Export and import model about neural-disaggregator HOT 4 CLOSED

the export method allows us to export the model in the form of hdf5 or pkl, so that we can import it afterwards and apply the method disaggregate_chunk without doing the training of the algorithm again.

This is correct! The import_model method does not return a new variable but it sets the internal attributes of the dissagregator. So, after calling the method, the disaggregator variable has loaded the model from the file and is trained and ready to go.

Please note that exporting the model works only with hdf5 files and not with pkl.

@OdysseasKr Thanks a lot for the explanation, I get it.

Hello @ikrambennasrbennasr
The import_model method does not return anything and works like this:

disaggregator.import_model("model-redd5.h5")
predictions = disaggregator.disaggregate_chunk(A_batch)

This should fix the error.

Thanks @OdysseasKr for your response.
In fact, that's what i did and it worked. But I did not understand the usefulness of the import method, if it does not import the model. What I understood, and it's up to you to correct me of course, that the export method allows us to export the model in the form of hdf5 or pkl, so that we can import it afterwards and apply the method disaggregate_chunk without doing the training of the algorithm again. So the question here is what is the utility of the import method if it does not have an output?
Thanks a lot.
