The nrtk-jatic package is an extension of the Natural Robustness Toolkit
(NRTK) containing implementations
and examples in compliance with protocols from the Modular AI Trustworthy Engineering
(MAITE) library.
These packages (among others) are developed under the
Joint AI Test Infrastructure Capability (JATIC) program
for AI Test & Evaluation (T&E) and AI Assurance.
The nrtk-jatic package consists of implementations and utilities that ensure
interoperability of nrtk functionality with maite. The scripts under
src/nrtk_jatic/interop consist of protocol implementations that are compliant
with maite's dataset and augmentation protocols. The src/nrtk_jatic/utils
folder houses generic util scripts and the NRTK CLI entrypoint script.
Finally, the examples folder consists of Jupyter notebooks showing
end-to-end ML T&E workflows demonstrating natural robustness testing of computer vision models with nrtk,
and integrations of nrtk with other JATIC tools,
by using the interoperability standards provided by maite
Additional information about JATIC and its design principles can be found here.
The following steps assume the source tree has been acquired locally.
Install the current version via pip:
pip install nrtk-jaticAlternatively, you can also use Poetry:
poetry install --sync --with dev-linting,dev-testing,dev-docsSee here for more installation documentation.
We provide a number of examples based on Jupyter notebooks in the
./examples/ directory to show usage of the nrtk-jatic package in a number
of different contexts.
Documentation snapshots for releases as well as the latest master are hosted on ReadTheDocs.
The sphinx-based documentation may also be built locally for the most up-to-date reference:
# Install dependencies
poetry install --sync --with dev-linting,dev-testing,dev-docs
# Navigate to the documentation root.
cd docs
# Build the docs.
poetry run make html
# Open in your favorite browser!
firefox _build/html/index.htmlpre-commit hooks
pre-commit hooks are used to ensure that any code meets all linting and
formatting guidelines required. After installing, this will always run before
committing to ensure that any commits are following the standards, but you
can also manually run the check without committing. If you want to commit
despite there being errors, you can add --no-verify to your commit command.
Installing pre-commit hooks:
# Ensure that all dependencies are installed
poetry install --sync --with dev-linting,dev-testing,dev-docs
# Initialize pre-commit for the repository
poetry run pre-commit install
# Run pre-commit check on all files
poetry run pre-commit run --all-files- We follow the general guidelines outlined in the JATIC Software Development Plan.
- We use the Git Flow branching strategy.
- See docs/release_process.rst for detailed release information.
- See CONTRIBUTING.md for additional contributing information.
