This project is carried out for the purpose of building upon a machine learning model for generating of review for hotels.
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Python distribution
Anaconda
Install Anaconda python distribution on your system
Create a virtual environment called env.
python -m venv env
Activate the virtual environment
LINUX/Mac: source env/bin/activate
Windows: env\Scripts\activate
Upgrade to the latest pip
pip3 install --upgrade pip3
Install other python packages/dependencies using the requirement file:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Note: Your virtual environment must always be activated before running any of the command
The above steps can also be done in a virtual environment using tools such as virtualenv.
Install tensorflow 1.12 (with GPU support, if you have a GPU and want everything to run faster)
pip3 install tensorflow==1.12.0
or
pip3 install tensorflow-gpu==1.12.0
Download the model data
sh download_model.sh 117M
117M is just a default name for the model
Some of the examples below may include Unicode text characters. Set the environment variable:
export PYTHONIOENCODING=UTF-8
to override the standard stream settings in UTF-8 mode.
These are some command options in full:
A command line utility for hotel review generation.
---------------------------------------------------
These are common commands for this app.
optional arguments:
--help this show help message and exit
--stop_after you specify when to stop. This is only useful when training
--learning_rate you specify your learning rate. There is a default of 0.001. Though this model was trained with 0.0001
--model_name string, which model to use. Though there is a default of `117M`
--seed seed for random number generators, fix seed to reproduce results. Default=None
--nsamples Number of samples to return, if 0, continues to generate samples indefinately. Default = 1
--batch_size Number of batches (only affects speed/memory). Default = 1
--length Number of tokens in generated text, if None (default), is determined by model hyperparameters.
--temperature Float value controlling randomness in boltzmann distribution. Lower temperature results in less random completions. As the temperature approaches zero, the model will become deterministic and repetitive. Higher temperature results in more random completions. Default = 1
--top_k Integer value controlling diversity. 1 means only 1 word is considered for each step (token), resulting in deterministic completions, while 40 means 40 words are considered at each step. 0 (default) is a special setting meaning no restrictions. 40 generally is a good value.
Some of the above optional arguments are useful only when training while others are use when generating reviews.
To generate samples of review from the small model:
python3 src/generate_review.py
There are various flags for controlling the samples:
python3 src/generate_review.py --top_k 40 --temperature 0.7
To check flag descriptions, use:
python3 src/generate_review.py -- --help
To give the model custom prompts, you can use:
python3 src/interactive_generate_review.py --top_k 40
To check flag descriptions, use:
python3 src/interactive_generate_review.py -- --help
Train model with custom datasets
To retrain this model on a custom text dataset:
PYTHONPATH=src ./train.py --dataset /path/to/encoded.npz --sample_every=250 --learning_rate=0.0001 --stop_after=251
If you want to precompute the dataset's encoding for multiple runs, you can instead use:
PYTHONPATH=src ./encode.py <file|directory|glob> /path/to/encoded.npz
PYTHONPATH=src ./train --dataset /path/to/encoded.npz
Our model was trained using the recent OpenAI released model called, GPT-2. The model was trained on a dataset gotten from kaggle containing over 515k-hotel-reviews. The training was done on Google Colab using GPU. The training started with a loss of around 7.9 and it continue to drop even though it do rises atime; when the training was completed we have our loss at around 3.91.
Dataset
The dataset consists of columns positive and negative reviews each, so they were combined to form a single review. This pre-processing was done using the dataset_processor.py file, on the Hotel_Reviews.csv file gotten from unzipping the dataset.
We are still trying to improve on this model for better generated reviews.
