Tokenizers Ruby

:slightly_smiling_face: Fast state-of-the-art tokenizers for Ruby

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem "tokenizers"

Getting Started

Load a pretrained tokenizer

tokenizer = Tokenizers.from_pretrained("bert-base-cased")

Encode

encoded = tokenizer.encode("I can feel the magic, can you?")
encoded.tokens
encoded.ids

Decode

tokenizer.decode(ids)

Training

Create a tokenizer

tokenizer = Tokenizers::Tokenizer.new(Tokenizers::Models::BPE.new(unk_token: "[UNK]"))

Set the pre-tokenizer

tokenizer.pre_tokenizer = Tokenizers::PreTokenizers::Whitespace.new

Train the tokenizer (example data)

trainer = Tokenizers::Trainers::BpeTrainer.new(special_tokens: ["[UNK]", "[CLS]", "[SEP]", "[PAD]", "[MASK]"])
tokenizer.train(["wiki.train.raw", "wiki.valid.raw", "wiki.test.raw"], trainer)

Encode

output = tokenizer.encode("Hello, y'all! How are you 😁 ?")
output.tokens

Save the tokenizer to a file

tokenizer.save("tokenizer.json")

Load a tokenizer from a file

tokenizer = Tokenizers.from_file("tokenizer.json")

API

This library follows the Tokenizers Python API. You can follow Python tutorials and convert the code to Ruby in many cases. Feel free to open an issue if you run into problems.
