ProbabilisticOperator - Wrapper for probability-based operator application.
This operator wraps any OperatorModule and applies it with a configured probability.
Key Features:
- Wraps any OperatorModule with probabilistic application
- Configurable probability (0.0 to 1.0)
- Stochastic mode when 0 < p < 1
- Deterministic mode when p = 0.0 or p = 1.0
- Full JAX compatibility with JIT compilation
- Minimal overhead wrapper pattern
Examples:
Basic usage:
config = ProbabilisticOperatorConfig(operator=child_op, probability=0.5)
op = ProbabilisticOperator(config, rngs=rngs)
ProbabilisticOperatorConfig
dataclass
¤
ProbabilisticOperatorConfig(cacheable: bool = False, batch_stats_fn: Callable | Module | None = None, precomputed_stats: dict[str, Any] | None = None, stochastic: bool = False, stream_name: str | None = None, batch_strategy: str = 'vmap', *, operator: OperatorModule, probability: float = 0.5)
Bases: OperatorConfig
Configuration for ProbabilisticOperator.
Extends OperatorConfig with probability parameter and child operator.
Attributes:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
operator |
OperatorModule
|
Child operator to wrap with probabilistic application |
probability |
float
|
Probability of applying the operator (0.0 to 1.0) - 0.0: never apply (deterministic) - 1.0: always apply (deterministic) - 0 < p < 1: probabilistic (stochastic) |
Note:
- stochastic is automatically set based on probability
- stream_name is inherited from child operator if stochastic
ProbabilisticOperator ¤
ProbabilisticOperator(config: ProbabilisticOperatorConfig, *, rngs: Rngs | None = None)
Bases: OperatorModule
Wrapper operator that applies child operator with configured probability.
Wraps any OperatorModule and applies it probabilistically:
- p=0.0: never apply (passthrough)
- p=1.0: always apply (equivalent to child operator)
- 0<p<1: apply with probability p (stochastic)
Uses jax.lax.cond for JIT-compatible conditional execution.
Examples:
Probabilistic application:
# Wrap any operator with 50% application probability
child_config = BrightnessOperatorConfig(field_key="image", factor_range=(0.8, 1.2))
child_op = BrightnessOperator(child_config, rngs=nnx.Rngs(0))
prob_config = ProbabilisticOperatorConfig(
operator=child_op,
probability=0.5
)
prob_op = ProbabilisticOperator(prob_config, rngs=nnx.Rngs(0))
# Apply to batch - each element has 50% chance of brightness adjustment
result_batch = prob_op(batch)
Parameters:

|---|---|---|---|
config
|
ProbabilisticOperatorConfig
|
ProbabilisticOperatorConfig with child operator and probability |
required |
rngs
|

generate_random_params ¤
Generate random application decisions for each batch element.
Creates boolean mask determining which elements get the operator applied.
Parameters:

|---|---|
dict[str, Any] | PyTree

|
dict[str, Any] | PyTree
|
|
Note
The base class ALWAYS calls generate_random_params, so we must always delegate to child to get its params (even for deterministic ProbabilisticOperator).
apply ¤
apply(data: PyTree, state: PyTree, metadata: dict[str, Any] | None, random_params: Any = None, stats: dict[str, Any] | None = None) -> tuple[PyTree, PyTree, dict[str, Any] | None]

get_operation_stats ¤
reset_operation_stats ¤
Reset operation statistics to zero.
Note: Creates new JAX arrays to reset the counters.
compute_statistics ¤
Compute statistics from data using batch_stats_fn.
If batch_stats_fn is not configured, returns None. Computed statistics are cached in _computed_stats.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
data
|
Any
|
Input data to compute statistics from |
required |
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
dict[str, Any] | None
|
Dictionary of statistics, or None if no batch_stats_fn configured |
get_statistics ¤
set_statistics ¤
reset_statistics ¤
Reset all statistics to None.
This clears both computed statistics and marks that precomputed_stats should be ignored (via internal flag). After reset, get_statistics() will return None until new statistics are set or computed.
copy ¤
copy(*, config: DataraxModuleConfig | None = None, rngs: Rngs | None = None, name: str | None = None) -> DataraxModule
Create a copy of this module with optional config/parameter changes.
This allows creating a new module instance with modified configuration while preserving other attributes. Useful for hyperparameter tuning.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
config
|
DataraxModuleConfig | None
|
New config (if None, uses current config) |
None
|
rngs
|
Rngs | None
|
New RNG state (if None, uses current rngs) |
None
|
name
|
str | None
|
New name (if None, uses current name) |
None
|
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
DataraxModule
|
New module instance with updated parameters |
Examples:
Change configuration¤
new_config = DataraxModuleConfig(cacheable=True) new_module = module.copy(config=new_config)
Change name only¤
renamed = module.copy(name="new_name")
Note
Subclasses can override this method to provide more fine-grained control over copying, such as allowing individual config field updates without requiring dataclass replace().
get_state ¤
Get module state for checkpointing.
This method implements the Checkpointable protocol using NNX state management. It extracts all state variables from the module and converts them to a serializable format.
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
dict[str, Any]
|
A dictionary containing the internal state of the component. |
set_state ¤
Restore module state from a checkpoint.
This method implements the Checkpointable protocol using NNX state management. It restores the module state from a serialized format. Restoration is strict: checkpoint structure must match module state.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
state
|
dict[str, Any]
|
A dictionary containing the internal state to restore. |
required |
Raises:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
TypeError
|
If state is not a dictionary. |
ValueError
|
If checkpoint structure does not match module state. |
clone ¤
clone() -> DataraxModule
Create a new instance with the same state as this module.
Uses NNX's clone function for proper deep cloning of all state.
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
DataraxModule
|
A new module instance with the same state. |
requires_rng_streams ¤
ensure_rng_streams ¤
Ensure that the required RNG streams are available.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
stream_names
|
list[str]
|
A list of available RNG stream names. |
required |
Raises:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
ValueError
|
If a required RNG stream is not available. |
get_output_structure ¤
get_output_structure(sample_data: PyTree, sample_state: PyTree) -> tuple[PyTree, PyTree]
Declare output PyTree structure for vmap axis specification.
Default uses jax.eval_shape to discover structure automatically. Override for efficiency or when eval_shape doesn't work (e.g., data-dependent shapes).
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
sample_data
|
PyTree
|
Single element data (not batched) |
required |
sample_state
|
PyTree
|
Single element state (not batched) |
required |
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
PyTree
|
Tuple of (output_data_structure, output_state_structure) with None leaves. |
PyTree
|
The structure (keys/nesting) matters, leaf values are ignored. |
Example override for operator that adds keys
def get_output_structure(self, sample_data, sample_state): out_data = { **jax.tree.map(lambda _: None, sample_data), "score": None, "alignment": None, } return out_data, sample_state
apply_batch ¤
Process entire batch with vmap and optional RNG generation.
This method implements the batch processing logic for both stochastic and deterministic modes. It uses static branching on self.stochastic for JIT compilation efficiency.
The implementation delegates to _vmap_apply() for the shared computational core, then wraps the result in a Batch object.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
batch
|
Batch
|
Input batch (Batch[Element] structure) |
required |
stats
|
dict[str, Any] | None
|
Optional statistics (if None, uses get_statistics()) |
None
|
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
Batch
|
Transformed batch with same structure |
Note
This method is concrete (not abstract). Subclasses typically don't override it, but can if they need custom batch processing logic.
output_spec ¤
Return the operator's output spec given an input spec.
Most operators (normalization, additive noise, simple element-wise
transforms) do not change shape; the default returns input_spec
unchanged. Shape-changing operators (Resize, Crop, Reshape) MUST
override this method.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
input_spec
|
PyTree
|
PyTree of |
required |
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
