A Neural Conversational Model

TensorFlow implementation of Conversation Models.

Model
- seq2seq_attention : Seq2Seq model with attentional decoder
  - Encoder
    - Unidirectional RNN
    - Stack Bidirectional RNN
  - Attention
    - Bahdanau Attention (option Norm)
    - Luong Attention (option Scale)
  - Decoder
    - Greedy (beam_width = 0)
    - Beam Search (beam_width > 0)
    - Scheduled Sampling
Dataset
- Cornell_Movie-Dialogs_Corpus
- Twitter chat_corpus

Requirements

Python 3.6
TensorFlow 1.4
nltk
hb-config (Singleton Config)

Usage

Install requirements.

pip install -r requirements.txt

First, check if the model is valid.

python main.py --config check_tiny --mode train

Then, download Cornell_Movie-Dialogs_Corpus and train it.

sh scripts/prepare_Cornell_Movie-Dialogs_Corpus.sh
python data_loader --config cornell-movie-dialogs  # pre-processing data
python main.py --config cornell-movie-dialogs --mode train_and_evaluate

Experiments modes

: Working
: Not tested yet.

evaluate : Evaluate on the evaluation data.
extend_train_hooks : Extends the hooks for training.
reset_export_strategies : Resets the export strategies with the new_export_strategies.
run_std_server : Starts a TensorFlow server and joins the serving thread.
test : Tests training, evaluating and exporting the estimator for a single step.
train : Fit the estimator using the training data.
train_and_evaluate : Interleaves training and evaluation.

After training, start chatting.

python chat.py --config cornell-movie-dialogs

Tensorboard

tensorboard --logdir logs

i ' m sorry , i ' m sorry . <\s>
> omg
no . <\s>
> florida.
he hasn ' t got any
> music is my life.
you ' re a fool , you ' re a man !
> wow!
i ' m not kidding .
> sorry.
i ' m not kidding .
> yeah, i know it.
i ' m not sure . <\s>
> california?
what ? <\s>
> haha.
it ' s a real competition
