This is a project use seq2seq model to play couplets (对对联)。 This project is written with Tensorflow. You can try the demo at https://ai.binwang.me/couplet.

Pre-requirements

• Tensorflow

• Python 3.6

• Dataset

Dataset

You will need some data to run this program, the dataset can be downloaded from this project.

** Note: If you are using your own dataset, you need to add <s> and <s> as the first two line into the vocabs file. **

Usage

Train

Open couplet.py and config the file locations and hyperparams. Then run python couplet.py to train the model. You can see the training loss and bleu score at Tensorbloard. You may need to re-config learning_rate when you find the loss stops descresing. Here is an example of the loss graph:

If you stoped the training and want to continue to train it. You can set restore_model to True and use m.train(<epoches>, start=<start>), which start is the steps you've already run.

I've trained the model on a Nivida GTX-1080 GPU for about 4 days.

Run the trained model

Open server.py and config the vocab_file and model_dir params. Then run python server.py will start a web service that can play couplet.

Examples

Here are some examples generated by this model:
