[docs]@timeit(color='green', bold=True) def run_experiment(run, config, seeds, log_dir, max_workers, chunksize=1, use_gpu=False, gpu_ids=None): r"""A convenient function to parallelize the experiment (master-worker pipeline). It is implemented by using `concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` It automatically creates all subfolders for each pair of configuration and random seed to store the loggings of the experiment. The root folder is given by the user. Then all subfolders for each configuration are created with the name of their job IDs. Under each configuration subfolder, a set subfolders are created for each random seed (the random seed as folder name). Intuitively, an experiment could have following directory structure:: - logs - 0 # ID number - 123 # random seed - 345 - 567 - 1 - 123 - 345 - 567 - 2 - 123 - 345 - 567 - 3 - 123 - 345 - 567 - 4 - 123 - 345 - 567 Args: run (function): a function that defines an algorithm, it must take the arguments `(config, seed, device, logdir)` config (Config): a :class:`Config` object defining all configuration settings seeds (list): a list of random seeds log_dir (str): a string to indicate the path to store loggings. max_workers (int): argument for ProcessPoolExecutor. if `None`, then all experiments run serially. chunksize (int): argument for Executor.map() use_gpu (bool): if `True`, then use CUDA. Otherwise, use CPU. gpu_ids (list): if `None`, then use all available GPUs. Otherwise, only use the GPU device defined in the list.
