"""
Sequence-to-Sequence Modeling with nn.Transformer and TorchText
===============================================================

This is a tutorial on how to train a sequence-to-sequence model
that uses the
`nn.Transformer <https://pytorch.org/docs/master/nn.html?highlight=nn%20transformer#torch.nn.Transformer>`__ module.

PyTorch 1.2 release includes a standard transformer module based on the
paper `Attention is All You
Need <https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.03762.pdf>`__. The transformer model
has been proved to be superior in quality for many sequence-to-sequence
problems while being more parallelizable. The ``nn.Transformer`` module
relies entirely on an attention mechanism (another module recently
implemented as `nn.MultiheadAttention <https://pytorch.org/docs/master/nn.html?highlight=multiheadattention#torch.nn.MultiheadAttention>`__) to draw global dependencies
between input and output. The ``nn.Transformer`` module is now highly
modularized such that a single component (like `nn.TransformerEncoder <https://pytorch.org/docs/master/nn.html?highlight=nn%20transformerencoder#torch.nn.TransformerEncoder>`__
in this tutorial) can be easily adapted/composed.

######################################################################
# In this tutorial, we train ``nn.TransformerEncoder`` model on a
# language modeling task. The language modeling task is to assign a
# probability for the likelihood of a given word (or a sequence of words)
# to follow a sequence of words. A sequence of tokens are passed to the embedding
# layer first, followed by a positional encoding layer to account for the order
# of the word (see the next paragraph for more details). The
# ``nn.TransformerEncoder`` consists of multiple layers of
# `nn.TransformerEncoderLayer <https://pytorch.org/docs/master/nn.html?highlight=transformerencoderlayer#torch.nn.TransformerEncoderLayer>`__. Along with the input sequence, a square
# attention mask is required because the self-attention layers in
# ``nn.TransformerEncoder`` are only allowed to attend the earlier positions in
# the sequence. For the language modeling task, any tokens on the future
# positions should be masked. To have the actual words, the output
# of ``nn.TransformerEncoder`` model is sent to the final Linear
# layer, which is followed by a log-Softmax function.

# The training process uses Wikitext-2 dataset from ``torchtext``. The
# vocab object is built based on the train dataset and is used to numericalize
# tokens into tensors. Starting from sequential data, the ``batchify()``
# function arranges the dataset into columns, trimming off any tokens remaining
# after the data has been divided into batches of size ``batch_size``.
# For instance, with the alphabet as the sequence (total length of 26)
# and a batch size of 4, we would divide the alphabet into 4 sequences of
# length 6:
#
# .. math::
#   \begin{bmatrix}
#   \text{A} & \text{B} & \text{C} & \ldots & \text{X} & \text{Y} & \text{Z}
#   \end{bmatrix}
#   \Rightarrow
#   \begin{bmatrix}
#   \begin{bmatrix}\text{A} \\ \text{B} \\ \text{C} \\ \text{D} \\ \text{E} \\ \text{F}\end{bmatrix} &
#   \begin{bmatrix}\text{G} \\ \text{H} \\ \text{I} \\ \text{J} \\ \text{K} \\ \text{L}\end{bmatrix} &
#   \begin{bmatrix}\text{M} \\ \text{N} \\ \text{O} \\ \text{P} \\ \text{Q} \\ \text{R}\end{bmatrix} &
#   \begin{bmatrix}\text{S} \\ \text{T} \\ \text{U} \\ \text{V} \\ \text{W} \\ \text{X}\end{bmatrix}
#   \end{bmatrix}
#
# These columns are treated as independent by the model, which means that
# the dependence of ``G`` and ``F`` can not be learned, but allows more
# efficient batch processing.
