README.md

Intro.

1. Review transformers both in in theory and in practice.
2. Run several experiments using traditional-chinese corpus

Dataset

I crawl some articles from PTT-Gossiping here

• data directory restore data and transformer.pkl is a example of trained model
• pytorch directory lists useful models that I modified from Pytorch
• pytorch_example.py list an example of training a transformer based model

Run

python ../examples/pytorch_example.py \
--epoch 1 \
--encoder_layer 3 \
--word_dimension 256 \
--hidden_dimension 300 \
--attention_head 8 \
--dropout 0.2 \
--learning_rate 0.05 \
--data /Users/admin/Practice/transformer-tutorial/data/Gossiping-38650-39150.json \
--model /Users/admin/Practice/transformer-tutorial/data/transformer.pkl

TensorboardX is also supported

python ../examples/pytorch_example.py \
