Deep Averaging Networks (DAN)

code for model described in http://cs.umd.edu/~miyyer/pubs/2015_acl_dan.pdf along with negation dataset (negation_dataset.txt). feel free to email me at miyyer@umd.edu with any comments/problems/questions/suggestions.

dependencies:

  • python 2.7.9, numpy 1.9.2 (might work w/ other versions but not tested), nltk

commands to run DAN on Stanford Sentiment Treebank:

  • bash run.sh (downloads word embeddings and dataset, preprocesses PTB trees into DAN format)
  • python dan_sentiment.py (can tweak hyperparameters via command-line arguments, currently this runs the fine-grained experiment on only root-level labels and should take a few minutes to finish training)
  • other sentiment experiments and QA code coming soon!

DAN input format (for your own data!):

  • each training/test instance must be a tuple with the following format: ([list of word embedding lookup indices associated with text], label)
  • if you want to use pretrained word embeddings, you should also pass a pickled matrix using the --We argument, where the matrix is of size d x V (each column stores the embedding for the corresponding word lookup index)

important hyperparameters:

  • batch size (the smaller the better, but also slower)
  • adagrad initial learning rate (should be decreased as the batch size is decreased)
  • word dropout probability (30% is the default but might be too high for some tasks)
  • number of epochs (increase when using random initialization)
