Summary

The Inference class describes a model inference feature that is applied to a Batch Feature View via features param.

Example

from tecton import Inference, batch_feature_view
from tecton.types import String, Int64

@batch_feature_view(
    # ...
    features=[
        Inference(
            input_columns=[Field("my_field1", String), Field("my_field2", Int64)],
            model="my_custom_model",
            name="my_inference_feature"
        ),
        Inference(
            input_columns=[Field("my_field3", String), Field("my_field4", Int64)],
            model="my_custom_model",
            name="my_other_inference_feature"m
            description="my inference feature description",
            tags={"tag": "value"}
        )
    ],
)
def my_fv(data_source):
    return data_source

Attributes

Name	Data Type	Description
description	Optional[str]	A human-readable description of the feature
tags	Optional[Dict[str, str]]	Tags associated with the feature (key-value pairs of user-defined metadata).

input_columns	List[Field]	A list of columns that are used as inputs to the model.
name	Optional[str]	The name of this feature. Defaults to an autogenerated name, e.g. "my_inference_feature".
