GrpcLearner(backend)

Bases: SupervisedLearner, Model

Binding for an external learner using gRPC.

This learner class connects to an external learner using gRPC. Processed data for training or inference is sent to the learner and results are received from it.

Create a GrpcLearner.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
backend	_Backend	The backend to use for the learner.	required

with_address(address) classmethod

Create a GrpcLearner with a specific address.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
