|
| Two peer-reviewed papers in 2015 confirm that spaCy offers the
|
|
| #[strong fastest syntactic parser in the world] and that
|
|
| #[strong its accuracy is within 1% of the best] available. The few
|
|
| systems that are more accurate are 20× slower or more.
|
|
|
|
+aside("About the evaluation")
|
|
| The first of the evaluations was published by #[strong Yahoo! Labs] and
|
|
| #[strong Emory University], as part of a survey of current parsing
|
|
| technologies #[+a("https://aclweb.org/anthology/P/P15/P15-1038.pdf") (Choi et al., 2015)].
|
|
| Their results and subsequent discussions helped us develop a novel
|
|
| psychologically-motivated technique to improve spaCy's accuracy, which
|
|
| we published in joint work with Macquarie University
|
|
| #[+a("https://aclweb.org/anthology/D/D15/D15-1162.pdf") (Honnibal and Johnson, 2015)].

+h(3, "algorithm") Algorithm comparison

|
|
|
p
|
|
| In this section, we compare spaCy's algorithms to recently published
|
|
| systems, using some of the most popular benchmarks. These benchmarks are
|
|
| designed to help isolate the contributions of specific algorithmic
|
|
| decisions, so they promote slightly "idealised" conditions. Specifically,
|
|
| the text comes pre-processed with "gold standard" token and sentence
|
|
| boundaries. The data sets also tend to be fairly small, to help
|
|
| researchers iterate quickly. These conditions mean the models trained on
|
|
| these data sets are not always useful for practical purposes.

|
|
+h(4, "parse-accuracy-penn") Parse accuracy (Penn Treebank / Wall Street Journal)
|
|
|
|
p
|
|
| This is the "classic" evaluation, so it's the number parsing researchers
|
|
| are most easily able to put in context. However, it's quite far removed
|
|
| from actual usage: it uses sentences with gold-standard segmentation and
|
|
| tokenization, from a pretty specific type of text (articles from a single
|
|
| newspaper, 1984-1989).

| #[strong Set up:] 100,000 plain-text documents were streamed from an
|
|
| SQLite3 database, and processed with an NLP library, to one of three
|
|
| levels of detail — tokenization, tagging, or parsing. The tasks are
|
|
| additive: to parse the text you have to tokenize and tag it. The
|
|
| pre-processing was not subtracted from the times — we report the time
|
|
| required for the pipeline to complete. We report mean times per document,
