:warning: Changes in FastText behavior

Out-of-vocab word handling

To achieve consistency with the reference implementation from Facebook, a FastText model will now always report any word, out-of-vocabulary or not, as being in the model, and always return some vector for any word looked-up. Specifically:

  1. 'any_word' in ft_model will always return True. Previously, it returned True only if the full word was in the vocabulary. (To test if a full word is in the known vocabulary, you can consult the wv.vocab property: 'any_word' in ft_model.wv.vocab will return False if the full word wasn't learned during model training.)
  2. ft_model['any_word'] will always return a vector. Previously, it raised KeyError for OOV words when the model had no vectors for any ngrams of the word.
  3. If no ngrams from the term are present in the model, or when no ngrams could be extracted from the term, a vector pointing to the origin will be returned. Previously, a vector of NaN (not a number) was returned as a consequence of a divide-by-zero problem.
  4. Models may use more more memory, or take longer for word-vector lookup, especially after training on smaller corpuses where the previous non-compliant behavior discarded some ngrams from consideration.

Loading models in Facebook .bin format

The gensim.models.FastText.load_fasttext_format function (deprecated) now loads the entire model contained in the .bin file, including the shallow neural network that enables training continuation. Loading this NN requires more CPU and RAM than previously required.

Since this function is deprecated, consider using one of its alternatives (see below).

Furthermore, you must now pass the full path to the file to load, including the file extension. Previously, if you specified a model path that ends with anything other than .bin, the code automatically appended .bin to the path before loading the model. This behavior was confusing, so we removed it.

3.5.0

5 years ago

3.5.0, 2018-07-06

This release comprises a glorious 38 pull requests from 28 contributors. Most of the effort went into improving the documentation—hence the release code name "Docs 💬"!

Apart from the massive overhaul of all Gensim documentation (including docstring style and examples—you asked for it), we also managed to sneak in some new functionality and a number of bug fixes. As usual, see the notes below for a complete list, with links to pull requests for more details.

Huge thanks to all contributors! Nobody loves working on documentation. 3.5.0 is a result of several months of laborious, unglamorous, and sometimes invisible work. Enjoy!
