# A Decomposable Attention Model for Natural Language Inference
|
||
|
|
||
|
This directory contains an implementation of entailment prediction model described
|
||
|
by Parikh et al. (2016). The model is notable for its competitive performance
|
||
|
with very few parameters.
|
||
|
|
||
|
https://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.01933.pdf
|
||
|
|
||
|
The model is implemented using Keras and spaCy. Keras is used to build and
|
||
|
train the network, while spaCy is used to load the GloVe vectors, perform the
|
||
|
feature extraction, and help you apply the model at run-time. The following
|
||
|
demo code shows how the entailment model can be used at runtime, once the hook is
|
||
|
installed to customise the `.similarity()` method of spaCy's `Doc` and `Span`
|
||
|
objects:
|
||
|
|
||
|
def demo(model_dir):
|
||
|
nlp = spacy.load('en', path=model_dir,
|
||
|
create_pipeline=create_similarity_pipeline)
|
||
|
doc1 = nlp(u'Worst fries ever! Greasy and horrible...')
|
||
|
doc2 = nlp(u'The milkshakes are good. The fries are bad.')
|
||
|
print(doc1.similarity(doc2))
|
||
|
sent1a, sent1b = doc1.sents
|
||
|
print(sent1a.similarity(sent1b))
|
||
|
print(sent1a.similarity(doc2))
|
||
|
print(sent1b.similarity(doc2))
|
||
|
|
||
|
I'm working on a blog post to explain Parikh et al.'s model in more detail.
|
||
|
I think it is a very interesting example of the attention mechanism, which
|
||
|
I didn't understand very well before working through this paper.
|
||
|
|
||
|
# How to run the example
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Install spaCy and its English models (about 1GB of data):
|
||
|
|
||
|
pip install spacy
|
||
|
python -m spacy.en.download
|
||
|
|
||
|
This will give you the spaCy's tokenization, tagging, NER and parsing models,
|
||
|
as well as the GloVe word vectors.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Install Keras
|
||
|
|
||
|
pip install keras
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Get Keras working with your GPU
|
||
|
|
||
|
You're mostly on your own here. My only advice is, if you're setting up on AWS,
|
||
|
try using the AMI published by NVidia. With the image, getting everything set
|
||
|
up wasn't *too* painful.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. Test the Keras model:
|
||
|
|
||
|
py.test nli/keras_decomposable_attention.py
|
||
|
|
||
|
This should tell you that two tests passed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
5. Download the Stanford Natural Language Inference data
|
||
|
|
||
|
http://nlp.stanford.edu/projects/snli/
|
||
|
|
||
|
6. Train the model:
|
||
|
|
||
|
python nli/ train <your_model_dir> <train_directory> <dev_directory>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Training takes about 300 epochs for full accuracy, and I haven't rerun the full
|
||
|
experiment since refactoring things to publish this example --- please let me
|
||
|
know if I've broken something.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You should get to at least 85% on the development data.
|
||
|
|
||
|
7. Evaluate the model (optional):
|
||
|
|
||
|
python nli/ evaluate <your_model_dir> <dev_directory>
|
||
|
|
||
|
8. Run the demo (optional):
|
||
|
|
||
|
python nli/ demo <your_model_dir>
