Create chat bot - JO PARIS 2024

In this article, I show how to create a simple chat bot with tensorflow.

For the data, I use a kaggle dataset from PARIS JO JO 2024 to get sentences at the training stage.

You can obtain the finish code in my github : https://github.com/victordalet/Kaggle_analysis/tree/feat/paris_2024_olympics


I - Default chat bot dataset

A tensorflow dataset on chat bots looks like this.
We can find a tag, a pattern and the various responses.
Our goal will be to add the different sequences from the JO betting dataset and add them to a file like this.

{
  "intents": [
    {
      "tag": "google",
      "patterns": [
        "google",
        "search",
        "internet"
      ],
      "responses": [
        "Redirecting to Google..."
      ]
    },
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

II - Data processing

I read a chat bot dataset in default json and JO's csv and split and processed it to add the sentence in the json

import json


class CreateDataset:
    def __init__(self):
        self.json_path = 'data.json'
        self.csv_path = '../paris-2024-faq.csv'
        with open(self.json_path) as file:
            self.dataset = json.load(file)
        f = open(self.csv_path, 'r')
        dataset_split = f.read().split(";")
        question = False
        for data in dataset_split:
            if question:
                question = False
                self.dataset["intents"][-1]["responses"].append(data)

            if "?" in data:
                question = True
                self.dataset["intents"].append({
                    "tag": "",
                    "patterns": [
                        data
                    ],
                    "responses": [
                    ]
                })
        with open(self.json_path, 'w') as f:
            json.dump(self.dataset, f)

III - Training

For training purposes, I've edited a tensorflow example.
If you take my code to run it, add in the first argument the number of epochs you want.
Create a save directory where your model will go, and add inside the classes.pkl and words.pkl files that are in the github like at the beginning of this article.

import random

        self.words = sorted(set(self.words))
        self.classes = sorted(set(self.classes))
        pickle.dump(self.words, open('saves/words.pkl', 'wb'))
        pickle.dump(self.classes, open('saves/classes.pkl', 'wb'))

        self.output_empty = [0] * len(self.classes)
        for document in self.documents:

            word_patterns = document[0]
            word_patterns = [self.lemmatizer.lemmatize(word.lower())

IV - Test

I create a ChatBot class, with a test method that takes a random message.
You can use the get_response method to add this chatbot to your application, for example I call it in one of my projects in a flask api to have my chatbot in a website.

import random
import json
import pickle
import numpy as np

import nltk
from nltk.stem import WordNetLemmatizer
from tensorflow.keras.models import load_model


class ChatBot:
    lemmatizer: WordNetLemmatizer
    intents: dict
    words: list
    classes: list
    model: load_model
    ERROR_THRESHOLD = 0.25

    def __init__(self):
        self.download_nltk_data()
        self.lemmatizer = WordNetLemmatizer()
        self.intents = json.loads(open('data.json').read())
        self.words = pickle.load(open('saves/words.pkl', 'rb'))
        self.classes = pickle.load(open('saves/classes.pkl', 'rb'))
        self.model = load_model('saves/chatbot_model.model')

    @staticmethod
    def download_nltk_data():
        nltk.download('punkt')
        nltk.download('wordnet')

    def clean_up_sentence(self, sentence):
        sentence_words = nltk.word_tokenize(sentence)
        sentence_words = [self.lemmatizer.lemmatize(word)
                          for word in sentence_words]
        return sentence_words

    def bag_of_words(self, sentence):
        sentence_words = self.clean_up_sentence(sentence)
        bag = [0] * len(self.words)
        for w in sentence_words:
            for i, word in enumerate(self.words):
                if word == w:
                    bag[i] = 1
        return np.array(bag)

    def predict_class(self, sentence):
        bow = self.bag_of_words(sentence)
        res = self.model.predict(np.array([bow]))[0]
        results = [[i, r]
                   for i, r in enumerate(res)
                   if r > self.ERROR_THRESHOLD]
        results.sort(key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True)
        return_list = []
        for r in results:
            return_list.append({'intent': self.classes[r[0]],
                                'probability': str(r[1])})
        return return_list

    def get_response(self, intents_list):
        intents_json = self.intents
        tag = intents_list[0]['intent']
        list_of_intents = intents_json['intents']
        for i in list_of_intents:
            if i['tag'] == tag:
                result = random.choice(i['responses'])
                break
        return result

    def test(self):
        while True:
            message = input("")
            ints = self.predict_class(message)
            res = self.get_response(ints)
            print(res)
