天然語言處理(Natural Language Processing,NLP)是計算機科學、人工智能和語言學領域交叉的分支學科,主要讓計算機處理或理解天然語言,如機器翻譯,問答系統等。可是因其在表示、學習、使用語言的複雜性,一般認爲 NLP 是困難的。近幾年,隨着深度學習(Deep Learning, DL)興起,人們不斷嘗試將 DL 應用在 NLP 上,被稱爲 Deep NLP,並取得了不少突破。其中就有 Seq2Seq 模型。 html
Seq2Seq Model是序列到序列( Sequence to Sequence )模型的簡稱,也被稱爲一種編碼器-解碼器(Encoder-Decoder)模型,分別基於2014發佈的兩篇論文:python
做者 Sutskever 分析了 Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) 因限制輸入和輸出序列的長度,沒法處理未知長度和不定長的序列;而且不少重要的問題都使用未知長度的序列表示的。從而論證在處理未知長度的序列問題上有必要提出新解決方式。因而,創新性的提出了 Seq2Seq 模型。下面讓咱們一塊兒看看這個模型究竟是什麼。 git
爲何說是創新性提出呢? 由於做者 Sutskever 通過了三次建模論證,最終才肯定下來 Seq2Seq 模型。並且模型的設計很是巧妙。讓咱們先回顧一下做者的探索經歷。
語言模型(Language Model, LM)是使用條件機率經過給定的詞去計算下一個詞。這是 Seq2Seq 模型的預測基礎。因爲序列之間是有上下文聯繫的,相似句子的承上啓下做用,加上語言模型的特色(條件機率),做者首先選用了 RNN-LM(Recurrent Neural Network Language Model, 循環神經網絡語言模型)。

到了咱們動手的時刻了,理解了上面 Seq2Seq 模型,讓咱們搭建一個簡單的中英文翻譯模型。 網絡
咱們使用 manythings 網站的一箇中英文數據集,現已經上傳到 Mo 平臺了,點擊查看。該數據集格式爲英文+tab+中文。
