To run the code for GPT2 style autoregressive LM, the code is in gpt2/. This corresponds to the table-to-text experiments in the paper.

To run the code for encoder-decoder architecture like BART, the code is in seq2seq. This corresponds to the summarization experiments in the paper.

The two primary scripts I used to run my codes are gpt2/train_e2e.py (for table-to-text) and seq2seq/train_bart.py(for summarization). they are set to default of good hyperparameters, and can be used to tune hyperparameter :)


Setup:

cd transformer; pip install -e .


Train via prefix-tuning:

cd gpt2;

python train_e2e.py --optim_prefix yes --preseqlen 5 --epoch 5 --learning_rate 0.00005 --mode webnlg --bsz 5 --seed 101
cd seq2seq; 

python train_bart.py --mode xsum --preseqlen 200 --do_train yes --fp16 yes --bsz 16  --epoch 30  --gradient_accumulation_step 3 --learning_rate 0.00005  --mid_dim 800

Other baseline approaches

cd gpt2;

python train_e2e.py --tuning_mode {finetune/adaptertune} --epoch 5 --learning_rate 0.00005 --mode webnlg --bsz 5 --seed 101
cd seq2seq;

python train_e2e.py --tuning_mode finetune --epoch 5 --learning_rate 0.00005 --mode webnlg --bsz 5 --seed 101

Decode:

cd gpt2;

python gen.py {data2text/webnlg/...} yes test {checkpoint_path} no
cd seq2seq; 

python train_bart.py --mode xsum --do_train no --prefix_model_path {checkpoint_path} --preseqlen {same as training} --mid_dim {same as training}
