Quick start

Download Pretrained BERT Model

You will have to download pretrained BERT model in order to execute the fine-tune pipeline. We recommand to use models provided by the official release on BERT from BERT-Base (Google's pre-trained models). Note that their model is in tensorflow format. To convert tensorflow model to pytorch model, you can use the helper script to do that. For example,

cd code/
python convert_tf_checkpoint_to_pytorch.py \
--tf_checkpoint_path uncased_L-12_H-768_A-12/bert_model.ckpt \
--bert_config_file uncased_L-12_H-768_A-12/bert_config.json \
--pytorch_dump_path uncased_L-12_H-768_A-12/pytorch_model.bin

Datasets

We already preprocess the datasets for you. To be able to compare with the SOTA models, we adapt the preprocess pipeline right from this previous repo where SOTA models are trained. To regenerate the dataset, please refer to their paper and generate. Please also consider to cite their paper for this process.

Train CG-BERT Model and QACG-BERT Models

Our (T)ABSA BERT models are adapted from huggingface BERT model for text classification. If you want to take a look at the original model please search for BertForSequenceClassification. To train QACG-BERT model with semeval2014 dataset on GPU 0 and 1, you can do something like this,

cd code/
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 python run_classifier.py \
--task_name sentihood_NLI_M \
--data_dir ../datasets/sentihood/ \
--output_dir ../results/sentihood/QACGBERT-reproduce/ \
--model_type QACGBERT \
--do_lower_case \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--train_batch_size 64 \
--eval_batch_size 256 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 30 \
--vocab_file ../models/BERT-Google/vocab.txt \
--bert_config_file ../models/BERT-Google/bert_config.json \
--init_checkpoint ../models/BERT-Google/pytorch_model.bin \
--seed 123 \
--evaluate_interval 25

Please take a look at code/util/args_parser.py to find our different arguments you can pass with. And you can alsp take a look at code/util/processor.py to see how we process different datasets. We currently supports almost 10 different dataset loadings. You can create your own within 1 minute for loading data. You can specify your directories info above in the command.

Analyze Attention Weights, Relevance and More

Once you have your model ready, save it to a location that you know (e.g., ../results/semeval2014/QACGBERT/checkpoint.bin). Our example code how to get relevance scores is in a jupyter notebook format, which is much easier to read. This is how you will open it,

cd code/notebook/
jupyter notebook

Inside visualization, we provide an example on how to extract attention scores, gradient sensitivity scores!
