ELECTRA Base Classifier for Sentiment Analysis

This is an ELECTRA base discriminator fine-tuned for sentiment analysis of reviews. It has a mean pooling layer and a classifier head (2 layers of 1024 dimension) with SwishGLU activation and dropout (0.3). It classifies text into three sentiment categories: 'negative' (0), 'neutral' (1), and 'positive' (2). It was fine-tuned on the Sentiment Merged dataset, which is a merge of Stanford Sentiment Treebank (SST-3), and DynaSent Rounds 1 and 2.

Labels

The model predicts the following labels:

  • 0: negative
  • 1: neutral
  • 2: positive

Custom Model Components

SwishGLU Activation Function

The SwishGLU activation function combines the Swish activation with a Gated Linear Unit (GLU). It enhances the model's ability to capture complex patterns in the data.

class SwishGLU(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, input_dim: int, output_dim: int):
        super(SwishGLU, self).__init__()
        self.projection = nn.Linear(input_dim, 2 * output_dim)
        self.activation = nn.SiLU()

    def forward(self, x):
        x_proj_gate = self.projection(x)
        projected, gate = x_proj_gate.tensor_split(2, dim=-1)
        return projected * self.activation(gate)

PoolingLayer

The PoolingLayer class allows you to choose between different pooling strategies:

  • cls: Uses the representation of the [CLS] token.
  • mean: Calculates the mean of the token embeddings.
  • max: Takes the maximum value across token embeddings.

'mean' pooling was used in the fine-tuned model.

class PoolingLayer(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, pooling_type='cls'):
        super().__init__()
        self.pooling_type = pooling_type

    def forward(self, last_hidden_state, attention_mask):
        if self.pooling_type == 'cls':
            return last_hidden_state[:, 0, :]
        elif self.pooling_type == 'mean':
            return (last_hidden_state * attention_mask.unsqueeze(-1)).sum(1) / attention_mask.sum(-1).unsqueeze(-1)
        elif self.pooling_type == 'max':
            return torch.max(last_hidden_state * attention_mask.unsqueeze(-1), dim=1)[0]
        else:
            raise ValueError(f"Unknown pooling method: {self.pooling_type}")

Classifier

The Classifier class is a customizable feed-forward neural network used for the final classification.

The fine-tuned model had:

  • input_dim: 768
  • num_layers: 2
  • hidden_dim: 1024
  • hidden_activation: SwishGLU
  • dropout_rate: 0.3
  • n_classes: 3
class Classifier(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, input_dim, hidden_dim, hidden_activation, num_layers, n_classes, dropout_rate=0.0):
        super().__init__()
        layers = []
        layers.append(nn.Linear(input_dim, hidden_dim))
        layers.append(hidden_activation)
        if dropout_rate > 0:
            layers.append(nn.Dropout(dropout_rate))

        for _ in range(num_layers - 1):
            layers.append(nn.Linear(hidden_dim, hidden_dim))
            layers.append(hidden_activation)
            if dropout_rate > 0:
                layers.append(nn.Dropout(dropout_rate))

        layers.append(nn.Linear(hidden_dim, n_classes))
        self.layers = nn.Sequential(*layers)

Model Configuration

The model's configuration (config.json) includes custom parameters:

  • hidden_dim: Size of the hidden layers in the classifier.
  • hidden_activation: Activation function used in the classifier ('SwishGLU').
  • num_layers: Number of layers in the classifier.
  • dropout_rate: Dropout rate used in the classifier.
  • pooling: Pooling strategy used ('mean').
