Tranformers-CRF

For training BERT-CRF models with the huggingface Transformers libary

Instalation

    git clone https://bitbucket.org/avisourgente/transformers_crf.git
    cd transformers_crf
    pip install -e .

Train example

Train script is in examples/run_ner.py It follows the api of https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/examples/pytorch/token-classification/run_ner.py New args:

    --learning_rate_ner LEARNING_RATE_NER
                Custom initial learning rate for the CRF and Linear layers on AdamW. (default: None)
    --weight_decay_ner WEIGHT_DECAY_NER
                Custom weight decay for the CRF and Linear layers on AdamW. (default: None)
    --use_crf  
                Will enable to use CRF layer. (default: False)
    --no_constrain_crf
                Set to not to constrain crf outputs to labeling scheme (default: False)
    --break_docs_to_max_length [BREAK_DOCS_TO_MAX_LENGTH]
                Whether to chunck docs into sentences with the max seq length of tokenizer. (default: False)
    --convert_to_iobes [CONVERT_TO_IOBES]
                Convert a IOB2 input to IOBES. (default: False)

  --num_train_epochs 15 \
  --learning_rate 5e-5 \
  --do_train \
  --do_eval \
  --do_predict \
  --evaluation_strategy steps \
  --eval_steps 500 \
  --output_dir /workspace/models/test-transformers-crf \
  --max_seq_length 128 \
  --break_docs_to_max_length \
  --overwrite_output_dir \
  --learning_rate_ner 5e-3 \
  --convert_to_iobes \
  --use_crf

Usage example

    import torch
    from transformers_crf import CRFTokenizer, AutoModelForEmbedderCRFTokenClassification

    model_path = "./model"

    device = torch.device('cpu') 
    tokenizer = CRFTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path)
    model = AutoModelForEmbedderCRFTokenClassification.from_pretrained(model_path).to(device)

    tokens = [["Esse", "é", "um", "exemplo"], ["Esse", "é", "um", "segundo", "exemplo"]]
    batch = tokenizer(tokens, max_length=512).to(device)
    output = model(**batch, reorder=True)
    predicts_id = output.predicts.detach().cpu().numpy()
    preds = [[model.config.id2label[p] for p in pred_seq][:len(token_seq)] for (pred_seq, token_seq) in zip(predicts_id, tokens)]
