I have a ML model that takes two numpy.ndarray - users and items - and returns an numpy.ndarray predictions. In normal Python code, I would do:
model = load_model()
df = load_data() # the DataFrame includes 4 columns, namely, user_id, movie_id, rating, and timestamp
users = df.user_id.values
items = df.movie_id.values
predictions = model(users, items)
I am looking into porting this code into Flink to leverage its distributed nature. My assumption is: by distributing the prediction workload on multiple Flink nodes, I should be able to run the whole prediction faster.
So I compose a PyFlink job. Note I implement an UDF called predict to run the prediction.
# batch_prediction.py
model = load_model()
settings = EnvironmentSettings.new_instance().use_blink_planner().build()
exec_env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.get_execution_environment()
t_env = StreamTableEnvironment.create(exec_env, environment_settings=settings)
SOURCE_DDL = """
CREATE TABLE source (
user_id INT,
movie_id INT,
rating TINYINT,
event_ms BIGINT
) WITH (
'connector' = 'filesystem',
'format' = 'csv',
'csv.field-delimiter' = '\t',
'path' = 'ml-100k/u1.test'
)
"""
SINK_DDL = """
CREATE TABLE sink (
prediction DOUBLE
) WITH (
'connector' = 'print'
)
"""
t_env.execute_sql(SOURCE_DDL)
t_env.execute_sql(SINK_DDL)
t_env.execute_sql(
"INSERT INTO sink SELECT PREDICT(user_id, movie_id) FROM source"
).wait()
Here is the UDF.
# batch_prediction.py (cont)
@udf(result_type=DataTypes.DOUBLE())
def predict(user, item):
return model([user], [item]).item()
t_env.create_temporary_function("predict", predict)
The job runs fine. However, the prediction actually runs on each and every row of the source table, which is not performant. Instead, I want to split the 80,000 (user_id, movie_id) pairs into, let's say, 100 batches, with each batch having 800 rows. The job triggers the model(users, items) function 100 times (= # of batch), where both users and items have 800 elements.
I couldn't find a way to do this. By looking at the docs, vectorized user-defined functions may work.
# batch_prediction.py (snippet)
# I add the func_type="pandas"
@udf(result_type=DataTypes.DOUBLE(), func_type="pandas")
def predict(user, item):
...
Unfortunately, it doesn't.

The error messages are not very helpful. Can anyone help? Thanks!
Note: source code can be found here. To run the code, you will need Anaconda locally, then:
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate flink-ml

For Pandas UDF, the input type for each input argument is Pandas.Series and the result type should also be a Pandas.Series. Besides, the length of the result should be the same as the inputs. Could you check if this is the case for your Pandas UDF implementation?
Then I decide to add a pytest unit test for my UDF to verify the input and output type. Here is how:
import pandas as pd
from udf_def import predict
def test_predict():
f = predict._func
users = pd.Series([1, 2, 3])
items = pd.Series([1, 4, 9])
preds = f(users, items)
assert isinstance(preds, pd.Series)
assert len(preds) == 3
It uncovers the implementation mistake. Then I fix my UDF implementation to pass the unit test.
from model_def import MatrixFactorization
@udf(result_type=DataTypes.DOUBLE(), func_type="pandas")
def predict(users, items):
n_users, n_items = 943, 1682
model = MatrixFactorization(n_users, n_items)
model.load_state_dict(torch.load("model.pth"))
return pd.Series(model(users, items).detach().numpy())
With the new UDF implementation, I am able to run the batch prediction.
