| Dense, real valued vectors representing distributional similarity
|
|
| information are now a cornerstone of practical NLP. The most common way
|
|
| to train these vectors is the #[+a("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word2vec") word2vec]
|
|
| family of algorithms. The default
|
|
| #[+a("/docs/usage/models#available") English model] installs
|
|
| 300-dimensional vectors trained on the Common Crawl
|
|
| corpus using the #[+a("http://nlp.stanford.edu/projects/glove/") GloVe]
|
|
| algorithm. The GloVe common crawl vectors have become a de facto
|
|
| standard for practical NLP.

+aside("Tip: Training a word2vec model")

|
| If you need to train a word2vec model, we recommend the implementation in
|
|
| the Python library #[+a("https://radimrehurek.com/gensim/") Gensim].

| By default, #[+api("token#vector") #[code Token.vector]] returns the
|
|
| vector for its underlying #[+api("lexeme") #[code Lexeme]], while
|
|
| #[+api("doc#vector") #[code Doc.vector]] and
|
|
| #[+api("span#vector") #[code Span.vector]] return an average of the
|
|
| vectors of their tokens.

|
|
| You can customize these
|
|
| behaviours by modifying the #[code doc.user_hooks],
|
|
| #[code doc.user_span_hooks] and #[code doc.user_token_hooks]
|
|
| dictionaries.

|
|
| You can load new word vectors from a file-like buffer using the
|
|
| #[code vocab.load_vectors()] method. The file should be a
|
|
| whitespace-delimited text file, where the word is in the first column,
|
|
| and subsequent columns provide the vector data. For faster loading, you
|
|
| can use the #[code vocab.vectors_from_bin_loc()] method, which accepts a
|
|
| path to a binary file written by #[code vocab.dump_vectors()].
|
|
|
|
+code("Example").
|

# TODO
|
|
|
|
p
|
|
| You can also load vectors from memory by writing to the
|
|
| #[+api("lexeme#vector") #[code Lexeme.vector]] property. If the vectors
|
|
| you are writing are of different dimensionality
|
|
| from the ones currently loaded, you should first call
|
|
| #[code vocab.resize_vectors(new_size)].
