Usage

Its quite simple to use!

>>> from punctfix import PunctFixer
>>> fixer = PunctFixer(language="da")

>>> example_text = "mit navn det er rasmus og jeg kommer fra firmaet alvenir det er mig som har trænet denne lækre model"
>>> print(fixer.punctuate(example_text))
'Mit navn det er Rasmus og jeg kommer fra firmaet Alvenir. Det er mig som har trænet denne lækre model.'

>>> example_text = "en dag bliver vi sku glade for, at vi nu kan sætte punktummer og kommaer i en sætning det fungerer da meget godt ikke"
>>> print(fixer.punctuate(example_text)) 
'En dag bliver vi sku glade for, at vi nu kan sætte punktummer og kommaer i en sætning. Det fungerer da meget godt, ikke?' 

Note that, per default, the input text will be normalied. See next section for more details.

Parameters for PunctFixer

• Pass device="cuda" or device="cpu" to indicate where to run inference. Default is device="cpu"
• To handle long sequences, we use a chunk size and an overlap. These can be modified. For higher speed but lower acuracy use a chunk size of 150-200 and very little overlap i.e. 5-10. These parameters are set with default values word_chunk_size=100, word_overlap=70 which makes it run a bit slow. The default parameters will be updated when we have some results on variations.
• Supported languages are "en" for English, "da" for Danish and "de" for German. Default is language="da".
• Note that the fixer has been trained on normalized text (lowercase letters and numbers) and will per default normalize input text. You can instantiate the model with skip_normalization=True to disable this but this might yield errors on some input text.
• To raise warnings every time the input is normalied, set warn_on_normalization=True.
