TODO

• fine occl
• hybrid models
• release dataset files
• clean up configs

• python >= 3.6
• pytorch >= 1.7.0

After you have pytorch (preferably with cuda support), please install other requirements by pip install -r requirements.txt

First download csqa data and unzip. The default folder is data. Then download embeddings, unzip and put tzw.ent.np to data/mhgrn_data/cpnet/ and glove.transe.sgd.rel.npy to data/mhgrn_data/transe.

The final dataset folder should look like this

data/ # root dir
  csqa/
    path_embedding.pickle

  mhgrn_data/
    csqa/
      graph/      # extracted subgraphs
      paths/      # unpruned/pruned paths
      statement/  # csqa statement
    cpnet/
    transe/

We use neptune to track our experiment. Please set the api token and project id by

export NEPTUNE_API_TOKEN='<YOUR API KEY>'
export NEPTUNE_PROJ_NAME='<YOUR PROJECT NAME>'

The model weight would be saved to save with the subfolder name equal to the neptune id.

The pipeline to train SalKG models (for detail parameters that we suggest tuning, please see the bash scripts)

1. run runs/build_qa.sh for generating indexed dataset required by nokg and kg model

   In the script, the flag --fine-occl would generate indexed dataset required by fine occl model

2. run runs/qa.sh to run nokg and kg model

3. run runs/save_target_saliency.sh with nokg / kg checkpoints to generate the model's saliency. Currently we suppport coarse occlusion and fine {occlusion, gradient} saliency

The table below shows our results in three commonly used QA benchmarks: CommonsenseQA (CSQA), OpenbookQA (OBQA), and CODAH

For each column,

• Green cells are the best performance
• Blue cells are the second-best performance
• Red cells arae the non-SalKG best performance

Across the 3 datasets, we find that SalKG-Hybrid and SalKG-Coarse consistently outperform other models.
