Character-Aware Neural Language Models

Tensorflow implementation of Character-Aware Neural Language Models. The original code of author can be found here.

This implementation contains:

Word-level and Character-level Convolutional Neural Network
Highway Network
Recurrent Neural Network Language Model

The current implementation has a performance issue. See #3.

Prerequisites

Python 2.7 or Python 3.3+
Tensorflow

Usage

To train a model with ptb dataset:

$ python main.py --dataset ptb

To test an existing model:

$ python main.py --dataset ptb --forward_only True

To see all training options, run:

$ python main.py --help

which will print
