Axescheck
At its simplest, Axescheck refers to the systematic validation of coordinate axes, dimensional references, or data vectors within a given system. The term is a portmanteau of "Axes" (referring to the X, Y, Z planes in 3D space, or categorical axes in data) and "Check" (verification against a standard).
However, in professional jargon, Axescheck has evolved to represent a broader discipline: axescheck
The core philosophy of Axescheck is simple: Trust, but verify. Never assume that your axes are correct just because nothing crashed. At its simplest, Axescheck refers to the systematic
Ensuring a batch of data has the correct shape before feeding it to a model. The core philosophy of Axescheck is simple: Trust,
def process_batch(images):
# Verify we have a batch of 4D tensors (Batch, Height, Width, Channels)
# Last axis must be 3 (RGB)
axescheck(images, dims=4, shape=(None, None, None, 3), name="ImageBatch")
# ... proceed with processing ...

For physical hardware, schedule an Axescheck routine every morning at 6 AM before production begins. Use a calibrated artifact (e.g., a 1-2-3 block) that the machine measures automatically.
