I am cross-posting from StackOverflow, I hope it’s not against the rules.
I am failing to implement a numba jitted priority queue.
Heavily plagiarized from the python docs, I am fairly happy with this class.
import itertools
import numba as nb
from numba.experimental import jitclass
from typing import List, Tuple, Dict
from heapq import heappush, heappop
class PurePythonPriorityQueue:
def __init__(self):
self.pq = [] # list of entries arranged in a heap
self.entry_finder = {} # mapping of indices to entries
self.REMOVED = -1 # placeholder for a removed item
self.counter = itertools.count() # unique sequence count
def put(self, item: Tuple[int, int], priority: float = 0.0):
"""Add a new item or update the priority of an existing item"""
if item in self.entry_finder:
self.remove_item(item)
count = next(self.counter)
entry = [priority, count, item]
self.entry_finder[item] = entry
heappush(self.pq, entry)
def remove_item(self, item: Tuple[int, int]):
"""Mark an existing item as REMOVED. Raise KeyError if not found."""
entry = self.entry_finder.pop(item)
entry[-1] = self.REMOVED
def pop(self):
"""Remove and return the lowest priority item. Raise KeyError if empty."""
while self.pq:
priority, count, item = heappop(self.pq)
if item is not self.REMOVED:
del self.entry_finder[item]
return item
raise KeyError("pop from an empty priority queue")
Now I would like to call this from a numba jitted function doing heavy numerical work, so I tried to make this a numba jitclass. Since entries are heterogeneous list in the vanilla python implementation, I figured I should implement other jitclasses as well. However, I am getting a Failed in nopython mode pipeline (step: nopython frontend) (full trace below).
Here is my attempt:
@jitclass
class Item:
i: int
j: int
def __init__(self, i, j):
self.i = i
self.j = j
@jitclass
class Entry:
priority: float
count: int
item: Item
removed: bool
def __init__(self, p: float, c: int, i: Item):
self.priority = p
self.count = c
self.item = i
self.removed = False
@jitclass
class PriorityQueue:
pq: List[Entry]
entry_finder: Dict[Item, Entry]
counter: int
def __init__(self):
self.pq = nb.typed.List.empty_list(Entry(0.0, 0, Item(0, 0)))
self.entry_finder = nb.typed.Dict.empty(Item(0, 0), Entry(0, 0, Item(0, 0)))
self.counter = 0
def put(self, item: Item, priority: float = 0.0):
"""Add a new item or update the priority of an existing item"""
if item in self.entry_finder:
self.remove_item(item)
self.counter += 1
entry = Entry(priority, self.counter, item)
self.entry_finder[item] = entry
heappush(self.pq, entry)
def remove_item(self, item: Item):
"""Mark an existing item as REMOVED. Raise KeyError if not found."""
entry = self.entry_finder.pop(item)
entry.removed = True
def pop(self):
"""Remove and return the lowest priority item. Raise KeyError if empty."""
while self.pq:
priority, count, item = heappop(self.pq)
entry = heappop(self.pq)
if not entry.removed:
del self.entry_finder[entry.item]
return item
raise KeyError("pop from an empty priority queue")
if __name__ == "__main__":
queue1 = PurePythonPriorityQueue()
queue1.put((4, 5), 5.4)
queue1.put((5, 6), 1.0)
print(queue1.pop()) # Yay this works!
queue2 = PriorityQueue() # Nope
queue2.put(Item(4, 5), 5.4)
queue2.put(Item(5, 6), 1.0)
print(queue2.pop())
Is this type of data structure implementable with numba? What is wrong with my current implementation?
