class flair.models.SpanClassifier(embeddings, label_dictionary, pooling_operation='first_last', label_type='nel', candidates=None, **classifierargs)View on GitHub #

Bases: DefaultClassifier[Sentence, Span]

Entity Linking Model.

The model expects text/sentences with annotated entity mentions and predicts entities to these mentions. To this end a word embedding is used to embed the sentences and the embedding of the entity mention goes through a linear layer to get the actual class label. The model is able to predict ‘<unk>’ for entity mentions that the model can not confidently match to any of the known labels.

__init__(embeddings, label_dictionary, pooling_operation='first_last', label_type='nel', candidates=None, **classifierargs)View on GitHub #

Initializes an EntityLinker.

Parameters:

embeddings (TokenEmbeddings) – embeddings used to embed the tokens of the sentences.
label_dictionary (Dictionary) – dictionary that gives ids to all classes. Should contain <unk>.
pooling_operation (str) – either average, first, last or first_last. Specifies the way of how text representations of entity mentions (with more than one token) are handled. E.g. average means that as text representation we take the average of the embeddings of the token in the mention. first_last concatenates the embedding of the first and the embedding of the last token.
label_type (str) – name of the label you use.
candidates (Optional[CandidateGenerator]) – If provided, use a CandidateGenerator for prediction candidates.
**classifierargs – The arguments propagated to flair.nn.DefaultClassifier.__init__()

Initializes a Lemmatizer model.

The model consists of a decoder and an encoder. The encoder is either a RNN-cell (torch.nn.GRU) or a Token-Embedding from flair if an embedding is handed to the constructor (token_embedding). The output of the encoder is used as the initial hidden state to the decoder, which is an RNN-cell (GRU) that predicts the lemma of the given token one letter at a time. Note that one can use data in which only those words are annotated that differ from their lemma or data in which all words are annotated with a (maybe equal) lemma.

Parameters:

encode_characters (bool) – If True, use a character embedding to additionally encode tokens per character.
start_symbol_for_encoding (bool) – If True, use a start symbol for encoding characters.
end_symbol_for_encoding (bool) – If True, use an end symbol for encoding characters.
bidirectional_encoding (bool) – If True, the character encoding is bidirectional.
embeddings (Optional[TokenEmbeddings]) – Embedding used to encode sentence
rnn_input_size (int) – Input size of the RNN(‘s). Each letter of a token is represented by a hot-one-vector over the given character dictionary. This vector is transformed to a input_size vector with a linear layer.
rnn_hidden_size (int) – size of the hidden state of the RNN(‘s).
rnn_layers (int) – Number of stacked RNN cells
beam_size (int) – Number of hypothesis used when decoding the output of the RNN. Only used in prediction.
char_dict (Union[str, Dictionary]) – Dictionary of characters the model is able to process. The dictionary must contain <unk> for the handling of unknown characters. If None, a standard dictionary will be loaded. One can either hand over a path to a dictionary or the dictionary itself.
label_type (str) – Name of the gold labels to use.
max_sequence_length_dependent_on_input (bool) – If set to True, the maximum length of a decoded sequence in the prediction depends on the sentences you want to lemmatize. To be precise the maximum length is computed as the length of the longest token in the sentences plus one.
max_sequence_length (int) – If set to True and max_sequence_length_dependend_on_input is False a fixed maximum length for the decoding will be used for all sentences.
use_attention (bool) – whether to use attention. Only sensible if encoding via RNN

property label_type#: Each model predicts labels of a certain type.

words_to_char_indices(tokens, end_symbol=True, start_symbol=False, padding_in_front=False, seq_length=None)View on GitHub #

Each string is represented by sequence_length (maximum string length + entries for special symbol) many indices representing characters in self.char_dict. One can manually set the vector length with the parameter seq_length, though the vector length is always at least maximum string length in the list.

Parameters:

seq_length – the maximum sequence length to use, if None the maximum is taken..
tokens (List[str]) – the texts of the toekens to encode
end_symbol – add self.end_index at the end of each representation

class flair.models.RelationClassifier(embeddings, label_dictionary, label_type, entity_label_types, entity_pair_labels=None, entity_threshold=None, cross_augmentation=True, encoding_strategy=<flair.models.relation_classifier_model.TypedEntityMarker object>, zero_tag_value='O', allow_unk_tag=True, **classifierargs)View on GitHub #

Bases: DefaultClassifier[EncodedSentence, EncodedSentence]

Relation Classifier to predict the relation between two entities.

Task#

Relation Classification (RC) is the task of identifying the semantic relation between two entities in a text. In contrast to (end-to-end) Relation Extraction (RE), RC requires pre-labelled entities.

Example:#

For the founded_by relation from ORG (head) to PER (tail) and the sentence “Larry Page and Sergey Brin founded Google .”, we extract the relations - founded_by(head=’Google’, tail=’Larry Page’) and - founded_by(head=’Google’, tail=’Sergey Brin’).

Architecture#

The Relation Classifier Model builds upon a text classifier. The model generates an encoded sentence for each entity pair in the cross product of all entities in the original sentence. In the encoded representation, the entities in the current entity pair are masked/marked with control tokens. (For an example, see the docstrings of different encoding strategies, e.g. TypedEntityMarker.) Then, for each encoded sentence, the model takes its document embedding and puts the resulting text representation(s) through a linear layer to get the class relation label.

The implemented encoding strategies are taken from this paper by Zhou et al.: https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.01373

Warning

Currently, the model has no multi-label support.

__init__(embeddings, label_dictionary, label_type, entity_label_types, entity_pair_labels=None, entity_threshold=None, cross_augmentation=True, encoding_strategy=<flair.models.relation_classifier_model.TypedEntityMarker object>, zero_tag_value='O', allow_unk_tag=True, **classifierargs)View on GitHub #

Initializes a RelationClassifier.

Parameters:

embeddings (DocumentEmbeddings) – The document embeddings used to embed each sentence
label_dictionary (Dictionary) – A Dictionary containing all predictable labels from the corpus
label_type (str) – The label type which is going to be predicted, in case a corpus has multiple annotations
entity_label_types (Union[str, Sequence[str], Dict[str, Optional[Set[str]]]]) – A label type or sequence of label types of the required relation entities. You can also specify a label filter in a dictionary with the label type as key and the valid entity labels as values in a set. E.g. to use only ‘PER’ and ‘ORG’ labels from a NER-tagger: {‘ner’: {‘PER’, ‘ORG’}}. To use all labels from ‘ner’, pass ‘ner’.
entity_pair_labels (Optional[Set[Tuple[str, str]]]) – A set of valid relation entity pair combinations, used as relation candidates. Specify valid entity pairs in a set of tuples of labels (<HEAD>, <TAIL>). E.g. for the born_in relation, only relations from ‘PER’ to ‘LOC’ make sense. Here, relations from ‘PER’ to ‘PER’ are not meaningful, so it is advised to specify the entity_pair_labels as {(‘PER’, ‘ORG’)}. This setting may help to reduce the number of relation candidates. Leaving this parameter as None (default) disables the relation-candidate-filter, i.e. the model classifies the relation for each entity pair in the cross product of all entity pairs (inefficient).
entity_threshold (Optional[float]) – Only pre-labelled entities above this threshold are taken into account by the model.
cross_augmentation (bool) – If True, use cross augmentation to transform Sentence`s into `EncodedSentenece`s. When cross augmentation is enabled, the transformation functions, e.g. `transform_corpus, generate an encoded sentence for each entity pair in the cross product of all entities in the original sentence. When disabling cross augmentation, the transform functions only generate encoded sentences for each gold relation annotation in the original sentence.
encoding_strategy (EncodingStrategy) – An instance of a class conforming the EncodingStrategy protocol
zero_tag_value (str) – The label to use for out-of-class relations
allow_unk_tag (bool) – If False, removes <unk> from the passed label dictionary, otherwise do nothing.
classifierargs – The remaining parameters passed to the underlying flair.models.DefaultClassifier

class flair.models.RegexpTagger(mapping)View on GitHub #

Bases: object

__init__(mapping)View on GitHub #

This tagger is capable of tagging sentence objects with given regexp -> label mappings.

I.e: The tuple (r’([”'])(?:(?=(\?))2.)*?1’, ‘QUOTE’) maps every match of the regexp to a <QUOTE> labeled span and therefore labels the given sentence object with RegexpTagger.predict(). This tagger supports multilabeling so tokens can be included in multiple labeled spans. The regexp are compiled internally and an re.error will be raised if the compilation of a given regexp fails.

If a match violates (in this case overlaps) a token span, an exception is raised.
