LSTM Model for Predicting the Next Word

Welcome to the Next Word Prediction Model repository! This project implements a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network to predict the next word in a sequence of text. The model is designed to enhance text-based applications, such as chatbots, autocomplete systems, and text editors.

๐Ÿ“Œ Features

  • Deep Learning Architecture: Built using LSTM layers for effective sequence modeling.
  • Training with Large Datasets: Trained on large text corpora to ensure high accuracy.
  • Customizable: Easily retrainable with your own dataset.
  • Real-Time Predictions: Optimized for quick and efficient word prediction.

๐Ÿš€ Getting Started

Follow these steps to set up and run the model:

Prerequisites

Ensure you have Python installed along with the following libraries:

pip install tensorflow numpy pandas nltk

Installation

Clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/lstm-next-word-prediction.git
cd lstm-next-word-prediction

Dataset Preparation

  1. Provide a text dataset for training (e.g., books, articles, or conversations).
  2. Place the dataset file in the data/ folder and name it dataset.txt.
  3. The preprocessing script will tokenize and prepare the text for training.

Model Training

Train the LSTM model by running:

python train_model.py

This script will:

  • Preprocess the dataset
  • Train the LSTM model
  • Save the trained model in the model/ directory

Predicting the Next Word

After training, use the model to predict the next word in a sequence:

python predict_next_word.py "The quick brown"

Example output:

Predicted next word: fox

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ How It Works

  1. Data Preprocessing:

    • Tokenizes the input text.
    • Creates sequences of words.
    • Converts sequences into numerical format for model training.
  2. LSTM Model:

    • Uses TensorFlow/Keras to build a sequential LSTM model.
    • Learns word dependencies to predict the next word.
  3. Prediction:

    • Accepts a string of words as input.
    • Outputs the most probable next word.

๐Ÿงช Testing

You can test the model using a pre-trained example or your custom-trained model. Use the predict_next_word.py script to evaluate real-time predictions.
