A benchmark for understanding and evaluating rationales: http://www.eraserbenchmark.com/

Core Files

The core files are utils and metrics. These two files comprise everything you need to work with our released datasets.

utils documents everything you need to know about our input formats. Output formats and validation code are covered in metrics.

Models

At the moment we offer two forms of pipeline models:

• (Lehman, et al., 2019) - sentence level rationale identification, followed by taking the best resulting sentence and classifying it.
  • Both portions of this pipeline function via encoding the input sentence (via a GRU), attending (conditioned on a query vector), and making a classification.
• BERT-To-BERT - the same as above, but using a BERT model.

(Lehman, et al., 2019) Pipeline

To run this model, we need to first:

• create a model_components, data, and output, directory
• download GloVe vectors from http://nlp.stanford.edu/data/glove.6B.zip and extract the 200 dimensional vector to model_components
• download http://evexdb.org/pmresources/vec-space-models/PubMed-w2v.bin to model_components
• set up a virtual env meeting requirements.txt
• download data from the primary website to data and extract each dataset to its respective directory
• ensure that we have at least an 11G GPU. Reducing batch sizes may enable running on a smaller GPU.

Then we can run (as an example):

PYTHONPATH=./:$PYTHONPATH python rationale_benchmark/models/pipeline/pipeline_train.py --data_dir data/movies --output_dir output/movies --model_params params/movies.json
PYTHONPATH=./:$PYTHONPATH python rationale_benchmark/metrics.py --split test --data_dir data/movies --results output/movies/test_decoded.jsonl --score_file output/movies/test_scores.json

BERT-To-BERT Pipeline

To run this model, instructions are effectively the same as the simple pipeline above, except we also require a GPU with approximately 16G of memory (e.g. Tesla V100). The same caveats about batch sizes apply here as well.

Then we can run (as an example):

PYTHONPATH=./:$PYTHONPATH python rationale_benchmark/models/pipeline/bert_pipeline.py --data_dir data/movies --output_dir output_bert/movies --model_params param/movies.json
PYTHONPATH=./:$PYTHONPATH python rationale_benchmark/metrics.py --split test --data_dir data/movies --results output_bert/movies/test_decoded.jsonl --score_file output_bert/movies/test_scores.json

For more examples, see the BERT-to-BERT reproduction.
