word2vec-scala

This is a Scala implementation of the word2vec toolkit's model representation.

This Scala interface allows the user to access the vector representation output by the word2vec toolkit. It also implements example operations that can be done on the vectors (e.g., word-distance, word-analogy).

Note that it does NOT implement the actual training algorithms. You will still need to download and compile the original word2vec tool if you wish to train new models.

Includes

The included model (vectors.bin) was trained on the text8 corpus, which contains the first 100 MB of the "clean" English Wikipedia corpus. The following training parameters were used:

./word2vec -train text8 -output vectors.bin -cbow 0 -size 200 -window 5 -negative 0 -hs 1 -sample 1e-3 -threads 12 -binary 1

Usage

Load model

val model = new Word2Vec()
model.load("vectors.bin")

Distance - Find N best matches

val results = model.distance(List("france"), N = 10)
model.pprint(results)

Compatibility

[06/2016] The code was tested to work with models trained using gensim 0.12.4. It should also work with future revisions, assuming that the output format does not change.
