NNBlocks: A Deep Learning Framework for Computational Linguistics Neural Network Models
Proceedings of the Tenth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2016)
Abstract
Lately, with the success of Deep Learning techniques in some computational linguistics tasks, many researchers want to explore new models for their linguistics applications. These models tend to be very different from what standard Neural Networks look like, limiting the possibility to use standard Neural Networks frameworks. This work presents NNBlocks, a new framework written in Python to build and train Neural Networks that are not constrained by a specific kind of architecture, making it possible to use it in computational linguistics.
