Fine_tune_BERT_with_spacy3

This is the code to reproduce the results shown in tutorial: https://towardsdatascience.com/how-to-fine-tune-bert-transformer-with-spacy-3-6a90bfe57647

First we convert the IOB file exported from the UBIAI annotation tool to spacy JSON:

!python -m spacy convert drive/MyDrive/train.tsv ./ -t json -n 1 -c iob
!python -m spacy convert drive/MyDrive/test.tsv ./ -t json -n 1 -c iob

After converting the training and dev files to JSON file, we need to convert them to spacy binary file:

!python -m spacy convert drive/MyDrive/train.json ./ -t spacy
!python -m spacy convert drive/MyDrive/test.json ./ -t spacy

Next we install spacy and transformer library pipeline:

pip install -U spacy
!python -m spacy download en_core_web_trf

Next we install the cuda:

!wget https://developer.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/9.2/Prod/local_installers/cuda-repo-ubuntu1604-9-2-local_9.2.88-1_amd64 -O cuda-repo-ubuntu1604-9-2-local_9.2.88-1_amd64.deb
!dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu1604-9-2-local_9.2.88-1_amd64.deb
!apt-key add /var/cuda-repo-9-2-local/7fa2af80.pub
!apt-get update
!apt-get install cuda-9.2

Install pytorch:

pip install torch==1.7.1+cu92 torchvision==0.8.2+cu92 torchaudio==0.7.2 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html

Install spacy and transformer packages:

!export CUDA_PATH="/usr/local/cuda-9.2"
!pip install -U spacy[cuda92,transformers]

Install cupy

!pip install cupy

Set the cuda path

!export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$CUDA_PATH/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

After updating the spacy config.cfg file with the training and test paths, we auto-fill the config file with the rest of the parameters that the BERT model will need

!python -m spacy init fill-config drive/MyDrive/config.cfg drive/MyDrive/config_spacy.cfg

Before launching the training, lets debug the config file to make sure everything is correct:

!python -m spacy debug data drive/MyDrive/config.cfg

Finally, we are ready to start the training:

!python -m spacy train -g 0 drive/MyDrive/config.cfg — output ./

After training, the model will be saved in a folder named model-best. Lets try to extract entities using the newly trained model:

nlp = spacy.load(“./model-best”)
