use*_*193 14 python frequency tokenize time-complexity nltk
我有一个方法,它接受一个String参数,并使用NLTK将字符串分解为句子,然后分成单词.然后,它将每个单词转换为小写,最后创建每个单词频率的字典.
import nltk
from collections import Counter
def freq(string):
f = Counter()
sentence_list = nltk.tokenize.sent_tokenize(string)
for sentence in sentence_list:
words = nltk.word_tokenize(sentence)
words = [word.lower() for word in words]
for word in words:
f[word] += 1
return f
我应该进一步优化上面的代码,以加快预处理时间,并且不确定如何这样做.返回值显然应该与上面的完全相同,所以我希望使用nltk虽然没有明确要求这样做.
有什么方法可以加快上面的代码？谢谢.

如果您只想要一个平坦的令牌列表,请注意隐式word_tokenize调用sent_tokenize,请参阅https://github.com/nltk/nltk/blob/develop/nltk/tokenize/ init .py#L98
_treebank_word_tokenize = TreebankWordTokenizer().tokenize
def word_tokenize(text, language='english'):
"""
Return a tokenized copy of *text*,
using NLTK's recommended word tokenizer
(currently :class:`.TreebankWordTokenizer`
along with :class:`.PunktSentenceTokenizer`
for the specified language).
:param text: text to split into sentences
:param language: the model name in the Punkt corpus
"""
return [token for sent in sent_tokenize(text, language)
for token in _treebank_word_tokenize(sent)]
以棕色语料库为例,用Counter(word_tokenize(string_corpus)):
>>> from collections import Counter
>>> from nltk.corpus import brown
>>> from nltk import sent_tokenize, word_tokenize
>>> string_corpus = brown.raw() # Plaintext, str type.
>>> start = time.time(); fdist = Counter(word_tokenize(string_corpus)); end = time.time() - start
>>> end
12.662328958511353
>>> fdist.most_common(5)
[(u',', 116672), (u'/', 89031), (u'the/at', 62288), (u'.', 60646), (u'./', 48812)]
>>> sum(fdist.values())
1423314
使用规格在我的机器上耗费了大约140万个单词(不保存标记化语料库)12秒

首先保存标记化的语料库tokenized_corpus = [word_tokenize(sent) for sent in sent_tokenize(string_corpus)],然后使用Counter(chain*(tokenized_corpus)):
>>> from itertools import chain
>>> start = time.time(); tokenized_corpus = [word_tokenize(sent) for sent in sent_tokenize(string_corpus)]; fdist = Counter(chain(*tokenized_corpus)); end = time.time() - start
>>> end

运用 ToktokTokenizer()
>>> from collections import Counter
>>> import time
>>> from itertools import chain
>>> from nltk.corpus import brown
>>> from nltk import sent_tokenize, word_tokenize
>>> from nltk.tokenize import ToktokTokenizer
>>> toktok = ToktokTokenizer()
>>> string_corpus = brown.raw()
>>> start = time.time(); tokenized_corpus = [toktok.tokenize(sent) for sent in sent_tokenize(string_corpus)]; fdist = Counter(chain(*tokenized_corpus)); end = time.time() - start
>>> end
10.00472116470337
使用MosesTokenizer():
>>> from nltk.tokenize.moses import MosesTokenizer
>>> moses = MosesTokenizer()
>>> start = time.time(); tokenized_corpus = [moses.tokenize(sent) for sent in sent_tokenize(string_corpus)]; fdist = Counter(chain(*tokenized_corpus)); end = time.time() - start
>>> end
30.783339023590088
>>> start = time.time(); tokenized_corpus = [moses.tokenize(sent) for sent in sent_tokenize(string_corpus)]; fdist = Counter(chain(*tokenized_corpus)); end = time.time() - start
>>> end
30.559681177139282
为何使用 MosesTokenizer
它以这样的方式实现,即有一种方法可以将令牌反转回字符串,即"detokenize".
>>> from nltk.tokenize.moses import MosesTokenizer, MosesDetokenizer
>>> t, d = MosesTokenizer(), MosesDetokenizer()
>>> sent = "This ain't funny. It's actually hillarious, yet double Ls. | [] < > [ ] & You're gonna shake it off? Don't?"
>>> expected_tokens = [u'This', u'ain', u''t', u'funny.', u'It', u''s', u'actually', u'hillarious', u',', u'yet', u'double', u'Ls.', u'|', u'[', u']', u'<', u'>', u'[', u']', u'&', u'You', u''re', u'gonna', u'shake', u'it', u'off', u'?', u'Don', u''t', u'?']
>>> expected_detokens = "This ain't funny. It's actually hillarious, yet double Ls. | [] < > [] & You're gonna shake it off? Don't?"
>>> tokens = t.tokenize(sent)
>>> tokens == expected_tokens
True
>>> detokens = d.detokenize(tokens)
>>> " ".join(detokens) == expected_detokens
True
使用ReppTokenizer():
>>> repp = ReppTokenizer('/home/alvas/repp')
>>> start = time.time(); sentences = sent_tokenize(string_corpus); tokenized_corpus = repp.tokenize_sents(sentences); fdist = Counter(chain(*tokenized_corpus)); end = time.time() - start
>>> end
76.44129395484924
为何使用ReppTokenizer？
它返回原始字符串中的标记的偏移量.
>>> sents = ['Tokenization is widely regarded as a solved problem due to the high accuracy that rulebased tokenizers achieve.' ,
... 'But rule-based tokenizers are hard to maintain and their rules language specific.' ,
... 'We evaluated our method on three languages and obtained error rates of 0.27% (English), 0.35% (Dutch) and 0.76% (Italian) for our best models.'
... ]
>>> tokenizer = ReppTokenizer('/home/alvas/repp/') # doctest: +SKIP
>>> for sent in sents: # doctest: +SKIP
... tokenizer.tokenize(sent) # doctest: +SKIP
...

TL; DR
不同标记器的优点
word_tokenize() 隐含地调用 sent_tokenize()ToktokTokenizer() 是最快的MosesTokenizer() 能够使文字脱节ReppTokenizer() 能够提供令牌偏移问:是否有一个快速的标记器,它可以解除标记并为我提供偏移,并在NLTK中进行句子标记化？
答:我不这么认为,试试gensim或spacy.
您的代码隐式地创建了很多可能很长的list实例，这些实例不需要在那里，例如：
words = [word.lower() for word in words]
使用[...]用于列表理解的语法为在输入中找到的n 个标记创建一个长度为n的列表，但是您要做的只是获取每个标记的频率，而不是实际存储它们：
f[word] += 1
因此，您应该改为使用生成器：
words = (word.lower() for word in words)
类似地，nltk.tokenize.sent_tokenize并且nltk.tokenize.word_tokenize似乎都产生列表作为输出，这是不必要的再次; 尝试使用更底层的函数，例如nltk.tokenize.api.StringTokenizer.span_tokenize，它仅生成一个迭代器，该迭代器为您的输入流生成令牌偏移量，即代表每个令牌的输入字符串索引对。
这是不使用中间列表的示例：
def freq(string):
'''
@param string: The string to get token counts for. Note that this should already have been normalized if you wish it to be so.
@return: A new Counter instance representing the frequency of each token found in the input string.
'''
spans = nltk.tokenize.WhitespaceTokenizer().span_tokenize(string)
# Yield the relevant slice of the input string representing each individual token in the sequence
tokens = (string[begin : end] for (begin, end) in spans)
return Counter(tokens)
免责声明：我尚未对此进行word_tokenize概要分析，因此，例如NLTK员工可能做出了飞快但被忽视的事情span_tokenize；始终对您的应用程序进行概要分析以确保。
当生成器就足够时不要使用列表：每次创建列表只是为了在使用一次后将其丢弃，上帝会杀死一只小猫。
