Summary

ToOneHot, AddCalendarFields, AverageEstimators and SelectColumns raise NameError: name 'Stype' is not defined when run through torch.compile(..., backend="eager"). They now pass the schema keys of their output table as strings.

Description of the change

Constructing a TableTensor inside a compiled function is recorded as a single graph node. These processors build their output with a schema dict keyed by Stype members:

out_table = TableTensor(
    columns={Stype.numerical: columns},
    numerical=out,
)

The Python code generated for the graph writes a dict argument out with repr, and Stype.__repr__ returns the bare name Stype.numerical. Nothing defines Stype in that code, so tracing succeeds and the generated code fails when it is called:

out_table: "TableTensor(f32[2, 1][1, 1]cpu)" = sdm_tensor_table_TableTensor(columns = {Stype.numerical: ('dt_0__hour',)}, numerical = out_4);  out_4 = None
  File "<eval_with_key>.1", line 18, in forward
NameError: name 'Stype' is not defined. Did you mean: 'type'?

The keys are now Stype.numerical.value, i.e. the string "numerical", as AddCategoryCounts already does (#1195). The generated line becomes columns = {'numerical': ('dt_0__hour',)}, which needs no name. TableTensor converts string keys to Stype, so eager results are unchanged.

PCA, RandomProjection, ToNumerical and ShuffleColumns use the same pattern but are left as they are: their graphs also pass an Stype member outside a dict (e.g. table.drop_stypes(Stype.numerical)), and for such arguments the generated code does define the name. All four compile and run with backend="eager" before this change.

Reproduction (CPU, PyTorch 2.14.1):

import torch
from sdm import TableTensor
from sdm.processing import AddCalendarFields

processor = AddCalendarFields(fields=["hour"])


def transform(inp):
    return processor.transform(TableTensor(datetime=inp)).numerical


compiled = torch.compile(transform, backend="eager", fullgraph=True)
inp = torch.tensor([[0], [3_600_000_000]])  # microseconds since epoch
print(compiled(inp))  # NameError before this change

The graph line above is from running it with TORCH_LOGS=graph_code.

Validation

Compiled transform / transform_ensemble of each affected processor with fullgraph=True and compared the numerical output with the uncompiled call (CPU, PyTorch 2.14.1); output column names were also checked for ToOneHot and SelectColumns. SelectColumns(2) ran on four ensemble members of a three-column table, so columns are trimmed and the coverage warning does not fire.

backend="eager":

Processor Before After
ToOneHot NameError matches eager
AddCalendarFields NameError matches eager
AverageEstimators NameError matches eager
SelectColumns(method="first") NameError matches eager
SelectColumns(method="round_robin") NameError matches eager

Every case compiles exactly one graph, before and after. With backend="inductor" all five cases match eager both before and after: that backend did not hit the error.

These processors are not yet covered by a shared compile test.

Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved consistency of column labels in one-hot encoded data, selected columns, generated calendar fields, and averaged ensemble outputs.
    • These processing steps now use consistent labels for numerical and categorical columns, helping transformed data retain clear, compatible column labels across the pipeline.

Four processing transforms now use string values of Stype members as column mapping keys. Column selection and tensor slicing behavior remain unchanged.

Changes: Column mapping keys

Layer / File(s) Summary
Use string-valued Stype keys
sdm/processing/categorical/one_hot.py, sdm/processing/common/select.py, sdm/processing/datetime/calendar.py, sdm/processing/output/reduce.py
One-hot encoding, column selection, calendar field generation, and estimator averaging now use Stype.value as column mapping keys.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to c93d0

This change keeps generated compiled code from referencing the Stype name, while eager behavior is unchanged. No merge-blocking risk remains. A shared compile regression test would be a useful follow-up.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 4 functions across 4 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.
