NLP Example Library

Currently, MindsDB’s NLP engine is powered by Hugging Face and OpenAI. But we plan to expand to other NLP options in the future, so stay tuned!

The MindsDB’s Hugging Face engine is extensible. We are actively working on adding more tasks and models. If you have a specific task or model in mind, please let us know in the MindsDB Community.

Hugging Face Examples

Here are the tasks supported by MindsDB and Hugging Face:

• Text Classification
• Zero-Shot Classification
• Translation
• Summarization

Let’s go through the examples.

Text Classification

Spam

Let’s create a model.

CREATE MODEL mindsdb.hf_spam
PREDICT PRED
USING
engine = 'huggingface',
task = 'text-classification',
model_name = 'mariagrandury/roberta-base-finetuned-sms-spam-detection',
input_column = 'text',
labels = ['spam', 'ham'];

And check its status.

DESCRIBE hf_spam;

Once the status is complete, we can query for predictions.

SELECT *
FROM mindsdb.hf_spam
WHERE text = 'I like you. I love you.';

On execution, we get:

+----+--------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------+
|PRED|PRED_explain                                            |text                   |

Due to the addition of a broadcasting aerial at the top of the tower in 1957, it is now taller than the Chrysler Building by 5.2 metres (17 ft). Excluding transmitters, the Eiffel Tower is the second tallest free-standing structure in France after the Millau Viaduct.';

On execution, we get:

OpenAI Examples

Here are the tasks supported by MindsDB and OpenAI:

• Answering Questions without Context
• Answering Questions with Context
• Prompt Completion

Follow this instruction to set up the OpenAI integration in MindsDB.

Let’s go through the examples.

Answering Questions without Context

Answering Questions without Context

Let’s create a model.

CREATE MODEL project_a.openai_test_a
PREDICT answer
USING
    engine = 'openai',
    question_column = 'question';

On execution, we get:

Query successfully completed

Now we can query for answers.

SELECT question, answer
FROM project_a.openai_test_a
WHERE question = 'Where is Stockholm located?';

On execution, we get:

+---------------------------+-------------------------------+
|question                   |answer                         |
+---------------------------+-------------------------------+
|Where is Stockholm located?|Stockholm is located in Sweden.|
+---------------------------+-------------------------------+

Answering Questions with Context

Answering Questions with Context

Let’s create a model.

CREATE MODEL project_a.openai_test_b
PREDICT answer
USING
    engine = 'openai',
    question_column = 'question',
    context_column = 'context';

On execution, we get:

Query successfully completed

Now we can query for answers.

SELECT context, question, answer
FROM project_a.openai_test_b
WHERE context = 'Answer with a joke'
AND question = 'How to cook soup?';

On execution, we get:

+-------------------+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
|context            |question          |answer                                                   |
+-------------------+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
|Answer with a joke |How to cook soup? |How do you cook soup? You put it in a pot and heat it up!|
+-------------------+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+

Prompt Completion

Prompt Completion with Parameters Provided at Creation Time

Let’s create a model.

CREATE MODEL project_a.openai_test_c
PREDICT answer
USING
    engine = 'openai',
    prompt_template = 'Context: {{context}}. Question: {{question}}. Answer:',
    max_tokens = 100,
    temperature = 0.3;

Let’s look at an example that uses parameters provided at model creation time.

SELECT context, question, answer
FROM project_a.openai_test_c
WHERE context = 'Answer accurately'
AND question = 'How many planets exist in the solar system?';

On execution, we get:

+-------------------+-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
|context            |question                                   |answer                                        |
+-------------------+-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
|Answer accurately  |How many planets exist in the solar system?| There are eight planets in the solar system. |
+-------------------+-------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+

Prompt Completion with Parameters Provided at Prediction Time

Let’s create a model.

CREATE MODEL project_a.openai_test_c
PREDICT answer
USING
    engine = 'openai',
    prompt_template = 'Context: {{context}}. Question: {{question}}. Answer:',
    max_tokens = 100,
    temperature = 0.3;

Let’s look at an example that overrides parameters at prediction time.

SELECT instruction, answer
FROM project_a.openai_test_c
WHERE instruction = 'Speculate extensively'
USING
    prompt_template = '{{instruction}}. What does Tom Hanks like?',
    max_tokens = 100,
    temperature = 0.5;

On execution, we get:

+----------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|instruction           |answer                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
+----------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|Speculate extensively |Some people speculate that Tom Hanks likes to play golf, while others believe that he enjoys acting and directing. It is also speculated that he likes to spend time with his family and friends, and that he enjoys traveling.|
+----------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Sentiment Classification

Let’s create a model.

CREATE MODEL mindsdb.sentiment_classifier                           
PREDICT sentiment
USING
  engine = 'openai',              
  prompt_template = 'predict the sentiment of the text:{{review}} exactly as either positive or negative or neutral';

Now we can query for predictions.

SELECT output.sentiment, input.review
FROM example_db.demo_data.amazon_reviews AS input
JOIN mindsdb.sentiment_classifier AS output
LIMIT 3;

On execution, we get:

+----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| sentiment                              | review                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
+----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| positive                               | Late gift for my grandson. He is very happy with it. Easy for him (9yo ).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
| The sentiment of the text is positive. | I'm not super thrilled with the proprietary OS on this unit, but it does work okay and does what I need it to do. Appearance is very nice, price is very good and I can't complain too much - just wish it were easier (or at least more obvious) to port new apps onto it. For now, it helps me see things that are too small on my phone while I'm traveling. I'm a happy buyer.|
| positive                               | I purchased this Kindle Fire HD 8 was purchased for use by 5 and 8 yer old grandchildren. They basically use it to play Amazon games that you download.                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
