Introduction

Welcome to the advanced text generation tutorial using TensorFlow! 🧠✨ This guide will walk you through creating sophisticated language models for text generation tasks. Whether you're interested in sequence-to-sequence models or Transformer-based architectures, we've got you covered.

Key Concepts

  • Text generation involves predicting the next word in a sequence based on previous context
  • TensorFlow provides powerful tools for building and training deep learning models
  • We'll explore techniques like recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and attention mechanisms

Implementation Steps

  1. Data Preparation

    • Use a text corpus like The Harry Potter books for training
    • Preprocess text with tokenization and vectorization

  2. Model Architecture

    • Build a LSTM-based model for sequence prediction
    • Implement a Transformer model with self-attention layers

  3. Training & Evaluation

    • Train the model on your dataset
    • Evaluate performance using perplexity metrics

Example Code

import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.keras import layers

# Simple LSTM model for text generation
model = tf.keras.Sequential([
    layers.Embedding(input_dim=vocab_size, output_dim=embedding_dim),
    layers.LSTM(units=128),
    layers.Dense(vocab_size, activation='softmax')
])
