cd KEPLER
pip install --editable .
Pre-training
Preprocessing for MLM data
Refer to the RoBERTa document for the detailed data preprocessing of the datasets used in the Masked Language Modeling (MLM) objective.
Preprocessing for KE data
The pre-training with KE objective requires the Wikidata5M dataset. Here we use the transductive split of Wikidata5M to demonstrate how to preprocess the KE data. The scripts used below are in this folder.
Download the Wikidata5M transductive data and its corresponding corpus, and then uncompress them:
wget -O wikidata5m_transductive.tar.gz https://www.dropbox.com/s/6sbhm0rwo4l73jq/wikidata5m_transductive.tar.gz?dl=1
wget -O wikidata5m_text.txt.gz https://www.dropbox.com/s/7jp4ib8zo3i6m10/wikidata5m_text.txt.gz?dl=1
tar -xzvf wikidata5m_transductive.tar.gz
gzip -d wikidata5m_text.txt.gz
Convert the original Wikidata5M files into the numerical format used in pre-training:
python convert.py --text wikidata5m_text.txt \
--train wikidata5m_transductive_train.txt \
--valid wikidata5m_transductive_valid.txt \
--converted_text Qdesc.txt \
--converted_train train.txt \
--converted_valid valid.txt
Encode the entity descriptions with the GPT-2 BPE:
mkdir -p gpt2_bpe
wget -O gpt2_bpe/encoder.json https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/fairseq/gpt2_bpe/encoder.json
wget -O gpt2_bpe/vocab.bpe https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/fairseq/gpt2_bpe/vocab.bpe
python -m examples.roberta.multiprocessing_bpe_encoder \
--encoder-json gpt2_bpe/encoder.json \
--vocab-bpe gpt2_bpe/vocab.bpe \
--inputs Qdesc.txt \
--outputs Qdesc.bpe \
--keep-empty \
--workers 60
Do negative sampling and dump the whole training and validation data:
python KGpreprocess.py --dumpPath KE1 \
-ns 1 \
--ent_desc Qdesc.bpe \
--train train.txt \
--valid valid.txt
The above command generates training and validation data for one epoch. You can generate data for more epochs by running it many times and dump to different folders (e.g. KE2
, KE3
, ...).
There may be too many instances in the KE training data generated above and thus results in the time for training one epoch is too long. We then randomly split the KE training data into smaller parts and the number of training instances in each part aligns with the MLM training data:
python splitDump.py --Path KE1 \
--split_size 6834352 \
--negative_sampling_size 1
The KE1
will be splited into KE1_0
, KE1_1
, KE1_2
, KE1_3
. We then binarize them for training:
wget -O gpt2_bpe/dict.txt https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/fairseq/gpt2_bpe/dict.txt
for KE_Data in ./KE1_0/ ./KE1_1/ ./KE1_2/ ./KE1_3/ ; do \
for SPLIT in head tail negHead negTail; do \
fairseq-preprocess \ #if fairseq-preprocess cannot be founded, use "python -m fairseq_cli.preprocess" instead
--only-source \
--srcdict gpt2_bpe/dict.txt \
--trainpref ${KE_Data}${SPLIT}/train.bpe \
--validpref ${KE_Data}${SPLIT}/valid.bpe \
--destdir ${KE_Data}${SPLIT} \
--workers 60; \
done \
done

Note: The above command assumes distributed training on 64x16GB V100 GPUs, 16 machines. If you have fewer GPUs or GPUs with less memory you may need to reduce $MAX_SENTENCES
and increase $UPDATE_FREQ
to compensate. Alternatively if you have more GPUs you can decrease $UPDATE_FREQ
accordingly to increase training speed.
Note: If you are interested in the detailed implementations. The main implementations are in tasks/MLMetKE.py and criterions/MLMetKE.py. We encourage to master the fairseq toolkit before learning KEPLER implementation details.
Usage for NLP Tasks
We release the pre-trained checkpoint for NLP tasks. Since KEPLER does not modify RoBERTa model architectures, the KEPLER checkpoint can be directly used in the same way as RoBERTa checkpoints in the downstream NLP tasks.
Convert Checkpoint to HuggingFace's Transformers
In the fine-tuning and usage, it will be more convinent to convert the original fairseq checkpoints to HuggingFace's Transformers.
The conversion can be finished with this code. The example command is:
python -m transformers.convert_roberta_original_pytorch_checkpoint_to_pytorch \
--roberta_checkpoint_path path_to_KEPLER_checkpoint \
--pytorch_dump_folder_path path_to_output \
The path_to_KEPLER_checkpoint
should contain model.pt
(the downloaded KEPLER checkpoint) and dict.txt
(standard RoBERTa dictionary file).
Note that the new versions of HuggingFace's Transformers library requires fairseq>=0.9.0
, but the modified fairseq library in this repo and our checkpoints generated with is fairseq==0.8.0
. The two versions are minorly different in the checkpoint format. Hence transformers<=2.2.2
or pytorch_transformers
are needed for checkpoint conversion here.
TACRED
We suggest to use the converted HuggingFace's Transformers checkpoint as well as the OpenNRE library to perform experiments on TACRED. An example code will be updated soon.
To directly fine-tune KEPLER on TACRED in fairseq framework, please refer to this script. The script requires 2x16GB V100 GPUs.
FewRel
To finetune KEPLER on FewRel, you can use the offiicial code in the FewRel repo and set --encoder roberta
as well as --pretrained_checkpoint path_to_converted_KEPLER
.
OpenEntity
Please refer to this directory and this script for the codes of OpenEntity experiments.
These codes are modified on top of ERNIE.
GLUE
For the fine-tuning on GLUE tasks, refer to the official guide of RoBERTa.
Refer to this directory for the example scripts along with hyper-parameters.
Knowledge Probing (LAMA and LAMA-UHN)
For the experiments on LAMA, please refer to the codes in the LAMA repo and set --roberta_model_dir path_to_converted_KEPLER
.
The LAMA-UHN dataset can be created with this scirpt.
Usage for Knowledge Embedding
We release the pre-trained checkpoint for KE tasks.
First, install the graphvite
package in./graphvite
following its instructions. GraphVite is an fast toolkit for network embedding and knowledge embedding, and we made some modifications on top of them.
Generate the entity embeddings and relation embeddings withgenerate_embeddings.py
. The arguments are as following:
--data
: the entity decription data, a single file, each line is an entity description. It should be BPE encoded and binarized like introduced in the Preprocessing for KE data--ckpt_dir
: path of the KEPLER checkpoint.--ckpt
: filename of the KEPLER checkpoint.--dict
: path to thedict.txt
file.--ent_emb
: filename to dump entity embeddings (in numpy format).--rel_emb
: filename to dump relation embeddings (in numpy format).--batch_size
: batch size used in inference.
Then use evaluate_transe_transductive.py
and ke_tool/evaluate_transe_inductive.py
for KE evaluation. The arguments are as following:
--entity_embeddings
: a numpy file storing the entity embeddings.--relation_embeddings
: a numpy file storing the relation embeddings.--dim
: the dimension of the relation and entity embeddings.--entity2id
: a json file that maps entity names (in the dataset) to the ids in the entity embedding numpy file, where the key is the entity names in the dataset, and the value is the id in the numpy file.--relation2id
: a json file that maps relation names (in the dataset) to the ids in the relation embedding numpy file.--dataset
: the test data file.--train_dataset
: the training data file (only for transductive setting).--val_dataset
: the validation data file (only for transductive setting).
