Context based Approach for Second Language Acquisition

This project is the implementation of the system submitted to the SLAM 2018 (Second Language Acquisition Modeling 2018) shared task.

This page gives instructions for replicating the results in our system.

Installation

Our project is built on python. We have ensured python 2 and 3 compatibility. In this section, we describe the installation procedure for Ubuntu 16.04.

shell git clone https://github.com/iampuntre/slam18.git cd slam18 virtualenv env source env/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt mkdir data

Note: Follow equivalent instructions for your Operating System

Downloading Data

In our experiments, we use the SLAM 2018 Dataset. To download the dataset, download from https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.7910/DVN/8SWHNO.

After downloading the data, unzip it in the data directory.

Parameters for the Experiment

In order to train the model, you will have to configure the parameters.ini file. You can find this file in src/parameters.ini.

We have three sections in the file - model, options and context_features. The model section is used to point to the train and test files. options section is used to manipulate the various hyperparameters while training the model. Lastly, we have the context_features section, which is used to activate/deactivate various context based features.

Change the appropriate values for train, dev and test files. We have preset the values of the hyperparameters that we have used in our experiments. By default, all the context features are activated.

Prepare Data

After you have successfully configured the parameters.ini file, you should prepare the data for training. This is an intermediate step, where we extract the tokens and part of speech present in the surrounding of the context. For more details, read our paper.

To prepare the data, execute the following -

shell python src/prepare_data.py --params_file src/parameters.ini

You should be able to see three .json files in your data directory.

Train your model

To train the model, type the following command in your terminal -

shell python src/train_model.py --params_file src/parameters.ini

Note: It is recommended you run this step only if you have sufficient memory (atleast 16GB)

Test your predictions

To evaluate your predictions, execute the following command -

shell python src/eval.py --params_file src/parameters.ini
