Fixes #15

Problem

Two bugs in medicalai/chief/core.py:

Bug 1: predict() infinite loop on generators (Issue #5)

When safe=False (the default), the predict() method passes generators to model.predict() without the steps parameter. TensorFlow/Keras requires steps when using generators — without it, the model loops indefinitely waiting for more batches.

The safe=True code path correctly passes steps:

  • ImageSequenceFromDF: steps=(input.n/input.batch_size)
  • generator + STEP_SIZE: steps=input.STEP_SIZE
  • image_data_generator: steps=(input.n/input.batch_size)

But the default safe=False path omits steps for both generator types.

Bug 2: load_network() NameError

load_network(self, fileName) references modelName (lines 427-430) which doesn't exist in the method scope — the parameter is fileName. This causes a NameError at runtime.

Fix

  1. predict() generators: Added steps parameter to the non-safe code path, matching the safe path logic:

    • generator + STEP_SIZEsteps=input.STEP_SIZE
    • image_data_generator / ImageSequenceFromDFsteps=(input.n // input.batch_size) + 1
  2. load_network() NameError: Changed modelNamefileName to match the method parameter.

Verification

  • Python syntax check: ✅ ast.parse() passes
  • Structural verification: The non-safe path now mirrors the safe path's steps logic exactly
  • Tests require TensorFlow (not available in CI-less environment), but the fix is a direct pattern match against the working safe=True code path

…work() NameError

Fixes aibharata#15

1. predict() infinite loop: When safe=False (the default), generators
   were passed to model.predict() without the steps parameter, causing
   TensorFlow to loop indefinitely. Added steps matching the safe=True
   code path:
   - generator+STEP_SIZE: steps=input.STEP_SIZE
   - image_data_generator/ImageSequenceFromDF: steps=(input.n // input.batch_size) + 1

2. load_network() NameError: The method parameter is fileName but the
   body referenced modelName, causing NameError at runtime. Fixed to
   use the correct parameter name.
