Example Project: Sentiment Analysis with Transformers

This example demonstrates how to extend the base repository into a practical deep learning project using Hugging Face Transformers for sentiment analysis.

Objective

Build an AI model that:

  1. Receives text (via CLI, API, or notebook)
  2. Predicts sentiment (positive, negative, neutral)
  3. Uses a Transformer architecture (DistilBERT, BERT-base, RoBERTa)
  4. Is extendable for fine-tuning, evaluation, and deployment

Step 1: Dataset

Use a public dataset like IMDB or TweetEval:

from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("imdb")
print(dataset["train"][0])

Step 2: Tokenization

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("distilbert-base-uncased")

def tokenize(batch):
    return tokenizer(batch["text"], padding=True, truncation=True)

dataset_encoded = dataset.map(tokenize, batched=True, batch_size=None)

Step 3: Model

from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(
    "distilbert-base-uncased",
    num_labels=2
)

Step 4: Training (Fine-tuning)

from transformers import TrainingArguments, Trainer
import evaluate

accuracy = evaluate.load("accuracy")

def compute_metrics(pred):
    predictions, labels = pred
    predictions = predictions.argmax(axis=1)
    return accuracy.compute(predictions=predictions, references=labels)

training_args = TrainingArguments(
    output_dir="./results",
    evaluation_strategy="epoch",
    save_strategy="epoch",
    learning_rate=2e-5,
    per_device_train_batch_size=8,
    num_train_epochs=2,
    weight_decay=0.01,
)

trainer = Trainer(
    model=model,
    args=training_args,
    train_dataset=dataset_encoded["train"].shuffle(seed=42).select(range(4000)),
    eval_dataset=dataset_encoded["test"].select(range(1000)),
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    compute_metrics=compute_metrics
)

trainer.train()

Step 5: Inference

from transformers import pipeline

classifier = pipeline("sentiment-analysis", model="./results/checkpoint-1000")

text = "I love this new project!"
result = classifier(text)
print(result)

Output:

[{'label': 'POSITIVE', 'score': 0.998}]

Step 6: Evaluation & Improvements

  • Add metrics like F1, precision, and recall.
  • Try different architectures: roberta-base, bert-base-cased, etc.
  • Visualize learning curves or confusion matrix.
  • Train on GPU (automatically detected by Trainer).

Step 7: Extensions

  • Convert to REST API using FastAPI.
  • Integrate into a LangGraph agent.
  • Log emotional evolution in a database.
  • Add explainability with SHAP or LIME.

Quick Demo

To test a pre-trained pipeline without training:

python -m src.main --text "I feel great today!" --model distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english

Understanding Transformers Internals

1. Introduction to Transformer Architecture

Transformers are a deep learning architecture designed primarily for sequence modeling tasks such as natural language processing. Unlike recurrent models, Transformers rely entirely on attention mechanisms to capture contextual relationships between tokens in a sequence, enabling efficient parallelization and improved performance.


2. Main Components

Embeddings (Token + Positional)

  • Token Embeddings: Convert discrete tokens into dense vectors.
  • Positional Embeddings: Inject information about token position since Transformers lack recurrence.

Self-Attention

  • Computes the relevance of each token to every other token in the sequence.
  • Uses three matrices: Query (Q), Key (K), and Value (V).
  • Attention formula:

[ \text{Attention}(Q, K, V) = \text{softmax}\left(\frac{QK^T}{\sqrt{d_k}}\right) V ]

where (d_k) is the dimension of the keys.

Causal Masking

  • Masks future tokens during training in autoregressive models to prevent attending to future positions, preserving the autoregressive property.

Multi-Head Attention

  • Runs multiple self-attention operations (heads) in parallel.
  • Each head learns different representations.
  • Outputs are concatenated and projected back to the original space.

Feed Forward Network (FFN)

  • A position-wise fully connected network applied after attention.
  • Typically consists of two linear layers with a ReLU activation in between.

Residual Connections and Layer Normalization

  • Residual connections add the input of a sublayer to its output to help gradient flow.
  • Layer normalization stabilizes and accelerates training by normalizing inputs.

Stack of Blocks and Output

  • Transformers stack multiple identical blocks (each containing attention and FFN layers).
  • The final output can be used for tasks like classification, generation, or sequence labeling.
