Installing

Requires Python 3.6.1 or greater.

pip install fiesta-nlp

Experiments in the paper

NER experiments

The code used to create the NER results can be founder here with all of the instructions on:

1. How the data was split.
2. How to re-run the models.
3. How the images in the paper were created.
4. Links to all of the original F1 results and data splits.

Target Dependent Sentiment Analysis experiments

The 500 Macro F1 results from the 12 different TDSA models can be found within test_f1.json file. For replication purposes we have created a Google Colab notebook which can be found here that shows how the results from the paper can be replicated. Further more this notebook is a good example of how to use the fiesta library when you already have results and do not need to evaluate any modles.
