Write Inference Config#

Use an inference config when you need to author an inference pipeline outside an exported manifest.

model:
  class_path: physicalai.inference.InferenceModel
  init_args:
    export_dir: ./exports/act_policy
    backend: openvino
    device: CPU

If the manifest already contains the required runner, artifacts, processors, and hardware metadata, prefer loading from the manifest instead.

model = InferenceModel("./exports/act_policy")
action = model.select_action(observation)

Use workflow config to express user-authored intent. Use a manifest to describe exported package metadata.

To export a model’s supplied constructor arguments from Python, call Config.from_instance(model). Rebuild that trusted local recipe with config.instantiate(); construction loads the model package and can allocate substantial resources.
