title: SpanCategorizer
|
|
tag: class,experimental
|
|
source: spacy/pipeline/spancat.py
|
|
new: 3.1
|
|
teaser: 'Pipeline component for labeling potentially overlapping spans of text'
|
|
api_base_class: /api/pipe
|
|
api_string_name: spancat
|
|
api_trainable: true
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
A span categorizer consists of two parts: a [suggester function](#suggesters)
|
|
that proposes candidate spans, which may or may not overlap, and a labeler model
|
|
that predicts zero or more labels for each candidate.
|
|
|
|
Predicted spans will be saved in a [`SpanGroup`](/api/spangroup) on the doc.
|
|
Individual span scores can be found in `spangroup.attrs["scores"]`.
|
|
|
|
## Assigned Attributes {#assigned-attributes}
|
|
|
|
Predictions will be saved to `Doc.spans[spans_key]` as a
|
|
[`SpanGroup`](/api/spangroup). The scores for the spans in the `SpanGroup` will
|
|
be saved in `SpanGroup.attrs["scores"]`.
|
|
|
|
`spans_key` defaults to `"sc"`, but can be passed as a parameter.
|
|
|
|
| Location | Value |
|
|
| -------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `Doc.spans[spans_key]` | The annotated spans. ~~SpanGroup~~ |
|
|
| `Doc.spans[spans_key].attrs["scores"]` | The score for each span in the `SpanGroup`. ~~Floats1d~~ |
|
|
|
|
## Config and implementation {#config}
|
|
|
|
The default config is defined by the pipeline component factory and describes
|
|
how the component should be configured. You can override its settings via the
|
|
`config` argument on [`nlp.add_pipe`](/api/language#add_pipe) or in your
|
|
[`config.cfg` for training](/usage/training#config). See the
|
|
[model architectures](/api/architectures) documentation for details on the
|
|
architectures and their arguments and hyperparameters.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> from spacy.pipeline.spancat import DEFAULT_SPANCAT_MODEL
|
|
> config = {
|
|
> "threshold": 0.5,
|
|
> "spans_key": "labeled_spans",
|
|
> "max_positive": None,
|
|
> "model": DEFAULT_SPANCAT_MODEL,
|
|
> "suggester": {"@misc": "spacy.ngram_suggester.v1", "sizes": [1, 2, 3]},
|
|
> }
|

| Setting | Description |
|
|
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `suggester` | A function that [suggests spans](#suggesters). Spans are returned as a ragged array with two integer columns, for the start and end positions. Defaults to [`ngram_suggester`](#ngram_suggester). ~~Callable[[Iterable[Doc], Optional[Ops]], Ragged]~~ |
|
|
| `model` | A model instance that is given a a list of documents and `(start, end)` indices representing candidate span offsets. The model predicts a probability for each category for each span. Defaults to [SpanCategorizer](/api/architectures#SpanCategorizer). ~~Model[Tuple[List[Doc], Ragged], Floats2d]~~ |
|
|
| `spans_key` | Key of the [`Doc.spans`](/api/doc#spans) dict to save the spans under. During initialization and training, the component will look for spans on the reference document under the same key. Defaults to `"spans"`. ~~str~~ |

## SpanCategorizer.\_\_init\_\_ {#init tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> # Construction via add_pipe with default model
|
|
> spancat = nlp.add_pipe("spancat")
|
|

|
|
> spancat = SpanCategorizer(nlp.vocab, model, suggester)
|
|

|
|
|
|
Create a new pipeline instance. In your application, you would normally use a
|
|
shortcut for this and instantiate the component using its string name and
|
|
[`nlp.add_pipe`](/api/language#create_pipe).
|
|
|
|
| Name | Description |
|
|
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| `vocab` | The shared vocabulary. ~~Vocab~~ |
|
|
| `model` | A model instance that is given a a list of documents and `(start, end)` indices representing candidate span offsets. The model predicts a probability for each category for each span. ~~Model[Tuple[List[Doc], Ragged], Floats2d]~~ |
|
|
| `suggester` | A function that [suggests spans](#suggesters). Spans are returned as a ragged array with two integer columns, for the start and end positions. ~~Callable[[Iterable[Doc], Optional[Ops]], Ragged]~~ |
|

|
|
| _keyword-only_ | |

|
|
|
|
## SpanCategorizer.\_\_call\_\_ {#call tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Apply the pipe to one document. The document is modified in place, and returned.
|
|
This usually happens under the hood when the `nlp` object is called on a text
|
|
and all pipeline components are applied to the `Doc` in order. Both
|
|
[`__call__`](/api/spancategorizer#call) and [`pipe`](/api/spancategorizer#pipe)
|
|
delegate to the [`predict`](/api/spancategorizer#predict) and
|
|
[`set_annotations`](/api/spancategorizer#set_annotations) methods.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> doc = nlp("This is a sentence.")
|
|
> spancat = nlp.add_pipe("spancat")
|
|
> # This usually happens under the hood
|
|
> processed = spancat(doc)
|
|
> ```

|
| Name | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | -------------------------------- |
|
|
| `doc` | The document to process. ~~Doc~~ |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | The processed document. ~~Doc~~ |
|
|
|
|
## SpanCategorizer.pipe {#pipe tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Apply the pipe to a stream of documents. This usually happens under the hood
|
|
when the `nlp` object is called on a text and all pipeline components are
|
|
applied to the `Doc` in order. Both [`__call__`](/api/spancategorizer#call) and
|
|
[`pipe`](/api/spancategorizer#pipe) delegate to the
|
|
[`predict`](/api/spancategorizer#predict) and
|
|
[`set_annotations`](/api/spancategorizer#set_annotations) methods.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> spancat = nlp.add_pipe("spancat")
|
|
> for doc in spancat.pipe(docs, batch_size=50):
|

| **YIELDS** | The processed documents in order. ~~Doc~~ |
|
|
|
|
## SpanCategorizer.initialize {#initialize tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Initialize the component for training. `get_examples` should be a function that
|
|
returns an iterable of [`Example`](/api/example) objects. The data examples are
|
|
used to **initialize the model** of the component and can either be the full
|
|
training data or a representative sample. Initialization includes validating the
|
|
network,
|
|
[inferring missing shapes](https://thinc.ai/docs/usage-models#validation) and
|
|
setting up the label scheme based on the data. This method is typically called
|
|
by [`Language.initialize`](/api/language#initialize) and lets you customize
|
|
arguments it receives via the
|
|
[`[initialize.components]`](/api/data-formats#config-initialize) block in the
|
|
config.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> spancat = nlp.add_pipe("spancat")
|
|
> spancat.initialize(lambda: [], nlp=nlp)
|
