This is a tensorflow implementation of the convolutional seq2seq model released by Facebook. This model is orignially written via Torch/Lua in Fairseq. Considering Lua is not that popular as python in the industry and research community, I re-implemente this model with Tensorflow/Python after carefully reading the paper details and Torch/Lua codebase.
This implementation is based on the framework of Google seq2seq project, which has a detailed documentation on how to use this framework. In this conv seq2seq project, I implement the conv encoder, conv decoder, and attention mechanism, as well as other modules needed by the conv seq2seq model, which is not available in the original seq2seq project.
- Python 2.7.0+
- Tensorflow 1.0+ (this version is strictly required)
- and their dependencies
Please follow seq2seq project on how to install the Convolutional Sequence to Sequence Learning project.
For dataset, please follow seq2seq nmt guides to prepare your dataset
The following is an example of how to run iwslt de-en translation task.
