Setup

In order to run the code, I recommend the following environment.

Python 3.5.4 or higher.
Chainer 4.0.0 or higher. (chainer)
CuPy 4.0.0 or higher. (cupy)

Requirements

The code require GPU environment. Please see requirements.txt to run my code.

Installation

Download code from clone or download
Install the requirements: reguriements.txt

You can also use Python data science platform, Anaconda as follows:

Download Anaconda from (https://www.anaconda.com/download/)

Example: Anaconda 5.1 for Linux(x86 architecture, 64bit) Installer

wget https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

bash Anaconda3-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

## Create virtual environments with the Anaconda Python distribution ##
conda env create -f=hft_cnn_env.yml

source activate hft_cnn_env

You can run my HFT-CNN code in this environment

Quick-start

You can categorize sample data (Amazon product reviews) by running example.sh, with the Flat model.

The results are stored:

RESULT: categorization result
PARAMS: obtained CNN parameters
LOG: Log file

Training model change

You can change a training model by modifying the "ModelType" in the file "example.sh"

## Network Type (XML-CNN,  CNN-Flat,  CNN-Hierarchy,  CNN-fine-tuning or Pre-process)
ModelType=XML-CNN

CNN-Flat: Flat model
CNN-Hierarchy: WoFt model
CNN-fine-tuning: HTF model
XML-CNN: XML-CNN model

Notes:

When you choose CNN-Hierarchy or CNN-fine-tuning, learn a model by using Pre-process
- Example: ModelType=Pre-process => ModelType=CNN-Hierarchy
When you choose Pre-process, it learns the top level of a hierarchy and stores CNN parameters. The stored parameters are used in both CNN-Hierarchy and CNN-fine-tuning.

Word embedding

my code utilize word embedding obtained by fastText. There are two options:

You can simply run example.sh. In this case, wiki.en.vec is downloaded in the directory Word_embedding and is used for training.
You can specify your own "bin" file by making a path EmbeddingWeightsPath in the example.sh file.

## Embedding Weights Type (fastText .bin)
EmbeddingWeightsPath=./Word_embedding/

Learning by using your own data

Data

Training data: labeled training data
Validation data: labeled validation data
Test data: test data for categorization

Validation data is used to evaluate generalization error for each epoch. It is used to find when overfitting starts during the training. Training is then stopped before convergence to avoid the overfitting, i.e., early stopping. The parameter whose generalization error is the lowest among all the epochs is stored.

Format

The data format is:

The first column: category labels.
- Each label is split by ",".
The second column: document.
- Each word in the document is split by a space, " ".

Each column is split by Tab(\t).

Example:

LABEL1  I am a boy .
LABEL2,LABEL6  This is my pen .
LABEL3,LABEL1   ...

Hierarchical structure

When your data has a hierarchical structure, you can use my WoFT model and HTF model. Please see "TREE/Amazon_all.tree". You can use your own hierarchical structure by overwriting "TreefilePath" in the example.sh file.
