Load student model checkpoint to evaluate over test set to reproduce our result.

cd sstc/tasks/semi-roberta
python evaluate.py \

Reproduce paper results step by step

1.Train in-domain LM based on RoBERTa

1.1 binarize 3.4M reviews data

You should modify the shell according to your paths. The result binarize data will be saved in [REVIEWS_PATH]/bin

cd sstc/tasks/roberta_lm
bash binarize.sh

1.2 train RoBERTa-large (or small, as you wish) over 3.4M reviews data

cd sstc/tasks/roberta_lm
python trainer.py \
--roberta_path [VANILLA_ROBERTA_LARGE_PATH] \
--data_dir [REVIEWS_PATH]/bin \
--gpus=0,1,2,3 \
--save_path [PRETRAIN_ROBERTA_CK_PATH] \
--val_check_interval 0.1 \
--precision 16 \
--batch_size 10 \
--distributed_backend=ddp \
--accumulate_grad_batches=50 \
--adam_epsilon 1e-6 \
--weight_decay 0.01 \
--warmup_steps 10000 \
--workers 8 \
--lr 2e-5

Training checkpoints will be saved in [PRETRAIN_ROBERTA_CK_PATH],
find the best checkpoint and convert it to HuggingFace bin format,
The relevant code can be found in sstc/tasks/roberta_lm/trainer.py.
Save the pretrain bin model at [PRETRAIN_MODELS]\semi-roberta-large,
or you can just download the model we trained.

2.train the teacher model

2.1 binarize IMDB dataset.

cd sstc/tasks/semi_roberta/scripts
bash binarize_imdb.sh

You can run the above code to binarize IMDB data, or you can just use the file we binarized in [IMDB_DATA_PATH]\bin

2.2 train the teacher model

cd sstc/tasks/semi_roberta
python trainer.py \
--mode train_teacher \
--roberta_path [PRETRAIN_MODELS]\semi-roberta-large \
--imdb_data_path [IMDB_DATA_PATH]/bin \
--gpus=0,1,2,3 \
--save_path [ROOT_SAVE_PATH] \
--precision 16 \
--batch_size 10 \
--min_epochs 10 \
--patience 3 \
--lr 3e-5

After training, teacher model checkpoint will be save in [ROOT_SAVE_PATH]/train_teacher_checkpoint.
The teacher model we trained had an accuracy rate of 96.2% on the test set.
The download link of teacher model checkpoint can be found in quick tour part.

3.label the unlabeled in-domain data U

3.1 label 3.4M data

Use the teacher model that you trained in previous step to label 3.4M reviews data,
notice that [ROOT_SAVE_PATH] should be the same as previous setting.
The labeled data will be save in [ROOT_SAVE_PATH]\predictions.

cd sstc/tasks/roberta_lm
python trainer.py \
--mode train_teacher \
--roberta_path [PRETRAIN_ROBERTA_PATH] \
--reviews_data_path [REVIEWS_PATH]/bin \
--best_teacher_checkpoint_path [CHECKPOINTS]/roberta-large/train_teacher_checkpoint/***.ckpt \
--gpus=0,1,2,3 \
--save_path [ROOT_SAVE_PATH]

3.2 select the top-K data points

Firstly, we random sample 3M data from 3.4M reviews data as U',
then we select 1M data from U' with the highest score as D',
finally, we concat the IMDB train data(D) and D' as train data for student model.
The student train data will be saved in [ROOT_SAVE_PATH]\student_data\train.txt,
or you can use the data we provide in [STUDENT_DATA_PATH]/student_data_large

cd sstc/tasks/roberta_lm
python data_selector.py \
--imdb_data_path [IMDB_DATA_PATH] \
--save_path [ROOT_SAVE_PATH]

4.train the student model

4.1 binarize the dataset

You can use the same script in 3.1 to binarize student train data in [ROOT_SAVE_PATH]\student_data\train.txt

4.1 train the student model

use can use the training data we provide in [STUDENT_DATA_PATH]/student_data_large/bin or use your own training data in
[ROOT_SAVE_PATH]\student_data\bin, make sure you set the right student_data_path.

cd sstc/tasks/semi-roberta
python trainer.py \
--mode train_student \
--roberta_path [PRETRAIN_MODELS]\semi-roberta-large \
--imdb_data_path [IMDB_DATA_PATH]/bin \
--student_data_path [STUDENT_DATA_PATH]/student_data_large/bin \
--save_path [ROOT_SAVE_PATH] \
--batch_size=10 \
--precision 16 \
--lr=2e-5 \
--warmup_steps 40000 \
--gpus=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 \
--accumulate_grad_batches=50

After training, student model checkpoint will be save in [ROOT_SAVE_PATH]/train_student_checkpoint.
The student model we trained had an accuracy rate of 96.6% on the test set.
The download link of student model checkpoint can be found in Quick tour part.
