Next-Token Prediction

Create a language model based on a body of text and get high-quality predictions (next word, next phrase, next pixel, etc.).

Install

npm i next-token-prediction

Usage

Simple (from a built-in data bootstrap)

Put this /training/ directory in the root of your project.

Now you just need to create your app's index.js file and run it. Your model will start training on the .txt files located in /training/documents/. After training is complete it will run these 4 queries:

const { Language: LM } = require('next-token-prediction');

const MyLanguageModel = async () => {
  const agent = await LM({
    bootstrap: true
  });

  // Predict the next word

  agent.getTokenPrediction('what');

  // Predict the next 5 words

  agent.getTokenSequencePrediction('what is', 5);

  // Complete the phrase

  agent.complete('hopefully');

  // Get a top k sample of completion predictions

  agent.getCompletions('The sun');
};

MyLanguageModel();

---

Advanced (provide trainingData or create it from .txt files)

Put this /training/ directory in the root of your project.

Because training data was committed to this repo, you can optionally skip training, and just use the bootstrapped training data, like this:

const { dirname } = require('path');
const __root = dirname(require.main.filename);

const { Language: LM } = require('next-token-prediction');
const OpenSourceBooksDataset = require(`${__root}/training/datasets/OpenSourceBooks`);

const MyLanguageModel = async () => {
  const agent = await LM({
    dataset: OpenSourceBooksDataset
  });

  // Complete the phrase

  agent.complete('hopefully');
};

MyLanguageModel();

Or, train on your own provided text files:

const { dirname } = require('path');
const __root = dirname(require.main.filename);

const { Language: LM } = require('next-token-prediction');

const MyLanguageModel = () => {
  // The following .txt files should exist in a `/training/documents/`
  // directory in the root of your project

  const agent = await LM({
    files: [
      'marie-antoinette',
      'pride-and-prejudice',
      'to-kill-a-mockingbird',
      'basic-algebra',
      'a-history-of-war',
      'introduction-to-c-programming'
    ]
  });

  // Complete the phrase

  agent.complete('hopefully');
};

MyLanguageModel();

With more training data you can get more suggestions, eventually hitting a tipping point where it can complete anything.

Goals

1. Provide a high-quality text prediction library for:

• autocomplete
• autocorrect
• spell checking
• search/lookup
• summarizing
• paraphrasing

2. Create image and audio models for other prediction formats

3. Simplify AI/ML methodologies
