I was wondering, how to convert a string or path into something that can be fed into a hdf5 table. For example, I am returning a numpy img array, label, and path to the image, from a Pytorch dataloader, where the path to the image would look like this:
('mults/train/0/5678.ndpi/40x/40x-236247-16634-80384-8704.png',)
I basically want to feed it into a hdf5 table like this:
hdf5_file = h5py.File(path, mode='w')
hdf5_file.create_dataset(str(phase) + '_img_paths', (len(dataloaders_dict[phase]),))
I'm not really sure if what I want to do is feasible. Maybe I am wrong to feed into such data into a table.
I have tried:
hdf5_file.create_dataset(str(phase) + '_img_paths', (len(dataloaders_dict[phase]),),dtype="S10")
But get this error:
hdf5_file[str(phase) + '_img_paths'][i] = str(paths40x)

You have a couple of choices when it comes to saving string data:
I created an example that shows how to do this for both PyTables and h5py. It is built around the procedures referenced in your comments. I did not copy all of the code -- just what was necessary to retrieve file names and shuffle them. Also, the kaggle dataset I found has a different directory structure, so I modified cat_dog_train_path
variable to match.
from random import shuffle
import glob
shuffle_data = True # shuffle the addresses before saving
cat_dog_train_path = '.\PetImages\*\*.jpg'
# read addresses and labels from the 'train' folder
addrs = glob.glob(cat_dog_train_path, recursive=True)
print (len(addrs))
labels = [0 if 'cat' in addr else 1 for addr in addrs] # 0 = Cat, 1 = Dog
# to shuffle data
if shuffle_data:
c = list(zip(addrs, labels))
shuffle(c)
addrs, labels = zip(*c)
# Divide the data into 10% train only, no validation or test
train_addrs = addrs[0:int(0.1*len(addrs))]
train_labels = labels[0:int(0.1*len(labels))]
print ('Check glob list data:')
print (train_addrs[0])
print (train_addrs[-1])
import tables as tb
# Create a hdf5 file with PyTaables and create VLArrays
# filename to save the hdf5 file
hdf5_path = 'PetImages_data_1.h5'
with tb.File(hdf5_path, mode='w') as h5f:
train_files_ds = h5f.create_vlarray('/', 'train_files',
atom=tb.VLStringAtom() )
# loop over train addresses
for i in range(len(train_addrs)):
# print how many images are saved every 1000 images
if i % 500 == 0 and i > 1:
print ('Train data: {}/{}'.format(i, len(train_addrs)) )
addr = train_addrs[i]
train_files_ds.append(train_addrs[i].encode('utf-8'))
with tb.File(hdf5_path, mode='r') as h5f:
train_files_ds = h5f.root.train_files
print ('Check PyTables data:')
print (train_files_ds[0].decode('utf-8'))
print (train_files_ds[-1].decode('utf-8'))
import h5py
# Create a hdf5 file with h5py and create VLArrays
# filename to save the hdf5 file
hdf5_path = 'PetImages_data_2.h5'
with h5py.File(hdf5_path, mode='w') as h5f:
dt = h5py.special_dtype(vlen=str) # can use string_dtype() wiuth h5py 2.10
train_files_ds = h5f.create_dataset('/train_files', (len(train_addrs),),
dtype=dt )
# loop over train addresses
for i in range(len(train_addrs)):
# print how many images are saved every 1000 images
if i % 500 == 0 and i > 1:
print ('Train data: {}/{}'.format(i, len(train_addrs)) )
addr = train_addrs[i]
train_files_ds[i]= train_addrs[i]
with h5py.File(hdf5_path, mode='r') as h5f:
train_files_ds = h5f['train_files']
print ('Check h5py data:')
print (train_files_ds[0])
print (train_files_ds[-1])
