Introduction

This example demonstrates how to implement a basic character-level recurrent sequence-to-sequence model. We apply it to translating short English sentences into short French sentences, character-by-character. Note that it is fairly unusual to do character-level machine translation, as word-level models are more common in this domain.

Summary of the algorithm

  • We start with input sequences from a domain (e.g. English sentences) and corresponding target sequences from another domain (e.g. French sentences).
  • An encoder LSTM turns input sequences to 2 state vectors (we keep the last LSTM state and discard the outputs).
  • A decoder LSTM is trained to turn the target sequences into the same sequence but offset by one timestep in the future, a training process called "teacher forcing" in this context. It uses as initial state the state vectors from the encoder. Effectively, the decoder learns to generate targets[t+1...] given targets[...t], conditioned on the input sequence.
  • In inference mode, when we want to decode unknown input sequences, we: - Encode the input sequence into state vectors - Start with a target sequence of size 1 (just the start-of-sequence character) - Feed the state vectors and 1-char target sequence to the decoder to produce predictions for the next character - Sample the next character using these predictions (we simply use argmax). - Append the sampled character to the target sequence - Repeat until we generate the end-of-sequence character or we hit the character limit.

Build the model

# Define an input sequence and process it.

encoder_states = [state_h, state_c]

# Set up the decoder, using `encoder_states` as initial state.
decoder_inputs = keras.Input(shape=(None, num_decoder_tokens))

# We set up our decoder to return full output sequences,
# and to return internal states as well. We don't use the
# return states in the training model, but we will use them in inference.

Run inference (sampling)

  1. encode input and retrieve initial decoder state
  2. run one step of decoder with this initial state and a "start of sequence" token as target. Output will be the next target token.
  3. Repeat with the current target token and current states
# Define sampling models
# Restore the model and construct the encoder and decoder.
model = keras.models.load_model("s2s_model.keras")

encoder_inputs = model.input[0]  # input_1
encoder_outputs, state_h_enc, state_c_enc = model.layers[2].output  # lstm_1

    [decoder_inputs] + decoder_states_inputs, [decoder_outputs] + decoder_states

You can now generate decoded sentences as such:

for seq_index in range(20):
    # Take one sequence (part of the training set)
    # for trying out decoding.
    input_seq = encoder_input_data[seq_index : seq_index + 1]
    decoded_sentence = decode_sequence(input_seq)
    print("-")
    print("Input sentence:", input_texts[seq_index])
    print("Decoded sentence:", decoded_sentence)
