Machine Learning with TensorFlow 1.x

Drinking from the firehose

As you did earlier, you should grab the code from https://github.com/mlwithtf/MLwithTF/.

We will be focusing on the chapter_05 subfolder that has the following three files:

• data_utils.py
• translate.py
• seq2seq_model.py

The first file handles our data, so let's start with that. The prepare_wmt_dataset function handles that. It is fairly similar to how we grabbed image datasets in the past, except now we're grabbing two data subsets:

• giga-fren.release2.fr.gz
• giga-fren.release2.en.gz

Of course, these are the two languages we want to focus on. The beauty of our soon-to-be-built translator will be that the approach is entirely generalizable, so we can just as easily create a translator for, say, German or Spanish. ...
