Lab: Creating Word Embeddings and Building an AI Language Model in Google Colab
1. Introduction
Creating Word Embeddings and Building an AI Language Model in Google Colab
Part 1: Introduction
Welcome to the lab session where we will delve into the world of word embeddings and AI language models.
This lab is designed to give you a hands-on experience in creating word embeddings using popular techniques and utilizing these embeddings to build and train an AI language model.
We will use Google Colab for this lab to leverage its computational resources and ease of use.
Objective
By the end of this lab, you will be able to:
1. Understand the concept and importance of word embeddings.
2. Create word embeddings using Word2Vec.
3. Build a simple AI language model using the generated word embeddings.
4. Train the language model on a corpus of text.
We will be using the standard Guttenberg Corpus:
5. Evaluate and visualize the word embeddings.
Tools:
To achieve our objectives, we will use the following tools:
1. **Google Colab**: An online platform that provides free access to GPUs and TPUs, making it ideal for running machine learning tasks.
2. **Python**: The primary programming language for this lab.
3. **TensorFlow/Keras**: Popular libraries for building and training machine learning models.
4. **NLTK (Natural Language Toolkit)**: A library for working with human language data (text).
5. **Gensim**:
A library for topic modeling and document similarity analysis, used here for creating word embeddings.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Setting Up Google Colab
- Open Google Colab by navigating to [colab.research.google.com](https://colab.research.google.com).
- Create a new notebook by clicking on **File > New Notebook**.
2. Installing Necessary Libraries
In your Google Colab notebook, you need to install the required libraries. Run the following commands to install `nltk`, `gensim`, and `tensorflow`:
```python
!pip install nltk gensim tensorflow
```
3. Importing Libraries
Import the libraries that you will be using throughout the lab:
```python
import nltk
import gensim
import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Embedding, LSTM, Dense
from nltk.corpus import gutenberg
from nltk.tokenize import word_tokenize
from nltk.corpus import stopwords
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn.manifold import TSNE
```
4. Downloading and Preparing the Data
We will use a text corpus from the NLTK library for this lab.
Let's download and prepare the data:
```python
nltk.download('gutenberg')
nltk.download('punkt')
nltk.download('stopwords')
# Load the corpus
corpus = gutenberg.raw('austen-emma.txt')
# Tokenize the text
words = word_tokenize(corpus.lower())
# Remove stopwords and non-alphanumeric tokens
stop_words = set(stopwords.words('english'))
words = [word for word in words if word.isalnum() and word not in stop_words]
```
5. Creating Word Embeddings Using Word2Vec
We will use the Word2Vec model from the Gensim library to create word embeddings:
```python
# Create Word2Vec model
word2vec_model = gensim.models.Word2Vec(sentences=[words], vector_size=100, window=5, min_count=1, workers=4)
# Save the model for later use
word2vec_model.save("word2vec.model")
```
6. Visualizing Word Embeddings
To better understand the word embeddings, we will visualize them using t-SNE:
```python
def plot_embeddings(model):
labels = []
tokens = []
for word in model.wv.index_to_key:
tokens.append(model.wv[word])
labels.append(word)
tsne_model = TSNE(perplexity=40, n_components=2, init='pca', n_iter=2500, random_state=23)
new_values = tsne_model.fit_transform(tokens)
x = []
y = []
for value in new_values:
x.append(value[0])
y.append(value[1])
plt.figure(figsize=(16, 16))
for i in range(len(x)):
plt.scatter(x[i], y[i])
plt.annotate(labels[i],
xy=(x[i], y[i]),
xytext=(5, 2),
textcoords='offset points',
ha='right',
va='bottom')
plt.show()
plot_embeddings(word2vec_model)
```
Fix the error in the above code:
Here are the fixes to the code so it runs properly:
1. Import necessary modules from gensim.
2. Initialize the Word2Vec model correctly.
3. Ensure the Word2Vec model is trained on the tokenized words.
4. Pass the correct model to the `plot_embeddings` function.
Here's the corrected code:
import nltk
import gensim
import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Embedding, LSTM, Dense
from nltk.corpus import gutenberg
from nltk.tokenize import word_tokenize
from nltk.corpus import stopwords
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn.manifold import TSNE
# Download necessary NLTK data
nltk.download('gutenberg')
nltk.download('punkt')
nltk.download('stopwords')
# Load the corpus
corpus = gutenberg.raw('austen-emma.txt')
# Tokenize the text
words = word_tokenize(corpus.lower())
# Remove stopwords and non-alphanumeric tokens
stop_words = set(stopwords.words('english'))
words = [word for word in words if word.isalnum() and word not in stop_words]
# Train a Word2Vec model
word2vec_model = gensim.models.Word2Vec(sentences=[words], vector_size=100, window=5, min_count=1, workers=4)
def plot_embeddings(model):
labels = []
tokens = []
for word in model.wv.index_to_key:
tokens.append(model.wv[word])
labels.append(word)
tokens = np.array(tokens) # Convert to NumPy array
tsne_model = TSNE(perplexity=40, n_components=2, init='pca', n_iter=2500, random_state=23)
new_values = tsne_model.fit_transform(tokens)
x = []
y = []
for value in new_values:
x.append(value[0])
y.append(value[1])
plt.figure(figsize=(16, 16))
for i in range(len(x)):
plt.scatter(x[i], y[i])
plt.annotate(labels[i],
xy=(x[i], y[i]),
xytext=(5, 2),
textcoords='offset points',
ha='right',
va='bottom')
plt.show()
# Plot the embeddings
plot_embeddings(word2vec_model)
```
This code ensures the Word2Vec model is properly trained and the embeddings are visualized using t-SNE.***
Yeah! Congratulations! You have now made an embedding and used a PYTHON plot visualization to see what it looks like!
Here is the completed GCN:
Explanation of Key Concepts
Word Embeddings
Word embeddings are dense vector representations of words in a continuous vector space where words that have similar meanings are positioned close to each other. This representation captures the semantic meaning of words, enabling machine learning models to understand and process text more effectively.
#### **Mathematical Background**
1. **Vectors**: Words are represented as vectors in a high-dimensional space.
2. **Dot Product**: The similarity between two words can be measured using the dot product of their vectors. A higher dot product indicates higher similarity.
3. **Optimization**: Word embeddings are typically learned by optimizing a loss function that aims to position similar words closer together in the vector space.
#### **Word2Vec**
Word2Vec is a popular algorithm for generating word embeddings. It comes in two flavors:
- **Skip-gram**: Given a word, predict the surrounding context words.
- **CBOW (Continuous Bag of Words)**: Given a context, predict the target word.
In this lab, we use the skip-gram model to generate embeddings, as it generally provides better representations for smaller datasets.
---
This concludes the introduction part of the lab. In the next parts, we will build the AI language model using the generated word embeddings, train it on the prepared corpus, and evaluate its performance.
2. Prerequisites
Introduction to Linear Algebra Concepts: Vectors and Matrices
To effectively work with word embeddings and AI language models, it's essential to have a basic understanding of linear algebra concepts, specifically vectors and matrices. This introductory lesson will cover the fundamentals of these concepts, which are crucial for understanding and manipulating word embeddings.
1. Vectors
A vector is a mathematical object that has both magnitude and direction. In the context of natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning, vectors are used to represent words or other entities in a multi-dimensional space.
Example:
Consider a 2-dimensional vector representing a word:
w⃗=[2.5,3.0]\vec{w} = [2.5, 3.0]w=[2.5,3.0]
This vector has two components: 2.5 and 3.0.
∥v⃗∥=v12+v22+⋯+vn2\|\vec{v}\| = \sqrt{v_1^2 + v_2^2 + \cdots + v_n^2}∥v∥=v12+v22+⋯+vn2
Example:
For w⃗=[2.5,3.0]\vec{w} = [2.5, 3.0]w=[2.5,3.0],
∥w⃗∥=2.52+3.02=6.25+9=15.25≈3.91\|\vec{w}\| = \sqrt{2.5^2 + 3.0^2} = \sqrt{6.25 + 9} = \sqrt{15.25} \approx 3.91∥w∥=2.52+3.02=6.25+9=15.25≈3.91
a⃗⋅b⃗=a1b1+a2b2+⋯+anbn\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = a_1b_1 + a_2b_2 + \cdots + a_nb_na⋅b=a1b1+a2b2+⋯+anbn
Example:
For a⃗=[1,2]\vec{a} = [1, 2]a=[1,2] and b⃗=[3,4]\vec{b} = [3, 4]b=[3,4],
a⃗⋅b⃗=1⋅3+2⋅4=3+8=11\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 1 \cdot 3 + 2 \cdot 4 = 3 + 8 = 11a⋅b=1⋅3+2⋅4=3+8=11
2. Matrices
A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in rows and columns. Matrices are used extensively in machine learning for various operations, including transformations and representing datasets.
Example:
Consider a 2x3 matrix:
A=[123456]\mathbf{A} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \end{bmatrix}A=[142536]
C=A+B ⟹ cij=aij+bij\mathbf{C} = \mathbf{A} + \mathbf{B} \implies c_{ij} = a_{ij} + b_{ij}C=A+B⟹cij=aij+bij
Example:
A=[123456],B=[789101112]\mathbf{A} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \end{bmatrix}, \quad \mathbf{B} = \begin{bmatrix} 7 & 8 & 9 \\ 10 & 11 & 12 \end{bmatrix}A=[142536],B=[710811912] C=A+B=[1+72+83+94+105+116+12]=[81012141618]\mathbf{C} = \mathbf{A} + \mathbf{B} = \begin{bmatrix} 1+7 & 2+8 & 3+9 \\ 4+10 & 5+11 & 6+12 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 8 & 10 & 12 \\ 14 & 16 & 18 \end{bmatrix}C=A+B=[1+74+102+85+113+96+12]=[81410161218]
C=AB ⟹ cij=∑k=1naikbkj\mathbf{C} = \mathbf{A} \mathbf{B} \implies c_{ij} = \sum_{k=1}^n a_{ik} b_{kj}C=AB⟹cij=k=1∑naikbkj
Example:
A=[1234],B=[5678]\mathbf{A} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \\ 3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}, \quad \mathbf{B} = \begin{bmatrix} 5 & 6 \\ 7 & 8 \end{bmatrix}A=[1324],B=[5768] C=AB=[1⋅5+2⋅71⋅6+2⋅83⋅5+4⋅73⋅6+4⋅8]=[19224350]\mathbf{C} = \mathbf{A} \mathbf{B} = \begin{bmatrix} 1\cdot5 + 2\cdot7 & 1\cdot6 + 2\cdot8 \\ 3\cdot5 + 4\cdot7 & 3\cdot6 + 4\cdot8 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 19 & 22 \\ 43 & 50 \end{bmatrix}C=AB=[1⋅5+2⋅73⋅5+4⋅71⋅6+2⋅83⋅6+4⋅8]=[19432250]
3. Application in Word Embeddings
Example:
If we have a vocabulary of 10,000 words and we want to represent each word with a 100-dimensional vector, our embedding matrix E\mathbf{E}E would be of size 10,000×10010,000 \times 10010,000×100.
By understanding these basic concepts of vectors and matrices, you will be better equipped to grasp how word embeddings work and how they are used in AI language models. This foundational knowledge will also help you understand the various mathematical operations involved in training and evaluating these models.

8. Building the AI Language Model
import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Embedding, LSTM, Dense
model = Sequential()
model.add(Embedding(input_dim=len(word2vec_model.wv), output_dim=100, weights=[word2vec_model.wv.vectors], trainable=False))
model.add(LSTM(128, return_sequences=True))
model.add(LSTM(128))

9. Training the Language Model
python
Copy code
def create_sequences(token_list, step=1):
sequences = []
next_words = []
for i in range(0, len(token_list) - step, step):
sequences.append(token_list[i: i + step])
next_words.append(token_list[i + step])
return sequences, next_words
sequences, next_words = create_sequences(words, step=5)
model.fit(sequences, next_words, epochs=20, batch_size=128)
The error you're encountering is due to a mismatch in the shapes of the target (`next_words`) and the output of the model.
This is because `next_words` is a single integer representing the index of the next word, while the model's output is a one-hot encoded vector of probabilities for each word in the vocabulary.
To fix this, you need to:
1. One-hot encode the `next_words`.
2. Ensure the input sequences are padded to the same length.
Here's the corrected code:
```python
import numpy as np
from tensorflow.keras.preprocessing.sequence import pad_sequences
from tensorflow.keras.utils import to_categorical
# Define parameters
vocab_size = len(word2vec_model.wv)
max_sequence_len = 5 # length of input sequences
# Function to create input-output pairs from the preprocessed text
def create_sequences(token_list, step=1):
sequences = []
next_words = []
for i in range(0, len(token_list) - step, step):
sequences.append(token_list[i: i + step])
next_words.append(token_list[i + step])
return sequences, next_words
# Create sequences and next words
sequences, next_words = create_sequences(words, step=max_sequence_len)
# Pad sequences to ensure uniform input shape
sequences = pad_sequences(sequences, maxlen=max_sequence_len, padding='pre')
# One-hot encode the target words
next_words = to_categorical(next_words, num_classes=vocab_size)
# Define the model
model = Sequential()
model.add(Embedding(input_dim=vocab_size, output_dim=100, weights=[word2vec_model.wv.vectors], trainable=False, input_length=max_sequence_len))
model.add(LSTM(128, return_sequences=True))
model.add(LSTM(128))
model.add(Dense(vocab_size, activation='softmax'))
model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer='adam', metrics=['accuracy'])
# Train the model
model.fit(sequences, next_words, epochs=20, batch_size=128)
```
### Explanation
1. **Creating Sequences**:
- We create sequences of length `max_sequence_len` and corresponding next words.
- `sequences` is a list of word indices representing the input sequence.
- `next_words` is a list of word indices representing the next word for each input sequence.
2. **Padding Sequences**:
- `pad_sequences` ensures all input sequences have the same length, `max_sequence_len`.
3. **One-hot Encoding**:
- `to_categorical` converts the list of next word indices into one-hot encoded vectors, making them compatible with the model's output shape.
4. **Defining the Model**:
- The model includes an embedding layer, LSTM layers, and a dense output layer with a softmax activation function.
- The embedding layer uses the pre-trained word vectors from the Word2Vec model.
5. **Training the Model**:
- The model is compiled with `categorical_crossentropy` loss and trained on the sequences and one-hot encoded next words.
This setup should resolve the shape mismatch error and allow the model to train correctly.
— corrected code:
The error you're encountering is because the sequences contain words instead of their corresponding indices. We need to convert the words into indices that the embedding layer can understand.
Here's the step-by-step approach to fix the issue:
Create a word index dictionary to map words to their indices.
Convert sequences of words to sequences of indices.
Pad the sequences to ensure uniform input shape.
One-hot encode the target words.
Explanation
Word Index Dictionary:
A dictionary word_index is created to map each word to its corresponding index.
Convert Words to Indices:
The sequences of words are converted to sequences of indices using the word_index dictionary.
Pad Sequences:
pad_sequences ensures all input sequences have the same length (max_sequence_len).
One-hot Encoding:
to_categorical converts the list of next word indices into one-hot encoded vectors, making them compatible with the model's output shape.
Model Definition and Training:
The model includes an embedding layer, LSTM layers, and a dense output layer with a softmax activation function.
The embedding layer uses the pre-trained word vectors from the Word2Vec model.
The model is compiled with categorical_crossentropy loss and trained on the sequences and one-hot encoded next words.
This setup should now work correctly, allowing the model to train without any shape mismatch errors.
what does one-hot encode mean
One-hot encoding is a process used to convert categorical data into a numerical format that can be used by machine learning algorithms. This encoding technique represents each category as a binary vector, where only one element is "hot" (set to 1) and all other elements are "cold" (set to 0).
Example
Let's consider a simple example to illustrate one-hot encoding. Suppose we have three categories: "cat", "dog", and "fish". We want to convert these categories into a numerical format.
