🔮 weak-nlp

Intelligent information integration based on weak supervision Python 3.9 pypi 0.0.13

Installation

You can set up this library via either running $ pip install weak-nlp, or via cloning this repository and running $ pip install -r requirements.txt in your repository.

A sample installation would be:

$ conda create --name weak-nlp python=3.9
$ conda activate weak-nlp
$ pip install weak-nlp

Usage

The library consists of three main entities:

  • Associations: an association contains the information of one record <> label mapping. This does not have to be ground truth label for a given record, but can also come from e.g. a labelfunction (see below for an example).
  • Source vectors: A source vector combines the created associations from one logical source. Additionally, it marks whether the respective source vector can be seen as a reference vector, such as a manually labeled source vector containing the true record <> label mappings.
  • Noisy label matrices: Collection of source vectors that can be analyzed w.r.t. quality metrics (such as the confusion matrix, i.e., true positives etc.), quantity metrics (intersections and conflicts) or weakly supervisable labels.

The following is an example for building a noisy label matrix for a classification task

import weak_nlp

def contains_keywords(text):
    if any(term in text for term in ["val1", "val2", "val3"]):
        return "regular"

texts = [...]

lf_associations = []
for text_id, text in enumerate(texts):
    label = contains_keywords(text)
    if label is not None:
        association = weak_nlp.ClassificationAssociation(text_id + 1, label)
        lf_associations.append(association)

lf_vector = weak_nlp.SourceVector(contains_keywords.__name__, False, lf_associations)

ground_truths = [
    weak_nlp.ClassificationAssociation(1, "clickbait"),
    weak_nlp.ClassificationAssociation(2, "regular"),
    weak_nlp.ClassificationAssociation(3, "regular")
]

gt_vector = weak_nlp.SourceVector("ground_truths", True, ground_truths)

cnlm = weak_nlp.CNLM([gt_vector, lf_vector])

Whereas for extraction tasks, your code snippet could look as follows:

import weak_nlp

def match_keywords(text):
    for idx, token in enumerate(text.split()):
        if token in ["val1", "val2", "val3"]:
            yield "person", idx, idx+1 # label, from_idx, to_idx

texts = [...]

lf_associations = []
for text_id, text in enumerate(texts):
    for triplet in match_keywords(text):
        label, from_idx, to_idx = triplet
        association = weak_nlp.ExtractionAssociation(text_id + 1, label, from_idx, to_idx)
        lf_associations.append(association)

lf_vector = weak_nlp.SourceVector(match_keywords.__name__, False, lf_associations)

ground_truths = [
    weak_nlp.ExtractionAssociation(1, "person", 1, 2),
    weak_nlp.ExtractionAssociation(2, "person", 4, 5),
]

gt_vector = weak_nlp.SourceVector("ground_truths", True, ground_truths)

enlm = weak_nlp.ENLM([gt_vector, lf_vector])
