Installation
============

Make sure you have Python 3.5 or newer and a recent version of MXNet (our CI
server runs the testsuite with Python 3.5).

You can install ``MXNet`` and ``GluonNLP`` using pip.

``GluonNLP`` is based on the most recent version of ``MXNet``.


In particular, if you want to install the most recent ``MXNet`` release:

::

    pip install --upgrade mxnet>=1.6.0

Else, if you want to install the most recent ``MXNet`` nightly build:

::

    pip install --pre --upgrade mxnet

Then, you can install ``GluonNLP``:

::

    pip install gluonnlp

Please check more `installation details <https://github.com/dmlc/gluon-nlp/blob/master/docs/install.rst>`_.

Quick Start Guide
=================

`Dataset Loading <http://gluon-nlp.mxnet.io/master/api/notes/data_api.html>`__
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Load the Wikitext-2 dataset, for example:

.. code:: python

    >>> import gluonnlp as nlp
    >>> train = nlp.data.WikiText2(segment='train')
    >>> train[0:5]
    ['=', 'Valkyria', 'Chronicles', 'III', '=']

`Vocabulary Construction <http://gluon-nlp.mxnet.io/master/api/modules/vocab.html>`__
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Build vocabulary based on the above dataset, for example:

.. code:: python

    >>> vocab = nlp.Vocab(counter=nlp.data.Counter(train))
    >>> vocab
    Vocab(size=33280, unk="<unk>", reserved="['<pad>', '<bos>', '<eos>']")

`Neural Models Building <http://gluon-nlp.mxnet.io/master/api/modules/model.html>`__
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the models package, apply a Standard RNN language model to the
above dataset:

.. code:: python

    >>> model = nlp.model.language_model.StandardRNN('lstm', len(vocab),
    ...                                              200, 200, 2, 0.5, True)
    >>> model
    StandardRNN(
      (embedding): HybridSequential(
        (0): Embedding(33280 -> 200, float32)
        (1): Dropout(p = 0.5, axes=())
      )
      (encoder): LSTM(200 -> 200.0, TNC, num_layers=2, dropout=0.5)
      (decoder): HybridSequential(
        (0): Dense(200 -> 33280, linear)
      )
    )

`Word Embeddings Loading <http://gluon-nlp.mxnet.io/master/api/modules/embedding.html>`__
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For example, load a GloVe word embedding, one of the state-of-the-art
English word embeddings:

.. code:: python

    >>> glove = nlp.embedding.create('glove', source='glove.6B.50d')
    # Obtain vectors for 'baby' in the GloVe word embedding
    >>> type(glove['baby'])
    <class 'mxnet.ndarray.ndarray.NDArray'>
    >>> glove['baby'].shape
    (50,)
