ConveRTTokenizer Objects

class ConveRTTokenizer(WhitespaceTokenizer)

Tokenizer using ConveRT model.

Loads the ConveRT(https://github.com/PolyAI-LDN/polyai-models#convert) model from TFHub and computes sub-word tokens for dense featurizable attributes of each message object.

__init__

| __init__(component_config: Dict[Text, Any] = None) -> None

Construct a new tokenizer using the WhitespaceTokenizer framework.

Arguments:

  • component_config - User configuration for the component

cache_key

| @classmethod
| cache_key(cls, component_meta: Dict[Text, Any], model_metadata: Metadata) -> Optional[Text]

Cache the component for future use.

Arguments:

  • component_meta - configuration for the component.
  • model_metadata - configuration for the whole pipeline.
  • Returns - key of the cache for future retrievals.

tokenize

| tokenize(message: Message, attribute: Text) -> List[Token]

Tokenize the text using the ConveRT model. ConveRT adds a special char in front of (some) words and splits words into sub-words. To ensure the entity start and end values matches the token values, tokenize the text first using the whitespace tokenizer. If individual tokens are split up into multiple tokens, add this information to the respected tokens.
