[Unreleased]

Added

Fixed

Security

[4.9.7] - 2024-10-30

Added

  • New datasets.

Changed

  • CroissantBuilder's API to generate TFDS datasets from Croissant files.

Deprecated

Removed

Fixed

  • Versions for existing datasets.

Security

[4.9.6] - 2024-06-04

Added

  • Full support for Python 3.12.

[4.9.5] - 2024-05-30

Added

  • Support to download and prepare datasets using the Parquet data format.

    builder = tfds.builder('fashion_mnist', file_format='parquet')
    builder.download_and_prepare()
    ds = builder.as_dataset(split='train')
    print(next(iter(ds)))
  • tfds.data_source is pickable, thus working smoothly with PyGrain. Learn more by following the tutorial.

  • TFDS plays nicely with Croissant. Learn more by following the recipe.

Changed

Deprecated

Fixed

Security

[4.9.4] - 2023-12-16

Added

  • A new CroissantBuilder which initializes a DatasetBuilder based on a Croissant metadata file.
  • New conversion options between different bounding boxes formats.
  • Better support for HuggingfaceDatasetBuilder.
  • A script to convert a dataset from one format to another.

Changed

Deprecated

  • Python 3.9 support. TFDS now uses Python 3.10

Removed

Fixed

Security

[4.9.3] - 2023-09-08

Added

Changed

  • Hugging Face datasets accept None values for any features. TFDS has no tfds.features.Optional, so None values are converted to default values. Those default values used to be 0 and 0.0 for int and float. Now, it's -inf as defined by NumPy (e.g., np.iinfo(np.int32).min or np.finfo(np.float32).min). This avoids ambiguous values when 0 and 0.0 exist in the values of the dataset. The roadmap is to implement tfds.features.Optional.

Deprecated

  • Python 3.8 support. As per NEP 29, TFDS now uses Python>=3.9.

Removed

Fixed

Security

[4.9.2] - 2023-04-13

Added

  • [Experimental] A list of freeform text tags can now be attached to a BuilderConfig. For example:
    BUILDER_CONFIGS = [
        tfds.core.BuilderConfig(name="foo", tags=["foo", "live"]),
        tfds.core.BuilderConfig(name="bar", tags=["bar", "old"]),
    ]
    The tags are recorded with the dataset metadata and can later be retrieved using the info object:
    builder.info.config_tags  # ["foo", "live"]
    This feature is experimental and there are no guidelines on tags format.

Changed

Deprecated

Removed

Fixed

  • Fixed generated proto files (see issue 4858).

Security

[4.9.1] - 2023-04-11

Added

Changed

Deprecated

Removed

Fixed

  • The installation on macOS now works (see issues 4805 and 4852). The ArrayRecord dependency is lazily loaded, so the TensorFlow-less path is not possible at the moment on macOS. A fix for this will follow soon.

Security

[4.9.0] - 2023-04-04

Added

Changed

  • Support for tensorflow=2.12.

Deprecated

Removed

Security

[4.8.3] - 2023-02-27

Added

Changed

Deprecated

  • Python 3.7 support: this version and future version use Python 3.8.

Removed

Fixed

  • Flag ignore_verifications from Hugging Face's datasets.load_dataset is deprecated, and used to cause errors in tfds.load(huggingface:foo).

Security

[4.8.2] - 2023-01-17

Deprecated

  • Python 3.7 support: this is the last version of TFDS supporting Python 3.7. Future versions will use Python 3.8.

Fixed

  • tfds new and tfds build better support the new recommended datasets organization, where individual datasets have their own package under datasets/, builder class is called Builder and is defined within module ${dsname}_dataset_builder.py.

Security

[4.8.1] - 2023-01-02

Changed

  • Added file valid_tags.txt to not break builds.
  • TFDS no longer relies on TensorFlow DTypes. We chose NumPy DTypes to keep the typing expressiveness, while dropping the heavy dependency on TensorFlow. We migrated all our internal datasets. Please, migrate accordingly:
    • tf.bool: np.bool_
    • tf.string: np.str_
    • tf.int64, tf.int32, etc: np.int64, np.int32, etc
    • tf.float64, tf.float32, etc: np.float64, np.float32, etc

[4.8.0] - 2022-12-21

Added

  • [API] DatasetBuilder's description and citations can be specified in dedicated README.md and CITATIONS.bib files, within the dataset package (see https://www.tensorflow.org/datasets/add_dataset).
  • Tags can be associated to Datasets, in the TAGS.txt file. For now, they are only used in the generated documentation.
  • [API][Experimental] New ViewBuilder to define datasets as transformations of existing datasets. Also adds tfds.transform with functionality to apply transformations.
  • Loggers are also called on tfds.as_numpy(...), base Logger class has a new corresponding method.
  • tfds.core.DatasetBuilder can have a default limit for the number of simultaneous downloads. tfds.download.DownloadConfig can override it.
  • tfds.features.Audio supports storing raw audio data for lazy decoding.
  • The number of shards can be overridden when preparing a dataset: builder.download_and_prepare(download_config=tfds.download.DownloadConfig(num_shards=42)). Alternatively, you can configure the min and max shard size if you want TFDS to compute the number of shards for you, but want to have control over the shard sizes.

Security

[4.7.0] - 2022-10-04

Added

  • [API] Added TfDataBuilder that is handy for storing experimental ad hoc TFDS datasets in notebook-like environments such that they can be versioned, described, and easily shared with teammates.

    • New guide on format-specific dataset builders;
    • New guide on adding new dataset collections to TFDS;

Deprecated

Removed

  • New datasets. ### Changed
  • All dataset inherit from tfds.core.GeneratorBasedBuilder. Converting a dataset to beam now only require changing _generate_examples (see example and doc).

Added

  • Datasets expose info.dataset_size and info.download_size.

Changed

  • The default versions of all datasets are now using the S3 slicing API. See the guide for details.
  • shuffle_files defaults to False so that dataset iteration is deterministic by default. You can customize the reading pipeline, including shuffling and interleaving, through the new read_config parameter in tfds.load.
