probability-of-a-word

Code to compute a word's probability using the fixes from "How to Compute the Probability of a Word"

Installation

You can install WordsProbability directly from PyPI:

pip install wordsprobability

Or from source:

git clone [e-mail]:tpimentelms/probability-of-a-word.git
cd probability-of-a-word
pip install -e .

WordsProbability has the following requirements:

• Pandas
• PyTorch
• Transformers

Usage

Basic Usage

Install this repository. Then run:

$ wordsprobability --model pythia-70m --input examples/abstract.txt --output temp.tsv

The input must be a txt file, with one sequence per line. The output will be a tsv file with a word per row with its respective computed surprisal and surprisal_fixed values. Currently, supported models are: pythia-70m, pythia-160m, pythia-410m, pythia-14b, pythia-28b, pythia-69b, pythia-120b, gpt-small, gpt-medium, gpt-large, gpt-xl.

Using in other Applications

Import wordsprobability in your application and get surprisals with:

    from wordsprobability import get_surprisal_per_word
    df = get_surprisal_per_word(text='Hello world! Who are you???\nWho am I?', model_name='pythia-70m')
