NLP tools

Well-tested tools that can be used in production with confidence. The toolbox of feature-extraction functions is expected to grow to cover other domains as well.

Parallel processing

Multiprocessing and multithreading-based parallelism with support for async functions. Its main purpose is to implement [great_ai.GreatAI.process_batch][], however, the parallel processing functions are also convenient for covering other types of mapping needs with a friendlier API than joblib{ target=_blank } or multiprocess{ target=_blank }.

Composable parallel processing

Because both [threaded_parallel_map][great_ai.utilities.parallel_map.threaded_parallel_map.threaded_parallel_map] and [parallel_map][great_ai.utilities.parallel_map.parallel_map.parallel_map] have a streaming interface, it is easy to compose them and end up with, for example, a process for each CPU core with its own thread-pool or event-loop. Longer pipelines are also easy to imagine. The chunking methods help in these compositions.
