https://github.com/dmlc/gluon-nlp - v0.8.2: Bug Fixes

This release covers a few fixes for the bugs reported: - Fixed argument passing in the bert/embedding.py script - Updated SimVerb3500 dataset URL to the aclweb hosted version - Removed multi-processing in DataLoader from in bert/pretraining_utils.py which potentially causes crash when horovod mpi is used for training - Before MXNet 1.6.0, Gluon Trainer assumes deterministic parameter creation order for distributed traiing. The attention cell for BERT and transformer has a non-deterministic parameter creation order in v0.8.1 and v0.8.0, which will cause divergence during distributed training. It is now fixed.

Note that since v0.8.2, the default branch of gluon-nlp github will be switched to the latest stable branch, instead of the master branch under development.

BERT

  • a BERT BASE model pre-trained on a large corpus including OpenWebText Corpus, BooksCorpus, and English Wikipedia, which has comparable performance with the BERT large model from Google. The test score on GLUE Benchmark is reported below. Also improved usability of the BERT pre-training script: on-the-fly training data generation, sentencepiece, horovod, etc. (#799, #687, #806, #669, #665).

Features

GluonNLP provides its users with easy access to

  • State of the art models
  • Pre-trained word embeddings
  • Many public datasets for different tasks
  • Examples friendly to users that are new to the task
  • Reproducible training scripts

Models

Gluon NLP Toolkit supplies model definitions for common NLP tasks. These can be adapted for the users requirements or taken as blueprint for new developments. All of these are implemented using Gluon Blocks allowing easy reuse as plug-and-play neural network building blocks.

Data

Gluon NLP Toolkit provides tools for building efficient data pipelines for NLP tasks by defining a Dataset class interface and utilities for transforming them. Several datasets are included by default and will be automatically downloaded when used.

  • Language modeling with WikiText
    • WikiText is a popular language modeling dataset from Salesforce. It is a collection of over 100 million tokens extracted from the set of verified Good and Featured articles on Wikipedia.
  • Sentiment Analysis with IMDB
    • IMDB: IMDB is a popular dataset for binary sentiment classification. It provides a set of 25,000 highly polar movie reviews for training, 25,000 for testing, and additional unlabeled data.
  • CoNLL datasets
    • These datasets include data for the shared tasks, such as part-of-speech (POS) tagging, chunking, named entity recognition (NER), semantic role labeling (SRL), etc.
    • We provide built in support for CoNLL 2000 – 2002, 2004, as well as the Universal Dependencies dataset which is used in the 2017 and 2018 competitions.
  • Word embedding evaluation datasets
    • There are a number of commonly used datasets for intrinsic evaluation for word embeddings. We provide commonly used datasets for the similarity and analogy evaluation tasks.

Gluon NLP further ships with common datasets data transformation functions, dataset samplers to determine how to iterate through datasets as well as functions to generate data batches.

A complete and up-to-date list of supplied datasets and utilities is available in the API documentation.

Other features

Examples and scripts

The Gluon NLP toolkit also provides scripts that use the functionality of the toolkit for various tasks

  • Word Embedding Evaluation
  • Beam Search Generator
