--- title: Legacy functions and architectures teaser: Archived implementations available through spacy-legacy source: spacy/legacy --- The [`spacy-legacy`](https://github.com/explosion/spacy-legacy) package includes outdated registered functions and architectures. It is installed automatically as a dependency of spaCy, and provides backwards compatibility for archived functions that may still be used in projects. You can find the detailed documentation of each such legacy function on this page. ## Architectures {#architectures} These functions are available from `@spacy.registry.architectures`. ### spacy.Tok2Vec.v1 {#Tok2Vec_v1} The `spacy.Tok2Vec.v1` architecture was expecting an `encode` model of type `Model[Floats2D, Floats2D]` such as `spacy.MaxoutWindowEncoder.v1` or `spacy.MishWindowEncoder.v1`. > #### Example config > > ```ini > [model] > @architectures = "spacy.Tok2Vec.v1" > > [model.embed] > @architectures = "spacy.CharacterEmbed.v1" > # ... > > [model.encode] > @architectures = "spacy.MaxoutWindowEncoder.v1" > # ... > ``` Construct a tok2vec model out of two subnetworks: one for embedding and one for encoding. See the ["Embed, Encode, Attend, Predict"](https://explosion.ai/blog/deep-learning-formula-nlp) blog post for background. | Name | Description | | ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `embed` | Embed tokens into context-independent word vector representations. For example, [CharacterEmbed](/api/architectures#CharacterEmbed) or [MultiHashEmbed](/api/architectures#MultiHashEmbed). ~~Model[List[Doc], List[Floats2d]]~~ | | `encode` | Encode context into the embeddings, using an architecture such as a CNN, BiLSTM or transformer. For example, [MaxoutWindowEncoder.v1](/api/legacy#MaxoutWindowEncoder_v1). ~~Model[Floats2d, Floats2d]~~ | | **CREATES** | The model using the architecture. ~~Model[List[Doc], List[Floats2d]]~~ | ### spacy.MaxoutWindowEncoder.v1 {#MaxoutWindowEncoder_v1} The `spacy.MaxoutWindowEncoder.v1` architecture was producing a model of type `Model[Floats2D, Floats2D]`. Since `spacy.MaxoutWindowEncoder.v2`, this has been changed to output type `Model[List[Floats2d], List[Floats2d]]`. > #### Example config > > ```ini > [model] > @architectures = "spacy.MaxoutWindowEncoder.v1" > width = 128 > window_size = 1 > maxout_pieces = 3 > depth = 4 > ``` Encode context using convolutions with maxout activation, layer normalization and residual connections. | Name | Description | | --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `width` | The input and output width. These are required to be the same, to allow residual connections. This value will be determined by the width of the inputs. Recommended values are between `64` and `300`. ~~int~~ | | `window_size` | The number of words to concatenate around each token to construct the convolution. Recommended value is `1`. ~~int~~ | | `maxout_pieces` | The number of maxout pieces to use. Recommended values are `2` or `3`. ~~int~~ | | `depth` | The number of convolutional layers. Recommended value is `4`. ~~int~~ | | **CREATES** | The model using the architecture. ~~Model[Floats2d, Floats2d]~~ | ### spacy.MishWindowEncoder.v1 {#MishWindowEncoder_v1} The `spacy.MishWindowEncoder.v1` architecture was producing a model of type `Model[Floats2D, Floats2D]`. Since `spacy.MishWindowEncoder.v2`, this has been changed to output type `Model[List[Floats2d], List[Floats2d]]`. > #### Example config > > ```ini > [model] > @architectures = "spacy.MishWindowEncoder.v1" > width = 64 > window_size = 1 > depth = 4 > ``` Encode context using convolutions with [`Mish`](https://thinc.ai/docs/api-layers#mish) activation, layer normalization and residual connections. | Name | Description | | ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `width` | The input and output width. These are required to be the same, to allow residual connections. This value will be determined by the width of the inputs. Recommended values are between `64` and `300`. ~~int~~ | | `window_size` | The number of words to concatenate around each token to construct the convolution. Recommended value is `1`. ~~int~~ | | `depth` | The number of convolutional layers. Recommended value is `4`. ~~int~~ | | **CREATES** | The model using the architecture. ~~Model[Floats2d, Floats2d]~~ | ### spacy.TextCatEnsemble.v1 {#TextCatEnsemble_v1} The `spacy.TextCatEnsemble.v1` architecture built an internal `tok2vec` and `linear_model`. Since `spacy.TextCatEnsemble.v2`, this has been refactored so that the `TextCatEnsemble` takes these two sublayers as input. > #### Example Config > > ```ini > [model] > @architectures = "spacy.TextCatEnsemble.v1" > exclusive_classes = false > pretrained_vectors = null > width = 64 > embed_size = 2000 > conv_depth = 2 > window_size = 1 > ngram_size = 1 > dropout = null > nO = null > ``` Stacked ensemble of a bag-of-words model and a neural network model. The neural network has an internal CNN Tok2Vec layer and uses attention. | Name | Description | | -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `exclusive_classes` | Whether or not categories are mutually exclusive. ~~bool~~ | | `pretrained_vectors` | Whether or not pretrained vectors will be used in addition to the feature vectors. ~~bool~~ | | `width` | Output dimension of the feature encoding step. ~~int~~ | | `embed_size` | Input dimension of the feature encoding step. ~~int~~ | | `conv_depth` | Depth of the tok2vec layer. ~~int~~ | | `window_size` | The number of contextual vectors to [concatenate](https://thinc.ai/docs/api-layers#expand_window) from the left and from the right. ~~int~~ | | `ngram_size` | Determines the maximum length of the n-grams in the BOW model. For instance, `ngram_size=3`would give unigram, trigram and bigram features. ~~int~~ | | `dropout` | The dropout rate. ~~float~~ | | `nO` | Output dimension, determined by the number of different labels. If not set, the [`TextCategorizer`](/api/textcategorizer) component will set it when `initialize` is called. ~~Optional[int]~~ | | **CREATES** | The model using the architecture. ~~Model[List[Doc], Floats2d]~~ | ### spacy.HashEmbedCNN.v1 {#HashEmbedCNN_v1} Identical to [`spacy.HashEmbedCNN.v2`](/api/architectures#HashEmbedCNN) except using [`spacy.StaticVectors.v1`](#StaticVectors_v1) if vectors are included. ### spacy.MultiHashEmbed.v1 {#MultiHashEmbed_v1} Identical to [`spacy.MultiHashEmbed.v2`](/api/architectures#MultiHashEmbed) except with [`spacy.StaticVectors.v1`](#StaticVectors_v1) if vectors are included. ### spacy.CharacterEmbed.v1 {#CharacterEmbed_v1} Identical to [`spacy.CharacterEmbed.v2`](/api/architectures#CharacterEmbed) except using [`spacy.StaticVectors.v1`](#StaticVectors_v1) if vectors are included. ## Layers {#layers} These functions are available from `@spacy.registry.layers`. ### spacy.StaticVectors.v1 {#StaticVectors_v1} Identical to [`spacy.StaticVectors.v2`](/api/architectures#StaticVectors) except for the handling of tokens without vectors. `spacy.StaticVectors.v1` maps tokens without vectors to the final row in the vectors table, which causes the model predictions to change if new vectors are added to an existing vectors table. See more details in [issue #7662](https://github.com/explosion/spaCy/issues/7662#issuecomment-813925655). ## Loggers {#loggers} These functions are available from `@spacy.registry.loggers`. ### spacy.WandbLogger.v1 {#WandbLogger_v1} The first version of the [`WandbLogger`](/api/top-level#WandbLogger) did not yet support the `log_dataset_dir` and `model_log_interval` arguments. > #### Example config > > ```ini > [training.logger] > @loggers = "spacy.WandbLogger.v1" > project_name = "monitor_spacy_training" > remove_config_values = ["paths.train", "paths.dev", "corpora.train.path", "corpora.dev.path"] > ``` > > | Name | Description | > | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | > | `project_name` | The name of the project in the Weights & Biases interface. The project will be created automatically if it doesn't exist yet. ~~str~~ | > | `remove_config_values` | A list of values to include from the config before it is uploaded to W&B (default: empty). ~~List[str]~~ |
