Summary of changes
- Data partition capability is available in PR#98. Now we can define logical data partitions to manage the train/val/test datasets.
- We make storage backends pluggable in PR#66. You can try to integrate your own storage backend within TransferQueue interface.
TransferQueueControlleris greatly simplified. We disentangle the data retrieval logic fromTransferQueueControllerPR#101. Now you can implement your ownSamplerto control how to consume the data.- The initialization of TransferQueue is optimized.
- TransferQueue can be installed through pypi:
pip install TransferQueue - Add CI for TransferQueue.
- Update docs.
