This is the solution for Zhihu Machine Learning Challenge 2017. We won the champion out of 963 teams.

1. Setup

  • install PyTorch from pytorch.org (Python 2, CUDA)
  • install other depencies:
    pip2 install -r requirements.txt

You may need tf.contrib.keras.preprocessing.sequence.pad_sequences for data preprocessing.

  • start visdom for visualization:
    python2 -m visdom.server

2. Data Preprocessing

Modify the data path in the related file

2.1 wordvector file -> numpy file

python scripts/data_process/embedding2matrix.py main char_embedding.txt char_embedding.npz 
python scripts/data_process/embedding2matrix.py main word_embedding.txt word_embedding.npz 

2.2 question set -> numpy file

it's memory consuming , make sure you have memory larger than 32G.

python scripts/data_process/question2array.py main question_train_set.txt train.npz
python scripts/data_process/question2array.py main question_eval_set.txt test.npz

2.3 label -> json

python scripts/data_process/label2id.py main question_topic_train_set.txt labels.json

2.4 validation data

python scripts/data_process/get_val.py 

3. Training

modify config.py for model path

Path to the models we used:

  • CNN:models/MultiCNNTextBNDeep.py
  • RNN(LSTM):models/LSTMText.py
  • RCNN: models/RCNN.py
  • inception: models/CNNText_inception.py
  • FastText: models/FastText3.py

In most cases, the score could be boosted by finetune. for example:

python2 main.py main --max_epoch=2 --plot_every=100 --env='LSTMText-word-ft' --model='LSTMText'  --zhuge=True --num-workers=4 --batch-size=256 --model-path=None --lr2=5e-5 --lr=5e-5 --decay-every=5000 --type_='word'  --model-path='checkpoints/LSTMText_word_0.409196378421'                       

3.2 train models with data augumentation

Add --augument in the training command.
