Parameters:filename (str) – The file where the data resides in snap format. Returns:data partition – Returns a data partition in sparse, dense or compressed sparse format which will be used for distributed _snap_ml training and inference. The type of data format (sparse, dense, compressed) is automatically detected from the input file header.
