doc/ABTEST_IN_PADDLE_SERVING.md

+# ABTEST in Paddle Serving
+
+This document will use an example of text classification task based on IMDB dataset to show how to build a A/B Test framework using Paddle Serving. The structure relationship between the client and servers in the example is shown in the figure below.
+
+<img src="abtest.png" style="zoom:33%;" />
+
+Note that:  A/B Test is only applicable to RPC mode, not web mode.
+
+### Download Data and Models
+
+```shell
+cd Serving/python/examples/imdb
+sh get_data.sh
+```
+
+### Processing Data
+
+The following Python code will process the data `test_data/part-0` and write to the `processed.data` file.
+
+``` python
+from imdb_reader import IMDBDataset
+imdb_dataset = IMDBDataset()
+imdb_dataset.load_resource('imdb.vocab')
+
+with open('test_data/part-0') as fin:
+    with open('processed.data', 'w') as fout:
+        for line in fin:
+            word_ids, label = imdb_dataset.get_words_and_label(line)
+            fout.write("{};{}\n".format(','.join([str(x) for x in word_ids]), label[0]))
+```
+
+### Start Server
+
+Here, we [use docker](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Serving/blob/develop/doc/RUN_IN_DOCKER.md) to start the server-side service. 
+
+First, start the BOW server, which enables the `8000` port:
+
+``` shell
+docker run -dit -v $PWD/imdb_bow_model:/model -p 8000:8000 --name bow-server hub.baidubce.com/paddlepaddle/serving:0.1.3
+docker exec -it bow-server bash
+pip install paddle-serving-server
+python -m paddle_serving_server.serve --model model --port 8000 >std.log 2>err.log &
+exit
+```
+
+Similarly, start the LSTM server, which enables the `9000` port:
+
+```bash
+docker run -dit -v $PWD/imdb_lstm_model:/model -p 9000:9000 --name lstm-server hub.baidubce.com/paddlepaddle/serving:0.1.3
+docker exec -it lstm-server bash
+pip install paddle-serving-server
+python -m paddle_serving_server.serve --model model --port 9000 >std.log 2>err.log &
+exit
+```
+
+### Start Client
+
+Run the following Python code on the host computer to start client. Make sure that the host computer is installed with the `paddle-serving-client` package.
+
+``` go
+from paddle_serving_client import Client
+
+client = Client()
+client.load_client_config('imdb_bow_client_conf/serving_client_conf.prototxt')
+client.add_variant("bow", ["127.0.0.1:8000"], 10)
+client.add_variant("lstm", ["127.0.0.1:9000"], 90)
+client.connect()
+
+with open('processed.data') as f:
+    cnt = {"bow": {'acc': 0, 'total': 0}, "lstm": {'acc': 0, 'total': 0}}
+    for line in f:
+        word_ids, label = line.split(';')
+        word_ids = [int(x) for x in word_ids.split(',')]
+        feed = {"words": word_ids}
+        fetch = ["acc", "cost", "prediction"]
+        [fetch_map, tag] = client.predict(feed=feed, fetch=fetch, need_variant_tag=True)
+        if (float(fetch_map["prediction"][1]) - 0.5) * (float(label[0]) - 0.5) > 0:
+            cnt[tag]['acc'] += 1
+        cnt[tag]['total'] += 1
+
+    for tag, data in cnt.items():
+        print('[{}](total: {}) acc: {}'.format(tag, data['total'], float(data['acc']) / float(data['total'])))
+```
+
+In the code, the function `client.add_variant(tag, clusters, variant_weight)` is to add a variant with label `tag` and flow weight `variant_weight`. In this example, a BOW variant with label of `bow` and flow weight of `10`, and an LSTM variant with label of `lstm` and a flow weight of `90` are added. The flow on the client side will be distributed to two variants according to the ratio of `10:90`.
+
+When making prediction on the client side, if the parameter `need_variant_tag=True` is specified, the response will contains the variant tag corresponding to the distribution flow.
+
+### Expected Results
+
+``` python
+[lstm](total: 1867) acc: 0.490091055169
+[bow](total: 217) acc: 0.73732718894
+```

doc/ABTEST_IN_PADDLE_SERVING_CN.md

+# 如何使用Paddle Serving做ABTEST
+
+该文档将会用一个基于IMDB数据集的文本分类任务的例子，介绍如何使用Paddle Serving搭建A/B Test框架，例中的Client端、Server端结构如下图所示。
+
+<img src="abtest.png" style="zoom:33%;" />
+
+需要注意的是：A/B Test只适用于RPC模式，不适用于WEB模式。
+
+### 下载数据以及模型
+
+``` shell
+cd Serving/python/examples/imdb
+sh get_data.sh
+```
+
+### 处理数据
+
+下面Python代码将处理`test_data/part-0`的数据，写入`processed.data`文件中。
+
+```python
+from imdb_reader import IMDBDataset
+imdb_dataset = IMDBDataset()
+imdb_dataset.load_resource('imdb.vocab')
+
+with open('test_data/part-0') as fin:
+    with open('processed.data', 'w') as fout:
+        for line in fin:
+            word_ids, label = imdb_dataset.get_words_and_label(line)
+            fout.write("{};{}\n".format(','.join([str(x) for x in word_ids]), label[0]))
+```
+
+### 启动Server端
+
+这里采用[Docker方式](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Serving/blob/develop/doc/RUN_IN_DOCKER_CN.md)启动Server端服务。
+
+首先启动BOW Server，该服务启用`8000`端口：
+
+```bash
+docker run -dit -v $PWD/imdb_bow_model:/model -p 8000:8000 --name bow-server hub.baidubce.com/paddlepaddle/serving:0.1.3
+docker exec -it bow-server bash
+pip install paddle-serving-server
+python -m paddle_serving_server.serve --model model --port 8000 >std.log 2>err.log &
+exit
+```
+
+同理启动LSTM Server，该服务启用`9000`端口：
+
+```bash
+docker run -dit -v $PWD/imdb_lstm_model:/model -p 9000:9000 --name lstm-server hub.baidubce.com/paddlepaddle/serving:0.1.3
+docker exec -it lstm-server bash
+pip install paddle-serving-server
+python -m paddle_serving_server.serve --model model --port 9000 >std.log 2>err.log &
+exit
+```
+
+### 启动Client端
+
+在宿主机运行下面Python代码启动Client端，需要确保宿主机装好`paddle-serving-client`包。
+
+```python
+from paddle_serving_client import Client
+
+client = Client()
+client.load_client_config('imdb_bow_client_conf/serving_client_conf.prototxt')
+client.add_variant("bow", ["127.0.0.1:8000"], 10)
+client.add_variant("lstm", ["127.0.0.1:9000"], 90)
+client.connect()
+
+with open('processed.data') as f:
+    cnt = {"bow": {'acc': 0, 'total': 0}, "lstm": {'acc': 0, 'total': 0}}
+    for line in f:
+        word_ids, label = line.split(';')
+        word_ids = [int(x) for x in word_ids.split(',')]
+        feed = {"words": word_ids}
+        fetch = ["acc", "cost", "prediction"]
+        [fetch_map, tag] = client.predict(feed=feed, fetch=fetch, need_variant_tag=True)
+        if (float(fetch_map["prediction"][1]) - 0.5) * (float(label[0]) - 0.5) > 0:
+            cnt[tag]['acc'] += 1
+        cnt[tag]['total'] += 1
+
+    for tag, data in cnt.items():
+        print('[{}](total: {}) acc: {}'.format(tag, data['total'], float(data['acc']) / float(data['total'])))
+```
+
+代码中，`client.add_variant(tag, clusters, variant_weight)`是为了添加一个标签为`tag`、流量权重为`variant_weight`的variant。在这个样例中，添加了一个标签为`bow`、流量权重为`10`的BOW variant，以及一个标签为`lstm`、流量权重为`90`的LSTM variant。Client端的流量会根据`10:90`的比例分发到两个variant。
+
+Client端做预测时，若指定参数`need_variant_tag=True`，返回值则包含分发流量对应的variant标签。
+
+### 预期结果
+
+``` bash
+[lstm](total: 1867) acc: 0.490091055169
+[bow](total: 217) acc: 0.73732718894
+```

doc/BERT_10_MINS.md

+## 十分钟构建Bert-As-Service
+
+Bert-As-Service的目标是给定一个句子，服务可以将句子表示成一个语义向量返回给用户。[Bert模型](https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.04805)是目前NLP领域的热门模型，在多种公开的NLP任务上都取得了很好的效果，使用Bert模型计算出的语义向量来做其他NLP模型的输入对提升模型的表现也有很大的帮助。Bert-As-Service可以让用户很方便地获取文本的语义向量表示并应用到自己的任务中。为了实现这个目标，我们通过四个步骤说明使用Paddle Serving在十分钟内就可以搭建一个这样的服务。示例中所有的代码和文件均可以在Paddle Serving的[示例](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Serving/tree/develop/python/examples/bert)中找到。
+
+#### Step1：保存可服务模型
+
+Paddle Serving支持基于Paddle进行训练的各种模型，并通过指定模型的输入和输出变量来保存可服务模型。为了方便，我们可以从paddlehub加载一个已经训练好的bert中文模型，并利用两行代码保存一个可部署的服务，服务端和客户端的配置分别放在`bert_seq20_model`和`bert_seq20_client`文件夹。
+
+``` python
+import paddlehub as hub
+model_name = "bert_chinese_L-12_H-768_A-12"
+module = hub.Module(model_name)
+inputs, outputs, program = module.context(
+    trainable=True, max_seq_len=20)
+feed_keys = ["input_ids", "position_ids", "segment_ids",
+             "input_mask"]
+fetch_keys = ["pooled_output", "sequence_output"]
+feed_dict = dict(zip(feed_keys, [inputs[x] for x in feed_keys]))
+fetch_dict = dict(zip(fetch_keys, [outputs[x] for x in fetch_keys]))
+

+                      feed_dict, fetch_dict, program)
+```
+
+#### Step2：启动服务
+
+``` shell
+python -m paddle_serving_server_gpu.serve --model bert_seq20_model --thread 10 --port 9292 --gpu_ids 0
+```
+
+| 参数    | 含义                       |
+| ------- | -------------------------- |
+| model   | server端配置与模型文件路径 |
+| thread  | server端线程数             |
+| port    | server端端口号             |
+| gpu_ids | GPU索引号                  |
+
+#### Step3：客户端数据预处理逻辑
+
+Paddle Serving内建了很多经典典型对应的数据预处理逻辑，对于中文Bert语义表示的计算，我们采用paddle_serving_app下的ChineseBertReader类进行数据预处理，开发者可以很容易获得一个原始的中文句子对应的多个模型输入字段。
+
+安装paddle_serving_app
+
+```shell
+pip install paddle_serving_app
+```
+
+#### Step4：客户端访问
+
+客户端脚本 bert_client.py内容如下
+
+``` python
+import os
+import sys
+from paddle_serving_client import Client
+from paddle_serving_app import ChineseBertReader
+
+reader = ChineseBertReader()
+fetch = ["pooled_output"]
+endpoint_list = ["127.0.0.1:9292"]
+client = Client()
+client.load_client_config("bert_seq20_client/serving_client_conf.prototxt")
+client.connect(endpoint_list)
+
+for line in sys.stdin:
+    feed_dict = reader.process(line)
+    result = client.predict(feed=feed_dict, fetch=fetch)
+```
+
+执行
+
+```shell
+cat data.txt | python bert_client.py
+```
+
+从data.txt文件中读取样例，并将结果打印到标准输出。
+
+### 性能测试
+
+我们基于V100对基于Padde Serving研发的Bert-As-Service的性能进行测试并与基于Tensorflow实现的Bert-As-Service进行对比，从用户配置的角度，采用相同的batch size和并发数进行压力测试，得到4块V100下的整体吞吐性能数据如下。

doc/CUBE_QUANT.md

+# Quantization Storage on Cube Sparse Parameter Indexing
+
+([简体中文](./CUBE_QUANT_CN.md)|English)
+
+## Overview
+
+In our previous article, we know that the sparse parameter is a series of floating-point numbers with large dimensions, and floating-point numbers require 4 Bytes of storage space in the computer. In fact, we don't need very high precision of floating point numbers to achieve a comparable model effect, in exchange for a lot of space savings, speeding up model loading and query speed.
+
+## Precondition
+
+Please Read  [Cube: Sparse Parameter Indexing Service (Local Mode)](./CUBE_LOCAL_CN.md)
+
+
+##  Components
+### seq_generator:
+This tool is used to convert the Paddle model into a Sequence File. Here, two modes are given. The first is the normal mode. The value in the generated KV sequence is saved as an uncompressed floating point number. The second is the quantization mode. The Value in the generated KV sequence is stored according to [min, max, bytes]. See the specific principle ([Post-Training 4-bit Quantization on Embedding Tables](https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.02079))
+
+
+##  Usage
+
+In Serving Directory，train the model in the criteo_ctr_with_cube directory
+
+```
+cd python/examples/criteo_ctr_with_cube
+python local_train.py # save model
+```
+Next, you can use quantization and non-quantization to generate Sequence File for Cube sparse parameter indexing.
+
+```
+seq_generator ctr_serving_model/SparseFeatFactors ./cube_model/feature # naive mode
+seq_generator ctr_serving_model/SparseFeatFactors ./cube_model/feature 8 #quantization
+```
+This command will convert the sparse parameter file SparseFeatFactors in the ctr_serving_model directory into a feature file (Sequence File format) in the cube_model directory. At present, the quantization tool only supports 8-bit quantization. In the future, it will support higher compression rates and more types of quantization methods.
+
+## Launch Serving by Quantized Model
+
+In Serving, a quantized model is used when using general_dist_kv_quant_infer op to make predictions. See python/examples/criteo_ctr_with_cube/test_server_quant.py for details. No changes are required on the client side.
+
+In order to make the demo easier for users, the following script is to train the quantized criteo ctr model and launch serving by it.
+```
+cd python/examples/criteo_ctr_with_cube
+python local_train.py
+cp ../../../build_server/core/predictor/seq_generator seq_generator
+cp ../../../build_server/output/bin/cube* ./cube/
+sh cube_prepare_quant.sh &
+python test_server_quant.py ctr_serving_model_kv &
+python test_client.py ctr_client_conf/serving_client_conf.prototxt ./raw_data
+```
+
+Users can compare AUC results after quantization with AUC before quantization. 

doc/CUBE_QUANT_CN.md

+# Cube稀疏参数索引量化存储使用指南
+
+(简体中文|[English](./CUBE_QUANT.md))
+
+## 总体概览
+
+我们在之前的文章中，知道稀疏参数是维度很大的一系列浮点数，而浮点数在计算机中需要4 Byte的存储空间。事实上，我们并不需要很高的浮点数精度就可以实现相当的模型效果，换来大量的空间节约，加快模型的加载速度和查询速度。
+
+
+## 前序要求
+
+请先读取  [稀疏参数索引服务Cube单机版使用指南](./CUBE_LOCAL_CN.md)
+
+
+##  组件介绍
+### seq_generator:
+此工具用于把Paddle的模型转换成Sequence File，在这里，我给出了两种模式，第一种是普通模式，生成的KV序列当中的Value以未压缩的浮点数来进行保存。第二种是量化模式，生成的KV序列当中的Value按照 [min, max, bytes]来存储。具体原理请参见 ([Post-Training 4-bit Quantization on Embedding Tables](https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.02079))
+
+
+##  使用方法
+
+在Serving主目录下，到criteo_ctr_with_cube目录下训练出模型
+
+```
+cd python/examples/criteo_ctr_with_cube
+python local_train.py # 生成模型
+```
+接下来可以使用量化和非量化两种方式去生成Sequence File用于Cube稀疏参数索引。
+```
+seq_generator ctr_serving_model/SparseFeatFactors ./cube_model/feature # 未量化模式
+seq_generator ctr_serving_model/SparseFeatFactors ./cube_model/feature 8 #量化模式
+```
+此命令会讲ctr_serving_model目录下的稀疏参数文件SparseFeatFactors转换为cube_model目录下的feature文件(Sequence File格式)。目前量化工具仅支持8bit量化，未来将支持压缩率更高和种类更多的量化方法。
+
+## 用量化模型启动Serving
+
+在Serving当中，使用general_dist_kv_quant_infer op来进行预测时使用量化模型。具体详见  python/examples/criteo_ctr_with_cube/test_server_quant.py。客户端部分不需要做任何改动。
+
+为方便用户做demo，我们给出了从0开始启动量化模型Serving。
+```
+cd python/examples/criteo_ctr_with_cube
+python local_train.py
+cp ../../../build_server/core/predictor/seq_generator seq_generator
+cp ../../../build_server/output/bin/cube* ./cube/
+sh cube_prepare_quant.sh &
+python test_server_quant.py ctr_serving_model_kv &
+python test_client.py ctr_client_conf/serving_client_conf.prototxt ./raw_data
+```
+
+用户可以将量化后的AUC结果同量化前的AUC做比较
