HuSpaCy: industrial strength Hungarian natural language processing

---

HuSpaCy is a spaCy library providing industrial-strength Hungarian language processing facilities through spaCy models. The released pipelines consist of a tokenizer, sentence splitter, lemmatizer, tagger (predicting morphological features as well), dependency parser and a named entity recognition module. Word and phrase embeddings are also available through spaCy's API. All models have high throughput, decent memory usage and close to state-of-the-art accuracy. A live demo is available here, model releases are published to Hugging Face Hub.

This repository contains material to build HuSpaCy and all of its models in a reproducible way.

Available Models

We provide several pretrained models, the (hu_core_news_lg) one is a CNN-based large model which achieves a good balance between accuracy and processing speed. This default model provides tokenization, sentence splitting, part-of-speech tagging (UD labels w/ detailed morphosyntactic features), lemmatization, dependency parsing and named entity recognition and ships with pretrained word vectors.

The second model (hu_core_news_trf) is built on huBERT and provides the same functionality as the large model except the word vectors. It comes with much higher accuracy in the price of increased computational resource usage. We suggest using it with GPU support.

The hu_core_news_md pipeline greatly improves on hu_core_news_lg's throughput by loosing some accuracy. This model could be a good choice when processing speed is crucial.

A demo of these models is available at Hugging Face Spaces. Models' changes are recorded in respective changelog files. (lg, md trf, vectors)

Installation

To get started using the tool, first, we need to download one of the models. The easiest way to achieve this is to install huspacy (from PyPI) and then fetch a model through its API.

pip install huspacy

import huspacy

# Download the latest CPU optimized model
huspacy.download()

You can install the latest models directly from 🤗 Hugging Face Hub:

• CPU optimized large model: pip install https://huggingface.co/huspacy/hu_core_news_lg/resolve/main/hu_core_news_lg-any-py3-none-any.whl
• GPU optimized transformers model: pip install https://huggingface.co/huspacy/hu_core_news_trf/resolve/main/hu_core_news_trf-any-py3-none-any.whl

To speed up inference on GPUs, CUDA should be installed as described in https://spacy.io/usage.

Usage

HuSpaCy is fully compatible with spaCy's API, newcomers can easily get started with spaCy 101 guide.

Although HuSpacy models can be loaded with spacy.load(...), the tool provides convenience methods to easily access downloaded models.

# Load the model using spacy.load(...)
import spacy
nlp = spacy.load("hu_core_news_lg")

# Load the default large model (if downloaded)
import huspacy
nlp = huspacy.load()

# Load the model directly as a module
import hu_core_news_lg
nlp = hu_core_news_lg.load()

# Process texts
doc = nlp("Csiribiri csiribiri zabszalma - négy csillag közt alszom ma.")

API Documentation is available in our website.

Development

Each model has its own dependency structure managed by poetry. For details check the models' readmes (lg, trf, vectors).
