Project 2 - Recurrent Networks and Sentiment Classification

Introduction

You should now have a good understanding of the internal dynamics of TensorFlow and how to implement, train and test various network architectures. In this assignment

we will develop a classifier able to detect the sentiment of movie reviews. Sentiment classification is an active area of research. Aside from improving performance of

systems like Siri and Cortana, sentiment analysis is very actively utilized in the finance industry, where sentiment is required for automated trading on news snippits

and press releases.

Preliminaries

Before commencing this assignment, you should download and install TensorFlow, and the appropriate python version. It is also helpful to have completed the Word

Embeddings and Recurrent Neural Networks tutorials located on the TensorFlow website.

You should download the following files from the directory hw2/src

hw2.zipPython source code for Stage 1

hw2sent.zipPython source code for Stage 2

reviews.tar.gz25000 plain text movie reviews, split into positive and negative sets

glove.6B.50d.txt  GloVe word embeddings for Stage 2

Note that reviews.tar.gz should remain in its gzipped format. You may need to adjust the Preferences in your Web browser in order to prevent it from being gunzipped

automatically (for example, with Mac Safari, go to Preferences, General and un-check "Open safe files after downloading").

Dataset

The training dataset contains a series of movie reviews scraped from the IMBD website. There are no more than 30 reviews for any one specific movie. You have been

provided with a tarball (reviews.tar.gz) that contains two folders; "pos" and "neg". It contains the unchanged reviews in plain text form. Each folder contains 12500

positive and negative reviews respectively. Each review is contained in the first line of its associated text file, with no line breaks.

You will need to extract these files, and load them into a datastructure you can feed into TensorFlow. It is essential to preform some level of preprocessing on this

text prior to feeding it into your model. Because the glove embeddings are all in lowercase, you should convert all reviews to lowercase, and also strip punctuation.

You may want to do additional preprocessing by stripping out unessesary words etc. You should examine any avenue you can think of to reduce superfluous data that you

will feed into your model.

For the purposes of reducing training time, you MUST limit every review fed into the classifier at 40 words. This should occur after your preprocessing. The model must

only accept input sequences of length 40. If a review is not 40 words it should be 0-padded. Some reviews are much longer than 40 words, but for this assignment we

will assume the sentiment can be obtained from the first 40.

For evaluation, we will run your model against a test set that contains an additional 25000 reviews spit into positive and negative categories. For this reason you

should be very careful about overfitting - your model could report 100% training accuracy but completely fail on unseen reviews. There are various ways to prevent this

such as judicious use of dropout, splitting the data into a training and validation set, etc.

Tasks

There are two main tasks that must be implemented; word embedding and the classifier itself. Each task can be completed independently of the other, and the two tasks

are to be submitted separately (as hw2 and hw2sent).

Stage 1: Word Embeddings

Word embeddings have been shown to improve the performance of many NLP models by converting words from character arrays to vectors that contain semantic infomation of

the word itself. In this assignment, you will implement a Continuous Bag of Words (CBOW) version of word2vec - one of the fastest and most commonly used embedding

algorithms.

A good introduction to word embeddings can be found in the TensorFlow word2vec tutorial. This section of the assignment builds on that tutorial.

The aim of this task is to modify the code here so that it uses the continuous bag of words (CBOW) model instead of the skip-gram model. This should produce better

embeddings, particularly when less data is available. Furthermore, implementing this change should give you a better understanding of both models, and the differences

between them.

CBOW vs Skip-gram

Input-Output

The main difference between the skip-gram and CBOW model, is the way training data is presented.

With the skip-gram model, the input is the word in the middle of the context window, and the target is to predict any context word (word that is skip_window words to

the left or the right) for the given word.

With CBOW, the input is all the words in the context besides the middle word, and the target is to predict the middle word, that was omitted from the context window.

For example, given the sentence fragment "the cat sat on the", the following training examples would be used by skip-gram, with parameters skip_window=1, num_skips=2 -

in the form: [words in context window]: (input, target)

[the cat sat]: (cat, the), (cat, sat)

[cat sat on]: (sat, cat), (sat, on),

[sat on the]: (on, sat), (on, the)

While for CBOW the input-output pairs are (note that the inputs now contain more than one word):

[the cat sat]: ([the sat], cat),

[cat sat on]: ([cat on], the),

[sat on the]: ([sat the], on)

Of course, as is explained in the tutorial, the words themselves aren't actually used, but rather their (integer) index into the vocabulary (dictionary) for the task.

CBOW Input: Mean of Context Words Embeddings

In the skip-gram model there is just a single word as the input, and this word's embedding is looked up, and passed to the predictor.

In the CBOW, since there's more than one word in the context we just take the mean (average) of the embeddings for all context words (hint tf.reduce_mean(?, axis=?)).

Task

Download hw2.zip and reviews.tar.gz from the directory hw2/src. When unzipped, a directory hw2 will be created with the following files:

word2vec_fns.pyskeleton code for your word2vec implementation

word2vec_cbow.pycode to train your word2vec model

imdb_sentiment_data.py  helper functions for loading the sentiment data, used by word2vec_cbow

plot_embeddings.pyto visualise embeddings

The file word2vec_fns.py is the one you will need to modify and submit. It contains two functions:

generate_batch(...) which is initially identical to the function in , with just one change, the num_skips parameter has been

removed as it is not needed in the CBOW regime.

get_mean_context_embeds(...)

You are to:

modify generate_batch so batch is a vector of shape (batch_size, 2*skip_window), with each entry for the batch containing all the context words, with corresponding

label being the word in the middle of the context

implement get_mean_context_embeds so that it returns mean_context_embeds - the mean of the embeddings for all context words for each entry in the batch, see the

docstring in the function for more details.

You can run the code that does the embeddings with:

python3 word2vec_cbow.py

If this completes without error, you should see a file called CBOW_Embeddings.npy in the current directory, which you will need to submit along with your version of

word2vec_fns.py

Additionally, if you run

python3 plot_embeddings.py

you should be able to see a low dimensional visualisation of the embeddings created with TSNE. Don't worry if you are unable to get the visualisation running. (Note:

If you are working on the CSE Lab machines, you may need to use pip3 in order to get matplotlib installed correctly).

Hints:

[i for i in range(5) if i != 2] produces the list [0,1,3,4], something like this will be useful for extracting the CBOW input from the full context_window

generate_batch should be slightly simpler than the skip-gram version, since only one (input, output) pair needs to be created for each context window.

get_mean_context_embeds(...) should only require about 2 lines of TensorFlow code.

Submitting Stage 1

You should submit Stage 1 by typing:

give cs9444 hw2 word2vec_fns.py CBOW_Embeddings.npy

Stage 2: Sentiment Classifier

Download hw2sent.zip from the hw2 directory and unzip it to produce a directory hw2sent containing these files:

implementation.py  this is a skeleton file for your RNN classifier implementation

train.pyfile that calls implementation.py and trains your sentiment model

If you are running on your own machine, you will also need to download the file glove.6B.50d.txt.gz and gunzip it. If you are running on the Lab machines, you could

use the copy of glove.6B.50d.txt in the class account by uncommenting this line in implementation.py (and commenting out the line above it)

data = open("/home/cs9444/public_html/17s2/hw2/glove.6B.50d.txt",'r',encoding="utf-8")

In this assignment, unlike assignment 1, the network structure is not specified, and you will be assessed based on the performance of your final classifier.

There are very few constraints on your model - it must only use some form of recurrent unit (tanh, LSTM, GRU etc.) and be trained by the code provided.

So that no one has an advantage due to access to better hardware, we have provided the train.py file. On submission, you should train your model using an unedited

version of train.py (this ensures the same number of data presentations for everyone's model). While an unchanged file must be used during submission, you are

encouraged to make changes to this file during development. You may want to track additional tensors in tensorboard, or serialize training data so that the word

embedding is not called on each run. It would also be highly advisable to split the data into a training and validation set to ensure your model does not overfit.

You must make use of recurrent network elements in your final solution. Aside from the fact that this is the type of network this assessment aims to assess, for text

classification some recurrency will be important. Consider the review fragment; "I really thought this was a great example of how not to make a movie.". A naive

classifier (e.g. a feed forward network trained on word counts) would be unable to correctly identify the sentiment as it depends on the tail end of the review being

understood in the context of the "not" negation. Recurrent units allow us to preserve this dependency as we parse the review.

During testing, we will load your saved network from a TensorFlow checkpoint (see: the TensorFlow programmers guide to saved models). To allow our test code to find

the correct path of the graph to connect to, the following naming requirements must be implemented.

Input placeholder: name="input_data"

labels placeholder: name="labels"

accuracy tensor: name="accuracy"

loss tensor: name="loss"

If your code does not meet these requirements it cannot be marked and will be recorded as incomplete.

Code Structure

train.py

This file contains the training code for the model to be defined in implementation.py

It calls functions to load the data, convert it to embedded form, and define the model structure. It then runs 100000 training iterations, with whatever batch size is

defined in implementation.py.

Accuracy and loss values are printed to the terminal every 50 iterations, and are also saved as tensorboard summaries in a created tensorboard directory. The model is

saved every 10000 iterations. These model files are saved in a created checkpoints directory, and should consist of a checkpoint file, plus three files ending in the

extentions .data-00000-of-00001, .index and .meta .

This is the model that must be submitted, and will be used for marking.

implemention.py

This is where you should implement your solution. This file must contain three functions: load_glove_embeddings(), load_data() and define_graph()

load_glove_embeddings() should load the word embedding vectors found in glove.6B.50d.txt and return the vectors in array form, and a dictionary matching words to

index's in that array. The array should contain one vector per row, and the dictionary should have words in string form as keys, and index's as values. For example, in

the provided file, the first word vector is for "the". On loading this first vector, the values themselves (0.418 0.24968 -0.41242 0.1217 etc.) should be put in the

first row of the array. A new entry in the dictionary should then be added: {"the":0}. This tells us that the vector values for the word "the" are located in the first

row of our embeddings array. There should also be a 0 vector as the first entry, with it's associated key being 'UNK' - this will be used for unknown words.

load_data(glove_dict) should load the training data found in reviews.tar.gz into a numpy array that can be used for training. Reviews should take up one row of the

array, which must be capped at 40 colums. Each element should contain the index of the word from that review in the generated embeddings array. If reviews are shorter

than 40 words they should be 0-padded.

define_graph(glove_embeddings_arr, batch_size) This is where you should define your model. The embedding array will be required to perform an embedding lookup

(tf.nn.embedding_lookup()). You are required to make use of at least one recurrent unit - either an LSTM, GRU or tanh. To ensure your model is sufficiently general (so

as to achieve the best test accuracy) you should experiment with regularization techniques such as dropout. This is where you must also provide the correct names for

your placeholders and variables.

There is also a global variable, batch_size which you should experiment with changing. This defines the size of the batches that will be used to train the model in

train.py and may have a significant effect on model performance.

Visualizing Your Progress

In addition to the output of  train.py, you can view the progress of your models using the tensorboard logging included in that file. To view these logs, run the

following command from the src directory:

python3 -m tensorflow.tensorboard --logdir=./tensorboard

Depending on your installation, the following command might also work:

tensorboard --logdir=./tensorboard

open a Web browser and navigate to  

you should be able to see a plot of the loss and accuracies in TensorBoard under the "scalars" tab

Make sure you are in the same directory from which train.py is running. For this assignment, tensorboard is an extremely useful tool and you should endeavor to get it

running. A good resource is here for more information.
