MacBERT for Chinese Spelling Correction(macbert4csc) Model

中文拼写纠错模型

macbert4csc-base-chinese evaluate SIGHAN2015 test data：

Char Level: precision=0.9372, recall=0.8640 F1=0.8991
Sentence Level: precision:0.8264, recall:0.7366, f1:0.7789

由于训练使用的数据使用了SIGHAN2015的训练集（复现paper），在SIGHAN2015的测试集上达到SOTA水平。

Usage

本项目开源在中文文本纠错项目：pycorrector，可支持macbert4csc模型，通过如下命令调用：

from pycorrector.macbert.macbert_corrector import MacBertCorrector

nlp = MacBertCorrector("shibing624/macbert4csc-base-chinese").macbert_correct

i = nlp('今天新情很好')
print(i)

当然，你也可使用官方的huggingface/transformers调用：

Please use 'Bert' related functions to load this model!

import operator
import torch
from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertForMaskedLM

tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("shibing624/macbert4csc-base-chinese")
model = BertForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("shibing624/macbert4csc-base-chinese")

texts = ["今天新情很好", "你找到你最喜欢的工作，我也很高心。"]
outputs = model(**tokenizer(texts, padding=True, return_tensors='pt'))

def get_errors(corrected_text, origin_text):
    details = []
    for i, ori_char in enumerate(origin_text):
        if ori_char == ' ':
            # add blank space 
            corrected_text = corrected_text[:i] + ' ' + corrected_text[i:]
            continue
        if i >= len(corrected_text):
            continue
        if ori_char != corrected_text[i]:
            details.append((ori_char, corrected_text[i], i, i + 1))
    details = sorted(details, key=operator.itemgetter(2))
    return corrected_text, details

result = []
for ids, text in zip(outputs.logits, texts):
    _text = tokenizer.decode(torch.argmax(ids, dim=-1), skip_special_tokens=True).replace(' ', '')
    corrected_text = _text[:len(text)]
    corrected_text, details = get_errors(corrected_text, text)
    print(text, ' => ', corrected_text, details)
    result.append((corrected_text, details))
print(result)

output:

今天新情很好  =>  今天心情很好 [('新', '心', 2, 3)]
你找到你最喜欢的工作，我也很高心。  =>  你找到你最喜欢的工作，我也很高兴。 [('心', '兴', 15, 16)]

About MacBERT

MacBERT is an improved BERT with novel MLM as correction pre-training task, which mitigates the discrepancy of pre-training and fine-tuning.

Here is an example of our pre-training task.

task	Example
Original Sentence	we use a language model to predict the probability of the next word.
MLM	we use a language [M] to [M] ##di ##ct the pro [M] ##bility of the next word .
Whole word masking	we use a language [M] to [M] [M] [M] the [M] [M] [M] of the next word .
N-gram masking	we use a [M] [M] to [M] [M] [M] the [M] [M] [M] [M] [M] next word .
MLM as correction	we use a text system to ca ##lc ##ulate the po ##si ##bility of the next word .

Except for the new pre-training task, we also incorporate the following techniques.

Whole Word Masking (WWM)
N-gram masking
Sentence-Order Prediction (SOP)

Note that our MacBERT can be directly replaced with the original BERT as there is no differences in the main neural architecture.
