GitHub - natasha/navec: Compact high quality word embeddings for Russian language

Navec is a library of pretrained word embeddings for Russian language. It shows competitive or better results than RusVectores, loads ~10 times faster (~1 sec), takes ~10 times less space (~50 MB).

Navec = large Russian text datasets + vanila GloVe + quantization

                 |    |     --------- original vectors have 300 dimentions

                  ------------------- dataset of 12 billion tokens was used

Currently two models are published:

Model	Size	Description	Sources
navec_hudlit_v1_12B_500K_300d_100q.tar `#`	50MB	Should be used by default. Shows best results on intrinsic evaluations. Model was trained on large corpus of `an literature (~150GB).`	`librusec`
navec_news_v1_1B_250K_300d_100q.tar `#`	25MB	Try to use this model to news texts. It is two times smaller than `hudlit` but covers same 98% of words in news articles.	`lenta` `ria` `taiga_fontanka` `buriy_news` `buriy_webhose` `ods_gazeta` `ods_interfax`

Installation

Navec supports Pyton 3.7+ and PyPy 3.

$ pip install navec

Usage

First download hudlit emdeddings (see the table above):

wget https://storage.yandexcloud.net/natasha-navec/packs/navec_hudlit_v1_12B_500K_300d_100q.tar

Load tar-archive with Navec.load, it takes ~1s and ~100MB of RAM:

>>> from navec import Navec

>>> path = 'hudlit_12B_500K_300d_100q.tar'
>>> navec = Navec.load(path)

Then navec can be used as a dict object:

>>> navec['навек']
array([ 0.3955571 ,  0.11600914,  0.24605067, -0.35206917, -0.08932345,
        0.3382279 , -0.5457616 ,  0.07472657, -0.4753835 , -0.3330848 ,
        ...

>>> 'нааавееек' in navec
False

>>> navec.get('нааавееек')
None

To get an index of word, use navec.vocab:

>>> navec.vocab['навек']
225823

>>> navec.vocab.get('наааавеeeк', navec.vocab.unk_id)
500000   # == navec.vocab['<unk>']

There are two special words in vocab, <unk> and <pad>:

>>> navec['<unk>']
array([ 3.69125791e-02,  9.32818875e-02,  2.01917738e-02, ...

>>> navec['<pad>']
array([0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., ...

To use Navec in PyTorch model there is a Slovnet module:

>>> import torch
>>> from slovnet.model.emb import NavecEmbedding

>>> emb = NavecEmbedding(navec)
>>> input = torch.tensor([1, 2, 0])
>>> output = emb(input)

>>> output.shape
torch.Size([3, 300])

>>> output
tensor([[ 4.2000e-01,  3.6666e-01,  1.7728e-01, -3.8719e-01, -1.0762e-01,
          1.6954e-01, -4.6063e-01,  5.4519e-01, -2.1212e-01,  2.0965e-01,

Evaluation

Let's compore Navec to top 5 RusVectores models (based on simlex and hj eval datasets). In each column top 3 results are highlighted.

init — time it takes to load model file to RAM. tayga_upos_skipgram_300_2_2019 word2vec binary file takes 5 seconds to load with gensim.KeyedVectors.load_word2vec_format. tayga_none_fasttextcbow_300_10_2019 fastText large ~2.7 GB file takes 8 seconds. Navec hudlit with vocab 2 times larger than previous two takes 1 second.
get — time is takes to query embedding vector for a single word. Word2vec models win here, to fetch a vector they basically do dict.get. FastText and Navec for every query do extra computation. FastText extracts and sums word ngrams, Navec unpacks vector from quantization table. In practice query to embeddings table is small compared to all other computation in network.
disk — model file size. It is convenient for deployment and distribution to have small models. Notice that hudlit model is 4-20 times smaller with vocab size 2 times bigger.
ram — space model takes in RAM after loading. It is convenient to have small memory footprint to fit more computation on single server.
vocab — number of words in vocab, number of embedding vectors. Since Navec vectors table takes less space we can have larger vocab. With 500K vocab hudlit model has ~2% OVV rate on average.

	type	init, s	get, µs	disk, mb	ram, mb	vocab

araneum_none_fasttextcbow_300_5_2018	fasttext	16.4	10.6	2752.1	2754.7	195K

Now let's look at intrinsic evaluation scores. Navec hudlit model does not show best results on all datasets but it is usually in top 3. We'll use 6 datasets:

simlex965, hj — two small datasets (965 and 398 tests respectively) used by RusVectores, see the their paper for more info. Metric is spearman correlation, other datasets use average precision.
rt, ae, ae2 — large datasets (114066, 22919, 86772 tests) from RUSSE workshop, see project description for more.
lrwc — relatively new dataset by Yandex.Toloka, see their page.
