Getting alignment/attention during translation in OpenNMT-py - deep-learning

Does anyone know how to get the alignments weights when translating in Opennmt-py? Usually the only output are the resulting sentences and I have tried to find a debugging flag or similar for the attention weights. So far, I have been unsuccessful.

I'm not sure if this is a new feature, since I did not come across this when looking for alignments a few months back, but onmt seems to have added a flag -report_align to output word alignments along with the translation.
https://opennmt.net/OpenNMT-py/FAQ.html#raw-alignments-from-averaging-transformer-attention-heads
Excerpt from opennnmt.net -
Currently, we support producing word alignment while translating for Transformer based models. Using -report_align when calling translate.py will output the inferred alignments in Pharaoh format. Those alignments are computed from an argmax on the average of the attention heads of the second to last decoder layer.

You can get the attention matrices. Note that it is not the same as alignment which is a term from statistical (not neural) machine translation.
There is a thread on github discussing it. Here is a snippet from the discussion. When you get the translations from the mode, the attentions are in the attn field.
import onmt
import onmt.io
import onmt.translate
import onmt.ModelConstructor
from collections import namedtuple
# Load the model.
Opt = namedtuple('Opt', ['model', 'data_type', 'reuse_copy_attn', "gpu"])
opt = Opt("PATH_TO_SAVED_MODEL", "text", False, 0)
fields, model, model_opt = onmt.ModelConstructor.load_test_model(
opt, {"reuse_copy_attn" : False})
# Test data
data = onmt.io.build_dataset(
fields, "text", "PATH_TO_DATA", None, use_filter_pred=False)
data_iter = onmt.io.OrderedIterator(
dataset=data, device=0,
batch_size=1, train=False, sort=False,
sort_within_batch=True, shuffle=False)
# Translator
translator = onmt.translate.Translator(
model, fields, beam_size=5, n_best=1,
global_scorer=None, cuda=True)
builder = onmt.translate.TranslationBuilder(
data, translator.fields, 1, False, None)
batch = next(data_iter)
batch_data = translator.translate_batch(batch, data)
translations = builder.from_batch(batch_data)
translations[0].attn # <--- here are the attentions

dumping list to JSON file creates list within a list [["x", "y","z"]], why?

I want to append multiple list items to a JSON file, but it creates a list within a list, and therefore I cannot acces the list from python. Since the code is overwriting existing data in the JSON file, there should not be any list there. I also tried it by having just an text in the file without brackets. It just creates a list within a list so [["x", "y","z"]] instead of ["x", "y","z"]
import json
filename = 'vocabulary.json'
print("Reading %s" % filename)
try:
with open(filename, "rt") as fp:
data = json.load(fp)
print("Data: %s" % data)#check
except IOError:
print("Could not read file, starting from scratch")
data = []
# Add some data
TEMPORARY_LIST = []
new_word = input("give new word: ")
TEMPORARY_LIST.append(new_word.split())
print(TEMPORARY_LIST)#check
data = TEMPORARY_LIST
print("Overwriting %s" % filename)
with open(filename, "wt") as fp:
json.dump(data, fp)
example and output with appending list with split words:
Reading vocabulary.json
Data: [['my', 'dads', 'house', 'is', 'nice']]
give new word: but my house is nicer
[['but', 'my', 'house', 'is', 'nicer']]
Overwriting vocabulary.json
So, if I understand what you are trying to accomplish correctly, it looks like you are trying to overwrite a list in a JSON file with a new list created from user input. For easiest data manipulation, set up your JSON file in dictionary form:
{
"words": [
"my",
"dad's",
"house",
"is",
"nice"
]
}
You should then set up functions to separate your functionality to make it more manageable:
def load_json(filename):
with open(filename, "r") as f:
return json.load(f)
Now, we can use those functions to load the JSON, access the words list, and overwrite it with the new word.
data = load_json("vocabulary.json")
new_word = input("Give new word: ").split()
data["words"] = new_word
write_json("vocabulary.json", data)
If the user inputs "but my house is nicer", the JSON file will look like this:
{
"words": [
"but",
"my",
"house",
"is",
"nicer"
]
}
Edit
Okay, I have a few suggestions to make before I get into solving the issue. Firstly, it's great that you have delegated much of the functionality of the program over to respective functions. However, using global variables is generally discouraged because it makes things extremely difficult to debug as any of the functions that use that variable could have mutated it by accident. To fix this, use method parameters and pass around the data accordingly. With small programs like this, you can think of the main() method as the point in which all data comes to and from. This means that the main() function will pass data to other functions and receive new or edited data back. One final recommendation, you should only be using all capital letters for variable names if they are going to be constant. For example, PI = 3.14159 is a constant, so it is conventional to make "pi" all caps.
Without using global, main() will look much cleaner:
def main():
choice = input("Do you want to start or manage the list? (start/manage)")
if choice == "start":
data = load_json()
words = data["words"]
dictee(words)
elif choice == "manage":
manage_list()
You can use the load_json() function from earlier (notice that I deleted write_json(), more on that later) if the user chooses to start the game. If the user chooses to manage the file, we can write something like this:
def manage_list():
choice = input("Do you want to add or clear the list? (add/clear)")
if choice == "add":
words_to_add = get_new_words()
add_words("vocabulary.json", words_to_add)
elif choice == "clear":
clear_words("vocabulary.json")
We get the user input first and then we can call two other functions, add_words() and clear_words():
def add_words(filename, words):
with open(filename, "r+") as f:
data = json.load(f)
data["words"].extend(words)
f.seek(0)
json.dump(data, f, indent=4)
def clear_words(filename):
with open(filename, "w+") as f:
data = {"words":[]}
json.dump(data, f, indent=4)
I did not utilize the load_json() function in the two functions above. My reasoning for this is because it would call for opening the file more times than needed, which would hurt performance. Furthermore, in these two functions, we already need to open the file, so it is okayt to load the JSON data here because it can be done with only one line: data = json.load(f). You may also notice that in add_words(), the file mode is "r+". This is the basic mode for reading and writing. "w+" is used in clear_words(), because "w+" not only opens the file for reading and writing, it overwrites the file if the file exists (that is also why we don't need to load the JSON data in clear_words()). Because we have these two functions for writing and/or overwriting data, we don't need the write_json() function that I had initially suggested.
We can then add to the list like so:
>>> Do you want to start or manage the list? (start/manage)manage
>>> Do you want to add or clear the list? (add/clear)add
>>> Please enter the words you want to add, separated by spaces: these are new words
And the JSON file becomes:
{
"words": [
"but",
"my",
"house",
"is",
"nicer",
"these",
"are",
"new",
"words"
]
}
We can then clear the list like so:
>>> Do you want to start or manage the list? (start/manage)manage
>>> Do you want to add or clear the list? (add/clear)clear
And the JSON file becomes:
{
"words": []
}
Great! Now, we implemented the ability for the user to manage the list. Let's move on to creating the functionality for the game: dictee()
You mentioned that you want to randomly select an item from a list and remove it from that list so it doesn't get asked twice. There are a multitude of ways you can accomplish this. For example, you could use random.shuffle:
def dictee(words):
correct = 0
incorrect = 0
random.shuffle(words)
for word in words:
# ask word
# evaluate response
# increment correct/incorrect
# ask if you want to play again
pass
random.shuffle randomly shuffles the list around. Then, you can iterate throught the list using for word in words: and start the game. You don't necessarily need to use random.choice here because when using random.shuffle and iterating through it, you are essentially selecting random values.
I hope this helped illustrate how powerful functions and function parameters are. They not only help you separate your code, but also make it easier to manage, understand, and write cleaner code.

Improving the recall of a Custom Named Entity Recognition (NER) in Spacy

This is a second part of another question I posted. However, they are different enough to be seperate questions, but could be related.
Previous question
Building a Custom Named Entity Recognition with Spacy , using random text as a sample
I have built a custom Named Entity Recognition (NER) using the method described in the previous question. From here, I just copied the method to build the NER from the Spacy website (under "Named Entity Recognizer" at this website https://spacy.io/usage/training#ner)
the custom NER works, sorta. If I sentence tokenize the text, lemmatize the words (so "strawberries" become "strawberry"), it can pick up an entity. However, it stops there. It sometimes picks up two entities, but very rarely.
Is there anything I can do to improve its accuracy?
Here is the code (I have TRAIN_DATA in this format, but for food items
TRAIN_DATA = [
("Uber blew through $1 million a week", {"entities": [(0, 4, "ORG")]}),
("Google rebrands its business apps", {"entities": [(0, 6, "ORG")]})]
)
The data is in the object train_food
import spacy
import nltk
nlp = spacy.blank("en")
#Create a built-in pipeline components and add them in the pipeline
if "ner" not in nlp.pipe_names:
ner = nlp.create_pipe("ner")
nlp.add_pipe(ner, last =True)
else:
ner =nlp.get_pipe("ner")
##Testing for food
for _, annotations in train_food:
for ent in annotations.get("entities"):
ner.add_label(ent[2])
# get names of other pipes to disable them during training
pipe_exceptions = ["ner", "trf_wordpiecer", "trf_tok2vec"]
other_pipes = [pipe for pipe in nlp.pipe_names if pipe not in pipe_exceptions]
model="en"
n_iter= 20
# only train NER
with nlp.disable_pipes(*other_pipes), warnings.catch_warnings():
# show warnings for misaligned entity spans once
warnings.filterwarnings("once", category=UserWarning, module='spacy')
# reset and initialize the weights randomly – but only if we're
# training a new model
nlp.begin_training()
for itn in range(n_iter):
random.shuffle(train_food)
losses = {}
# batch up the examples using spaCy's minibatch
batches = minibatch(train_food, size=compounding(4.0, 32.0, 1.001))
for batch in batches:
texts, annotations = zip(*batch)
nlp.update(
texts, # batch of texts
annotations, # batch of annotations
drop=0.5, # dropout - make it harder to memorise data
losses=losses,
)
print("Losses", losses)
text = "mike went to the supermarket today. he went and bought a potatoes, carrots, towels, garlic, soap, perfume, a fridge, a tomato, tomatoes and tuna."
After this, and using text as a sample, I ran this code
def text_processor(text):
text = text.lower()
token = nltk.word_tokenize(text)
ls = []
for x in token:
p = lemmatizer.lemmatize(x)
ls.append(f"{p}")
new_text = " ".join(map(str,ls))
return new_text
def ner (text):
new_text = text_processor(text)
tokenizer = nltk.PunktSentenceTokenizer()
sentences = tokenizer.tokenize(new_text)
for sentence in sentences:
doc = nlp(sentence)
for ent in doc.ents:
print(ent.text, ent.label_)
ner(text)
This results in
potato FOOD
carrot FOOD
Running the following code
ner("mike went to the supermarket today. he went and bought garlic and tuna")
Results in
garlic FOOD
Ideally, I want the NER to pick up potato, carrot and garlic. Is there anything I can do?
Thank you

while you are training your model, You can try some information retrieval techniques such as:
1-lower casing all of the words
2-replace words with their synonyms
3-removing stop words
4-rewrite sentences(it can be done automatically using back-translation aka translating into Arabic, then translating it back into English)
also, consider using better models such as:

How to extract images, labels from csv file and create a trainset using torch?

I downloaded a dataset for facial key point detection the image and the labels were in a CSV file I extracted it using pandas but I don't know how to convert it into a tensor and load it into a data loader for training.
dataframe = pd.read_csv("training_facial_keypoints.csv")
dataframe['Image'] = dataframe['Image'].apply(lambda i: np.fromstring(i, sep=' '))
dataframe= dataframe.dropna()
images_array = np.vstack(dataframe['Image'].values)/255.0
images_array = images_array.astype(np.float32)
images_array = images_array.reshape(-1, 96, 96, 1)
print(images_array.shape)
labels_array = dataframe[dataframe.columns[:-1]].values
labels_array = (labels_array-48)/48
labels_array = labels_array.astype(np.float32)
I have the images and labels in two arrays. How do I create a training set from this and use transforms.
Then load it using a dataloader.
Create a subclass of torch.utils.data.Dataset, fill it with your data.
You can pass desired torchvision.transforms to it and apply them to your data in __getitem__(self, index).
Than you can pass it to torch.utils.data.DataLoader which allows multi-threaded loading of data.
And PyTorch has an overwhelming documentation you should first refer to.

access leaves of json tree

I have a JSON file of the form:
{"id":442500000116137984, "reply":0, "children":[{"id":442502378957201408, "reply":0, "children":[]}]}
{"id":442500001084612608, "reply":0, "children":[{"id":442500145871990784, "reply":1, "children":[{"id":442500258421952512, "reply":1, "children":[]}]}]}
{"id":442500000258342912, "reply":0, "children":[{"id":442500636668489728, "reply":0, "children":[]}]}
In this each line refers to a separate tree. Now I want to go to the leaves of every tree and do something, basically
import json
f = open("file", 'r')
for line in f:
tree = json.loads(line)
#somehow walk through the tree and find leaves
if isLeaf(child):
print "Reached Leaf"
How do I walk through this tree object to detect all leaves?
This should work.
import json
f = open("file", 'r')
leafArray = []
def parseTree(obj):
if len(obj["children"]) == 0:
leafArray.append(obj)
else:
for child in obj["children"]:
parseTree(child)
for line in f:
global leafArray
leafArray = []
tree = json.loads(line.strip())
parseTree(tree)
#somehow walk through the tree and find leaves
print ""
for each in leafArray:
print each
You know, I once had to deal with a lot of hypermedia objects out of JSON, so I wrote this library. The problem was that I didn't know the depths of the trees beforehand, so I needed to be able to search around and get what I called the "paths" (the set of keys/indices you would use to reach a leaf) and values.
Anyway, you can mine it for ideas (I wrote it only for Python3.3+, but here's the method inside a class that would do what you want).
The basic idea is that you walk down the tree and check the objects you encounter and if you get more dictionaries (even inside of lists), you keep plunging deeper (I found it easier to write it as a recursive generator mostly by subclassing collections.MutableMapping and creating a class with a custom enumerate).
You keep track of the path you've taken along the way and once you get a value that doesn't merit further exploration (it's not a dict or a list), then you yield your path and the value:
def enumerate(self, path=None):
"""Iterate through the PelicanJson object yielding 1) the full path to
each value and 2) the value itself at that path.
"""
if path is None:
path = []
for k, v in self.store.items():
current_path = path[:]
current_path.append(k)
if isinstance(v, PelicanJson):
yield from v.enumerate(path=current_path)
elif isinstance(v, list):
for idx, list_item in enumerate(v):
list_path = current_path[:]
list_path.append(idx)
if isinstance(list_item, PelicanJson):
yield from list_item.enumerate(path=list_path)
else:
yield list_path, list_item
else:
yield current_path, v
Because this is exclusively for Python3, it takes advantage of things like yield from, so it won't work out of the box for you (and I certainly don't mean to offer my solution as the only one). Personally, I just got frustrated with reusing a lot of this logic in various functions, so writing this library saved me a lot of work and I could go back to doing weird things with the Hypermedia APIs I had to deal with.
You can do something like this. (I don't know the syntax of python).
temp = tree #Your JSON object in each line
while (temp.children ! = []){
temp = temp.children;
}
Your temp will now be the leaf.

Using Python's csv.dictreader to search for specific key to then print its value

BACKGROUND:
I am having issues trying to search through some CSV files.
I've gone through the python documentation: http://docs.python.org/2/library/csv.html
about the csv.DictReader(csvfile, fieldnames=None, restkey=None, restval=None, dialect='excel', *args, **kwds) object of the csv module.
My understanding is that the csv.DictReader assumes the first line/row of the file are the fieldnames, however, my csv dictionary file simply starts with "key","value" and goes on for atleast 500,000 lines.
My program will ask the user for the title (thus the key) they are looking for, and present the value (which is the 2nd column) to the screen using the print function. My problem is how to use the csv.dictreader to search for a specific key, and print its value.
Sample Data:
Below is an example of the csv file and its contents...
"Mamer","285713:13"
"Champhol","461034:2"
"Station Palais","972811:0"
So if i want to find "Station Palais" (input), my output will be 972811:0. I am able to manipulate the string and create the overall program, I just need help with the csv.dictreader.I appreciate any assistance.
EDITED PART:
import csv
def main():
with open('anchor_summary2.csv', 'rb') as file_data:
list_of_stuff = []
reader = csv.DictReader(file_data, ("title", "value"))
for i in reader:
list_of_stuff.append(i)
print list_of_stuff
main()
The documentation you linked to provides half the answer:
class csv.DictReader(csvfile, fieldnames=None, restkey=None, restval=None, dialect='excel', *args, **kwds)
[...] maps the information read into a dict whose keys are given by the optional fieldnames parameter. If the fieldnames parameter is omitted, the values in the first row of the csvfile will be used as the fieldnames.
It would seem that if the fieldnames parameter is passed, the given file will not have its first record interpreted as headers (the parameter will be used instead).
# file_data is the text of the file, not the filename
reader = csv.DictReader(file_data, ("title", "value"))
for i in reader:
list_of_stuff.append(i)
which will (apparently; I've been having trouble with it) produce the following data structure:
[{"title": "Mamer", "value": "285713:13"},
{"title": "Champhol", "value": "461034:2"},
{"title": "Station Palais", "value": "972811:0"}]
which may need to be further massaged into a title-to-value mapping by something like this:
data = {}
for i in list_of_stuff:
data[i["title"]] = i["value"]
Now just use the keys and values of data to complete your task.
And here it is as a dictionary comprehension:
data = {row["title"]: row["value"] for row in csv.DictReader(file_data, ("title", "value"))}
The currently accepted answer is fine, but there's a slightly more direct way of getting at the data. The dict() constructor in Python can take any iterable.
In addition, your code might have issues on Python 3, because Python 3's csv module expects the file to be opened in text mode, not binary mode. You can make your code compatible with 2 and 3 by using io.open instead of open.
import csv
import io
with io.open('anchor_summary2.csv', 'r', newline='', encoding='utf-8') as f:
data = dict(csv.reader(f))
print(data['Champhol'])
As a warning, if your csv file has two rows with the same value in the first column, the later value will overwrite the earlier value. (This is also true of the other posted solution.)
If your program really is only supposed to print the result, there's really no reason to build a keyed dictionary.
import csv
import io
# Python 2/3 compat
try:
input = raw_input
except NameError:
pass
def main():
# Case-insensitive & leading/trailing whitespace insensitive
user_city = input('Enter a city: ').strip().lower()
with io.open('anchor_summary2.csv', 'r', newline='', encoding='utf-8') as f:
for city, value in csv.reader(f):
if user_city == city.lower():
print(value)
break
else:
print("City not found.")
if __name __ == '__main__':
main()
The advantage of this technique is that the csv isn't loaded into memory and the data is only iterated over once. I also added a little code the calls lower on both the keys to make the match case-insensitive. Another advantage is if the city the user requests is near the top of the file, it returns almost immediately and stops looking through the file.
With all that said, if searching performance is your primary consideration, you should consider storing the data in a database.
