Installation

To install directly:

pip install entropyrank

To install from repository, from src/entropyrank run:

pip install -r requirements.txt

You also need to download the 'en_core_web_sm' model for spaCy, which can be done by running:

spacy download en_core_web_sm

Usage

To use the package, import EntropyRank from the module and create an instance of it:

from entropyrank import EntropyRank

extractor = EntropyRank()

Then, you can extract key phrases from a given text using the extract_key_phrases method:

phrases = extractor.extract_key_phrases(
    text=text,
    number_of_key_phrases=3,
)

The parameters of the extract_key_phrases method are:

• text: the input text to extract key phrases from.
• number_of_key_phrases: the number of key phrases to extract.
• exclude_start_words_count: the number of words to exclude from the start of each key phrase when calculating its entropy.
• partition_method: can be STOP_WORDS or NOUN_PHRASES, decides how to partition the candidates.
• ranking_method: can be FIRST_WORD_ENTROPY or SUM_ENTROPY, whether to use the sum of entropy of the phrase or just the entropy of the first word
• normalize_by_word_statistics: a boolean indicating whether we want to normalize the entropy values by entropy statistics of word position.
• remove_personal_names: a boolean indicating whether to remove personal names from the evaluations or not.

Evaluation Demo

You can run the evaluation_demo notebook included in this repository under src/eval to get the benchmark results on common key phrase extraction tasks reported in the paper. Make sure to run pip install -r evaluation-requirements.txt beforehand
