Setup Instructions

1) Clone repo

git clone [email protected]:andrewdblevins/beyond_word2vec.git

once you clone this repo, you can follow along these instructions in this notebook

2) Python Installs:

Please note, that we'll need several packages installed on your laptop.

If you have python, gensim and keras installed on your laptop you are probably good to go.

If you haven't performed installs yet, here are some steps to follow:

I generally recommend using the anaconda package

Create a conda environment:

conda create -n beyondw2v python=3    
source activate beyondw2v
conda install anaconda     

Then install additional packages:

conda install gensim
conda install -c conda-forge keras     
conda install -c conda-forge theano

3) Pretrained Word Vectors
