|
|
|
The text categorizer predicts **categories over a whole document**. It can learn
|
|
one or more labels, and the labels can be mutually exclusive (i.e. one true
|
|
label per document) or non-mutually exclusive (i.e. zero or more labels may be
|
|
true per document). The multi-label setting is controlled by the model instance
|
|
that's provided.
|
|
|
|
## Config and implementation {#config}
|
|
|
|
The default config is defined by the pipeline component factory and describes
|
|
how the component should be configured. You can override its settings via the
|
|
`config` argument on [`nlp.add_pipe`](/api/language#add_pipe) or in your
|
|
[`config.cfg` for training](/usage/training#config). See the
|
|
[model architectures](/api/architectures) documentation for details on the
|
|
architectures and their arguments and hyperparameters.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> from spacy.pipeline.textcat import DEFAULT_TEXTCAT_MODEL
|
|
> config = {
|
|
> "labels": [],
|
|
> "threshold": 0.5,
|
|
> "model": DEFAULT_TEXTCAT_MODEL,
|
|
> }
|
|
> nlp.add_pipe("textcat", config=config)
|
|

|
|
|
|
| Setting | Description |
|
|
| ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `labels` | A list of categories to learn. If empty, the model infers the categories from the data. Defaults to `[]`. ~~Iterable[str]~~ |
|
|
| `threshold` | Cutoff to consider a prediction "positive", relevant when printing accuracy results. ~~float~~ |
|
|
| `positive_label` | The positive label for a binary task with exclusive classes, None otherwise and by default. ~~Optional[str]~~ |
|
|
| `model` | A model instance that predicts scores for each category. Defaults to [TextCatEnsemble](/api/architectures#TextCatEnsemble). ~~Model[List[Doc], List[Floats2d]]~~ |
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
%%GITHUB_SPACY/spacy/pipeline/textcat.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## TextCategorizer.\_\_init\_\_ {#init tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> # Construction via add_pipe with default model
|
|
> textcat = nlp.add_pipe("textcat")
|
|
>
|
|
> # Construction via add_pipe with custom model
|
|
> config = {"model": {"@architectures": "my_textcat"}}
|
|
> parser = nlp.add_pipe("textcat", config=config)
|
|
>
|
|
> # Construction from class
|
|
> from spacy.pipeline import TextCategorizer
|
|
> textcat = TextCategorizer(nlp.vocab, model, labels=[], threshold=0.5, positive_label="POS")
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
Create a new pipeline instance. In your application, you would normally use a
|
|
shortcut for this and instantiate the component using its string name and
|
|
[`nlp.add_pipe`](/api/language#create_pipe).
|
|
|
|
| Name | Description |

|
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

|
|
| _keyword-only_ | |
|
|
| `labels` | The labels to use. ~~Iterable[str]~~ |
|
|
| `threshold` | Cutoff to consider a prediction "positive", relevant when printing accuracy results. ~~float~~ |
|
|
| `positive_label` | The positive label for a binary task with exclusive classes, None otherwise. ~~Optional[str]~~ |
|
|
|
|
## TextCategorizer.\_\_call\_\_ {#call tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Apply the pipe to one document. The document is modified in place, and returned.
|
|
This usually happens under the hood when the `nlp` object is called on a text
|
|
and all pipeline components are applied to the `Doc` in order. Both
|
|
[`__call__`](/api/textcategorizer#call) and [`pipe`](/api/textcategorizer#pipe)
|
|
delegate to the [`predict`](/api/textcategorizer#predict) and
|
|
[`set_annotations`](/api/textcategorizer#set_annotations) methods.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> doc = nlp("This is a sentence.")
|
|
> textcat = nlp.add_pipe("textcat")
|
|
> # This usually happens under the hood
|
|
> processed = textcat(doc)

## TextCategorizer.pipe {#pipe tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Apply the pipe to a stream of documents. This usually happens under the hood
|
|
when the `nlp` object is called on a text and all pipeline components are
|
|
applied to the `Doc` in order. Both [`__call__`](/api/textcategorizer#call) and
|
|
[`pipe`](/api/textcategorizer#pipe) delegate to the
|
|
[`predict`](/api/textcategorizer#predict) and
|
|
[`set_annotations`](/api/textcategorizer#set_annotations) methods.
|
|
|
|

|
|
[`Optimizer`](https://thinc.ai/docs/api-optimizers). `get_examples` should be a
|
|
function that returns an iterable of [`Example`](/api/example) objects. The data
|
|
examples are used to **initialize the model** of the component and can either be
|
|
the full training data or a representative sample. Initialization includes
|
|
validating the network,
|
|
[inferring missing shapes](https://thinc.ai/docs/usage-models#validation) and
|
|
setting up the label scheme based on the data.
