Creating a Processing Task

Function

This API is used to create a processing task, including feature analysis tasks and data processing tasks. You can specify the id field of template composite parameter in the request body to create a task.

  • During data feature analysis, images or target bounding boxes are analyzed based on image features, such as blurs and brightness to draw visualized curves to assist in dataset processing.

  • Data processing is used to extract valuable data from a large amount of disordered, difficult-to-understand data. Data processing includes data validation, data cleansing, data selection, and data augmentation.

  • Data validation indicates that the dataset is verified to ensure data accuracy.

  • Data cleansing refers to the process of denoising, correcting, or supplementing data.

  • Data selection indicates the process of selecting data subsets from full data.

  • Data augmentation indicates that data volume is increased through simple data amplification operations such as scaling, cropping, transformation, and composition.

Debugging

You can debug this API through automatic authentication in or use the SDK sample code generated by API Explorer.

Description

create_version

No

Boolean

Whether to synchronously create a task version when creating a task. Set this parameter to true only when creating a data processing task. For other types of tasks, this parameter is set to false or left blank. Options:

work_path

No

WorkPath object

Work directory of a data processing task. A work directory cannot be an OBS path in a KMS-encrypted bucket.

workspace_id

No

String

Workspace ID. If no workspace is created, the default value is 0. If a workspace is created and used, use the actual value.

  • If type is set to DATASET, source is a dataset ID.

  • If type is set to CUSTOM and the API is called by resource tenants, set source to the project_id of the actual user. Otherwise, this field is left blank.

type

No

String

Data source type. Options:

  • OBS: Data obtained from OBS

  • TASK: Data processing task

  • DATASET: Dataset

Description

id

No

String

Task type, which is the ID of a data processing template. Options:

  • sys_data_analyse: feature analysis

  • sys_data_cleaning: data cleansing

  • sys_data_augmentation: data augmentation

  • sys_data_validation: data validation

  • sys_data_selection: data filtering

name

No

String

Template name.

No

Array of OperatorParam objects

Operator parameter list.

Table 5 OperatorParam

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

advanced_params_switch

No

Boolean

Advanced parameter switch.

id

No

String

ID of an operator.

name

No

String

Name of an operator.

params

No

Object

Operator parameter. The parameter type is map<string,object>. Currently, object only supports the types of Boolean, Integer, Long, String, List[/topic/body/section/table/tgroup/tbody/row/entry/p/br {""}) (br] and Map<String,String>. For two special scenarios of object detection and image classification in a data preprocessing task, the value of task_type is object_detection or image_classification.
