The nrtk-jatic package is an extension of the Natural Robustness Toolkit
(NRTK) containing implementations
and examples in compliance with protocols from the Modular AI Trustworthy Engineering
(MAITE) library.
These packages (among others) are developed under the
Joint AI Test Infrastructure Capability (JATIC) program
for AI Test & Evaluation (T&E) and AI Assurance.
The nrtk-jatic package consists of implementations and utilities that ensure
interoperability of nrtk functionality with maite. The scripts under
src/nrtk_jatic/interop consist of protocol implementations that are compliant
with maite's dataset and augmentation protocols. The src/nrtk_jatic/utils
folder houses generic util scripts and the NRTK CLI entrypoint script.
Finally, the examples folder consists of Jupyter notebooks showing
end-to-end ML T&E workflows demonstrating natural robustness testing of computer vision models with nrtk,
and integrations of nrtk with other JATIC tools,
by using the interoperability standards provided by maite

To install the current version via pip:
pip install nrtk-jaticAlternatively, you can use Poetry:
poetry installCertain plugins may require additional runtime dependencies. Details on these requirements can be found here.
For more detailed installation instructions, visit the installation documentation.
Explore usage examples of the nrtk-jatic package in various contexts using the Jupyter notebooks provided in the ./examples/ directory.
Contributions are encouraged! For more details, refer to the CONTRIBUTING.md file.
Documentation for both release snapshots and the latest master branch is available on ReadTheDocs.
To build the Sphinx-based documentation locally for the latest reference:
# Install dependencies
poetry install --sync --with linting,tests,docs
# Navigate to the documentation root
cd docs
# Build the documentation
poetry run make html
# Open the generated documentation in your browser
firefox _build/html/index.htmlPre-commit hooks ensure that code complies with required linting and formatting guidelines. These hooks run automatically before commits but can also be executed manually. To bypass checks during a commit, use the --no-verify flag.
To install and use pre-commit hooks:
# Install required dependencies
poetry install --sync --with linting,tests,docs
# Initialize pre-commit hooks for the repository
poetry run pre-commit install
# Run pre-commit checks on all files
poetry run pre-commit run --all-files- Follow the JATIC Design Principles.
- Adopt the Git Flow branching strategy.
