v0.2.0

FastAI v0.2.0

Diff since v0.1.0

0.2.0

Added

• High-level API "FasterAI"
  • dataset recipes
  • learning method helpers
  • Find datasets and learning methods based on Blocks: finddatasets, findlearningmethods
  • loaddataset for quickly loading data containers from configured recipes
• Data container recipes (DatasetRecipe, loadrecipe)
• Documentation setions for FasterAI interfaces:
  • Discovery
  • Blocks and encodings
• New interfaces
  • blockbackbone creates a default backbone for an input block
• Support for tabular data along with recipes and learning methods:
  • Tabular classification tutorial
  • TabularPreprocessing, TableRow, TableDataset, TabularClassificiationSingle, TabularRegression

Changed

• Documentation sections to reference FasterAI interfaces:
  • README
  • Introduction
  • Data containers
  • Combined how-tos on training into a single page
• Breaking changes to methodlearner:
  • now accepts callbacks as kwarg
  • validdata no longer keyword
  • model and backbone now kwargs; isbackbone removed. if neither backbone or model are given, uses blockbackbone for default backbone.
  • see updated docstring for details
