dgs.models.dataset.posetrack21.PoseTrack21BaseDataset.validate_params

PoseTrack21BaseDataset.validate_params(validations: dict[str, list[str | type | tuple[str, any] | Callable[[any, any], bool]]], attrib_name: str = 'params') None

Given per key validations, validate this module’s parameters.

Throws exceptions on invalid or nonexistent params.

Parameters:
  • attrib_name – name of the attribute to validate, should be “params” and only for base class “config”

  • validations

    Dictionary with the name of the parameter as key and a list of validations as value. Every validation in this list has to be true for the validation to be successful.

    The value for the validation can have multiple types:
    • A lambda function or other type of callable

    • A string as reference to a predefined validation function with one argument

    • None for existence

    • A tuple with a string as reference to a predefined validation function with one additional argument

    • It is possible to write nested validations, but then every nested validation has to be a tuple, or a tuple of tuples. For convenience, there are implementations for “any”, “all”, “not”, “eq”, “neq”, and “xor”. Those can have data which is a tuple containing other tuples or validations, or a single validation.

    • Lists and other iterables can be validated using “forall” running the given validations for every item in the input. A single validation or a tuple of (nested) validations is accepted as data.

Example

This example is an excerpt of the validation for the BaseModule-configuration.

>>> validations = {
    "device": [
            str,
            ("any",
                [
                    ("in", ["cuda", "cpu"]),
                    ("instance", torch.device)
                ]
            )
        ],
        "print_prio": [("in", PRINT_PRIORITY)],
        "callable": (lambda value: value == 1),
    }

And within the class __init__() call:

>>> self.validate_params()
Raises:
