This model provides a GPT-2 language model trained with SimCTG on the English Wikipedia based on our paper A Contrastive Framework for Neural Text Generation.

We provide a detailed tutorial on how to apply SimCTG and Contrastive Search in our project repo. In the following, we illustrate a brief tutorial on how to use our approach to perform text generation.

1. Installation of SimCTG:

pip install simctg --upgrade

2. Initialize SimCTG Model:

python

import torch
# load SimCTG language model
from simctg.simctggpt import SimCTGGPT
model_name = r'cambridgeltl/simctg_english_wikipedia'
model = SimCTGGPT(model_name)
model.eval()
tokenizer = model.tokenizer

3. Prepare the Text Prefix:

python

prefix_text = r"Insect farming is the practice of raising and breeding insects as livestock, also referred to as minilivestock or micro stock. Insects may be farmed for the commodities"
print ('Prefix is: {}'.format(prefix_text))
tokens = tokenizer.tokenize(prefix_text)
input_ids = tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids(tokens)
input_ids = torch.LongTensor(input_ids).view(1,-1)

4. Generate Text with Contrastive Search:

python

beam_width, alpha, decoding_len = 5, 0.6, 128
output = model.fast_contrastive_search(input_ids=input_ids, beam_width=beam_width, 
                                       alpha=alpha, decoding_len=decoding_len) 
print("Output:\n" + 100 * '-')
print(tokenizer.decode(output))
'''
  Prefix is: Insect farming is the practice of raising and breeding insects as livestock, also referred to as minilivestock or 
             micro stock. Insects may be farmed for the commodities
  Output:
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Insect farming is the practice of raising and breeding insects as livestock, also referred to as minilivestock or micro stock. 
  Insects may be farmed for the commodities they produce, such as honey, corn, sorghum, and other crops. In some cases, the 
  production of insects is a way to increase income for the owner or his family. This type of farming has been described as "an 
  economic system that benefits all people regardless of race, sex, or social status" (p. 9). A large number of farmers in North 
  America, Europe, and South America have used the method of farming for food production in order to feed their families and livestock. 
  The most common method of farming is by hand-cropping, which consists of cutting a hole in the ground and using a saw
