This tool provides an efficient implementation of the continuous bag-of-words and skip-gram architectures for computing vector representations of words. These representations can be subsequently used in many natural language processing applications and for further research.

word2vec

Original from https://code.google.com/p/word2vec/

I've copied it to a github project so I can apply and track community patches for my needs (starting with capability for Mac OS X compilation).

There seems to be a segfault in the compute-accuracy utility.

To get started:

cd scripts && ./demo-word.sh

Tools for computing distributed representation of words

We provide an implementation of the Continuous Bag-of-Words (CBOW) and the Skip-gram model (SG), as well as several demo scripts.

Given a text corpus, the word2vec tool learns a vector for every word in the vocabulary using the Continuous Bag-of-Words or the Skip-Gram neural network architectures. The user should to specify the following:

  • desired vector dimensionality
  • the size of the context window for either the Skip-Gram or the Continuous Bag-of-Words model
  • training algorithm: hierarchical softmax and / or negative sampling
  • threshold for downsampling the frequent words
  • number of threads to use
  • the format of the output word vector file (text or binary)

Usually, the other hyper-parameters such as the learning rate do not need to be tuned for different training sets.

The script demo-word.sh downloads a small (100MB) text corpus from the web, and trains a small word vector model. After the training is finished, the user can interactively explore the similarity of the words.

More information about the scripts is provided at https://code.google.com/p/word2vec/
