Ingredient-Vectors

"This code is mostly borrowed from https://github.com/inejc/paragraph-vectors/"

A PyTorch implementation of Paragraph Vectors (doc2vec).

All models minimize the Negative Sampling objective as proposed by T. Mikolov et al. [1]. This provides scope for sparse updates (i.e. only vectors of sampled noise words are used in forward and backward passes). In addition to that, batches of training data (with noise sampling) are generated in parallel on a CPU while the model is trained on a GPU.

Caveat emptor! Be warned that paragraph-vectors is in an early-stage development phase. Feedback, comments, suggestions, contributions, etc. are more than welcome.

Installation

1. Install PyTorch (follow the link for instructions).
2. Install the paragraph-vectors library.

git clone https://github.com/inejc/paragraph-vectors.git
cd paragraph-vectors
pip install -e .

Note that installation in a virtual environment is the recommended way.

Usage

1. Put a csv file in the data directory. Each row represents a single document and the first column should always contain the text. Note that a header line is mandatory.

data/example.csv
----------------
text,...
"In the week before their departure to Arrakis, when all the final scurrying about had reached a nearly unbearable frenzy, an old crone came to visit the mother of the boy, Paul.",...
"It was a warm night at Castle Caladan, and the ancient pile of stone that had served the Atreides family as home for twenty-six generations bore that cooled-sweat feeling it acquired before a change in the weather.",...
...

2. Run train.py with selected parameters (models are saved in the models directory).

python train.py start --data_file_name ‘flavordb_ver2.0.csv’ --num_epochs 100 --batch_size 32 --num_noise_words 2 --vec_dim 100 --lr 1e-3 --model_ver dm --context_size 5

3. Export trained paragraph vectors to a csv file (vectors are saved in the data directory).

python export_vectors.py start --data_file_name ‘flavordb_ver2.0.csv’ --model_file_name ‘flavordb_ver2.0_model.dm.sum_contextsize.5_numnoisewords.2_vecdim.100_batchsize.32_lr.0.001000_epoch.71_loss.0.044957_embed.0.pth.ta'

4. Plot

python run.py start --vocab_file D6_ingredient_vocab.pkl  --embed_file “flavordb_ver2.0_model.dm.sum_contextsize.5_numnoisewords.2_vecdim.100_batchsize.32_lr.0.001000_epoch.71_loss.0.044957_embed.0.csv” --embed_type “fdb”

Parameters

• data_file_name: str
  Name of a file in the data directory.
• model_ver: str, one of ('dm', 'dbow'), default='dbow'
  Version of the model as proposed by Q. V. Le et al. [5], Distributed Representations of Sentences and Documents. 'dbow' stands for Distributed Bag Of Words, 'dm' stands for Distributed Memory.
• vec_combine_method: str, one of ('sum', 'concat'), default='sum'
  Method for combining paragraph and word vectors when model_ver='dm'. Currently only the 'sum' operation is implemented.
• context_size: int, default=0
  Half the size of a neighbourhood of target words when model_ver='dm' (i.e. how many words left and right are regarded as context). When model_ver='dm' context_size has to greater than 0, when model_ver='dbow' context_size has to be 0.
• num_noise_words: int
  Number of noise words to sample from the noise distribution.
• vec_dim: int
  Dimensionality of vectors to be learned (for paragraphs and words).
• num_epochs: int
  Number of iterations to train the model (i.e. number of times every example is seen during training).
• batch_size: int
  Number of examples per single gradient update.
• lr: float
  Learning rate of the Adam optimizer.
• save_all: bool, default=False
  Indicates whether a checkpoint is saved after each epoch. If false, only the best performing model is saved.
• generate_plot: bool, default=True
  Indicates whether a diagnostic plot displaying loss value over epochs is generated after each epoch.
• max_generated_batches: int, default=5
  Maximum number of pre-generated batches.
• num_workers: int, default=1
  Number of batch generator jobs to run in parallel. If value is set to -1, total number of machine CPUs is used. Note that order of batches is not guaranteed when num_workers > 1.

Parameters

• data_file_name: str
  Name of a file in the data directory that was used during training.
• model_file_name: str
  Name of a file in the models directory (a model trained on the data_file_name dataset).
• [5] Distributed Representations of Sentences and Documents, Q. V. Le et al.
• [6] Document Embedding with Paragraph Vectors, A. M. Dai et al.
