tf.compat.v1.lookup.StaticVocabularyTable

String to Id table that assigns out-of-vocabulary keys to hash buckets.

Inherits From: StaticVocabularyTable, TrackableResource

tf.compat.v1.lookup.StaticVocabularyTable( initializer, num_oov_buckets, lookup_key_dtype=None, name=None, experimental_is_anonymous=False )

For example, if an instance of StaticVocabularyTable is initialized with a string-to-id initializer that maps:

init = tf.lookup.KeyValueTensorInitializer(  keys=tf.constant(['emerson', 'lake', 'palmer']),  values=tf.constant([0, 1, 2], dtype=tf.int64)) table = tf.lookup.StaticVocabularyTable(  init,  num_oov_buckets=5)

The Vocabulary object will performs the following mapping:

  • emerson -> 0
  • lake -> 1
  • palmer -> 2
  • <other term> -> bucket_id, where bucket_id will be between 3 and 3 + num_oov_buckets - 1 = 7, calculated by: hash(<term>) % num_oov_buckets + vocab_size

If input_tensor is:

input_tensor = tf.constant(["emerson", "lake", "palmer",  "king", "crimson"]) table[input_tensor].numpy() array([0, 1, 2, 6, 7])

If initializer is None, only out-of-vocabulary buckets are used.

Example usage:

num_oov_buckets = 3 vocab = ["emerson", "lake", "palmer", "crimnson"] import tempfile f = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False) f.write('\n'.join(vocab).encode('utf-8')) f.close()
 
init = tf.lookup.TextFileInitializer(  f.name,  key_dtype=tf.string, key_index=tf.lookup.TextFileIndex.WHOLE_LINE,  value_dtype=tf.int64, value_index=tf.lookup.TextFileIndex.LINE_NUMBER) table = tf.lookup.StaticVocabularyTable(init, num_oov_buckets) table.lookup(tf.constant(["palmer", "crimnson" , "king",  "tarkus", "black", "moon"])).numpy() array([2, 3, 5, 6, 6, 4])

The hash function used for generating out-of-vocabulary buckets ID is Fingerprint64.

Note that the out-of-vocabulary bucket IDs always range from the table size up to size + num_oov_buckets - 1 regardless of the table values, which could cause unexpected collisions:

init = tf.lookup.KeyValueTensorInitializer(  keys=tf.constant(["emerson", "lake", "palmer"]),  values=tf.constant([1, 2, 3], dtype=tf.int64)) table = tf.lookup.StaticVocabularyTable(  init,  num_oov_buckets=1) input_tensor = tf.constant(["emerson", "lake", "palmer", "king"]) table[input_tensor].numpy() array([1, 2, 3, 3])

initializer A TableInitializerBase object that contains the data used to initialize the table. If None, then we only use out-of-vocab buckets.
num_oov_buckets Number of buckets to use for out-of-vocabulary keys. Must be greater than zero. If out-of-vocab buckets are not required, use StaticHashTable instead.
lookup_key_dtype Data type of keys passed to lookup. Defaults to initializer.key_dtype if initializer is specified, otherwise tf.string. Must be string or integer, and must be castable to initializer.key_dtype.
name A name for the operation (optional).
experimental_is_anonymous Whether to use anonymous mode for the table (default is False). In anonymous mode, the table resource can only be accessed via a resource handle. It can't be looked up by a name. When all resource handles pointing to that resource are gone, the resource will be deleted automatically.

ValueError when num_oov_buckets is not positive.
TypeError when lookup_key_dtype or initializer.key_dtype are not integer or string. Also when initializer.value_dtype != int64.

initializer

key_dtype The table key dtype.
name The name of the table.
resource_handle Returns the resource handle associated with this Resource.
value_dtype The table value dtype.

Methods

lookup

View source

lookup( keys, name=None )

Looks up keys in the table, outputs the corresponding values.

It assigns out-of-vocabulary keys to buckets based in their hashes.

Args
keys Keys to look up. May be either a SparseTensor or dense Tensor.
name Optional name for the op.

Returns
A SparseTensor if keys are sparse, a RaggedTensor if keys are ragged, otherwise a dense Tensor.

Raises
TypeError when keys doesn't match the table key data type.

size

View source

size( name=None )

Compute the number of elements in this table.

__getitem__

View source

__getitem__( keys )

Looks up keys in a table, outputs the corresponding values.
