py-torchtext - TorchText 0.15.2 Release

This is a minor release, which is compatible with PyTorch 2.0.1. There are no new features added.

- Python
Published by atalman almost 3 years ago

py-torchtext - v0.15.1

Highlights

In this release, we add a new model architecture along with pre-trained weights, increase flexibility in our tokenizers, and improve the overall stability of the library.

Added T5 & Flan-T5 model architecture with pre-trained weights
Added DistilRoBERTa
Added tutorial showing T5 in action
Added prototype GenerationUtils

Models

Torchtext expanded its models to include both T5, Flan-T5 and DistilRoBERTa along with the corresponding pre-trained model weights. These additions represent both the smallest and largest models available in Torchtext to date as well as the first encoder/decoder model with T5. As usual, all models are Torchscriptable.

Utils

Since TorchText now has encoder/decoder models available, we prototyped a GenerationUtils for generic decoding capabilities for encoder/decoder or decoder only models.

py-torchtext - TorchText 0.14.1 Release

This is a minor release, which is compatible with PyTorch 1.13.1. There are no new features added.

- Python
Published by atalman about 3 years ago

py-torchtext - v0.14.0

Highlights

In this release, we enriched our library with additional datasets and tokenizers while making improvements to our existing build system, documentation, and components.

Added CNN-DM dataset
Added support for RegexTokenizer
Added TorchArrow based examples for training RoBERTa model on SST2 classification dataset

Datasets

We increased the number of datasets in TorchText from 30 to 31 by adding the CNN-DM (paper) dataset. The datasets supported by TorchText use datapipes from the TorchData project, which is still in Beta status. This means that the datapipes API is subject to change without deprecation cycles. In particular, we expect a lot of the current idioms to change with the eventual release of DataLoaderV2 from torchdata. For more details, refer to https://pytorch.org/text/stable/datasets.html

Tokenizers

TorchText has extended support for TorchScriptable tokenizers by adding a RegexTokenizer that enables splitting based on regular expressions. TorchScriptabilty support would allow users to embed the Regex Tokenizer natively in C++ without needing a Python runtime. As TorchText now supports the CMake build system to natively link TorchText binaries with application code, users can easily integrate Regex tokenizers for deployment needs.

New Features

Published by atalman over 3 years ago

py-torchtext - v0.13.0

Highlights

In this release, we enriched our library with additional datasets and tokenizers while making improvements to our existing build system, documentation, and components.

Added all 9 GLUE benchmark’s datasets (#1710): CoLA, MRPC, QQP, STS-B, SST-2, MNLI, QNLI, RTE, WNLI
Added support for BERTTokenizer
Created native C++ binaries using a CMake based build system (#1644)

Datasets

We increased the number of datasets in TorchText from 22 to 30 by adding the remaining 8 datasets from the GLUE benchmark (SST-2 was already supported). The complete list of GLUE datasets is as follows: * CoLA (paper): Single sentence binary classification acceptability task * SST-2 (paper): Single sentence binary classification sentiment task * MRPC (paper): Dual sentence binary classification paraphrase task * QQP: Dual sentence binary classification paraphrase task * STS-B (paper): Single sentence to float regression sentence similarity task * MNLI (paper): Sentence ternary classification NLI task * QNLI (paper): Sentence binary classification QA and NLI tasks * RTE (paper): Dual sentence binary classification NLI task * WNLI (paper): Dual sentence binary classification coreference and NLI tasks

The datasets supported by TorchText use datapipes from the TorchData project, which is still in Beta status. This means that the datapipes API is subject to change without deprecation cycles. In particular, we expect a lot of the current idioms to change with the eventual release of DataLoaderV2 from torchdata. For more details, refer to https://pytorch.org/text/stable/datasets.html

Tokenizers

TorchText has extended support for TorchScriptable tokenizers by adding the WordPiece tokenizer used in BERT. It is one of the most commonly used algorithms for splitting input text into sub-words units and was introduced in Japanese and Korean Voice Search (Schuster et al., 2012).

TorchScriptabilty support would allow users to embed the BERT text-preprocessing natively in C++ without needing a Python runtime. As TorchText now supports the CMake build system to natively link TorchText binaries with application code, users can easily integrate BERT tokenizers for deployment needs.

For usage details, please refer to the corresponding documentation.

CMake Build System

TorchText has migrated its build system for C++ extension and third party libraries to use CMake rather than PyTorch’s CppExtension module. This allows end-users to integrate TorchText C++ binaries in their applications without having a dependency on libpython thus allowing them to use TorchText operators in a non-Python environment.

Refer to the GitHub issue for more details.

Backward Incompatible Changes

The RobertaModelBundle introduced in 0.12 release, which gets pre-trained RoBERTa/XLM-R models and builds custom models with similar architecture, has been renamed to RobertaBundle (#1653).

The default caching location (cache_dir) has been changed from os.path.expanduser("~/.TorchText/cache") to os.path.expanduser("~/.cache/torch/text"). Furthermore the default root directory of datasets is cache_dir/datasets (#1740). Users can now control default cache location via the TORCH_HOME environment variable (#1741)

py-torchtext - v0.12.0

Highlights

In this release, we have revamped the library to provide a more comprehensive experience for users to do NLP modeling using TorchText and PyTorch. * Migrated datasets to build on top of TorchData DataPipes * Added support RoBERTa and XLM-RoBERTa pre-trained models * Added support for Scriptable tokenizers * Added support for composable transforms and functionals

Datasets

TorchText has modernized its datasets by migrating from older-style Iterable Datasets to TorchData’s DataPipes. TorchData is a library that provides modular/composable primitives, allowing users to load and transform data in performant data pipelines. These DataPipes work out-of-the-box with PyTorch DataLoader and would enable new functionalities like auto-sharding. Users can now easily do data manipulation and pre-processing using user-defined functions and transformations in a functional style programming. Datasets backed by DataPipes also enable standard flow-control like batching, collation, shuffling and bucketizing. Collectively, DataPipes provides a comprehensive experience for data preprocessing and tensorization needs in a pythonic and flexible way for model training.

```python from functools import partial import torchtext.functional as F import torchtext.transforms as T from torch.hub import loadstatedictfromurl from torch.utils.data import DataLoader from torchtext.datasets import SST2

Tokenizer to split input text into tokens

encoderjsonpath = "https://download.pytorch.org/models/text/gpt2bpeencoder.json" vocabbpepath = "https://download.pytorch.org/models/text/gpt2bpevocab.bpe" tokenizer = T.GPT2BPETokenizer(encoderjsonpath, vocabbpepath)

vocabulary converting tokens to IDs

vocabpath = "https://download.pytorch.org/models/text/roberta.vocab.pt" vocab = T.VocabTransform(loadstatedictfromurl(vocabpath))

Add BOS token to the beginning of sentence

add_bos = T.AddToken(token=0, begin=True)

Add EOS token to the end of sentence

add_eos = T.AddToken(token=2, begin=False)

Create SST2 dataset datapipe and apply pre-processing

batchsize = 32 traindp = SST2(split="train") traindp = traindp.batch(batchsize).rows2columnar(["text", "label"]) traindp = traindp.map(tokenizer, inputcol="text", outputcol="tokens") traindp = traindp.map(partial(F.truncate, maxseqlen=254), inputcol="tokens") traindp = traindp.map(vocab, inputcol="tokens") traindp = traindp.map(addbos, inputcol="tokens") traindp = traindp.map(addeos, inputcol="tokens") traindp = traindp.map(partial(F.totensor, paddingvalue=1), inputcol="tokens") traindp = traindp.map(F.totensor, inputcol="label")

create DataLoader

dl = DataLoader(traindp, batchsize=None) batch = next(iter(dl)) model_input = batch["tokens"] target = batch["label"] ``` TorchData is required in order to use these datasets. Please install following instructions at https://github.com/pytorch/data

Models

We have added support for pre-trained RoBERTa and XLM-R models. The models are torchscriptable and hence can be employed for production use-cases. The modeling APIs let users attach custom task-specific heads with pre-trained encoders. The API also comes equipped with data pre-processing transforms to match the pre-trained weights and model configuration.

```python import torch, torchtext from torchtext.functional import totensor xlmrbase = torchtext.models.XLMRBASEENCODER model = xlmrbase.getmodel() transform = xlmrbase.transform() inputbatch = ["Hello world", "How are you!"] modelinput = totensor(transform(inputbatch), paddingvalue=1) output = model(model_input) output.shape torch.Size([2, 6, 768])

add classification head

import torch.nn as nn class ClassificationHead(nn.Module): def init(self, inputdim, numclasses): super().init() self.outputlayer = nn.Linear(inputdim, num_classes)

def forward(self, features):
    #get features from cls token
    x = features[:, 0, :]
    return self.output_layer(x)

binaryclassifier = xlmrbase.getmodel(head=ClassificationHead(inputdim=768, numclasses=2)) output = binaryclassifier(model_input) output.shape torch.Size([2, 2]) ```

Transforms and tokenizers

We have revamped our transforms to provide composable building blocks to do text pre-processing. They support both batched and non-batched inputs. Furthermore, we have added support for a number of commonly used tokenizers including SentencePiece, GPT-2 BPE and CLIP.

```python import torchtext.transforms as T from torch.hub import loadstatedictfromurl

paddingidx = 1 bosidx = 0 eosidx = 2 maxseqlen = 256 xlmrvocabpath = r"https://download.pytorch.org/models/text/xlmr.vocab.pt" xlmrspmmodelpath = r"https://download.pytorch.org/models/text/xlmr.sentencepiece.bpe.model"

texttransform = T.Sequential( T.SentencePieceTokenizer(xlmrspmmodelpath), T.VocabTransform(loadstatedictfromurl(xlmrvocabpath)), T.Truncate(maxseqlen - 2), T.AddToken(token=bosidx, begin=True), T.AddToken(token=eosidx, begin=False), )

text_transform([“Hello World”, “How are you”])

```

Tutorial

We have added an end-2-end tutorial to perform SST-2 binary text classification with pre-trained XLM-R base architecture and demonstrates the usage of new datasets, transforms and models.

Backward Incompatible changes

We have removed the legacy folder in this release which provided access to legacy datasets and abstractions. For additional information, please refer to the corresponding github issue (#1422) and PR (#1437)

py-torchtext - torchtext 0.10.0 Release Notes

Highlights

In this release, we introduce a new Vocab module that replaces the current Vocab class. The new Vocab provides common functional APIs for NLP workflows. This module is backed by an efficient C++ implementation that reduces look-up time by up-to ~85% for batch look-up (refer to summary of #1248 and #1290 for further information on benchmarks), and provides support for TorchScript. We provide accompanying factory functions that can be used to build the Vocab object either through a python ordered dictionary or an Iterator that yields lists of tokens.

creating Vocab from text file

```python import io from torchtext.vocab import buildvocabfrom_iterator

generator that yield list of tokens

def yieldtokens(filepath): with io.open(file_path, encoding = 'utf-8') as f: for line in f: yield line.strip().split()

get Vocab object

vocabobj = buildvocabfromiterator(yieldtokens(filepath), specials=[""]) ```

creating Vocab through ordered dict

python from torchtext.vocab import vocab from collections import Counter, OrderedDict counter = Counter(["a", "a", "b", "b", "b"]) sorted_by_freq_tuples = sorted(counter.items(), key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True) ordered_dict = OrderedDict(sorted_by_freq_tuples) vocab_obj = vocab(ordered_dict)

common API usage

```python

look-up index

vocab_obj["a"]

batch look-up indices

vocabobj.looupindices(["a","b"])

support forward API of PyTorch nn Modules

vocab_obj(["a","b"])

batch look-up tokens

vocabobj.lookuptokens([0,1])

set default index to return when token not found

vocabobj.setdefaultindex(0) vocabobj["outofvocabulary"] #prints 0 ```

Backward Incompatible changes

We have retired the old Vocab class into the legacy folder (#1289) . Users relying on this class should be able to access it from torchtext.legacy. The Vocab module that replaces this class is not backward compatible. The most notable difference is that the Vectors object is not an attribute of new Vocab object. We recommend users to use the buildvocabfrom_iterator factory function to construct the new Vocab module that provides similar initialization capabilities as the retired Vocab class.

```python

retired Vocab class

from torchtext.legacy.vocab import Vocab as retiredvocab from collections import Counter tokenslist = ["a", "a", "b", "b", "b"] counter = Counter(tokenslist) vocabobj = retiredvocab(counter, specials=["",""], specialsfirst=True)

new Vocab Module

from torchtext.vocab import buildvocabfromiterator vocabobj = buildvocabfromiterator([tokenslist], specials=["",""], specials_first=True) ```

Removed legacy batch from torchtext.data package (#1307) that was kept around for backward compatibility reasons. Users can still access batch from torchtext.data.legacy package.

New Features

Introduced functional to convert Iterable-style to map-style datasets (#1299)

```python from torchtext.datasets import IMDB from torchtext.data import tomapstyledataset trainiter = IMDB(split='train')

convert iterator to map-style dataset

traindataset = tomapstyledataset(train_iter) ```

Introduced functional to filter raw wikipedia XML dumps (#1292)

```python from torchtext.data.functional import filterwikipediaxml from torchtext.datasets import EnWik9 data_iter = EnWik9(split='train')

filter data according to https://github.com/facebookresearch/fastText/blob/master/wikifil.pl

filterdataiter = filterwikipediaxml(data_iter) ```

Introduced Multi30k dataset (#1306 (https://github.com/pytorch/text/pull/1306))

```python

Added datasets for http://www.statmt.org/wmt16/multimodal-task.html#task1

from torchtext.datasets import Multi30k traindata, validdata, testdata = Multi30k() next(traindata)

prints following

('Zwei junge weiße Männer sind im Freien in der Nähe vieler Büsche.\n',

'Two young, White males are outside near many bushes.\n')

```

Introduced new Vocab module and associated factory functions (#1289, #1297, #1302, #1304, #1308, #1309, #1310)

py-torchtext - Torchtext 0.9.0 release note

Highlights

In this release, we’re updating torchtext’s datasets to be compatible with the PyTorch DataLoader, and deprecating torchtext’s own DataLoading abstractions. We have published a full review of the legacy code and the new datasets in pytorch/text #664. These new datasets are simple string-by-string iterators over the data, rather than the previously custom set of abstractions such as Field. The legacy Datasets and abstractions have been moved into a new legacy folder to ease the migration, and will remain there for two more releases. For guidance about migrating from the legacy abstractions to use modern PyTorch data utilities, please refer to our migration guide (link).

The following raw text datasets are available as the replacement of the legacy datasets. Those datasets are iterators which yield the raw text data line-by-line. To apply those datasets in the NLP workflows, please refer to the end-to-end tutorial for the text classification task (link). - Language modeling: WikiText2, WikiText103, PennTreebank, EnWik9 - Text classification: AG_NEWS, SogouNews, DBpedia, YelpReviewPolarity, YelpReviewFull, YahooAnswers, AmazonReviewPolarity, AmazonReviewFull, IMDB - Sequence tagging: UDPOS, CoNLL2000Chunking - Translation: IWSLT2016, IWSLT2017 - Question answer: SQuAD1, SQuAD2

We add Python 3.9 support in this release

Backwards Incompatible

The current users of the legacy code will experience BC breakage as we have retired the legacy code (#1172, #1181, #1183). The legacy components are placed in torchtext.legacy.data folder as follows: - torchtext.data.Pipeline -> torchtext.legacy.data.Pipeline - torchtext.data.Batch -> torchtext.legacy.data.Batch - torchtext.data.Example -> torchtext.legacy.data.Example - torchtext.data.Field -> torchtext.legacy.data.Field - torchtext.data.Iterator -> torchtext.legacy.data.Iterator - torchtext.data.Dataset -> torchtext.legacy.data.Dataset

This means, all features are still available, but within torchtext.legacy instead of torchtext.

py-torchtext - Torchtext 0.8.0 release notes

This is a relatively light release while we are working on revamping the library. According to PyTorch feature classification changes, the new building blocks and datasets in the experimental folder are defined as Prototype and available in the nightly release only. Once the prototype building blocks are matured enough, we will release them together with all the relevant commits in a beta release. At the same time, users are encouraged to take a look at those building blocks and give us feedback. An easy way to send your feedback is to open an issue in pytorch/text repo or comment in Issue #664. For details regarding the revamp execution, see Issue #985.

The nightly packages are accessible via Pip and Conda for Windows, Mac, and Linux. For example, Linux users can install the nightly wheels with the following command.

pip install --pre torch torchtext -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/cpu/torch_nightly.html

For more detail instructions, please refer to Install PyTorch. It should be noted that the new building blocks are still under development, and the APIs have not been solidified.

The stable release branch here includes a few feature improvements and documentation updates. Compiled against the PyTorch 1.7.0 release, the stable release packages are available via Pip and Conda for Windows, Linux, and Mac.

py-torchtext - 0.7.0: a new dataset abstraction for data processing

Highlights

With the continued progress of PyTorch, some code in torchtext grew out of date with the SOTA PyTorch modules (for example torch.utils.data.DataLoader, torchscript). In 0.7.0 release, we’re taking big steps toward modernizing torchtext, and adding warning messages to these legacy components which will be retired in the October 0.8.0 release. We’re also introducing a host of new features, including:

A generalized MultiheadAttentionContainer for flexible attention behavior
Torchscript support for SentencePiece models
An end-to-end BERT example pipeline, including pertained weights and a question answering fine-tuning example
The SQuAD1 and SQuAD2 question answering datasets
Windows support

Legacy code and issues

For a period of time (ending around June of 2019), torchtext lacked active maintenance and grew out of date with the present SOTA research and PyTorch features. We’ve committed to bringing the library fully up to date, and identified a few core issues:

Several components and functionals were unclear and difficult to adopt. For example, the Field class coupled tokenization, vocabularies, splitting, batching and sampling, padding, and numericalization all together, and was opaque and confusing to users. We determined that these components should be divided into separate orthogonal building blocks. For example, it was difficult to use HuggingFace's tokenizers with the Field class (issue #609). Modular pipeline components would allow a third party tokenizer to be swapped into the pipeline easily.
torchtext’s datasets were incompatible with DataLoader and Sampler in torch.utils.data, or even duplicated that code (e.g. torchtext.data.Iterator, torchtext.data.Batch). Basic inconsistencies confused users. For example, many struggled to fix the data order while using Iterator (issue #828), whereas with DataLoader, users can simply set shuffle=False to fix the data order.

We’ve addressed these issues in this release, and several legacy components are now ready to be retired:

torchtext.data.Batch (link)
torchtext.data.Field (link)
torchtext.data.Iterator (link)
torchtext.data.Example (link)

In 0.7.0 release, we add deprecation warnings, and finally will retire them to the torchtext.legacy directory in 0.8.0 release on October.

New dataset abstraction

Since the 0.4.0 release, we’ve been working on a new common interface for the torchtext datasets (inheriting from torch.utils.data.Dataset) to address the issues above, and completed it for this release. For standard usage, we’ve created a map-style dataset which materializes the text iterator. A default dataset processing pipeline, including tokenizer and vocabulary, is added to the map-style datasets to support one-command data loading.

from torchtext.experimental.datasets import AG_NEWS train, test = AG_NEWS(ngrams=3)

For those who want more flexibility, the raw text is still available as a torch.utils.data.IterableDataset by simply inserting .raw into the module path as follows.

train, test = torchtext.experimental.datasets.raw.AG_NEWS()

Instead of maintaining Batch and Iterator func in torchtext, the new dataset abstraction is fully compatible with torch.utils.data.DataLoader like below. collate_fn is used to process the data batch generated from DataLoader.

from torch.utils.data import DataLoader def collate_fn(batch): texts, labels = [], [] for label, txt in batch: texts.append(txt) labels.append(label) return texts, labels dataloader = DataLoader(train, batch_size=8, collate_fn=collate_fn) for idx, (texts, labels) in enumerate(dataloader): print(idx, texts, labels)

With the new datasets, we worked together with the OSS community to re-write the legacy datasets in torchtext. Here is a brief summary of the progress:

Word language modeling datasets (WikiText2, WikiText103, PennTreeBank) #661, #774
Text classification datasets (AG_NEWS, SogouNews, DBpedia, YelpReviewPolarity, YelpReviewFull, YahooAnswers, AmazonReviewPolarity, AmazonReviewFull) #701, #775, #776
Sentiment analysis dataset (IMDb) #651
Translation datasets (Multi30k, IWSLT, WMT14) #751, #821, #851
Question-answer datasets (SQuAD1, SQuAD2) #773
Sequence tagging datasets (UDPOS, CoNLL2000Chunking) #805

Those new datasets stay in torchtext.experimental.datasets directory. The old version of the datasets are still available in torchtext.datasets and the new datasets are opt-in. In 0.8.0 release, the old datasets will be moved to torchtext.legacy directory.

To learn how to apply the new dataset abstraction with DataLoader and SOTA PyTorch compatibilities (like Distributed Data Parallel), we created a full example to use the new torchtext datasets (WikiText103, SQuAD1, etc) to train a BERT model. A pretrained BERT model is generated from masked language task and next sentence task. Then, the model is fine-tuned for the question-answer task. The example is available in torchtext repo (here).

py-torchtext - 0.5.0: A new abstraction for torchtext dataset

Highlights

We simplify the current torchtext dataset library by leveraging existing utils (DataLoader, Sampler) in PyTorch core library. Separate tokenizer, vocabulary, and data processing functionals. Users will feel empowered to build data processing pipelines.

[Experimental] New abstraction for torchtext dataset

torchtext v0.5.0 release officially introduces a new abstraction for the datasets. Based on the feedback from users, the new abstraction will solve several issues existing in torchtext, including * Several components and functionals are unclear and difficult to adopt. For example, Field class couples tokenizer, vocabulary, split, batching and sampling, padding, and numericalization together. The current Field class works like a "black box", and users are confused about what's going on within the class. Instead, those components should be divided into several basic building blocks. This is more consistent with PyTorch core library where users build models and pipelines with orthogonal components. * Incompatible with PyTorch core library, like DataLoader and Sampler in torch.utils.data. Some custom modules/functions in torchtext (e.g. Iterator, Batch, splits) should be replaced by the corresponding modules in torch.utils.data.

We have re-written several datasets in torchtext.experimental.datasets, which are using the new abstraction. The old version of the datasets are still available in torchtext.datasets, and the new datasets are opt-in. We expect to replace the legacy datasets with the experimental ones in the future. Torchtext users are welcome to send feedback to issue [#664] * Re-write Sentiment Analysis dataset [#651] - IMDB * Re-write Language Modeling datasets [#624, #661], including - WikiText2 - WikiText103 - PennTreebank

SentencePiece binding

The SentencePiece binding provides an effective way to solve the open vocabulary problems in NLP tasks. The binding now supports two segmentation algorithms, byte-pair-encoding (BPE) and unigram language model. It trains a subword models directly from raw text data, which are used to tokenize corpus and convert them into PyTorch tensors [#597]

Backward compatibility

Last release with the support of Python 2
Change the default ngrams value to 1 in text classification datasets [#663]
Temporarily remove a unit test test_get_tokenizer_moses from CI tests. Need to push it back after issue related to moses tokenizer is resolved. [#588]

We would like to thank the open source community, who continues to send pull requests for new features and bug-fixes.

py-torchtext - 0.2.1: Bugfixes and More Datasets

This is a minor release; we have not included any breaking API changes but there are some new features that don't break existing APIs.

We have always intended to support lazy datasets (specifically, those implemented as Python generators) but this version includes a bugfix that makes that support more useful. See a demo of it in action here.

Datasets:

Added support for sequence tagging (e.g., NER/POS/chunking) datasets and wrapped the Universal Dependencies POS-tagged corpus (#157, thanks @sivareddyg!)

Features:

Added pad_first keyword argument to Field constructors, allowing left-padding in addition to right-padding (#161, thanks @GregorySenay!)
Support loading word vectors from local folder (#168, thanks @ahhegazy!)
Support using list (character tokenization) in ReversibleField (#188)
Added hooks for Sphinx/RTD documentation (#179, thanks @keon and @EntilZha, whose preliminary version is available at torch-text.readthedocs.io)
Added support for torchtext.__version__ (#179, thanks @keon!)

Bugfixes:

Fixed deprecated word vector usage in WT2 dataset (#166, thanks @keon!)
Fixed bug in word vector loading (#168, thanks @ahhegazy!)
Fixed bug in word vector aliases (#191, thanks @ryanleary!)
Fixed side effects of building a vocabulary (#193 + #181, thanks @donglixp!)
Fixed arithmetic mistake in language modeling dataset length calculation (#182, thanks @jihunchoi!)
Avoid materializing an otherwise-lazy dataset when using filter_pred (#194)
Fixed bug in raw float fields (#159)
Avoid providing a misleading len when using batch_size_fn (#192)

py-torchtext - Version 0.2: Reversible tokenization, new word vector API, and more datasets

Breaking changes:

By default, examples are now sorted within a batch by decreasing sequence length (#95, #139). This is required for use of PyTorch PackedSequences, and it can be flexibly overridden with a Dataset constructor flag.
The unknown token is now included as part of specials and can be overridden or removed in the Field constructor (part of #107).

New features:

New word vector API with classes for GloVe and FastText; string descriptors are still accepted for backwards compatibility (#94, #102, #115, #120, thanks @nelson-liu and @bmccann!)
Reversible tokenization (#107). Introduces a new Field subclass, ReversibleField, with a .reverse method that detokenizes. All implementations of ReversibleField should guarantee that the tokenization+detokenization round-trip is idempotent; torchtext provides wrappers for the revtok tokenizer and subword segmenter that satisfy this property.
Skip header line in CSV/TSV loading (#146)
RawFields that represent any data type without processing (#147, thanks @kylegao91!)

New datasets:

TREC (#92, thanks @bmccann!)
IMDb (#93, thanks @bmccann!)
Multi30k (#116, thanks @bmccann!)
IWSLT (#126, #128, thanks @bmccann!)
WMT14 (#138)

Bugfixes:

Fix pretrained word vector loading (#99, thanks @matt-peters!)
Fix JSON loader silently ignoring requested columns not present in the file (#105, thanks @nelson-liu!)
Many fixes for Python 2, especially surrounding Unicode (#105, #112, #135, #153 thanks @nelson-liu!)
Fix Pipeline.call behavior (#113, thanks @nelson-liu!)
Fix README example (#134, thanks @czhang99!)
Fix WikiText2 loader (#138)
Fix typo in MT loader (#142, thanks @sivareddyg!)
Fix Example.fromlist behavior on non-strings (#145)
Update test set URL for Multi30k (#149)
Fix SNLI data loader (#150, thanks @sivareddyg!)
Fix language modeling iterator (#151)
Remove transpose as a side effect of Field.reverse (#155)
