TweetNLP

TweetNLP for all the NLP enthusiasts working on Twitter and social media in general! The python library tweetnlp provides a collection of useful tools to analyze/understand tweets such as sentiment analysis, emoji prediction, and named-entity recognition, powered by state-of-the-art language modeling specialized on social media.

News (December 2022): We presented a TweetNLP demo paper ("TweetNLP: Cutting-Edge Natural Language Processing for Social Media"), at EMNLP 2022. The final version can be found here.

Model & Dataset

In this section, you will learn how to get the models and datasets with tweetnlp. The models follow huggingface model and the datasets are in the format of huggingface datasets. Easy introductions of huggingface models and datasets should be found at huggingface webpage, so please check them if you are new to huggingface.

Tweet Classification

The classification module consists of six different tasks (Topic Classification, Sentiment Analysis, Irony Detection, Hate Speech Detection, Offensive Language Detection, Emoji Prediction, and Emotion Analysis). In each example, the model is instantiated by tweetnlp.load_model("task-name"), and run the prediction by passing a text or a list of texts as argument to the corresponding function.

Topic Classification: The aim of this task is, given a tweet to assign topics related to its content. The task is formed as a supervised multi-label classification problem where each tweet is assigned one or more topics from a total of 19 available topics. The topics were carefully curated based on Twitter trends with the aim to be broad and general and consist of classes such as: arts and culture, music, or sports. Our internally-annotated dataset contains over 10K manually-labeled tweets (check the paper here, or the huggingface dataset page).

import tweetnlp

# MULTI-LABEL MODEL 
model = tweetnlp.load_model('topic_classification')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.TopicClassification()`
model.topic("Jacob Collier is a Grammy-awarded English artist from London.")  # Or `model.predict`
>>> {'label': ['celebrity_&_pop_culture', 'music']}
# Note: the probability of the multi-label model is the output of sigmoid function on binary prediction whether each topic is positive or negative.

Sentiment Analysis: The sentiment analysis task integrated in TweetNLP is a simplified version where the goal is to predict the sentiment of a tweet with one of the three following labels: positive, neutral or negative. The base dataset for English is the unified TweetEval version of the Semeval-2017 dataset from the task on Sentiment Analysis in Twitter (check the paper here).

import tweetnlp

Irony Detection: This is a binary classification task where given a tweet, the goal is to detect whether it is ironic or not. It is based on the Irony Detection dataset from the SemEval 2018 task (check the paper here).

import tweetnlp

# MODEL
model = tweetnlp.load_model('irony')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.Irony()` 
model.irony('If you wanna look like a badass, have drama on social media')  # Or `model.predict`
>>> {'label': 'irony'}
model.irony('If you wanna look like a badass, have drama on social media', return_probability=True)
>>> {'label': 'irony', 'probability': {'non_irony': 0.08390884101390839, 'irony': 0.9160911440849304}} 

# GET DATASET

Hate Speech Detection: The hate speech dataset consists of detecting whether a tweet is hateful towards women or immigrants. It is based on a suite of unified hate speech detection datasets.

import tweetnlp

# MODEL
model = tweetnlp.load_model('hate')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.Hate()` 
model.hate('Whoever just unfollowed me you a bitch')  # Or `model.predict`
>>> {'label': 'not-hate'}
model.hate('Whoever just unfollowed me you a bitch', return_probability=True)

# GET DATASET
dataset, label2id = tweetnlp.load_dataset('hate')

Offensive Language Identification: This task consists in identifying whether some form of offensive language is present in a tweet. For our benchmark we rely on the SemEval2019 OffensEval dataset (check the paper here).

import tweetnlp

# MODEL
model = tweetnlp.load_model('offensive')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.Offensive()` 
model.offensive("All two of them taste like ass.")  # Or `model.predict`
>>> {'label': 'offensive'}
model.offensive("All two of them taste like ass.", return_probability=True)

# GET DATASET
dataset, label2id = tweetnlp.load_dataset('offensive')

Emoji Prediction: The goal of emoji prediction is to predict the final emoji on a given tweet. The dataset used to fine-tune our models is the TweetEval adaptation from the SemEval 2018 task on Emoji Prediction (check the paper here), including 20 emoji as labels (❤, 😍, 😂, 💕, 🔥, 😊, 😎, ✨, 💙, 😘, 📷, 🇺🇸, ☀, 💜, 😉, 💯, 😁, 🎄, 📸, 😜).

import tweetnlp

Named Entity Recognition

This module consists of a named-entity recognition (NER) model specifically trained for tweets. The model is instantiated by tweetnlp.load_model("ner"), and runs the prediction by giving a text or a list of texts as argument to the ner function (check the paper here, or the huggingface dataset page).

import tweetnlp

# MODEL
model = tweetnlp.load_model('ner')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.NER()` 
model.ner('Jacob Collier is a Grammy-awarded English artist from London.')  # Or `model.predict`
>>> [{'type': 'person', 'entity': 'Jacob Collier'}, {'type': 'event', 'entity': ' Grammy'}, {'type': 'location', 'entity': ' London'}]
# Note: the probability for the predicted entity is the mean of the probabilities over the sub-tokens representing the entity. 
model.ner('Jacob Collier is a Grammy-awarded English artist from London.', return_probability=True)  # Or `model.predict`
>>> [
  {'type': 'person', 'entity': 'Jacob Collier', 'probability': 0.9905318220456442},
  {'type': 'event', 'entity': ' Grammy', 'probability': 0.19164378941059113},
  {'type': 'location', 'entity': ' London', 'probability': 0.9607000350952148}
]

# GET DATASET
dataset, label2id = tweetnlp.load_dataset('ner')

Question Answering

This module consists of a question answering model specifically trained for tweets. The model is instantiated by tweetnlp.load_model("question_answering"), and runs the prediction by giving a question or a list of questions along with a context or a list of contexts as argument to the question_answering function (check the paper here, or the huggingface dataset page).

import tweetnlp

# MODEL
model = tweetnlp.load_model('question_answering')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.QuestionAnswering()` 
model.question_answering(
  question='who created the post as we know it today?',
  context="'So much of The Post is Ben,' Mrs. Graham said in 1994, three years after Bradlee retired as editor. 'He created it as we know it today.'— Ed O'Keefe (@edatpost) October 21, 2014"
)  # Or `model.predict`
>>> {'generated_text': 'ben'}

# GET DATASET
dataset = tweetnlp.load_dataset('question_answering')

Question Answer Generation

This module consists of a question & answer pair generation specifically trained for tweets. The model is instantiated by tweetnlp.load_model("question_answer_generation"), and runs the prediction by giving a context or a list of contexts as argument to the question_answer_generation function (check the paper here, or the huggingface dataset page).

import tweetnlp

# MODEL
model = tweetnlp.load_model('question_answer_generation')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.QuestionAnswerGeneration()` 
model.question_answer_generation(
  text="'So much of The Post is Ben,' Mrs. Graham said in 1994, three years after Bradlee retired as editor. 'He created it as we know it today.'— Ed O'Keefe (@edatpost) October 21, 2014"
)  # Or `model.predict`
>>> [
    {'question': 'who created the post?', 'answer': 'ben'},
    {'question': 'what did ben do in 1994?', 'answer': 'he retired as editor'}
]

# GET DATASET
dataset = tweetnlp.load_dataset('question_answer_generation')

Language Modeling

The masked language model predicts the masked token in the given sentence. This is instantiated by tweetnlp.load_model('language_model'), and runs the prediction by giving a text or a list of texts as argument to the mask_prediction function. Please make sure that each text has a <mask> token, since that is eventually the following by the objective of the model to predict.

import tweetnlp
model = tweetnlp.load_model('language_model')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.LanguageModel()` 
model.mask_prediction("How many more <mask> until opening day? 😩", best_n=2)  # Or `model.predict`
>>> {'best_tokens': ['days', 'hours'],
 'best_scores': [5.498564104033932e-11, 4.906026140893971e-10],
 'best_sentences': ['How many more days until opening day? 😩',
  'How many more hours until opening day? 😩']}

Tweet Embedding

The tweet embedding model produces a fixed length embedding for a tweet. The embedding represents the semantics by meaning of the tweet, and this can be used for semantic search of tweets by using the similarity between the embeddings. Model is instantiated by tweet_nlp.load_model('sentence_embedding'), and run the prediction by passing a text or a list of texts as argument to the embedding function.

Get Embedding

import tweetnlp
model = tweetnlp.load_model('sentence_embedding')  # Or `model = tweetnlp.SentenceEmbedding()` 

# Get sentence embedding
tweet = "I will never understand the decision making of the people of Alabama. Their new Senator is a definite downgrade. You have served with honor.  Well done."

Example

The following example will reproduce our irony model cardiffnlp/twitter-roberta-base-2021-124m-irony.

import logging
import tweetnlp

logging.basicConfig(format='%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s', level=logging.INFO, datefmt='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

# load dataset
dataset, label_to_id = tweetnlp.load_dataset("irony")
# load trainer class
trainer_class = tweetnlp.load_trainer("irony")
# setup trainer
trainer = trainer_class(
    language_model='cardiffnlp/twitter-roberta-base-2021-124m',  # language model to fine-tune
    dataset=dataset,
    label_to_id=label_to_id,
    max_length=128,
    split_test='test',
    split_train='train',
    split_validation='validation',
    output_dir='model_ckpt/irony' 
)
# start model fine-tuning with parameter optimization
trainer.train(
  eval_step=50,  # each `eval_step`, models are validated on the validation set 
  n_trials=10,  # number of trial at parameter optimization
  search_range_lr=[1e-6, 1e-4],  # define the search space for learning rate (min and max value)
  search_range_epoch=[1, 6],  # define the search space for epoch (min and max value)
  search_list_batch=[4, 8, 16, 32, 64]  # define the search space for batch size (list of integer to test) 
)
# evaluate model on the test set
trainer.evaluate()
>>> {
  "eval_loss": 1.3228046894073486,
  "eval_f1": 0.7959183673469388,
  "eval_f1_macro": 0.791350632069195,
  "eval_accuracy": 0.7959183673469388,
  "eval_runtime": 2.2267,
  "eval_samples_per_second": 352.084,
  "eval_steps_per_second": 44.01
}
# save model locally (saved at `{output_dir}/best_model` as default)
trainer.save_model()
# run prediction
trainer.predict('If you wanna look like a badass, have drama on social media')
>>> {'label': 'irony'}
# push your model on huggingface hub
trainer.push_to_hub(hf_organization='cardiffnlp', model_alias='twitter-roberta-base-2021-124m-irony')

The saved checkpoint can be loaded as a custom model as below.

import tweetnlp
model = tweetnlp.load_model('irony', model_name="model_ckpt/irony/best_model")

If split_validation is not given, trainer will do a single run with default parameters without parameter search.
