In the process of locally running tensorflow text toxicity pre-trained model

Keras
1

Hi
I am new to Tensorflow and we are working on making the Tensorflow-Text Toxicity model to work offline without the internet.

The goal is to detect text from paper matching it with its offline data set loaded.
can anybody suggest how we can go about this process?

How does a Load() function work ?
If we want to give a local path instead of using Load function

@CARES_Goa Welcome to the Tensorflow forum!

To make the TensorFlow Text Toxicity model work offline without the internet, you’ll need to perform the following steps:

  1. Download Pretrained Model: First, download the pretrained model and its dependencies while you have an internet connection. You’ll typically need the model weights, tokenizer, and any other assets required for inference.
  2. Export Model: Once you have the model and its assets, you need to export them into a format that can be used for offline inference. You can use TensorFlow’s SavedModel format or TensorFlow Lite for mobile applications.
  3. Load Model Offline: Create a script or application that can load the exported model for offline use. Depending on your target platform (e.g., Python, mobile, embedded), you’ll have different options for loading the model. For example, you can use TensorFlow for Python or TensorFlow Lite for mobile applications.
  4. Preprocessing and Tokenization: You’ll need to preprocess the input text and tokenize it in the same way the model was trained. Use the tokenizer and preprocessing steps used in the model, which should be included in the model assets.
  5. Inference: Pass the tokenized text through the model to get predictions. Depending on the model and its output format, you may need to post-process the results.

Here’s a general outline of how to approach this process:

TensorFlow Python (For Running Offline on a Desktop or Server):

  1. Download the pre-trained model and assets using TensorFlow.
  2. Export the model using SavedModel or another format compatible with your desired deployment method.
  3. Write a Python script to load the model and perform inference. Ensure that the tokenizer and preprocessing steps are included in your script.
  4. Use the loaded model to perform toxicity predictions on the text from the paper.

TensorFlow Lite (For Running Offline on Mobile or Edge Devices):

  1. Download the pre-trained model and assets using TensorFlow.
  2. Convert the model to TensorFlow Lite format. TensorFlow provides tools for this, such as the TensorFlow Lite Converter.
  3. Integrate the converted TensorFlow Lite model into your mobile or edge application.
  4. Write code in your application to preprocess text data, tokenize it using the same methodology as the original model, and perform inference using the TensorFlow Lite model.

Keep in mind that running deep learning models offline on resource-constrained devices may require model quantization (reducing the model size and precision) to ensure it runs efficiently.

In TensorFlow, the Load function, or the loading process in general, depends on the context and the specific API you are using. The loading process is typically used to load pre-trained models, model weights, or saved model files into your TensorFlow application. You can also load custom models you’ve trained and saved.

If you want to load a model from a local path rather than using a specific load function, you can do so using Python’s file I/O operations in combination with TensorFlow. Here’s a general outline of how you can load a model from a local path:

  1. Prepare Your Model: Ensure that your model or model weights are saved in a compatible format, such as a SavedModel, HDF5, or a custom format.
  2. Load the Model Using File I/O:
  • For SavedModel:
import tensorflow as tf

model_path = '/path/to/saved_model_directory'
loaded_model = tf.keras.models.load_model(model_path)
  • For HDF5 (Keras model saved with model.save()):
from tensorflow import keras

model_path = '/path/to/model.h5'
loaded_model = keras.models.load_model(model_path)
  • For custom formats: You’ll need to write your own code to load the model and its weights from your custom file format.
  1. Preprocessing and Inference: Once you’ve loaded the model, you can use it to make predictions or perform inference on your data.

Remember to replace '/path/to/saved_model_directory' or '/path/to/model.h5' with the actual local path to your saved model or model weights file.
