Automatic query correction & completion project

Description

Define a baseline for query correction

  • tokenize text into words (use spacy or a "naive" tokenization)
  • use an existing tool for isolated non-word detection and correction (e.g. hunspell)
  • rerank candidates by using a probabilistic n-gram language model (LM)

Usage

Process wikipedia dumps

Complete process to

  • download a .bz2 wikipedia dump file
  • decompress the archive
  • extract plain text from wikipedia xml file (using the WikiExtractor.py script)
  • split text into sentences and preprocess them
    • lowercase text
    • remove digits
    • remove punctuation marks
    • remove non Latin characters
    • [FIXME]: uses the external regex library, therefore it's quite slow
  • count the number of occurrences of tokens (words and characters)
  • plot the count and coverage of tokens with respect to a minimum number of occurrences filter
  • filter the list of words with respect to their number of occurrences

As a result, this process allows us to define

  • a word vocabulary
  • the textual corpus needed to train a n-gram LM
$ scripts/prepare_wikipedia -h
usage: prepare_wikipedia [-h] conf

Download, decompress, extract and clean wikipedia dump data

positional arguments:
    conf        input config file (yml)

optional arguments:
    -h, --help  show this help message and exit

Train n-gram language models

Use the SRILM toolkit to

  • generate n-gram counts based on a word vocabulary and a sentence-per-line corpus
  • estimate an open-class language model using the modified Knesser-Ney smoothing technnique

The resulting language model will allow us to compute the log-probability of a sequence of words.

$ scripts/train_ngram_lm -h
Objective: train a probabilistic n-gram language model

Usage:   scripts/train_ngram_lm <yaml_config_file>
Example: scripts/train_ngram_lm conf/model/config_train_lm_wiki-fr.yml

Build the trie-based version of the SRILM language model

The code was inspired from the PyNLPl library.

Did not use it directly because

  • of the long load time
  • of the large memory usage (class within a class)
  • it always expects an ARPA model (large file, slow parsing)
  • it doesn't allow saving the model in a binary file and reloading it from there
  • it doesn't handle correctly the start-of-sentence token (prob=-99)
$ scripts/change_lm_format -h
usage: change_lm_format [-h] conf

Change format of n-gram LM

positional arguments:
  conf        input config file (yml)

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit

Set up the process for the 1st baseline

Use 3 sources

  • a spacy NLP model
    • tokenize text
    • detect named entities
    • detect {numbers, urls, emails, punctuation}-like tokens
  • the hunspell spell-checker
    • detect misspelled words
    • generate candidate corrections (valid words within small edit-distances)
    • requires two files (available sources)
  • the trie-based n-gram language model
    • re-rank the out-of-context corrections generated by hunspell
    • prioritize the more likely sequences of words
$ scripts/run_baseline_1 -h
usage: run_baseline_1 [-h] conf

Tokenize, detect, correct and rerank corrections

positional arguments:
  conf        input config file (yml)

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
