A Pipeline for Entity Recognition and Relation Extraction Written in Pytorch

A Pipeline for Entity Recognition and Relation Extraction Written in Pytorch

Main Requirements

• python 3.6
• pytorch 1.0
• bioc 1.0
• nltk 3.3
• numpy 1.15
• pandas 0.24

Models

Entity Recognition: BiLSTM-CRF

Relation Extraction: BiLSTM-Attention

Usage

1. Train the pipeline

python main.py -whattodo 1 -config default.config -output ./output -train_dir ./sample -dev_dir ./sample

• whattodo=1: train ner and re models
• config: configuration file
• output: directory of saved models
• train_dir: directory of training data
• dev_dir: directory of development data

2. Extracting entities and relations using existing models

python main.py -whattodo 2 -config default.config -output ./output -input ./input -predict ./predict

• whattodo=2: use existing models to extract entities and relations from raw text
• config: configuration file
• output: directory of saved models
• input: directory of raw text
• predict: directory of predicted results in the bioc-xml format

3. Retraining the pipeline based on existing models

python main.py -whattodo 1 -config default.config -output ./output -pretrained_model_dir ./pretrained -train_dir ./sample -dev_dir ./sample

• whattodo=1: train ner and re models
• config: configuration file
• output: directory of saved models
• pretrained_model_dir: directory of pretrained models, which are the models trained in Usage 1.
• train_dir: directory of training data
• dev_dir: directory of development data

ner_and_re_pipeline's Issues

bug求问

模型没改，data就用的sample下的示例，我想问下，出现了如下问题，求助一下。

文件bi'xu'shi必须是压缩文件吗，好奇怪

Can you provide a sample dataset, please? That will be better actually.

Thanks a lot.
