FeatureConnector
for videos, encoding frames individually on disk.
Inherits From: Sequence
, FeatureConnector
tfds.features.Video(
shape: Sequence[int],
encoding_format: str = 'png',
ffmpeg_extra_args: Sequence[str] = ()
)
Video: The image connector accepts as input a 4 dimensional tf.uint8
array
representing a video, a sequence of paths to encoded frames, or a path or a
file object that can be decoded with ffmpeg. Note that not all formats in
ffmpeg support reading from pipes, so providing a file object might fail.
Furthermore, if a path is given that is not on the local file system, we first
copy it to a temporary local file before passing it to ffmpeg.
Output:
video
: tf.Tensor of typetf.uint8
and shape [num_frames, height, width, channels], where channels must be 1 or 3
Example:
- In the DatasetInfo object:
features=features.FeatureDict({
'video': features.Video(shape=(None, 64, 64, 3)),
})
- During generation, you can use any of:
yield {
'video': np.ones(shape=(128, 64, 64, 3), dtype=np.uint8),
}
or list of frames:
yield {
'video': ['path/to/frame001.png', 'path/to/frame002.png'],
}
or path to video (including os.PathLike
objects):
yield {
'video': '/path/to/video.avi',
}
or file object (or bytes
):
yield {
'video': tf.io.gfile.GFile('/complex/path/video.avi'),
}
Args | |
---|---|
shape
|
tuple of ints, the shape of the video (num_frames, height, width, channels), where channels is 1 or 3. |
encoding_format
|
The video is stored as a sequence of encoded images. You can use any encoding format supported by image_feature.Feature. |
ffmpeg_extra_args
|

Methods
decode_batch_example
decode_batch_example(
tfexample_data
)
Decode multiple features batched in a single tf.Tensor.
This function is used to decode features wrapped in
tfds.features.Sequence()
.
By default, this function apply decode_example
on each individual
elements using tf.map_fn
. However, for optimization, features can
overwrite this method to apply a custom batch decoding.
Args | |
---|---|
tfexample_data
|
Same tf.Tensor inputs as decode_example , but with
and additional first dimension for the sequence length.
|
Returns | |
---|---|
tensor_data
|
Tensor or dictionary of tensor, output of the tf.data.Dataset object |
decode_example
decode_example(
serialized_example, decoders=None
)
Decode the serialize examples.
Args | |
---|---|
serialized_example
|
Nested dict of tf.Tensor
|
decoders
|
Nested dict of Decoder objects which allow to customize the
decoding. The structure should match the feature structure, but only
customized feature keys need to be present. See
the guide
for more info.
|
Returns | |
---|---|
example
|
Nested dict containing the decoded nested examples.
|
decode_ragged_example
decode_ragged_example(
tfexample_data
)
Decode nested features from a tf.RaggedTensor.
This function is used to decode features wrapped in nested
tfds.features.Sequence()
.
By default, this function apply decode_batch_example
on the flat values
of the ragged tensor. For optimization, features can
overwrite this method to apply a custom batch decoding.
Args | |
---|---|
tfexample_data
|
tf.RaggedTensor inputs containing the nested encoded
examples.
|
Returns | |
---|---|
tensor_data
|
The decoded tf.RaggedTensor or dictionary of tensor,
output of the tf.data.Dataset object
|
encode_example
encode_example(
video_or_path_or_fobj
)
Converts the given image into a dict convertible to tf example.
from_config
@classmethod
from_config( root_dir: str ) -> "FeatureConnector"
Reconstructs the FeatureConnector from the config file.
Usage:
features = FeatureConnector.from_config('path/to/features.json')
Args | |
---|---|
root_dir
|
Directory containing to the features.json file. |
Returns | |
---|---|
The reconstructed feature instance. |
from_json
@classmethod
from_json( value:
tfds.typing.Json
) -> "FeatureConnector"
FeatureConnector factory.
This function should be called from the tfds.features.FeatureConnector
base class. Subclass should implement the from_json_content
.
Example:
feature = tfds.features.FeatureConnector.from_json(
{'type': 'Image', 'content': {'shape': [32, 32, 3], 'dtype': 'uint8'} }
)
assert isinstance(feature, tfds.features.Image)
Args | |
---|---|
value
|
dict(type=, content=) containing the feature to restore.
Match dict returned by to_json .
|
Returns | |
---|---|
The reconstructed FeatureConnector. |
from_json_content
@classmethod
from_json_content( value:
tfds.typing.Json
) -> "Video"
FeatureConnector factory (to overwrite).
Subclasses should overwritte this method. importing the feature connector from the config.
This function should not be called directly. FeatureConnector.from_json
should be called instead.
This function See existing FeatureConnector for example of implementation.
Args | |
---|---|
value
|
FeatureConnector information. Match the dict returned by
to_json_content .
|
Returns | |
---|---|

).content
: is specific to each feature connector and defined into_json_content
. Can contain nested sub-features (like fortfds.features.FeaturesDict
