Configuration

In SLAM-Hive system, you can create a “configuration” before running a SLAM algorithm on a dataset. The configuration contains the algorithm, dataset and other required parameters.

This page introduces the “index” page.

View-only Version

1. Combination Configuration

You can click “Show Combination Configs” to see the created combination configurations (The detail introduction of Combination Configurations is in next section).

2. Config List

The “Config List” shows all the created configurations.

You can click “Export Configuration” button to download the configuration file in yaml format.

And You can click “show details” button to see the configuration detail information online.

3. Search Engine for Configuration

You can use our “Search Engine” (shown as a search box) to search your required configuration conveniently.

The system provides multiple search conditions:

  1. Algorithms Selection (If no limitation for algorithm, select “All”).
  2. Datasets Selection (If no limitation for algorithm, select “All”).
  3. Parameter Selection: input a set of constraints on the parameters (The rules are similar to the “SQL”).

For example: 

nFeatures >=2000
nLevels = 8
...

Full Version

In this page, you can create the configurations and mapping run tasks in various methods.

1. Configuration

1.1 Create/Copy a Simple Configuration

You can click the “Create Config” or “Copy”(in Configuration List) to create a new configuration. Then see create wiki for more details.

1.2 Show the Details of a Configuration

You can click the “Show Config”(in Configuration List) to show all the parameters of configuration.

1.3 Create/Copy Combination Configuration

We provide a convenient way to create multiple configurations at once called “Combination Configuration”.

For example, If you want to create a set of configurations with a regular pattern (e.g. set different values ​​for parameters and then arrange them in different combinations), you can use this method.

You can click the “Create Combination Config” or “Copy for Combination”(in Configuration List) to create a set of configurations. Then see create comb configurations wiki for more details.

1.4 Show Combination Configuration

You can click the “Show Combination Config”(in Configuration List) to show all the combination configurations.

1.5 Delete Configuration

If you delete the configuration, it will also delete relevant tasks and evaluations together.

Same as the “view-only” version.

3. Mapping Task

3.1 Create One Mapping Task

You can click the “Create MappingTask”(in Configuration List) to create a new configuration.

And if you want to create more tasks of one configuration to test it's stability, you can click the “Create More MappingTask”.

3.2 Create a Batch of Mapping Tasks (Workstation)

We provide “Batch Create Task” for you to create tasks in batches. You can input the IDs of configuration and then click the button, then the tasks will run in series.

3.2 Create a Batch of Mapping Tasks (Local Cluster)

Similar to the previous; the task will be assigned to the work nodes in cluster.

3.3 Create a Batch of Mapping Tasks (Aliyun Cloud)

Similar to the previous; System will buy new servers as work nodes, and the task will be assigned to the work nodes in cluster. After tasks finishing, the work servers will delete by system.

For how to deployment the SLAM-Hive system on you Aliyun server, please see: https://github.com/SLAM-Hive (TODO: Add Aliyun part).
