This module exposes :class:`ITFormerEngine`, a thin adapter that drives
the official ITFormer (ICML 2025 Poster) ``inference.py`` script in
batched mode. Each batch of (prompt, time-series) pairs is written to a
temp ``ts_data.h5`` + ``qa_data.jsonl`` + ``infer.yaml`` triple, the
authors' CLI is invoked once, and the resulting ``inference_results_*.json``
is read back and split into one generated string per input.
Usage from :mod:`methods.llm_ts_reason.ITFormer` (per-task predictors):
engine = ITFormerEngine.create(
upstream_dir=..., # auto-detected if None
checkpoint=..., # default Pandalin98/ITFormer-ICML25 (0.5B)
input_len=600, # ITFormer architecture default
prefix_num=10,
batch_size=8,
max_new_tokens=200,
device="cuda" or "cpu",
)
texts = engine.predict_batch(
ts_arr=np.ndarray (N, L) float32, # one signal per prompt
prompts=[str, ...] (length N),
)
Why this exists (limitation disclosure)
---------------------------------------
ITFormer's published inference is a CLI driver over the EngineMT-QA
schema (HDF5 single-channel signals + JSONL conversation pairs), not a
Python-importable function. The authors' ``main_inference(args)`` pulls
in ``Accelerator()``, parses YAML, materialises a ``DataLoader``, and
calls ``model.generate()``. Wrapping that as a per-prompt Python call
would mean re-implementing dataset / collator / generate semantics,
which the user explicitly forbids ("ALWAYS use the authors' official
repo code; never re-implement from the paper text").
The compromise here is faithful but coarse: we drive the authors' code
verbatim via subprocess, paying one process startup per
:meth:`predict_batch` call. The Method-level adapter
(:class:`methods.llm_ts_reason.ITFormer`) calls ``predict_batch`` ONCE
per task (not once per sample), so subprocess overhead is amortised.
What is faithful
----------------
- Authors' ``inference.py`` runs unmodified: same model class, same
``generate`` call, same tokenizer, same chat-template substitution of
``<ts>`` -> ``<|image_pad|> * prefix_num``.
- HDF5 + JSONL format matches the authors' ``TsQaDataset`` reader.
- YAML config fields mirror ``yaml/infer.yaml`` defaults verified against
upstream commit on 2026-05-05 via WebFetch.
What is NOT faithful (documented limitation; mirrored in DRAFT.md)
------------------------------------------------------------------
- The published pipeline expects EngineMT-QA (industrial engine sensor
signals); we feed it (close-price lookback, financial QA prompt) pairs.
This is the same domain transfer the legacy
:func:`baselines.llm_ts_reason.run_itformer` already performed; we are
not making any NEW deviation, only honouring the published format.
- Stages 2/3 in ITFormer's protocol are MULTIPLE-CHOICE; our T2..T7 are
open-ended numeric / structured. We therefore mark every prompt as
``stage='1'`` (open question) so the model emits free-form text, which
the calling parser then coerces to a number / dict / DataFrame row.
