I want to use Tensorflow's Dataset API to read TFRecords file of lists of variant length. Here is my code.
def _int64_feature(value):
# value must be a numpy array.
return tf.train.Feature(int64_list=tf.train.Int64List(value=value))
def main1():
# Write an array to TFrecord.
# a is an array which contains lists of variant length.
a = np.array([[0, 54, 91, 153, 177],
[0, 50, 89, 147, 196],
[0, 38, 79, 157],
[0, 49, 89, 147, 177],
[0, 32, 73, 145]])
writer = tf.python_io.TFRecordWriter('file')
for i in range(a.shape[0]): # i = 0 ~ 4
x_train = a[i]
feature = {'i': _int64_feature(np.array([i])), 'data': _int64_feature(x_train)}
# Create an example protocol buffer
example = tf.train.Example(features=tf.train.Features(feature=feature))
# Serialize to string and write on the file
writer.write(example.SerializeToString())
writer.close()
# Check TFRocord file.
record_iterator = tf.python_io.tf_record_iterator(path='file')
for string_record in record_iterator:
example = tf.train.Example()
example.ParseFromString(string_record)
i = (example.features.feature['i'].int64_list.value)
data = (example.features.feature['data'].int64_list.value)
#data = np.fromstring(data_string, dtype=np.int64)
print(i, data)
# Use Dataset API to read the TFRecord file.
def _parse_function(example_proto):
keys_to_features = {'i' :tf.FixedLenFeature([], tf.int64),
'data':tf.FixedLenFeature([], tf.int64)}
parsed_features = tf.parse_single_example(example_proto, keys_to_features)
return parsed_features['i'], parsed_features['data']
ds = tf.data.TFRecordDataset('file')
iterator = ds.map(_parse_function).make_one_shot_iterator()
i, data = iterator.get_next()
with tf.Session() as sess:
print(i.eval())
print(data.eval())
Check TFRecord file
[0] [0, 54, 91, 153, 177]
[1] [0, 50, 89, 147, 196]
[2] [0, 38, 79, 157]
[3] [0, 49, 89, 147, 177]
[4] [0, 32, 73, 145]
But it showed the following error when I tried to use Dataset API to read TFRecord file.
tensorflow.python.framework.errors_impl.InvalidArgumentError: Name:
, Key: data, Index: 0. Number of int64 values != expected.
Values size: 5 but output shape: []
Thank you.
UPDATE:
I tried to use the following code to read TFRecord with Dataset API, but both of them failed.
def _parse_function(example_proto):
keys_to_features = {'i' :tf.FixedLenFeature([], tf.int64),
'data':tf.VarLenFeature(tf.int64)}
parsed_features = tf.parse_single_example(example_proto, keys_to_features)
return parsed_features['i'], parsed_features['data']
ds = tf.data.TFRecordDataset('file')
iterator = ds.map(_parse_function).make_one_shot_iterator()
i, data = iterator.get_next()
with tf.Session() as sess:
print(sess.run([i, data]))
or
def _parse_function(example_proto):
keys_to_features = {'i' :tf.VarLenFeature(tf.int64),
'data':tf.VarLenFeature(tf.int64)}
parsed_features = tf.parse_single_example(example_proto, keys_to_features)
return parsed_features['i'], parsed_features['data']
ds = tf.data.TFRecordDataset('file')
iterator = ds.map(_parse_function).make_one_shot_iterator()
i, data = iterator.get_next()
with tf.Session() as sess:
print(sess.run([i, data]))
And the error:
