get_leaderboard(self, id=None, state=None, owner=None, tag=None, min_running_time=None)[source]

Fetch Neptune experiments view as pandas DataFrame.

returned DataFrame

In the returned DataFrame each row is an experiment and columns represent all system properties, numeric and text logs, parameters and properties in these experiments.
Note that, returned DataFrame does not contain all columns across the entire project.
Some columns may be empty, since experiments may define various logs, properties, etc.
For each log at most one (the last one) value is returned per experiment.
Text values are trimmed to 255 characters.

    Matching any element of the list is sufficient to pass criterion.

  • state (str or list of str, optional, default is None) –

    An experiment state like 'succeeded' or list of states like ['succeeded', 'running'].
    Possible values: 'running', 'succeeded', 'failed', 'aborted'.
    Matching any element of the list is sufficient to pass criterion.

  • owner (str or list of str, optional, default is None) –

    Username of the experiment owner (User who created experiment is an owner) like 'josh' or list of owners like ['frederic', 'josh'].
    Matching any element of the list is sufficient to pass criterion.

pandas.DataFrame - Fetched Neptune experiments view.

Examples

create_experiment(self, name=None, description=None, params=None, properties=None, tags=None, upload_source_files=None, abort_callback=None, logger=None, upload_stdout=True, upload_stderr=True, send_hardware_metrics=True, run_monitoring_thread=True, handle_uncaught_exceptions=True, git_info=None, hostname=None, notebook_id=None, notebook_path=None)[source]

Create and start Neptune experiment.

Create experiment, set its status to running and append it to the top of the experiments view. All parameters are optional, hence minimal invocation: neptune.create_experiment().

Parameters

  • name (str, optional, default is 'Untitled') – Editable name of the experiment. Name is displayed in the experiment’s Details (Metadata section) and in experiments view as a column.

  • description (str, optional, default is '') – Editable description of the experiment. Description is displayed in the experiment’s Details (Metadata section) and can be displayed in the experiments view as a column.

  • params (dict, optional, default is {}) – Parameters of the experiment. After experiment creation params are read-only (see: get_parameters()). Parameters are displayed in the experiment’s Details (Parameters section) and each key-value pair can be viewed in experiments view as a column.

  • properties (dict, optional, default is {}) – Properties of the experiment. They are editable after experiment is created. Properties are displayed in the experiment’s Details (Properties section) and each key-value pair can be viewed in experiments view as a column.

  • tags (list, optional, default is []) – Must be list of str. Tags of the experiment. They are editable after experiment is created (see: append_tag() and remove_tag()). Tags are displayed in the experiment’s Details (Metadata section) and can be viewed in experiments view as a column.

  • upload_source_files (list or str, optional, default is None) –

    List of source files to be uploaded. Must be list of str or single str. Uploaded sources are displayed in the experiment’s Source code tab.

    If None is passed, Python file from which experiment was created will be uploaded.
    Pass empty list ([]) to upload no files.
    Unix style pathname pattern expansion is supported. For example, you can pass '*.py' to upload all python source files from the current directory. For Python 3.5 or later, paths of uploaded files on server are resolved as relative to the
    calculated common root of all uploaded source files. For older Python versions, paths on server are
    resolved always as relative to the current directory. For recursion lookup use '**/*.py' (for Python 3.5 and later). For more information see glob library.

  • abort_callback (callable, optional, default is None) –

    Callback that defines how abort experiment action in the Web application should work. Actual behavior depends on your setup:

    • (default) If abort_callback=None and psutil is installed, then current process and it’s children are aborted by sending SIGTERM. If, after grace period, processes are not terminated, SIGKILL is sent.

    • If abort_callback=None and psutil is not installed, then abort experiment action just marks experiment as aborted in the Web application. No action is performed on the current process.

    • If abort_callback=callable, then callable is executed when abort experiment action in the Web application is triggered.

  • logger (logging.Logger or None, optional, default is None) – If Python’s Logger is passed, new experiment’s text log (see: log_text()) with name “logger” is created. Each time Python logger logs new data, it is automatically sent to the “logger” in experiment. As a results all data from Python logger are in the Logs tab in the experiment.

  • upload_stdout (Boolean, optional, default is True) – Whether to send stdout to experiment’s Monitoring.

  • upload_stderr (Boolean, optional, default is True) – Whether to send stderr to experiment’s Monitoring.

  • send_hardware_metrics (Boolean, optional, default is True) – Whether to send hardware monitoring logs (CPU, GPU, Memory utilization) to experiment’s Monitoring.

  • run_monitoring_thread (Boolean, optional, default is True) – Whether to run thread that pings Neptune server in order to determine if experiment is responsive.

  • handle_uncaught_exceptions (Boolean, optional, default is True) –

    Two options True and False are possible:

    • If set to True and uncaught exception occurs, then Neptune automatically place Traceback in the experiment’s Details and change experiment status to Failed.

    • If set to False and uncaught exception occurs, then no action is performed in the Web application. As a consequence, experiment’s status is running or not responding.

  • git_info (GitInfo, optional, default is None) –

    Instance of the class GitInfo that provides information about the git repository from which experiment was started.
    If None is passed, system attempts to automatically extract information about git repository in the following way:

    • System looks for .git file in the current directory and, if not found, goes up recursively until .git file will be found (see: get_git_info()).

    • If there is no git repository, then no information about git is displayed in experiment details in Neptune web application.

  • hostname (str, optional, default is None) – If None, neptune automatically get hostname information. User can also set hostname directly by passing str.

Returns

Experiment object that is used to manage experiment and log data to it.

Raises

  • ExperimentValidationError – When provided arguments are invalid.

  • ExperimentLimitReached – When experiment limit in the project has been reached.
