大规模数据集加载解决方案

为了改进该函数的性能并解决大数据量的问题，以下是几个潜在的优化方向：

1. 延迟加载（Lazy Loading）

延迟加载意味着仅在需要时才加载知识库的特定部分。这可以避免一次性加载整个知识库导致的内存问题。

def load_knowledge_base(
        self, knowledge_base_path, image_dict=None, scores_path=None, visual_attr=None
    ):
        """Load the knowledge base with lazy loading for large datasets.

        Args:
            knowledge_base_path: The knowledge base to load.
        """
        self.knowledge_base = WikipediaKnowledgeBase(knowledge_base_path)
        
        # Lazy loading approach: load knowledge base in chunks or on demand
        self.knowledge_base.set_lazy_loading(True)
        
        if image_dict is not None:
            self.knowledge_base.load_image_dict(image_dict)
        
        if scores_path is not None:
            if os.path.isdir(scores_path):
                # Load all scores in the directory in chunks or asynchronously
                self.knowledge_base.load_all_scores(scores_path)
            else:
                # Load a single score file
                self.knowledge_base.load_single_score(scores_path)

        if visual_attr is not None:
            self.knowledge_base.load_visual_attributes(visual_attr)

2. 分块处理（Chunking）

将知识库分成更小的块进行加载，而不是一次性全部加载。特别是在处理非常大的 scores_path 时，可以将它们分批加载，以减少内存压力。

def load_scores_in_chunks(self, scores_path, chunk_size=100):
    """Load the score files in chunks to handle large datasets."""
    all_scores = []
    
    if os.path.isdir(scores_path):
        for score_file in os.listdir(scores_path):
            with open(os.path.join(scores_path, score_file), 'r') as file:
                # Load and process the file in chunks
                while chunk := file.read(chunk_size):
                    all_scores.append(self.process_score(chunk))
    else:
        with open(scores_path, 'r') as file:
            while chunk := file.read(chunk_size):
                all_scores.append(self.process_score(chunk))

    return all_scores

3. 并行化加载（Parallel Loading）

如果系统支持，可以并行加载 image_dict 和 scores_path，利用多线程或多进程来加速数据的加载。

import concurrent.futures

def load_knowledge_base(
        self, knowledge_base_path, image_dict=None, scores_path=None, visual_attr=None
    ):
        """Load the knowledge base in parallel for large datasets.

        Args:
            knowledge_base_path: The knowledge base to load.
        """
        self.knowledge_base = WikipediaKnowledgeBase(knowledge_base_path)
        
        # Parallel loading of image_dict and scores_path
        with concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor() as executor:
            futures = []
            if image_dict is not None:
                futures.append(executor.submit(self.knowledge_base.load_image_dict, image_dict))
            
            if scores_path is not None:
                if os.path.isdir(scores_path):
                    futures.append(executor.submit(self.knowledge_base.load_all_scores, scores_path))
                else:
                    futures.append(executor.submit(self.knowledge_base.load_single_score, scores_path))

            if visual_attr is not None:
                futures.append(executor.submit(self.knowledge_base.load_visual_attributes, visual_attr))
            
            for future in concurrent.futures.as_completed(futures):
                future.result()  # Ensure all tasks complete before proceeding

4. 压缩和序列化

如果知识库数据量非常大，可以考虑压缩或序列化数据，以减少加载时间。例如，使用 pickle 或 h5py 来保存和加载大型数据。

import pickle

def load_knowledge_base(
        self, knowledge_base_path, image_dict=None, scores_path=None, visual_attr=None
    ):
        """Load a compressed knowledge base for large datasets.

        Args:
            knowledge_base_path: The knowledge base to load.
        """
        with open(knowledge_base_path, 'rb') as kb_file:
            self.knowledge_base = pickle.load(kb_file)
        
        if image_dict is not None:
            self.knowledge_base.load_image_dict(image_dict)
        
        if scores_path is not None:
            if os.path.isdir(scores_path):
                self.knowledge_base.load_all_scores(scores_path)
            else:
                self.knowledge_base.load_single_score(scores_path)
        
        if visual_attr is not None:
            self.knowledge_base.load_visual_attributes(visual_attr)

5. 数据库支持

考虑将知识库存储在数据库（如 SQLite、MySQL、PostgreSQL）中，这样可以根据需要查询并加载特定的数据，而不是一次性全部加载。

综合建议：

• 延迟加载 可以显著减少启动时的内存消耗。
• 分块处理 和 并行化加载 可以加速加载过程，特别是在面对海量数据时。
• 根据应用场景，可以选择将数据进行压缩或存储在数据库中，并按需加载。

这些改进方案将提高加载性能，并降低内存占用。
