Word Embedding Attention Network

Code for "Word Embedding Attention Network: Generating Words by Querying Distributed Word Representations for Paraphrase Generation" [pdf]

Requirements

  • Ubuntu 16.04
  • Python 3.6
  • Pytorch 1.0.0
  • allennlp 0.7.2
  • torchfile

Data Preparation

  • Step 1: Download the PWKP dataset and put it in the folder data/.
  • Step 2: Preprocess the dataset
cd preprocess/
python3 process_pkwp.py

Run

  • Step 1: Train a model
python3 run.py -gpu 0 -mode train -dir save_path
  • Step 2: Restore and evaluate the model with the BLEU metric
python3 run.py -gpu 0 -mode evaluate -restore save_path/best.th

Pretrained Model

The code is currently non-deterministic due to various GPU ops, so you are likely to end up with a slightly better or worse evaluation. We provide a pretrained model to reproduce the results reported in our paper.
