"# Getting Started: Exploring Nemo Fundamentals\n",
"\n",
"NeMo is a toolkit for creating [Conversational AI](https://developer.nvidia.com/conversational-ai#started) applications.\n",
"\n",
"NeMo toolkit makes it possible for researchers to easily compose complex neural network architectures for conversational AI using reusable components - Neural Modules. Neural Modules are conceptual blocks of neural networks that take typed inputs and produce typed outputs. Such modules typically represent data layers, encoders, decoders, language models, loss functions, or methods of combining activations.\n",
"\n",
"The toolkit comes with extendable collections of pre-built modules and ready-to-use models for automatic speech recognition (ASR), natural language processing (NLP) and text synthesis (TTS). Built for speed, NeMo can utilize NVIDIA's Tensor Cores and scale out training to multiple GPUs and multiple nodes.\n",

"---------\n",
"\n",
"NeMo models leverage [PyTorch Lightning](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning) Module, and are compatible with the entire PyTorch ecosystem. This means that users have the full flexibility of using the higher level APIs provided by PyTorch Lightning (via Trainer), or write their own training and evaluation loops in PyTorch directly (by simply calling the model and the individual components of the model).\n",
"\n",
"For NeMo developers, a \"Model\" is the neural network(s) as well as all the infrastructure supporting those network(s), wrapped into a singular, cohesive unit. As such, all NeMo models are constructed to contain the following out of the box (at the bare minimum, some models support additional functionality too!) - \n",
"\n",
" - Neural Network architecture - all of the modules that are required for the model.\n",
"\n",
" - Dataset + Data Loaders - all of the components that prepare the data for consumption during training or evaluation.\n",
"\n",
" - Preprocessing + Postprocessing - all of the components that process the datasets so they can easily be consumed by the modules.\n",
"\n",
" - Optimizer + Schedulers - basic defaults that work out of the box, and allow further experimentation with ease.\n",
"\n",
" - Any other supporting infrastructure - tokenizers, language model configuration, data augmentation etc.\n",

"With the above in mind, let's tackle why we don't have `setup_multi_train_data`. \n",
"\n",
"NeMo is concerned with multiple domains - `asr`, `nlp` and `tts`. The way datasets are setup and used in these domains is dramatically different. It is often unclear what it means to have multiple train datasets - do we concatenate them? Do we randomly sample (with same or different probability) from each of them? \n",
"\n",
"Therefore we leave such support for multiple datasets up to the model itself. For example, in ASR, you can concatenate multiple train manifest files by using commas when providing the `manifest_filepath` value!"

"### What are multi methods?\n",
"\n",
"In many cases, especially true for ASR and NLP, we may have multiple validation and test datasets. The most common example for this in ASR is `Librispeech`, which has `dev_clean`, `dev_other`, `test_clean`, `test_other`.\n",
"\n",
"NeMo standardizes how to handle multiple data loaders for validation and testing, so that all of our collections have a similar look and feel, as well as ease development of our models. During evaluation, these datasets are treated independently and prepended with resolved names so that logs are separate!\n",
"\n",
"The `multi` methods are therefore generalizations of the single validation and single test data setup methods, with some additional functionality. If you provide multiple datasets, you still have to write code for just one dataset and NeMo will automatically attach the appropriate names to your logs so you can differentiate between them!\n",
"\n",
"Furthermore, they also automatically preserve the config the user passes to them when updating the validation or test data loaders.\n",
"\n",
"**In general, it is preferred to call the `setup_multi_validation_data` and `setup_multi_test_data` methods, even if you are only using single datasets, simply for the automated management they provide.**"

"## Creating Model from constructor vs restoring a model\n",
"---------\n",
"\n",
"You might notice, we discuss all of the above setup methods in the context of model after it is restored. However, NeMo scripts do not call them inside any of the example train scripts themselves.\n",
"\n",
"This is because these methods are automatically called by the constructor when the Model is created for the first time, but these methods are skipped during restoration (either from a PyTorch Lightning checkpoint using `load_from_checkpoint`, or via `restore_from` method inside NeMo Models).\n",
"\n",
"This is done as most datasets are stored on a user's local directory, and the path to these datasets is set in the config (either set by default, or set by Hydra overrides). On the other hand, the models are meant to be portable. On another user's system, the data might not be placed at exactly the same location, or even on the same drive as specified in the model's config!\n",
"\n",
"Therefore we allow the constructor some brevity and automate such dataset setup, whereas restoration warns that data loaders were not set up and provides the user with ways to set up their own datasets.\n",
"\n",
"------\n",
"\n",
"Why are optimizers not restored automatically? Well, optimizers themselves don't face an issue, but as we saw before, schedulers depend on the number of train steps in order to calculate their schedule.\n",
"\n",
"However, if you don't wish to modify the optimizer and scheduler, and prefer to leave them to their default values, that's perfectly alright. The `setup_optimization()` method is automatically called by PyTorch Lightning for you when you begin training your model!"
