Word2Vec in PyTorch

Implementation of the first paper on word2vec - Efficient Estimation of Word Representations in Vector Space. For detailed explanation of the code here, check my post - Word2vec with PyTorch: Reproducing Original Paper.

Word2Vec Overview

There 2 model architectures desctibed in the paper:

  • Continuous Bag-of-Words Model (CBOW), that predicts word based on its context;
  • Continuous Skip-gram Model (Skip-Gram), that predicts context for a word.

Difference with the original paper:

  • Trained on WikiText-2 and WikiText103 inxtead of Google News corpus.
  • Context for both models is represented as 4 history and 4 future words.
  • For CBOW model averaging for context word embeddings used instead of summation.
  • For Skip-Gram model all context words are sampled with the same probability.
  • Plain Softmax was used instead of Hierarchical Softmax. No Huffman tree used either.
  • Adam optimizer was used instead of Adagrad.
  • Trained for 5 epochs.
  • Regularization applied: embedding vector norms are restricted to 1.

└── weights
  • utils/dataloader.py - data loader for WikiText-2 and WikiText103 datasets

  • utils/model.py - model architectures

  • utils/trainer.py - class for model training and evaluation

  • train.py - script for training

  • config.yaml - file with training parameters

  • weights/ - folder where expriments artifacts are stored

  • notebooks/Inference.ipynb - demo of how embeddings are used

Usage

python3 train.py --config config.yaml

Before running the command, change the training parameters in the config.yaml, most important:

  • model_name ("skipgram", "cbow")
  • dataset ("WikiText2", "WikiText103")
  • model_dir (directory to store experiment artifacts, should start with "weights/")
