# Dataset Card for "tomaarsen/setfit-absa-semeval-laptops"

### Dataset Summary

This dataset contains the manually annotated laptop reviews from SemEval-2014 Task 4, in the format as
understood by [SetFit](https://github.com/huggingface/setfit) ABSA.

For more details, see https://aclanthology.org/S14-2004/

### Data Instances

An example of "train" looks as follows.

```json
{"text": "I charge it at night and skip taking the cord with me because of the good battery life.", "span": "cord", "label": "neutral", "ordinal": 0}
{"text": "I charge it at night and skip taking the cord with me because of the good battery life.", "span": "battery life", "label": "positive", "ordinal": 0}     
{"text": "The tech guy then said the service center does not do 1-to-1 exchange and I have to direct my concern to the \"sales\" team, which is the retail shop which I bought my netbook from.", "span": "service center", "label": "negative", "ordinal": 0}
{"text": "The tech guy then said the service center does not do 1-to-1 exchange and I have to direct my concern to the \"sales\" team, which is the retail shop which I bought my netbook from.", "span": "\"sales\" team", "label": "negative", "ordinal": 0}
{"text": "The tech guy then said the service center does not do 1-to-1 exchange and I have to direct my concern to the \"sales\" team, which is the retail shop which I bought my netbook from.", "span": "tech guy", "label": "neutral", "ordinal": 0}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are the same among all splits.

- `text`: a `string` feature.
- `span`: a `string` feature showing the aspect span from the text.
- `label`: a `string` feature showing the polarity of the aspect span.
- `ordinal`: an `int64` feature showing the n-th occurrence of the span in the text. This is useful for if the span occurs within the same text multiple times.

### Training ABSA models using SetFit ABSA

To train using this dataset, first install the SetFit library:

```bash
pip install setfit
```

And then you can use the following script as a guideline of how to train an ABSA model on this dataset:

```python
from setfit import AbsaModel, AbsaTrainer, TrainingArguments
from datasets import load_dataset
from transformers import EarlyStoppingCallback

# You can initialize a AbsaModel using one or two SentenceTransformer models, or two ABSA models
model = AbsaModel.from_pretrained("sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2")

# The training/eval dataset must have `text`, `span`, `polarity`, and `ordinal` columns
dataset = load_dataset("tomaarsen/setfit-absa-semeval-laptops")
train_dataset = dataset["train"]
eval_dataset = dataset["validation"]

args = TrainingArguments(
    output_dir="models",
    use_amp=True,
    batch_size=256,
    eval_steps=50,
    save_steps=50,
    load_best_model_at_end=True,
)

trainer = AbsaTrainer(
    model,
    args=args,
    train_dataset=train_dataset,
    eval_dataset=eval_dataset,
    callbacks=[EarlyStoppingCallback(early_stopping_patience=5)],
)
trainer.train()

metrics = trainer.evaluate(eval_dataset)
print(metrics)

trainer.push_to_hub("tomaarsen/setfit-absa-laptops")
```

You can then run inference like so:
```python
from setfit import AbsaModel

# Download from Hub and run inference
model = AbsaModel.from_pretrained(
    "tomaarsen/setfit-absa-laptops-aspect",
    "tomaarsen/setfit-absa-laptops-polarity",
)

# Run inference
preds = model([
    "Boots up fast and runs great!",
    "The screen shows great colors.",
])
```
