GLUtf 0.1.0

GLU







An easy-to-use library for GLU (Gated Linear Units) and GLU variants in TensorFlow. This repository allows you to easily make use of the following activation functions:

GLU introduced in the paper Language Modeling with Gated Convolutional Networks [1]
Bilinear introduced in the paper Language Modeling with Gated Convolutional Networks [1] atrributed to Mnih et al. [2]
ReGLU introduced in the paper GLU Variants Improve Transformer [3]
GEGLU introduced in the paper GLU Variants Improve Transformer [3]
SwiGLU introduced in the paper GLU Variants Improve Transformer [3]
SeGLU


Gated Linear Units consist of the component-wise product of two linear projections, one of which is first passed through a sigmoid function. Variations on GLU are possible, using different nonlinear (or even linear) functions in place of sigmoid. In the GLU Variants Improve Transformer [3] paper, in a fine-tuning scenario the new variants seem to produce better perplexities for the de-noising objective used in pre-training, as well as better results on many downstream language-understanding tasks. Furthermore these do not have any apparent computational drawbacks.
Installation
Run the following to install:
pip install glu-tf

Developing glu-tf
To install glu-tf, along with tools you need to develop and test, run the following in your virtualenv:
git clone https://github.com/Rishit-dagli/GLU.git
# or clone your own fork

cd GLU
pip install -e .[dev]

Usage
In this section, I show a minimal example of using the SwiGLU activation function but you can use the other activations in similar manner:
import tensorflow as tf
from glu_tf import SwiGLU

model = tf.keras.Sequential()
model.add(tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=10)
model.add(SwiGLU(bias = False, dim=-1, name='swiglu'))
