Basic Installation

In this repository, we release the trained model, the knowledge retriever, and the interactive script (both via termial and the UI) of the adapter-bot.

Download models

To download the pretrained model run the following commands:

## pip install gdown
import gdown
import zipfile
import os


url = 'https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1JQZex-AD-sa5WUT5U4lIn1K2sPW-us8a/'
output = 'models.zip'
gdown.download(url, output, quiet=False)
with zipfile.ZipFile(output, 'r') as zip_ref:
    zip_ref.extractall()
os.remove(output)

Download and install knowledge retriever (KG and Wiki)

To download and install the knowledge retrievers you can have to follow the step in the retriever folder. Specifically, for the knowledge graph follow the read me at:

https://github.com/HLTCHKUST/adapterbot/tree/main/retriever/graphdb#installing-neo4j

which provides instructions to install neo4j and load opendialoKG. For the wikipedia knowledge, we use DrQA. Also in this case follow the read me at:

https://github.com/HLTCHKUST/adapterbot/tree/main/retriever/doc_ret

which provides a simple script for download the wikidump and train the tf-idf retriever.

Run the interactive script

To interact with the model via command line use the following script:

>>> python interact_adapter.py --interact
