# Basic Workflow

<img src="https://gitlab.cern.ch/clcheng/ReadmeImagery/-/raw/master/images/hpogrid/WorkflowDiagram.png" width="800">

The execution of the above hyperparameter optimization workflow can be done entirely using the _hpogrid tool_ provided by this repository. The sample usage and instruction for using the _hpogrid tool_ is given in the next few sections.

The workflow can be divided into the following steps:

**Step 1**: Prepare the configuration files for a hyperparameter optimization task which will submitted to the ATLAS grid site. A total of four configuration files are required. They are:
1. **HPO Configuration**: Configurations that define how the hyperparameter optimization is performed. Such as:
    * A search algorithm for deciding the next hyperparameter search points
    * A scheduler method for early stopping of poor performing points, relocation of resources to more promising points and so on
    * The number of hyperparameter points to be evaluated
2. **Search Space Configuration**: Configurations that define the hyperparameter search space. This includes the sampling method for a particular hyperparameter (such as uniform or normal sampling or logirthmic based uniform sampling) and its range of allowed values.
3. **Model Configuration**: Configurations that contains information of the training model that is called by the hyperparameter optimization alogrithm. This should include 
    * The name of the training script which contains the class/function defining the training model
    * The name of the class/function that defines the training model
    * The parameters that should be passed to the training model. For details please refer to the section (Adaptation of Training Script)
4. **Grid Configuration**: Configurations that define settings for grid job submission. Such as
    * The container inside which the training scripts are run
    * The names of input and output datasets
    * The name of the grid site where the hyperparameter optimization jobs are run

The above configuration files are then merged into a single configuration file called the **project configuration** which will be used for submitting grid jobs or running jobs locally. 
Alternatively, one can directly prepare the project configuration file with a specified format. For details please refer to [this section](#project-configuration).

**Step 2**: Upload the input dataset via rucio which will be retrieved by the grid site when the hyperparameter optimization task is executed.

**Step 3**: Adapt the training script(s) to conform with the format required by the hyperparameter optimization library (Ray Tune).

**Step 4**: Submit the hyperparamter optimization task and monitor its progress.

**Step 5**: Retrieve the hyperparamter optimization results after completion. The results can be output into various formats supported by the _hpogrid tool_ for visualization. 

# Getting the code
To get the code, use the following command:
```
git clone ssh://git@gitlab.cern.ch:7999/aml/hyperparameter-optimization/alkaid-qt/hpogrid/hpogrid.git
```

# Setup and Installation (within lxplus)

### Using the default conda environment

You can setup the conda environment with the necessary packages using the command (from the base path of the project):
```
source setupenv.sh
```
This will setup the default conda environment _ml-base_ which contain all necessary machine-learning packages and the latest version of ROOT.

### Using singularity

Alternatively, you may use an equivalent singularity image by typing:
```
singularity shell /cvmfs/unpacked.cern.ch/gitlab-registry.cern.ch/aml/hyperparameter-optimization/alkaid-qt/hpogrid:latest
```

### Inside a custom virtual environment

Activate your custom environment then use the command (from the base path of the project):
```
source setupenv.sh no-conda
```
Then install the hpogrid package:
```
pip install hpogrid

```

# Creating a Custom Project with the Configuration Files

The `model`, `grid`, `hpo` and `search space` configuration files contains all information needed for setting up a hyperparameter optimization task. 

For convenience, all the configuration files will be combined to form a master configuration file, called the **project configuration** with an associated project name. This project configuration file is responsible
for running hyperparameter optimization tasks locally, via the grid or via iDDS. 

* To create a custom project with the `model`, `grid`, `hpo` and `search space` configuration files:
 ```
 hpogrid project create <project_name> [--options]
 ```

| **Option** | **Description** |
| ---------- | --------------- |
| `scripts_path` | The path to where the training scripts (or the directory containing the training scripts) are located |
| `hpo_config` | The hpo configuration to use for this project |
| `grid_config` | The grid configuration to use for this project |
| `model_config` | The model configuration to use for this project |
| `search_space` | The search space configuration to use for this project |

* Similarly, one can modify the project configuration by specifying different `model`, `grid`, `hpo` and `search space` configurations or a different scripts path:
 ```
 hpogrid project update <project_name> [--options]
 ```

* Or to recreate the project:
 ```
 hpogrid project recreate <project_name> [--options]
 ```

* To list out all the projects:

```
hpogrid project list <expression>
```

where `<expression>` is some regular expression for filtering the project names.

* To show the content of an existing project

```
hpogrid project show <project_name>
```

### Create a project configuration file directly

Alternatively, one can simply create the project configuration file directly in either `json` or `yaml` format. See the following examples:

# Adapting Training Scripts for Hyperparameter Optimization

The hpogrid workflow uses the **Ray Tune** library for carrying out hyperparameter optimization. There are two ways to adapt your training script to fit the format accepted by the library.

### **Method 1**: Training model as an objective function

Suppose you have a training script named `train.py` which contains an objective function called `my_objective`. Then for each _trial_ of the hyperparameter optimization, the Ray Tune library will generate a set of hyperparameters which will then be fed into this objective function. The objective function should then return a value for the evaluation metric which will allow the optimization algorithm to determine the next hyperparameter point. 

Example training script:
```python
def my_objective(config, reporter):
    height = config["height"]
    width = config["width"]
    loss = (height - 14)**2 - abs(width - 3)
    reporter(loss=loss)
```
- The objective function should contain the `config` argument. It is a dictionary where the values of all hyperparameters and other model parameters (i.e. any parameters you want to put in) are stored. Simply use `config['parameter_name']` to reference the value.
- The objective function should contain the `repoorter` argument. It is a function that reports the value of the evaluation metric (loss in this case) at the end of the training.

You can also put whatever you want inside the training script:
```python
kMyConstant = 1

def calculate_loss(height, width):
    loss = (height - 14)**2 - abs(width - 3)
    loss *= kMyConstant
    return loss

def my_objective(config, reporter):
    height = config["height"]
    width = config["width"]
    loss = calculate_loss(height, width)
    reporter(loss=loss)
```

For the above two examples, you should create your model configuration like this:
```
hpogrid model_config create test_model --script train.py --model my_objective
```


### **Method 2**: Training model as a trainable class

Suppose you have a training script named `train.py` which contains a class called `my_trainable`. Then for each _trial_ of the hyperparameter optimization, the Ray Tune library will do the following:
1. Generate a set of hyperparameters which will then be fed into the class object.
2. Initialize the class object by calling the `setup` function inside the class.
3. For each `training_iteration` (as defined in the hpo configuration), the `step` function will be called which should return a dictionary containing information about the training result (e.g. value of the evaluation metric) for that training iteration.
4. (this step depends on the scheduler used as defined in the hpo configuration) If after some training iterations the value of the evaluation does not look promising, the model will be saved via the `save_checkpoint` function and the training will be temporarily or permanently stopped and a new set of hyperparameters will run. If the algorithm thinks the old set of hyperparameters may worth continue training, then the `load_checkpoint` function will be called to continue the previously stopped training.
5. The trial is said to be finished if either
    * The stopping criteria is reached, e.g. training_iteration reached a certain value, or
    * The training is stopped by the scheduler (due to low performance of the set of hyperparameters)

Example training script:
```python
import numpy as np
import ray

class MyTrainableClass(ray.tune.Trainable):

    def setup(self, config):
        self.timestep = 0

    def step(self):
        self.timestep += 1
        alpha = self.config.get("alpha", 1) # or alpha = config['alpha']
        beta = self.config.get("beta", 1) # or beta = config["beta"]
        loss = self.calculate_loss(alpha, beta)
        return {"loss": loss, 'timestep': self.timestep}}

    def save_checkpoint(self, checkpoint_dir):
        path = os.path.join(checkpoint_dir, "checkpoint")
        with open(path, "w") as f:
            f.write(json.dumps({"timestep": self.timestep}))
        return path

    def load_checkpoint(self, checkpoint_path):
        with open(checkpoint_path) as f:
            self.timestep = json.loads(f.read())["timestep"]

    def calculate_loss(self, alpha, beta):
        loss = np.tanh(float(self.timestep) / alpha)
        loss *= beta
        return loss
```

- The trainable class must inherit from the `ray.Tune.Trainable` class for the Ray Tune library to recognize the class structure.
- The functions `save_checkpoint` and `load_checkpoint` are optional if you only train for one training iteration (i.e. `step` is called only once)

If you do not need to make use of the scheduler to speed up your training by terminating low performant trainings, or your training cannot be split into successive training iterations. You can leave out the `save_checkpoint` and `load_checkpoint` functions. For example:

```python
import numpy as np
import ray

class MyTrainableClass(ray.tune.Trainable):

    def step(self):
        alpha = self.config.get("alpha", 1) # or alpha = config['alpha']
        beta = self.config.get("beta", 1) # or beta = config["beta"]
        loss = self.calculate_loss(alpha, beta)
        return {"loss": loss}

    def calculate_loss(self, alpha, beta):
        loss = np.tanh(1/alpha)
        loss *= beta
        return loss
```

# Important Notes

### Working Directory of Container
* When running a grid job inside a container, you can check the working directory inside your script by calling
```
import hpogrid
working_directory = hpogrid.get_workdir()
```

In most cases, you can obtain the working directory by simpling calling `os.path.getcwd()`.

### Location of Input Dataset
* When running a grid job inside a container, you can check the data directory (where the inDS is located) inside your script by calling
```
import hpogrid
data_directory = hpogrid.get_datadir()
```

Similarly, the default data directory should be the same as `os.path.getcwd()`.
