Classify text with BERT ---- TF Hub
classify_text_with_bert
This tutorial contains complete code to fine-tune BERT to perform sentiment analysis on a dataset of plain-text IMDB movie reviews. In addition to training a model, you will learn how to preprocess text into an appropriate format.
In this notebook, you will:
- Load the IMDB dataset
- Load a BERT model from TensorFlow Hub
- Build your own model by combining BERT with a classifier
- Train your own model, fine-tuning BERT as part of that
- Save your model and use it to classify sentences
About BERT:
BERT and other Transformer encoder architectures have been wildly successful on a variaty of tasks in NLP (natural language processing). They compute vector-space representations of natural language that are suitable for use in deep learning models. The BERT family of models uses the Transformer encoder architecture to process each token of input text in the full context of all tokens before and after, hence the name: Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers
BERT models are usually pre-trained on a large corpus of text, then fine-tuned for specific tasks
Sentiment analysis:
This notebook trains a sentiment analysis model to classify movie reviews as positive or negative, bases on the text of the review
The IMDB dataset has already been divided into train and test, but it lacks a validation set. Let’s create a validation set using an 80:20 split of the training data by using the validation_split argument below
Loading models from TensorFlow Hub:
Here you can choose which BERT model you will load from TensorFlow Hub and fine-tune. There are multiple BERT models available:
- BERT-Base, Uncased and seven more models with trained weights released by the original BERT authors
- Small BERTs have the same general architecture but fewer and/or smaller Transformaer blocks, which lets you explore tradeoffs between speed, size and quality
- ALBERTL four different sizes of “A Lite BERT” that reduces model size (but not computation time) by sharing parameters between layers
- BERT Experts: eight models that all have the BERT-base architecture but offer a choice between different pre-training domains, to align more closely with the target task
- Electra has the same architecture as BERT (in three different sizes), but gets pre-trained as a discriminator in a set-up that resembles a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)
- BERT with Talking-Heads Attention and Gated GELU has two improvements to the core of the Transformer architecture
The suggestion is to start with a Small BERT (with fewer parameters) since they are faster to fine-tune. If you like a small model but with higher accuracy, ALBERT might be your next option. It you want even better accuracy, choose one of the classic BERT sizes or their recent refinements like Electra, Talking Heads, or a BERT Expert
The preprocessing model:
Text inputs need to be transformed to numeric token ids and arranged in several Tensors before being input to BERT. TensorFlow Hub provides a matching preprocessing model for each of the BERT models discussed above, which implements this transformation using TF ops from the TF.text library. It is not necessary to run pure Python code outside your TensorFlow model to preprocess text
You will load the preprocessing model into a hub.KerasLayer to compose your fine-tune model. This is the preferred API to load a TF2-style SavedModel from TF Hub into a Keras model
As you can see, now you have the 3 outputs from the preprocessing that a BERT model would use (input_words_id, input_mask and input_type_ids)
Some other important points:
- The input is truncated to 128 tokens. The number of tokens can be customized, and you can see more details on the Solve GLUE tasks using BERT on a TPU colab
- The input_type_ids only have one value (0) because this is a single sentence input. For a multiple sentence input, it would have one number for each input
Since this text preprocessor is TensorFlow model, It can be included in your model directly
The BERT models return a map with 3 important keys: pooled_output, sequence_output, encoder_outputs:
- pooled_output represents each input sequence as a whole. The shape is [batch_size, H]. You can think of this as an embedding for the entire movie review
- sequence_output represents each input token in the context. The shape is [batch_size, seq_length, H]. You can think of this as a contextual embedding for every token in the movie review
- encoder_outputs are the intermediate activations of the L Transformer blocks. outputs[“encoder_outputs”][i] is a Tensor of shape [batch_size, seq_length, 1024] with the outputs of the i-th Transformer block, for 0 <= i < L. The last value of the list is equal to sequence_output
Loss function:
Since this is a binary classification problem and the model outputs a probability (a single-unit layer), you’ll use loss.BinaryCrossentropy loss function
Optimizer:
For the learning rate (init_lr), you will use the same schedule as BERT pre-training: linear decay of a notional initial learning rate, prefixed with a linear warm-up phase over the first 10% of training steps (num_warmup_steps). In line with the BERT paper, the initial learning rate is smaller for fine-tuning (best of 5e-5, 3e-5, 2e-5)
Export for inference:
Let’s reload the model, so you can try it side by side with the model that is still in memory
If you want to use your model on TF Serving, remember that it will call your SavedModel through one of its named signatures.
