Bases: InstanceOperator, ArtifactFetcherMixin

Task packs the different instance fields into dictionaries by their roles in the task.

input_fields
Type:

Union[Dict[str, str], List[str]]

Dictionary with string names of instance input fields and types of respective values.
In case a list is passed, each type will be assumed to be Any.
reference_fields
Type:

Union[Dict[str, str], List[str]]

Dictionary with string names of instance output fields and types of respective values.
In case a list is passed, each type will be assumed to be Any.
metrics

List of names of metrics to be used in the task.

Type:

List[str]

prediction_type
Type:

Optional[str]

Need to be consistent with all used metrics. Defaults to None, which means that it will
be set to Any.
defaults
Type:

Optional[Dict[str, Any]]

An optional dictionary with default values for chosen input/output keys. Needs to be
consistent with names and types provided in 'input_fields' and/or 'output_fields' arguments.
Will not overwrite values if already provided in a given instance.
The output instance contains three fields:

  1. “input_fields” whose value is a sub-dictionary of the input instance, consisting of all the fields listed in Arg ‘input_fields’.

  2. “reference_fields” – for the fields listed in Arg “reference_fields”.

  3. “metrics” – to contain the value of Arg ‘metrics’
