Latvian SpaCy Model: lv_spaCy_CNN

GitHub Repo

https://github.com/LazyBomb-SIA/LV_spaCy_CNN

Overview

This is a spaCy pipeline for Latvian, built with the spaCy Tok2Vec CNN backbone.

Performance Comparison

Model	POS	Tag	Morph	UAS	LAS	Lemma Acc	Summary (equal weights)
spaCy (this model)	0.9457	0.8665	0.9046	0.8076	0.7509	0.8203	84.93%
Stanza	0.9688	0.8987	0.9449	0.8791	0.8354	0.9539	91.35%
UDPipe	0.9207	0.7960	0.3403	0.0791	0.0660	0.8911	51.55%

Details please check cell 12 and 13 here:

https://github.com/LazyBomb-SIA/LV_spaCy_CNN/blob/main/lv_spacy_cnn.ipynb

It includes the following components:

Tok2Vec (spaCy Tok2Vec CNN)
Tagger
Morphologizer
Parser
Sentence Segmenter (senter)
Lemmatizer

Model type: spaCy CNN Pipeline Language: Latvian (lv)
Recommended hardware: CPU for small-scale use, GPU recommended for faster inference.

Training Data

The model was trained on the Latvian UD Treebank v2.16, which is derived from the Latvian Treebank (LVTB) created at the University of Latvia, Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (AI Lab).

Dataset source: UD Latvian LVTB
License: CC BY-SA 4.0
Data splits:
- Train: 15,055 sentences
- Dev: 2,080 sentences
- Test: 2,396 sentences

Usage

You can either:

Download the model directly from the Hugging Face Hub
Using huggingface_hub.snapshot_download, the model files will be automatically fetched and cached locally.

python
1import spacy 2from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download 3 4# Load the pipeline 5model_dir = snapshot_download(repo_id="JesseHuang922/lv_spaCy_CNN", repo_type="model") 6nlp = spacy.load(model_dir)
Install from the pre-built wheel package
Download the wheel file (lv_spacy_cnn-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl) and install it into your virtual environment with:
```
```bash
pip install lv_spacy_cnn-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl
```
