Keep in mind: KANs may not be proper for text classification (or even NLP?), at least in our research. Extra experiments must be conducted to prove this.

This repo uses Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) for text classification over GLUE tasks (RTE, CoLA, MRPC, etc). Our paper will be published in arXiv soon.

Requirements

Training

We use bert-base-cased as the pre-trained model for producing embeddings (pooled_outputs) in the training process. All models have 768 input size, 64 hidden neurons, and 2 output classes (0 & 1). The training was performed on Tesla V100 16GB, 10 epochs, lr = 2e-5 for all transformer models, and lr = 2e-3 for other models.

TransformerEfficientKAN

python run_train.py --mode "train" --network "trans_effi_kan" --em_model_name "bert-base-cased" --ds_name "mrpc" --epochs 10 --batch_size 4 --max_len 512 --n_size 1 --m_size 768 --n_hidden 64 --n_class 2

python run_train.py --mode "train" --network "trans_faster_kan" --em_model_name "bert-base-cased" --ds_name "mrpc" --epochs 10 --batch_size 4 --max_len 512 --n_size 1 --m_size 768 --n_hidden 64 --n_class 2

python run_train.py --mode "train" --network "mlp" --em_model_name "bert-base-cased" --ds_name "mrpc" --epochs 10 --batch_size 4 --max_len 512 --n_size 1 --m_size 768 --n_hidden 64 --n_class 2

TransformerClassifier (with Dropout and Linear)

python run_train.py --mode "train" --network "classifier" --em_model_name "bert-base-cased" --ds_name "mrpc" --epochs 10 --batch_size 4 --max_len 512 --n_size 1 --m_size 768 --n_hidden 64 --n_class 2

Original KAN

The training takes a very long time when the model infers outputs with an input size of 768 (outputs = KAN(texts)). Therefore, we must reduce the embedding size from 768 to 8 (n_size*m_size) by using reduce_size() in utils.py. The smaller the input size, the faster the training time.

def reduce_size(embeddings, n_size = 1, m_size = 8):
    second_dim = list(embeddings.shape)[-1]
    first_dim = list(embeddings.shape)[0]
    embeddings = torch.reshape(embeddings, (first_dim, int(second_dim/(n_size*m_size)), n_size*m_size))
    embeddings = torch.sum(embeddings, (1), keepdim = True).squeeze()
    return embeddings

Then, we can reluctantly run the training:

python run_train.py --mode "train" --network "kan" --em_model_name "bert-base-cased" --ds_name "wnli" --epochs 10 --batch_size 4 --max_len 512 --n_size 1 --m_size 8 --n_hidden 64 --n_class 2 --device "cpu"

Parameters

  • mode: working mode ("train" or "test")
  • network: type of model (efficientkan, TransformerClassifier, mlp)
  • em_model_name: the model offers embeddings (BERT)
  • ds_name: dataset name
  • epochs: the number of epochs
  • batch_size: the training batch size
  • max_len: the maximum length of input text
  • n_size, m_size: We consider the input size a matrix with n_size x m_size. For example, BERT offers 768 input size (1 x 768).
  • n_hidden: The number of hidden neurons. We use only 1 hidden layer. You can modify the code for more layers.
  • n_class: The number of classes. For GLUE tasks, there are only 2 classes (0 & 1)
  • embed_type: the type of embeddings (pool, last hidden, or weight)
  • device: use "cuda" or "cpu"
