I've trained a sentiment classifier model using Keras library by following the below steps(broadly).
Now for scoring using this model, I was able to save the model to a file and load from a file. However I've not found a way to save the Tokenizer object to file. Without this I'll have to process the corpus every time I need to score even a single sentence. Is there a way around this?
The most common way is to use either pickle
or joblib
. Here you have an example on how to use pickle
in order to save Tokenizer
:
import pickle
# saving
with open('tokenizer.pickle', 'wb') as handle:
pickle.dump(tokenizer, handle, protocol=pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL)
# loading
with open('tokenizer.pickle', 'rb') as handle:
tokenizer = pickle.load(handle)
