Quick start

Tokenizer

from wikilangs import tokenizer
tok = tokenizer('latest', 'so', 32000)
tokens = tok.tokenize("Your text here")

N-gram

from wikilangs import ngram
ng = ngram('latest', 'so', gram_size=3)
score = ng.score("Your text here")

Markov chain

from wikilangs import markov
mc = markov('latest', 'so', depth=3)
text = mc.generate(length=50)

Vocabulary

from wikilangs import vocabulary
vocab = vocabulary('latest', 'so')
info = vocab.lookup("word")

Embeddings

from wikilangs import embeddings
emb = embeddings('latest', 'so', dimension=64)
vec = emb.embed_word("word")
