🚀 Quick Tour

🈶 w/ pretrained models

Extract semantic feature

set apply_cell_transform=False to extract semantic feature.

import numpy as np
from rannet import RanNet, RanNetWordPieceTokenizer


vocab_path = 'pretrained/vocab.txt'
ckpt_path = 'pretrained/model.ckpt'
config_path = 'pretrained/config.json'
tokenizer = RanNetWordPieceTokenizer(vocab_path, lowercase=True)

rannet, rannet_model = RanNet.load_rannet(
    config_path=config_path,
    checkpoint_path=ckpt_path,
    return_sequences=False,
    apply_cell_transform=False
)
text = 'input text'
tok = tokenizer.encode(text)
vec = rannet_model.predict(np.array([tok.ids]))

For the classification task

from rannet import RanNet, RanNetWordPieceTokenizer


vocab_path = 'pretrained/vocab.txt'
ckpt_path = 'pretrained/model.ckpt'
config_path = 'pretrained/config.json'
tokenizer = RanNetWordPieceTokenizer(vocab_path, lowercase=True)

rannet, rannet_model = RanNet.load_rannet(
    config_path=config_path, checkpoint_path=ckpt_path, return_sequences=False)
output = rannet_model.output  # (B, D)
output = L.Dropout(0.1)(output)
output = L.Dense(2, activation='softmax')(output)
model = keras.models.Model(rannet_model.input, output)
model.summary()

For the sequence task

from rannet import RanNet, RanNetWordPieceTokenizer


vocab_path = 'pretrained/vocab.txt'
ckpt_path = 'pretrained/model.ckpt'
config_path = 'pretrained/config.json'
tokenizer = RanNetWordPieceTokenizer(vocab_path, lowercase=True)

rannet, rannet_model = RanNet.load_rannet(
    config_path=config_path, checkpoint_path=ckpt_path, return_cell=False)
output = rannet_model.output  # (B, L, D)
rannet_model.summary()

🈚 w/o pretrained models

Embed the RAN (a Keras layer) into your network.

from rannet import RAN

ran = RAN(head_num=8,
          head_size=256,
          window_size=256,
          min_window_size=16,
          activation='swish',
          kernel_initializer='glorot_normal',
          apply_lm_mask=False,
          apply_seq2seq_mask=False,
          apply_memory_review=True,
          dropout_rate=0.0,
          cell_initializer_type='zero')
output, cell = ran(X)
