BERT_with_keras

This is a implementation of BERT(Bidirectional Encoder Representation of Transformer) with Keras.

The backend of Keras must be tensorflow.

Usage

Here is a quick-start example to preprocess raw data for pretraining and fine-tuning for text classification. For more details, see Predicting Movie Review Sentriment with BERT

Data

Let's use Standord's Large Movie Review Dataset for BERT pretraining and fine-tuning, the code below, which downloads,extracts and imports the dateset, is borrowed from this tensorflow tutorial. The dataset consists of IMDB movie reviews labeled by positivity from 1 to 10.

import os
import re
import tensorflow as tf
import pandas as pd

# Load all files from a directory in a DataFrame.
def load_directory_data(directory):
    data = {}
    data["sentence"] = []
    data["sentiment"] = []
    for file_path in os.listdir(directory):
        with tf.gfile.GFile(os.path.join(directory, file_path), "r") as f:
            data["sentence"].append(f.read())
            data["sentiment"].append(re.match("\d+_(\d+)\.txt", file_path).group(1))
    return pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)

# Merge positive and negative examples, add a polarity column and shuffle.
def load_dataset(directory):
    pos_df = load_directory_data(os.path.join(directory, "pos"))
    neg_df = load_directory_data(os.path.join(directory, "neg"))
    pos_df["polarity"] = 1
    neg_df["polarity"] = 0
    return pd.concat([pos_df, neg_df]).sample(frac=1).reset_index(drop=True)

# Download and process the dataset files.
def download_and_load_datasets(force_download=False):
    dataset = tf.keras.utils.get_file(
        fname="aclImdb.tar.gz", 
        origin="http://ai.stanford.edu/~amaas/data/sentiment/aclImdb_v1.tar.gz", 
        extract=True)
  
    train_df = load_dataset(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(dataset), 
                                         "aclImdb", "train"))
    test_df = load_dataset(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(dataset), 
                                          "aclImdb", "test"))
    return train_df, test_df
 
train, test = download_and_load_datasets()

pre-training

let's train a bert pre-training model.

import os
import spacy
from const import bert_data_path,bert_model_path
from preprocess import create_pretraining_data_from_docs
from pretraining import bert_pretraining
nlp = spacy.load('en')

# use IMDB movie review as pretraining data
texts = train['sentence'].tolist() + test['sentence'].tolist()

sentences_texts=[]
for text in texts:
    doc = nlp(text)
    sentences_texts.append([s.text for s in doc.sents])

vocab_path = os.path.join(bert_data_path, 'vocab.txt')

create_pretraining_data_from_docs(sentences_texts,
                                  vocab_path=vocab_path,
                                  save_path=os.path.join(bert_data_path,'pretraining_data.npz'),
                                  token_method='wordpiece',
                                  language='en',
                                  dupe_factor=10)

bert_pretraining(train_data_path=os.path.join(bert_data_path,'pretraining_data.npz'),
                 bert_config_file=os.path.join(bert_data_path, 'bert_config.json'),
                 save_path=bert_model_path,
                 batch_size=32,
                 seq_length=128,
                 max_predictions_per_seq=20,
                 val_batch_size=32,
                 multi_gpu=0,
                 num_warmup_steps=1000,
                 checkpoints_interval_steps=1000,
                 pretraining_model_name='bert_pretraining.h5',
                 encoder_model_name='bert_encoder.h5')

Then, pertraining data would be found in save_dir.

Fine-tuning

You can use the pre-training model as the initial point for your NLP model. For example, you can use the pre-training model to init a classfier model.
