# polyglot3 models

Pre-trained models for [polyglot3](https://github.com/dcipheranalytics/polyglot3),
the maintained Python 3 continuation of
[polyglot](https://github.com/aboSamoor/polyglot): word embeddings, named
entity recognition, part of speech tagging and sentiment lexicons.

These are the models originally published by the polyglot project at Stony
Brook University, whose download server is no longer online. This dataset
mirrors them, unchanged, so that polyglot3 can download them. It is maintained
by Dcipher Analytics AB (<info@dcipheranalytics.com>).

## Usage

The files are meant to be downloaded by polyglot3, which verifies each one
against the checksums in `index.json`:

```bash
pip install polyglot3
polyglot3 download LANG:tr        # every model for Turkish
```

```python
from polyglot3.text import Text

Text("Mustafa Kemal Atatürk Ankara'da yaşadı.").entities
# [I-PER(['Mustafa', 'Kemal', 'Atatürk'])]
```

See the [polyglot3 documentation](https://github.com/dcipheranalytics/polyglot3)
for details.

## Contents

| Package       | Contents                                                   | Languages | Size   |
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------------|-----------|--------|
| `embeddings2` | 64-dimensional word embeddings (100,000 words), NER/POS input | 25     | 635 MB |
| `ner2`        | named entity recognition (person, location, organization)  | 25        | 7 MB   |
| `pos2`        | part of speech tagging (universal POS tags)                | 7         | 1.5 MB |
| `sentiment2`  | word polarity lexicons (positive, neutral, negative)       | 136       | 1.4 MB |

Each package is a single file at `<task>/<language>/<file>`, e.g.
`ner2/tr/tr_ner.pkl.tar.bz2`. `index.json` lists every file with its size and
MD5.

The original polyglot project published models for more languages. This
mirror only contains the ones above.

## Source and license

The models were created by Rami Al-Rfou, Bryan Perozzi, Vivek Kulkarni,
Yanqing Chen, Steven Skiena and colleagues at the Data Science Lab, Stony
Brook University, and released with
[polyglot](https://github.com/aboSamoor/polyglot). They were trained on
Wikipedia (embeddings, NER, POS) and derived from it and other resources
(sentiment); see the papers below.

The polyglot code is licensed under GPLv3. The models are redistributed here
under the terms of their original release; refer to the
[polyglot project](https://github.com/aboSamoor/polyglot) for those terms. If
you are an author of these models and have questions about this mirror,
