* Updates/bugfixes for NER/IOB converters
* Converter formats `ner` and `iob` use autodetect to choose a converter if
possible
* `iob2json` is reverted to handle sentence-per-line data like
`word1|pos1|ent1 word2|pos2|ent2`
* Fix bug in `merge_sentences()` so the second sentence in each batch isn't
skipped
* `conll_ner2json` is made more general so it can handle more formats with
whitespace-separated columns
* Supports all formats where the first column is the token and the final
column is the IOB tag; if present, the second column is the POS tag
* As in CoNLL 2003 NER, blank lines separate sentences, `-DOCSTART- -X- O O`
separates documents
* Add option for segmenting sentences (new flag `-s`)
* Parser-based sentence segmentation with a provided model, otherwise with
sentencizer (new option `-b` to specify model)
* Can group sentences into documents with `n_sents` as long as sentence
segmentation is available
* Only applies automatic segmentation when there are no existing delimiters
in the data
* Provide info about settings applied during conversion with warnings and
suggestions if settings conflict or might not be not optimal.
* Add tests for common formats
* Add '(default)' back to docs for -c auto
* Add document count back to output
* Revert changes to converter output message
* Use explicit tabs in convert CLI test data
* Adjust/add messages for n_sents=1 default
* Add sample NER data to training examples
* Update README
* Add links in docs to example NER data
* Define msg within converters
* Prevent subtok label if not learning tokens
The parser introduces the subtok label to mark tokens that should be
merged during post-processing. Previously this happened even if we did
not have the --learn-tokens flag set. This patch passes the config
through to the parser, to prevent the problem.
* Make merge_subtokens a parser post-process if learn_subtokens
* Fix train script
* Add test for 3830: subtok problem
* Fix handlign of non-subtok in parser training
* Extending debug-data with dependency checks, etc.
* Modify debug-data to load with GoldCorpus to iterate over .json/.jsonl
files within directories
* Add GoldCorpus iterator train_docs_without_preprocessing to load
original train docs without shuffling and projectivizing
* Report number of misaligned tokens
* Add more dependency checks and messages
* Update spacy/cli/debug_data.py
Co-Authored-By: Ines Montani <ines@ines.io>
* Fixed conflict
* Move counts to _compile_gold()
* Move all dependency nonproj/sent/head/cycle counting to
_compile_gold()
* Unclobber previous merges
* Update variable names
* Update more variable names, fix misspelling
* Don't clobber loading error messages
* Only warn about misaligned tokens if present
* Update pretrain to prevent unintended overwriting of weight files for #3859
* Add '--epoch-start' to pretrain docs
* Add mising pretrain arguments to bash example
* Update doc tag for v2.1.5
* Add error to `get_vectors_loss` for unsupported loss function of `pretrain`
* Add missing "--loss-func" argument to pretrain docs. Update pretrain plac annotations to match docs.
* Add missing quotation marks
* Add check for empty input file to CLI pretrain
* Raise error if JSONL is not a dict or contains neither `tokens` nor `text` key
* Skip empty values for correct pretrain keys and log a counter as warning
* Add tests for CLI pretrain core function make_docs.
* Add a short hint for the `tokens` key to the CLI pretrain docs
* Add success message to CLI pretrain
* Update model loading to fix the tests
* Skip empty values and do not create docs out of it
<!--- Provide a general summary of your changes in the title. -->
When using `spacy pretrain`, the model is saved only after every epoch. But each epoch can be very big since `pretrain` is used for language modeling tasks. So I added a `--save-every` option in the CLI to save after every `--save-every` batches.
## Description
<!--- Use this section to describe your changes. If your changes required
testing, include information about the testing environment and the tests you
ran. If your test fixes a bug reported in an issue, don't forget to include the
issue number. If your PR is still a work in progress, that's totally fine – just
include a note to let us know. -->
To test...
Save this file to `sample_sents.jsonl`
```
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
```
Then run `--save-every 2` when pretraining.
```bash
spacy pretrain sample_sents.jsonl en_core_web_md here -nw 1 -bs 1 -i 10 --save-every 2
```
And it should save the model to the `here/` folder after every 2 batches. The models that are saved during an epoch will have a `.temp` appended to the save name.
At the end the training, you should see these files (`ls here/`):
```bash
config.json model2.bin model5.bin model8.bin
log.jsonl model2.temp.bin model5.temp.bin model8.temp.bin
model0.bin model3.bin model6.bin model9.bin
model0.temp.bin model3.temp.bin model6.temp.bin model9.temp.bin
model1.bin model4.bin model7.bin
model1.temp.bin model4.temp.bin model7.temp.bin
```
### Types of change
<!-- What type of change does your PR cover? Is it a bug fix, an enhancement
or new feature, or a change to the documentation? -->
This is a new feature to `spacy pretrain`.
🌵 **Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test this because compiling from source is not working (cythonize error).**
