Requirements:

# Python 3.6
# Tensorflow 1.9.0 resource: https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple/tensorflow/
$ pip3 install <path>\tensorflow-1.9.0-cp36-cp36-win_amd64.whl
$ pip3 install sklearn scipy nltk

In model.py, get_ramdom_k_embed function is to generate random k tokens for loss calculation, embed_loss_fn is to calculate embedding loss value, predict_dp_two_sets is to generate differentially private text through two-set exponential mechanism.
