"""Module is a basic module that wrap a `Symbol`. It is functionally the same

Parameters
----------
symbol : Symbol
data_names : list of str
Defaults to `('data')` for a typical model used in image classification.
label_names : list of str
Defaults to `('softmax_label')` for a typical model used in image
classification.
logger : Logger
Defaults to `logging`.
context : Context or list of Context
Defaults to ``mx.cpu()``.
work_load_list : list of number
Default ``None``, indicating uniform workload.
fixed_param_names: list of str
Default ``None``, indicating no network parameters are fixed.
state_names : list of str
states are similar to data and label, but not provided by data iterator.
Instead they are initialized to 0 and can be set by `set_states()`.
group2ctxs : dict of str to context or list of context,
or list of dict of str to context
Default is `None`. Mapping the `ctx_group` attribute to the context assignment.
compression_params : dict
Specifies type of gradient compression and additional arguments depending
on the type of compression being used. For example, 2bit compression requires a threshold.
Arguments would then be {'type':'2bit', 'threshold':0.5}
See mxnet.KVStore.set_gradient_compression method for more details on gradient compression.

'''Prepares the module for processing a data batch.
Usually involves switching bucket and reshaping.
For modules that contain `row_sparse` parameters in KVStore,
it prepares the `row_sparse` parameters based on the sparse_row_id_fn.
When KVStore is used to update parameters for multi-device or multi-machine training,
a copy of the parameters are stored in KVStore. Note that for `row_sparse` parameters,
the `update()` updates the copy of parameters in KVStore, but doesn't broadcast
the updated parameters to all devices / machines. The `prepare` function is used to
broadcast `row_sparse` parameters with the next batch of data.
Parameters
----------
data_batch : DataBatch
The current batch of data for forward computation.
sparse_row_id_fn : A callback function
The function takes `data_batch` as an input and returns a dict of
str -> NDArray. The resulting dict is used for pulling row_sparse
parameters from the kvstore, where the str key is the name of the param,
and the value is the row id of the param to pull.

Parameters
----------
train_data : DataIter
Train DataIter.
eval_data : DataIter
If not ``None``, will be used as validation set and the performance
after each epoch will be evaluated.
eval_metric : str or EvalMetric
Defaults to 'accuracy'. The performance measure used to display during training.
Other possible predefined metrics are:
'ce' (CrossEntropy), 'f1', 'mae', 'mse', 'rmse', 'top_k_accuracy'.
epoch_end_callback : function or list of functions
Each callback will be called with the current `epoch`, `symbol`, `arg_params`
and `aux_params`.
batch_end_callback : function or list of function
Each callback will be called with a `BatchEndParam`.
kvstore : str or KVStore
Defaults to 'local'.
optimizer : str or Optimizer
Defaults to 'sgd'.
optimizer_params : dict
Defaults to ``(('learning_rate', 0.01),)``. The parameters for
the optimizer constructor.
The default value is not a dict, just to avoid pylint warning on dangerous
default values.
eval_end_callback : function or list of function
These will be called at the end of each full evaluation, with the metrics over
the entire evaluation set.
eval_batch_end_callback : function or list of function
These will be called at the end of each mini-batch during evaluation.
initializer : Initializer
The initializer is called to initialize the module parameters when they are
not already initialized.
arg_params : dict
Defaults to ``None``, if not ``None``, should be existing parameters from a trained
model or loaded from a checkpoint (previously saved model). In this case,
the value here will be used to initialize the module parameters, unless they
are already initialized by the user via a call to `init_params` or `fit`.
`arg_params` has a higher priority than `initializer`.
aux_params : dict
Defaults to ``None``. Similar to `arg_params`, except for auxiliary states.
allow_missing : bool
Defaults to ``False``. Indicates whether to allow missing parameters when `arg_params`
and `aux_params` are not ``None``. If this is ``True``, then the missing parameters
will be initialized via the `initializer`.
force_rebind : bool
Defaults to ``False``. Whether to force rebinding the executors if already bound.
force_init : bool
Defaults to ``False``. Indicates whether to force initialization even if the
parameters are already initialized.
begin_epoch : int
Defaults to 0. Indicates the starting epoch. Usually, if resumed from a
checkpoint saved at a previous training phase at epoch N, then this value should be
N+1.
num_epoch : int
Number of epochs for training.
sparse_row_id_fn : A callback function
The function takes `data_batch` as an input and returns a dict of
str -> NDArray. The resulting dict is used for pulling row_sparse
parameters from the kvstore, where the str key is the name of the param,
and the value is the row id of the param to pull.
