Open Text Classification (OpenTC)

OpenTC is a text classification engine using machine learning. It is designed as client-server architecture and uses python libraries scikit-learn and tensorflow for it's machine learning algorithms. Currently following algorithms are supported:

  • Naive Bayes
  • Support Vector Machine
  • Convolutional Neural Network

In the future it will also support FastText from Facebookresearch.

The engine is running as a server listening on command and text to be classified. By default it listens on localhost port 3333, but it can be changed in the yaml configuration file.

OpenTC can be used for example for text classification (a demo website for this purpose is available online OpenTC demo), or for other purposes such as Data Leak Prevention (DLP). An example of implementation for the DLP has been created as ICAP Server: opentc-icap

Requirements

  • Python 3.x
  • numpy
  • pyparsing
  • PyYAML
  • scikit-learn
  • scipy
  • tensorflow 1.x

How to use

Installation

Install the module using pip:

$ pip install opentc

or clone the repository

$ git clone https://github.com/cahya-wirawan/opentc.git
$ cd opentc
$ python setup.py install

opentc

synopsis

opentc

Description

The command line to train the application based on the datasets define in the configuration file. The result of the training (pre-trained data) can be used for the opentcd server.

Usage

$ python opentc -h
usage: opentc [-h] [-c CLASSIFIER] [-C CONFIGURATION_FILE] [-d DATASET]
              [-l LOG_CONFIGURATION_FILE]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -c CLASSIFIER, --classifier CLASSIFIER
                        set classifier to use for the training (support
                        currently bayesian, svm or cnn)
  -C CONFIGURATION_FILE, --configuration_file CONFIGURATION_FILE
                        set the configuration file
  -d DATASET, --dataset DATASET
                        set dataset to use for the training
  -l LOG_CONFIGURATION_FILE, --log_configuration_file LOG_CONFIGURATION_FILE
                        set the log configuration file

opentcd

synopsis

opentcd

Description

The daemon listens for incoming connections on TCP port (default is 3333) and classify files or text string on demand. It reads a configuration file in the following order: ./opentc.yml, ~/.opentc/opentc.yml or /etc/opentc/opentc.yml.

Usage

Opentcd uses the configuration file opentc.yml to define allmost all possible configuration. Only few setup can be overridden in command line options.

List of arguments:

$ python opentcd -h
usage: opentcd [-h] [-a ADDRESS] [-C CONFIGURATION_FILE]
               [-l LOG_CONFIGURATION_FILE] [-p PORT] [-t TIMEOUT]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -a ADDRESS, --address ADDRESS
                        define the address for the server
  -C CONFIGURATION_FILE, --configuration_file CONFIGURATION_FILE
                        set the configuration file
  -l LOG_CONFIGURATION_FILE, --log_configuration_file LOG_CONFIGURATION_FILE
                        set the log configuration file
  -p PORT, --port PORT  define the port number which the server uses to listen
  -t TIMEOUT, --timeout TIMEOUT
                        define the time out

Run it as background application:

$ python opentcd&

2017-05-02 13:33:28,019 - opentc.core.server - INFO - Server loop running in thread: Thread-1

datasets and pre-trained data

The configuration file defines the path to the datasets and pre-trained data. A pre-trained data for testing purpose can be downloaded from data, it is around 1.4GB. Just uncompress it and change the path to the pre-trained data in opentc.yml file accordingly.

Commands

The command uses a newline character as the delimiter. If opentcd doesn't recognize the command, or the command doesn't follow the requirements specified below, it will reply with an error message, but still wait for the next commands (this behaviour can be changed in the future).

PING

Check the server's state. It should reply with "PONG".

VERSION

Print the program version

RELOAD

Reload the engine

LIST_CLASSIFIER

List the supported classifiers (at the moment there are three classifiers supported: Bayesian, Support Vector Machine and Convolutional Neural Network). It shows also the status of classifier, either True (enabled) or False (disabled).

SET_CLASSIFIER

Enabled or disabled the specific classifier

PREDICT_STREAM

Classify text streams. It uses a new line character as delimiter for every sentences.

PREDICT_FILE

Classify file. It uses a new line character as delimiter for every sentences

CLOSE

Close the connection

Todo

  • Multilabel classification
  • Include FastText from Facebookresearch
  • Will use pyzmq and google's protobuf to improve the protocol and network communication
  • considering a multi processing server instead of multi threading due to the global interpreter lock used in threads which prevent the code to run really concurrently in multi processor environment.
