/WordEmbeddings-Elmo-Fasttext-Word2Vec

Using pre trained word embeddings (Fasttext, Word2Vec)

Primary LanguagePython

WordEmbeddings-ELMo, Fasttext, FastText (Gensim) and Word2Vec

This implementation gives the flexibility of choosing word embeddings on your corpus. One has the option of choosing word Embeddings from ELMo (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1802.05365.pdf) - recently introduced by Allennlp and these word vectors are learned functions of the internal states of a deep bidirectional language model (biLM), which is pre-trained on a large text corpus. Also fastext embeddings (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.09405.pdf) published in LREC from Thomas Mikolov and team is available. ELMo embeddings outperformed the Fastext, Glove and Word2Vec on an average by 2~2.5% on a simple Imdb sentiment classification task (Keras Dataset).

USAGE:

To run it on the Imdb dataset,

run: python main.py

To run it on your data: comment out line 32-40 and uncomment 41-53

FILES:

  • word_embeddings.py – contains all the functions for embedding and choosing which word embedding model you want to choose.
  • config.json – you can mention all your parameters here (embedding dimension, maxlen for padding, etc)
  • model_params.json - you can mention all your model parameters here (epochs, batch size etc.)
  • main.py – This is the main file. Just use this file to run in terminal.

You have the option of choosing the word vector model

In config.json specify “option” as 0 – Word2vec, 1 – Gensim FastText, 2- Fasttext (FAIR), 3- ELMo

The model is very generic. You can change your model as per your requirements.
