A Deep Learning Based Knowledge Extraction Toolkit
for Knowledge Graph Construction

DeepKE is a knowledge extraction toolkit for knowledge graph construction supporting cnSchema，low-resource, document-level and multimodal scenarios for entity, relation and attribute extraction. We provide documents, online demo, paper, slides and poster for beginners.

❗Want to use Large Language Models with DeepKE? Try DeepKE-LLM and OneKE, have fun!
❗Want to train supervised models? Try Quick Start, we provide the NER models (e.g, LightNER(COLING'22), W2NER(AAAI'22)), relation extraction models (e.g., KnowPrompt(WWW'22)), relational triple extraction models (e.g., ASP(EMNLP'22), PRGC(ACL'21), PURE(NAACL'21)), and release off-the-shelf models at DeepKE-cnSchema, have fun!
We recommend using Linux; if using Windows, please use \\ in file paths;

Prediction Demo

There is a demonstration of prediction. The GIF file is created by Terminalizer. Get the code.

Model Framework

DeepKE contains a unified framework for named entity recognition, relation extraction and attribute extraction, the three knowledge extraction functions.
Each task can be implemented in different scenarios. For example, we can achieve relation extraction in standard, low-resource (few-shot), document-level and multimodal settings.
Each application scenario comprises of three components: Data including Tokenizer, Preprocessor and Loader, Model including Module, Encoder and Forwarder, Core including Training, Evaluation and Prediction.

Quick Start

DeepKE-LLM

In the era of large models, DeepKE-LLM utilizes a completely new environment dependency.

conda create -n deepke-llm python=3.9
conda activate deepke-llm

cd example/llm
pip install -r requirements.txt

Please note that the requirements.txt file is located in the example/llm folder.

DeepKE

DeepKE supports pip install deepke.
Take the fully supervised relation extraction for example.
DeepKE supports both manual and docker image environment configuration, you can choose the appropriate way to build.
Highly recommended to install deepke in a Linux environment.

🔧Manual Environment Configuration

Step1 Download the basic code

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/zjunlp/DeepKE.git

Step2 Create a virtual environment using Anaconda and enter it.

conda create -n deepke python=3.8

conda activate deepke

Install DeepKE with source code

pip install -r requirements.txt

python setup.py install

python setup.py develop

Install DeepKE with pip (NOT recommended!)
```
pip install deepke
```
- Please make sure that pip version <= 24.0

Step3 Enter the task directory

cd DeepKE/example/re/standard

Step4 Download the dataset, or follow the annotation instructions to obtain data

wget 120.27.214.45/Data/re/standard/data.tar.gz

tar -xzvf data.tar.gz

Many types of data formats are supported,and details are in each part.

Step5 Training (Parameters for training can be changed in the conf folder)

We support visual parameter tuning by using wandb.

python run.py

Step6 Prediction (Parameters for prediction can be changed in the conf folder)

Modify the path of the trained model in predict.yaml.The absolute path of the model needs to be used，such as xxx/checkpoints/2019-12-03_ 17-35-30/cnn_ epoch21.pth.

python predict.py

❗NOTE: if you encounter any errors, please refer to the Tips or submit a GitHub issue.

🐳Building With Docker Images

Step1 Install the Docker client

Install Docker and start the Docker service.

Step2 Pull the docker image and run the container

docker pull zjunlp/deepke:latest
docker run -it zjunlp/deepke:latest /bin/bash

The remaining steps are the same as Step 3 and onwards in Manual Environment Configuration.

❗NOTE: You can refer to the Tips to speed up installation

Introduction of Three Functions

1. Named Entity Recognition

Named entity recognition seeks to locate and classify named entities mentioned in unstructured text into pre-defined categories such as person names, organizations, locations, organizations, etc.

The data is stored in .txt files. Some instances as following (Users can label data based on the tools Doccano, MarkTool, or they can use the Weak Supervision with DeepKE to obtain data automatically):

Sentence	Person	Location	Organization
本报北京9月4日讯记者杨涌报道：部分省区人民日报宣传发行工作座谈会9月3日在4日在京举行。	杨涌	北京	人民日报
《红楼梦》由王扶林导演，周汝昌、王蒙、周岭等多位专家参与制作。	王扶林，周汝昌，王蒙，周岭
秦始皇兵马俑位于陕西省西安市,是世界八大奇迹之一。	秦始皇	陕西省，西安市

  Step2 Training in the low-resouce setting
  
  The directory where the model is loaded and saved and the configuration parameters can be cusomized in the conf folder.
```
python run.py +train=few_shot
```
  Users can modify load_path in conf/train/few_shot.yaml to use existing loaded model.
  
  Step3 Add - predict to conf/config.yaml, modify loda_path as the model path and write_path as the path where the predicted results are saved in conf/predict.yaml, and then run python predict.py
```

```
  We use RCNN detected objects and visual grounding objects from original images as visual local information, where RCNN via faster_rcnn and visual grounding via onestage_grounding.
  
  Step2 Training in the multimodal setting
  - The dataset and parameters can be customized in the data folder and conf folder respectively.
  - Start with the model trained last time: modify load_path in conf/train.yamlas the path where the model trained last time was saved. And the path saving logs generated in training can be customized by log_dir.

Tips

1.Using nearest mirror, THU in China, will speed up the installation of Anaconda; aliyun in China, will speed up pip install XXX.

2.When encountering ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'past'，run pip install future .

3.It's slow to install the pretrained language models online. Recommend download pretrained models before use and save them in the pretrained folder. Read README.md in every task directory to check the specific requirement for saving pretrained models.

4.The old version of DeepKE is in the deepke-v1.0 branch. Users can change the branch to use the old version. The old version has been totally transfered to the standard relation extraction (example/re/standard).

5.If you want to modify the source code, it's recommended to install DeepKE with source codes. If not, the modification will not work. See issue

6.More related low-resource knowledge extraction works can be found in Knowledge Extraction in Low-Resource Scenarios: Survey and Perspective.

7.Make sure the exact versions of requirements in requirements.txt.

To do

In next version, we plan to release a stronger LLM for KE.

Meanwhile, we will offer long-term maintenance to fix bugs, solve issues and meet new requests. So if you have any problems, please put issues to us.
