# Transformer with Emotion Classification

## Overview

This is a Transformer-based model designed for **emotion classification** and **dialogue act recognition** on the [DailyDialog](http://yanran.li/dailydialog) dataset. It processes multi-turn dialogues to predict emotional states and communication intentions. A **Stacked Autoencoder (SAE)** is included to regularize node usage, encouraging sparsity in feature representations.

While the model successfully predicts dialogue acts, it faces challenges in emotion classification, often outputting binary labels (0 or 1) due to imbalanced data or other limitations.

## Model Details

### Model Architecture
- **Transformer Encoder**: A standard Transformer encoder serves as the backbone for extracting contextual features from dialogues.
- **Batch Normalization**: Applied to normalize extracted features.
- **Dropout**: Used to reduce overfitting.
- **Stacked Autoencoder (SAE)**: Regularizes feature representations by encouraging sparsity, adding KL divergence loss during training.
- **Classification Heads**:
  - **Dialogue Act Classifier**: Predicts communication intentions (e.g., inform, question).
  - **Emotion Classifier**: Predicts one of the annotated emotions (e.g., happiness, sadness, anger).

### Input
- **sentence**: Single word or sentence

### Output
- **act_output**: Predicted dialogue act class.
- **emotion_output**: Predicted emotion class.

## Dataset: DailyDialog

The model is trained and evaluated on the [DailyDialog](http://yanran.li/dailydialog) dataset.  

### Dataset Features
- **Size**: 13,118 dialogues with an average of 8 turns per dialogue.
- **Annotations**:
  - **Dialogue Acts**: Intentions like inform, question, directive, and commissive.
  - **Emotions**: Labels such as happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, and no emotion.

## Usage

### Training
1. **Dataset Preparation**: Use tokenizers to preprocess the DailyDialog dataset into `input_ids` and `attention_mask`.
2. **Training Steps**:
   - Forward pass the input through the model.
   - Compute cross-entropy loss for the dialogue act and emotion classifiers.
   - Add KL divergence loss for SAE regularization.
   - Backpropagate and update parameters.

### Inference
- Input: Tokenized text sequences and attention masks.
- Output: Predicted dialogue acts and emotion classes.

---

## Limitations
- **Emotion Classification**: The model struggles to predict diverse emotional states, often outputting binary values (0 or 1).
- **Imbalanced Dataset**: Emotion labels in the DailyDialog dataset are not evenly distributed, which impacts model performance.
- **Limited Domain**: The dataset is focused on daily conversations, so the model may not generalize well to other dialogue contexts.

## Usage
```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer
import torch.nn.functional as F

# Load the model and tokenizer
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("agaresd/your-model-name")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("agaresd/your-model-name")

# Define the label mapping
label_mapping = {
    0: "no emotion",
    1: "anger ",
    2: "disgust ",
    3: "fear ",
    4: "Emotion: Happy",
    5: "Emotion: Sad",
    6: "Emotion: surprise"
}

# Input text
input_text = "happy"

# Tokenize and get model outputs
inputs = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model(**inputs)

# Get logits, apply softmax, and find the predicted class
logits = outputs.logits
probabilities = F.softmax(logits, dim=-1)
predicted_class = torch.argmax(probabilities, dim=-1).item()

# Map the predicted class to a word
predicted_label = label_mapping[predicted_class]
print(f"Input: {input_text}")
print(f"Predicted Label: {predicted_label}")
