transformers4rec.tf.masking module

class transformers4rec.tf.masking.MaskingInfo(schema: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor, targets: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor)[source]

Bases: object

schema: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor
targets: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor
class transformers4rec.tf.masking.MaskSequence(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: keras.engine.base_layer.Layer

Base class to prepare masked items inputs/labels for language modeling tasks.

Transformer architectures can be trained in different ways. Depending of the training method, there is a specific masking schema. The masking schema sets the items to be predicted (labels) and mask (hide) their positions in the sequence so that they are not used by the Transformer layers for prediction.

We currently provide 4 different masking schemes out of the box:

  • Causal LM (clm)

  • Masked LM (mlm)

  • Permutation LM (plm)

  • Replacement Token Detection (rtd)

This class can be extended to add different a masking scheme.

Parameters

  • hidden_size (int) – The hidden dimension of input tensors, needed to initialize trainable vector of masked positions.

  • padding_idx (int, default = 0) – Index of padding item used for getting batch of sequences with the same length

  • eval_on_last_item_seq_only (bool, default = True) – Predict only last item during evaluation

get_config()[source]
compute_masked_targets(item_ids: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor, training=False) → transformers4rec.tf.masking.MaskingInfo[source]

Method to prepare masked labels based on the sequence of item ids. It returns The true labels of masked positions and the related boolean mask. And the attributes of the class mask_schema and masked_targets are updated to be re-used in other modules.

Parameters

  • item_ids (tf.Tensor) – The sequence of input item ids used for deriving labels of next item prediction task.

  • training (bool) – Flag to indicate whether we are in Training mode or not. During training, the labels can be any items within the sequence based on the selected masking task. During evaluation, we are predicting the last item in the sequence.

Returns

Return type

Tuple[MaskingSchema, MaskedTargets]

apply_mask_to_inputs(inputs: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor, schema: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor) → tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor[source]

Control the masked positions in the inputs by replacing the true interaction by a learnable masked embedding.

Parameters

  • inputs (tf.Tensor) – The 3-D tensor of interaction embeddings resulting from the ops: TabularFeatures + aggregation + projection(optional)

  • schema (MaskingSchema) – The boolean mask indicating masked positions.

predict_all(item_ids: tensorflow.python.framework.ops.Tensor) → transformers4rec.tf.masking.MaskingInfo[source]

Prepare labels for all next item predictions instead of last-item predictions in a user’s sequence.

Parameters

item_ids (tf.Tensor) – The sequence of input item ids used for deriving labels of next item prediction task.

Returns

class transformers4rec.tf.masking.CausalLanguageModeling(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: transformers4rec.tf.masking.MaskSequence

In Causal Language Modeling (clm) you predict the next item based on past positions of the sequence. Future positions are masked.

Parameters

  • hidden_size (int) – The hidden dimension of input tensors, needed to initialize trainable vector of masked positions.

  • padding_idx (int, default = 0) – Index of padding item used for getting batch of sequences with the same length

  • eval_on_last_item_seq_only (bool, default = True) – Predict only last item during evaluation

  • train_on_last_item_seq_only (predict only last item during training) –

class transformers4rec.tf.masking.MaskedLanguageModeling(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: transformers4rec.tf.masking.MaskSequence

In Masked Language Modeling (mlm) you randomly select some positions of the sequence to be predicted, which are masked. During training, the Transformer layer is allowed to use positions on the right (future info). During inference, all past items are visible for the Transformer layer, which tries to predict the next item.

Parameters

  • {mask_sequence_parameters} –

  • mlm_probability (Optional[float], default = 0.15) – Probability of an item to be selected (masked) as a label of the given sequence. p.s. We enforce that at least one item is masked for each sequence, so that the network can learn something with it.

The SequentialLayer represents a sequence of Keras layers. It is a Keras Layer that can be used instead of tf.keras.layers.Sequential, which is actually a Keras Model. In contrast to keras Sequential, this layer can be used as a pure Layer in tf.functions and when exporting SavedModels, without having to pre-declare input and output shapes. In turn, this layer is usable as a preprocessing layer for TF Agents Networks, and can be exported via PolicySaver. Usage:

c = SequentialLayer([layer1, layer2, layer3])
output = c(inputs)    # Equivalent to: output = layer3(layer2(layer1(inputs)))

class transformers4rec.tf.TabularBlock(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: transformers4rec.tf.block.base.Block

Layer that’s specialized for tabular-data by integrating many often used operations.

Note, when extending this class, typically you want to overwrite the compute_call_output_shape method instead of the normal compute_output_shape. This because a Block can contain pre- and post-processing and the output-shapes are handled automatically in compute_output_shape. The output of compute_call_output_shape should be the shape that’s outputted by the call-method.

Parameters

  • pre (Union[str, TabularTransformation, List[str], List[TabularTransformation]], optional) – Transformations to apply on the inputs when the module is called (so before call).

  • post (Union[str, TabularTransformation, List[str], List[TabularTransformation]], optional) – Transformations to apply on the inputs after the module is called (so after call).

  • aggregation (Union[str, TabularAggregation], optional) –

    Aggregation to apply after processing the call-method to output a single Tensor.

    Next to providing a class that extends TabularAggregation, it’s also possible to provide the name that the class is registered in the tabular_aggregation_registry. Out of the box this contains: “concat”, “stack”, “element-wise-sum” & “element-wise-sum-item-multi”.

  • schema (Optional[DatasetSchema]) – DatasetSchema containing the columns used in this block.

  • name (Optional[str]) – Name of the layer.

classmethod from_schema(schema: merlin_standard_lib.schema.schema.Schema, tags=None, **kwargs) → Optional[transformers4rec.tf.tabular.base.TabularBlock][source]

Instantiate a TabularLayer instance from a DatasetSchema.

Parameters

Bases: object

Configuration data for one embedding feature.

This class holds the configuration data for a single embedding feature. The main use is to assign features to `tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TableConfig`s via the table parameter:

```python table_config_one = tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TableConfig(

vocabulary_size=…, dim=…)

table_config_two = tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TableConfig(

vocabulary_size=…, dim=…)

feature_config = {
‘feature_one’: tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig(

table=table_config_one),

‘feature_two’: tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig(

table=table_config_one),

‘feature_three’: tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig(

table=table_config_two)}

embedding = tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TPUEmbedding(

feature_config=feature_config, batch_size=… optimizer=tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.Adam(0.1))

```

The above configuration has 2 tables, and three features. The first two features will be looked up in the first table and the third feature will be looked up in the second table.

You can also specify the output shape for each feature. The output shape should be the expected activation shape excluding the table dimension. For dense and sparse tensor, the output shape should be the same as the input shape excluding the last dimension. For ragged tensor, the output shape can mismatch the input shape.

NOTE: The max_sequence_length will be only used when the input tensor has rank 2 and the output_shape is not set in the feature config.

When feeding features into embedding.enqueue they can be tf.Tensor`s, `tf.SparseTensor`s or `tf.RaggedTensor`s. When the argument `max_sequence_length is 0, the default, you should expect a output of embedding.dequeue for this feature of shape (batch_size, dim). If max_sequence_length is greater than 0, the feature is embedded as a sequence and padded up to the given length. The shape of the output for this feature will be (batch_size, max_sequence_length, dim).

class transformers4rec.tf.TableConfig(vocabulary_size: int, dim: int, initializer: Optional[Callable[[Any], None]] = None, optimizer: Optional[tensorflow.python.tpu.tpu_embedding_v2_utils._Optimizer] = None, combiner: str = 'mean', name: Optional[str] = None)[source]

Bases: object

Configuration data for one embedding table.

This class holds the configuration data for a single embedding table. It is used as the table parameter of a tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig. Multiple tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig objects can use the same tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TableConfig object. In this case a shared table will be created for those feature lookups.

```python table_config_one = tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TableConfig(

vocabulary_size=…, dim=…)

table_config_two = tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TableConfig(

vocabulary_size=…, dim=…)

feature_config = {
‘feature_one’: tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig(

table=table_config_one),

‘feature_two’: tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig(

table=table_config_one),

‘feature_three’: tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.FeatureConfig(

table=table_config_two)}

embedding = tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.TPUEmbedding(

feature_config=feature_config, batch_size=… optimizer=tf.tpu.experimental.embedding.Adam(0.1))

```

The above configuration has 2 tables, and three features. The first two features will be looked up in the first table and the third feature will be looked up in the second table.
