Overview

This assignment will be different from the two previous ones. Due to memory and time constraints of this environment you will not be able to train a model and use it for inference. Instead you will create the necessary building blocks for the transformer encoder model and will use a pretrained version of the same model in two ungraded labs after this assignment.

After completing these 3 (1 graded and 2 ungraded) labs you will:

• Implement the code neccesary for Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformer (BERT).

• Understand how the C4 dataset is structured.

• Use a pretrained model for inference.

• Understand how the "Text to Text Transfer from Transformers" or T5 model works.

Part 0: Importing the Packages

import ast
import string
import textwrap
import itertools
import numpy as np

import trax 
from trax import layers as tl
from trax.supervised import decoding

# Will come handy later.
wrapper = textwrap.TextWrapper(width=70)

# Set random seed

Part 1: C4 Dataset

The C4 is a huge data set. For the purpose of this assignment you will use a few examples out of it which are present in data.txt. C4 is based on the common crawl project. Feel free to read more on their website.

Run the cell below to see how the examples look like.

# load example jsons
example_jsons = list(map(ast.literal_eval, open('data.txt')))

# Printing the examples to see how the data looks like
for i in range(5):
    print(f'example number {i+1}: \n\n{example_jsons[i]} \n')

I\'ve done this several times going from larger HDD to smaller SSD and I wound up with a bootable SSD drive. One step you have to remember not to skip is to use Disk Utility to partition the SSD as GUID partition scheme HFS+ before doing the clone. If it came Apple Partition Scheme, even if you let CCC do the clone, the resulting drive won\'t be bootable. CCC usually works in "file mode" and it can easily copy a larger drive (that\'s mostly empty) onto a smaller drive. If you tell CCC to clone a drive you did NOT boot from, it can work in block copy mode where the destination drive must be the same size or larger than the drive you are cloning from (if I recall).\nI\'ve actually done this somehow on Disk Utility several times (booting from a different drive (or even the dvd) so not running disk utility from the drive your cloning) and had it work just fine from larger to smaller bootable clone. Definitely format the drive cloning to first, as bootable Apple etc..\nThanks for pointing this out. My only experience using DU to go larger to smaller was when I was trying to make a Lion install stick and I was unable to restore InstallESD.dmg to a 4 GB USB stick but of course the reason that wouldn\'t fit is there was slightly more than 4 GB of data.', 'timestamp': b'2019-04-21T10:07:13Z', 'url': b'https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/restore-from-larger-disk-to-smaller-disk.1311329/'}

Notice the b before each string? This means that this data comes as bytes rather than strings. Strings are actually lists of bytes so for the rest of the assignments the name strings will be used to describe the data.

To check this run the following cell:

type(example_jsons[0].get('text'))

bytes

1.1 Pre-Training Objective

Note: The word "mask" will be used throughout this assignment in context of hiding/removing word(s)

You will be implementing the BERT loss as shown in the following image.

Assume you have the following text: Thank you for inviting me to your party last week

Now as input you will mask the words in red in the text:

Input: Thank you X me to your party Y week.

Output: The model should predict the words(s) for X and Y.

Z is used to represent the end.

1.2 Process C4

C4 only has the plain string text field, so you will tokenize and have inputs and targets out of it for supervised learning. Given your inputs, the goal is to predict the targets during training.

You will now take the text and convert it to inputs and targets.

# Grab text field from dictionary
natural_language_texts = [example_json['text'] for example_json in example_jsons]

# First text example
natural_language_texts[4]

1.2.1 Decode to natural language

The following functions will help you detokenize andtokenize the text data.

The sentencepiece vocabulary was used to convert from text to ids. This vocabulary file is loaded and used in this helper functions.

natural_language_texts has the text from the examples we gave you.

Run the cells below to see what is going on.

# Special tokens

    return trax.data.detokenize(
        np_array,

        vocab_dir='.')

def tokenize(s):
  # The trax.data.tokenize function operates on streams,
  # that's why we have to create 1-element stream with iter
  # and later retrieve the result with next.

# We can see that detokenize successfully undoes the tokenization
print(f"tokenized: {tokenize('Beginners')}\ndetokenized: {detokenize(tokenize('Beginners'))}")

tokenized: [12847   277]
detokenized: Beginners

As you can see above, you were able to take a piece of string and tokenize it.

Now you will create input and target pairs that will allow you to train your model. T5 uses the ids at the end of the vocab file as sentinels. For example, it will replace:

• vocab_size - 1 by <Z>

• vocab_size - 2 by <Y>

• and so forth.

It assigns every word a chr.

The pretty_decode function below, which you will use in a bit, helps in handling the type when decoding. Take a look and try to understand what the function is doing.

Notice that:

string.ascii_letters = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'

NOTE: Targets may have more than the 52 sentinels we replace, but this is just to give you an idea of things.

vocab_size = trax.data.vocab_size(
    vocab_type='sentencepiece',
    vocab_file='sentencepiece.model',
    vocab_dir='.')

def get_sentinels(vocab_size=vocab_size, display=False):
    sentinels = {}
    for i, char in enumerate(reversed(string.ascii_letters), 1):
        decoded_text = detokenize([vocab_size - i]) 
        
        # Sentinels, ex: <Z> - <a>
        sentinels[decoded_text] = f'<{char}>'    
    
        if display:
            print(f'The sentinel is <{char}> and the decoded token is:', decoded_text)

    return sentinels

    if isinstance(encoded_str_list, (str, bytes)):

    return pretty_decode(detokenize(encoded_str_list))

pretty_decode("I want to dress up as an Intellectual this halloween.")

'I want to dress up as an <V> this <b>.'

The functions above make your inputs and targets more readable. For example, you might see something like this once you implement the masking function below.

• Input sentence: Younes and Lukasz were working together in the lab yesterday after lunch.

• Input: Younes and Lukasz Z together in the Y yesterday after lunch.

• Target: Z were working Y lab.

1.3 Tokenizing and Masking

You will now implement the tokenize_and_mask function. This function will allow you to tokenize and mask input words with a noise probability. We usually mask 15% of the words.

Part 2: Transfomer

We now load a Transformer model checkpoint that has been pre-trained using the above C4 dataset and decode from it. This will save you a lot of time rather than have to train your model yourself. Later in this notebook, we will show you how to fine-tune your model.

Start by loading in the model. We copy the checkpoint to local dir for speed, otherwise initialization takes a very long time. Last week you implemented the decoder part for the transformer. Now you will implement the encoder part. Concretely you will implement the following.

2.1 Transformer Encoder

You will now implement the transformer encoder. Concretely you will implement two functions. The first function is FeedForwardBlock.

2.1.1 The Feedforward Block

The FeedForwardBlock function is an important one so you will start by implementing it. To do so, you need to return a list of the following:

• tl.LayerNorm() = layer normalization.

• tl.Dense(d_ff) = fully connected layer.

• activation = activation relu, tanh, sigmoid etc.

• dropout_middle = we gave you this function (don't worry about its implementation).

• tl.Dense(d_model) = fully connected layer with same dimension as the model.

• dropout_final = we gave you this function (don't worry about its implementation).

You can always take a look at trax documentation if needed.

Instructions: Implement the feedforward part of the transformer. You will be returning a list.

Exercise 02

        d_ff: int: depth of feed-forward layer
        dropout: float: dropout rate (how much to drop out)
        dropout_shared_axes: list of integers, axes to share dropout mask
        mode: str: 'train' or 'eval'
        activation: the non-linearity in feed-forward layer

    """
    
    dropout_middle = tl.Dropout(rate=dropout,
                                shared_axes=dropout_shared_axes,

# Print the block layout
feed_forward_example = FeedForwardBlock(d_model=512, d_ff=2048, dropout=0.8, dropout_shared_axes=0, mode = 'train', activation = tl.Relu)
print(feed_forward_example)

[LayerNorm, Dense_2048, Relu, Dropout, Dense_512, Dropout]

Expected Output:

 [LayerNorm, Dense_2048, Relu, Dropout, Dense_512, Dropout]

2.1.2 The Encoder Block

The encoder block will use the FeedForwardBlock.

You will have to build two residual connections. Inside the first residual connection you will have the tl.layerNorm(), attention, and dropout_ layers. The second residual connection will have the feed_forward.

You will also need to implement feed_forward, attention and dropout_ blocks.

So far you haven't seen the tl.Attention() and tl.Residual() layers so you can check the docs by clicking on them.

2.1.3 The Transformer Encoder

Now that you have implemented the EncoderBlock, it is time to build the full encoder. BERT, or Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers is one such encoder.

You will implement its core code in the function below by using the functions you have coded so far.

The model takes in many hyperparameters, such as the vocab_size, the number of classes, the dimension of your model, etc. You want to build a generic function that will take in many parameters, so you can use it later. At the end of the day, anyone can just load in an API and call transformer, but we think it is important to make sure you understand how it is built. Let's get started.

Instructions: For this encoder you will need a positional_encoder first (which is already provided) followed by n_layers encoder blocks, which are the same encoder blocks you previously built. Once you store the n_layers EncoderBlock in a list, you are going to encode a Serial layer with the following sublayers:

• tl.Branch: helps with the branching and has the following sublayers:

  • positional_encoder.

  • tl.PaddingMask(): layer that maps integer sequences to padding masks.

• Your list of EncoderBlocks

• tl.Select([0], n_in=2): Copies, reorders, or deletes stack elements according to indices.

• tl.LayerNorm().

• tl.Mean(): Mean along the first axis.

• tl.Dense() with n_units set to n_classes.

• tl.LogSoftmax()

Please refer to the trax documentation for further information.
