* Add spacy.errors module
* Update deprecation and user warnings
* Replace errors and asserts with new error message system
* Remove redundant asserts
* Fix whitespace
* Add messages for print/util.prints statements
* Fix typo
* Fix typos
* Move CLI messages to spacy.cli._messages
* Add decorator to display error code with message
An implementation like this is nice because it only modifies the string when it's retrieved from the containing class – so we don't have to worry about manipulating tracebacks etc.
* Remove unused link in spacy.about
* Update errors for invalid pipeline components
* Improve error for unknown factories
* Add displaCy warnings
* Update formatting consistency
* Move error message to spacy.errors
* Update errors and check if doc returned by component is None
This patch addresses #1660, which was caused by keying all pre-trained
vectors with the same ID when telling Thinc how to refer to them. This
meant that if multiple models were loaded that had pre-trained vectors,
errors or incorrect behaviour resulted.
The vectors class now includes a .name attribute, which defaults to:
{nlp.meta['lang']_nlp.meta['name']}.vectors
The vectors name is set in the cfg of the pipeline components under the
key pretrained_vectors. This replaces the previous cfg key
pretrained_dims.
In order to make existing models compatible with this change, we check
for the pretrained_dims key when loading models in from_disk and
from_bytes, and add the cfg key pretrained_vectors if we find it.
Allows adding those components to the pipeline out-of-the-box if they're defined in a model's meta.json. Also allows usage as nlp.add_pipe(nlp.create_pipe('merge_entities')).
The TextCategorizer class is supposed to support multi-label
text classification, and allow training data to contain missing
values.
For this to work, the gradient of the loss should be 0 when labels
are missing. Instead, there was no way to actually denote "missing"
in the GoldParse class, and so the TextCategorizer class treated
the label set within gold.cats as complete.
To fix this, we change GoldParse.cats to be a dict instead of a list.
The GoldParse.cats dict should map to floats, with 1. denoting
'present' and 0. denoting 'absent'. Gradients are zeroed for categories
absent from the gold.cats dict. A nice bonus is that you can also set
values between 0 and 1 for partial membership. You can also set numeric
values, if you're using a text classification model that uses an
appropriate loss function.
Unfortunately this is a breaking change; although the functionality
was only recently introduced and hasn't been properly documented
yet. I've updated the example script accordingly.
