """Returns a bytes_list from a string / byte."""
    if isinstance(value, type(tf.constant(0))): # if value ist tensor
        value = value.numpy() # get value of tensor
    return tf.train.Feature(bytes_list=tf.train.BytesList(value=[value]))

def _int64_feature(value):
    """Returns an int64_list from a bool / enum / int / uint."""
    return tf.train.Feature(int64_list=tf.train.Int64List(value=[value]))



def serialize_array(array):
    array = tf.io.serialize_tensor(array)
    return array

def image_label_to_tf_train(image, label):

    image_shape = np.shape(image)
    #define the dictionary -- the structure -- of our single example
    data = {
        'height': _int64_feature(image_shape[0]),
        'width': _int64_feature(image_shape[1]),
        'raw_image' : _bytes_feature(serialize_array(image)),
        'label' : _int64_feature(label)
    }
    #create an Example, wrapping the single features
    return tf.train.Example(features=tf.train.Features(feature=data))

def write_images_to_tfr_short(images, labels, filename:str="images", folder = ""):
    if not os.path.isdir(folder):
        !mkdir {folder}
    filename= folder + "/" + filename+".tfrecords"
    writer = tf.io.TFRecordWriter(filename) #create a writer that'll store our data to disk
    count = 0

    for index in range(len(images)):

        #get the data we want to write
        current_image = images[index]
        current_label = labels[index]

        out = image_label_to_tf_train(image=current_image, label=current_label)
        writer.write(out.SerializeToString())
        count += 1

    writer.close()
    print(f"Wrote {count} elements to TFRecord")
    return count

The next stage is to call the transform component which uses the preprocessing_fn. This function should process all the data so for example divide the image array by 255 is a standard feature process. But the image is still as a bytestring and I can't for the life of me figure out how to turn it back into an array. The below is what I have tried.

def preprocessing_fn(inputs):
    """tf.transform's callback function for preprocessing inputs.
    Args:
        inputs: map from feature keys to raw not-yet-transformed features.
    Returns:
        Map from string feature key to transformed feature operations.
    """
    

    # Initialize outputs dictionary
    outputs = {}
    
    
    raw_image_dataset = inputs[_IMAGE_KEY]
    
    
    img = tf.io.decode_raw(raw_image_dataset, tf.int64)
    
    
    outputs[_IMAGE_KEY] = img
  
    
    
    outputs[_LABEL_KEY] = tf.cast(inputs[_LABEL_KEY], tf.int64)



    return outputs

I get the following error:

I know the label feature is working as I can call the below code and get a print as so....

transform = tfx.components.Transform(
    examples=example_gen.outputs['examples'],
    schema=schema_gen.outputs['schema'],
    module_file=os.path.abspath(_mnist_transform_module))
context.run(transform, enable_cache=False)
# Get the URI of the output artifact representing the transformed examples
train_uri = os.path.join(transform.outputs['transformed_examples'].get()[0].uri, 'Split-train')

# Get the list of files in this directory (all compressed TFRecord files)
tfrecord_filenames = [os.path.join(train_uri, name)
                      for name in os.listdir(train_uri)]

# Create a `TFRecordDataset` to read these files
dataset = tf.data.TFRecordDataset(tfrecord_filenames, compression_type="GZIP")

# Decode the first record and print output
for tfrecord in dataset.take(1):
  serialized_example = tfrecord.numpy()
  example = tf.train.Example()
  example.ParseFromString(serialized_example)
  print(example)

IF I remove the lines:

img = tf.io.decode_raw(raw_image_dataset, tf.int64)
    
    
    outputs[_IMAGE_KEY] = img

I get printed

features {
  feature {
    key: "label"
    value {
      int64_list {
        value: 5
      }
    }
  }
}

This shows what I am doing to the label feature is working but I really can't figure how to transform the image bytes. Part of the issue is I'm not completely sure what the format is as it's just a tensor which is pretty opaque. It seems given the label operation I'm operating on a column of data effectively but again, can't figure the correct operation or syntax


Solution

  • For any future viewers this works

    raw_image_dataset = tf.map_fn(fn = lambda x : tf.io.parse_tensor(x[0], tf.uint8, name=None), elems = raw_image_dataset, fn_output_signature = tf.TensorSpec((28,28),dtype=tf.uint8,    name=None), infer_shape = True)
        raw_image_dataset = tf.cast(raw_image_dataset, tf.int64)
        outputs[_IMAGE_KEY] = raw_image_dataset
