      Feat/optimize single prediction (#2992) · fc79b366
      Alberto Ferreira authored
      * [performance] Add Fast methods to C API for SingleRow Predictions
      
       * Add methods to C API to make single-row predictions faster:
      
         - LGBM_BoosterPredictForMatSingleRowFastInit (setup)
         - LGBM_BoosterPredictForMatSingleRowFast (predict)
         - LGBM_FastConfigFree (cleanup setup outputs)
      
      * Code syle cleanup
      
      * Fix lint errors
      
      * [performance] Revert FastConfig improvement to pass data at init
      
      This reduces optimization by 5% / 30% with this branch but makes it so it can be used for higher level wrappers in MMLSpark.
      And outside it as well.
      
      * [performance] Introduce Fast variants for SingleRow predictors.
      
      Although this already provides performance gains by itself for any
      callers, two new functions were added to Java's SWIG interfaces to
      exploit that AND the GetPrimitiveArrayCritical data fetches.
      
      * [tests/profiling] Profile Fast predict methods
      
      Build with -DBUILD_PROFILING_TESTS=ON and copy the default
      model trained on the Higgs dataset from the benchmarks repo
      
       https://github.com/guolinke/boosting_tree_benchmarks.git
      
      
      
      to LightGBM repo root and run the lightgbm_profile_* binaries.
      
      The single instance used is the first row from that dataset.
      
      * Update comment on CMakeLists.
      
      * Fix doxygen-introduced issue (#threads)
      
      * Fix conflicts due to new RowFunctionFromCSR signature in master
      
      * Change FastConfig ncol to int32_t.

      * [swig] Fix SWIG methods that return char** with StringArray.
      
      + [new] Add StringArray class to manage and manipulate arrays of fixed-length strings:
      
        This class is now used to wrap any char** parameters, manage memory and
        manipulate the strings.
      
        Such class is defined at swig/StringArray.hpp and wrapped in StringArray.i.
      
      + [API+fix] Wrap LGBM_BoosterGetFeatureNames it resulted in segfault before:
      
        Added wrapper LGBM_BoosterGetFeatureNamesSWIG(BoosterHandle) that
        only receives the booster handle and figures how much memory to allocate
        for strings and returns a StringArray which can be easily converted to String[].
      
      + [API+safety] For consistency, LGBM_BoosterGetEvalNamesSWIG was wrapped as well:
      
        * Refactor to detect any kind of errors and removed all the parameters
          besides the BoosterHandle (much simpler API to use in Java).
        * No assumptions are made about the required string space necessary (128 before).
        * The amount of required string memory is computed internally
      
      + [safety] No possibility of undefined behaviour
      
        The two methods wrapped above now compute the necessary string storage space
        prior to allocation, as the low-level C API calls would crash the process
        irreversibly if they write more memory than which is passed to them.
      
      * Changes to C API and wrappers support char**
      
      To support the latest SWIG changes that enable proper char**
      return support that is safe, the C API was changed.
      
      The respecive wrappers in R and Python were changed too.
      
      * Cleanup indentation in new lightgbm_R.cpp code

      Add ability to move features from one data set to another in memory (#2006) · 219c943d
      remcob-gr authored
      * Initial attempt to implement appending features in-memory to another data set
      
      The intent is for this to enable munging files together easily, without needing to round-trip via numpy or write multiple copies to disk.
      In turn, that enables working more efficiently with data sets that were written separately.
      
      * Implement Dataset.dump_text, and fix small bug in appending of group bin boundaries.
      
      Dumping to text enables us to compare results, without having to worry about issues like features being reordered.
      
      * Add basic tests for validation logic for add_features_from.
      
      * Remove various internal mapping items from dataset text dumps
      
      These are too sensitive to the exact feature order chosen, which is not visible to the user.
      Including them in tests appears unnecessary, as the data dumping code should provide enough coverage.
      
      * Add test that add_features_from results in identical data sets according to dump_text.
      
      * Add test that booster behaviour after using add_features_from matches that of training on the full data
      
      This checks:
      - That training after add_features_from works at all
      - That add_features_from does not cause training to misbehave
      
      * Expose feature_penalty and monotone_types/constraints via get_field
      
      These getters allow us to check that add_features_from does the right thing with these vectors.
      
      * Add tests that add_features correctly handles feature_penalty and monotone_constraints.
      
      * Ensure add_features_from properly frees the added dataset and add unit test for this
      
      Since add_features_from moves the feature group pointers from the added dataset to the dataset being added to, the added dataset is invalid after the call.
      We must ensure we do not try and access this handle.
      
      * Remove some obsolete TODOs
      
      * Tidy up DumpTextFile by using a single iterator for each feature
      
      This iterators were also passed around as raw pointers without being freed, which is now fixed.
      
      * Factor out offsetting logic in AddFeaturesFrom
      
      * Remove obsolete TODO
      
      * Remove another TODO
      
      This one is debatable, test code can be a bit messy and duplicate-heavy, factoring it out tends to end badly.
      Leaving this for now, will revisit if adding more tests later on becomes a mess.
      
      * Add documentation for newly-added methods.
      
      * Fix whitespace issues identified by pylint.
      
      * Fix a few more whitespace issues.
      
      * Fix doc comments
      
      * Implement deep copying for feature groups.
      
      * Replace awkward std::move usage by emplace_back, and reduce vector size to num_features rather than num_total_features.
      
      * Copy feature groups in addFeaturesFrom, rather than moving them.
      
      * Fix bugs in FeatureGroup copy constructor and ensure source dataset remains usable
      
      * Add reserve to PushVector and PushOffset
      
      * Move definition of Clone into class body
      
      * Fix PR review issues
      
      * Fix for loop increment style.
      
      * Fix test failure
      
      * Some more docstring fixes.
      
      * Remove blank line
