This project focuses on building a language model using a generative deep learning approach. The model is implemented using a Transformer architecture with TensorFlow/Keras, aiming to generate creative and coherent text based on the learned patterns in the training data.

The project code consists of several components:

1. Text Preprocessing:

   • Utilizes the TextVectorization layer to convert text data into sequences of integers.
   • Implements a custom dataset preparation function (prepare_lm_dataset) to create inputs and targets for language modeling.

2. Positional Embedding Layer:

   • Introduces a PositionalEmbedding layer to add positional information to input sequences.

3. Transformer Decoder:

   • Defines a TransformerDecoder layer representing a single transformer block with multi-head self-attention and cross-attention mechanisms.

4. Model Construction:

   • Constructs a language model using the previously defined layers.
   • Compiles the model using the sparse categorical crossentropy loss and the RMSprop optimizer.

5. Text Generation:

   • Implements a TextGenerator callback that samples text from the trained model at the end of each epoch.
   • Allows for variable temperature sampling to control the randomness of the generated text.

To train the model, use the provided language modeling dataset (lm_dataset). The training is set to run for 200 epochs, and the TextGenerator callback is included to observe the generated text at the end of each epoch.

model.fit(lm_dataset, epochs=200, callbacks=[text_gen_callback])

The generated text showcases the impact of temperature on the diversity and creativity of the language model. As mentioned in the code, a low temperature results in repetitive text, while higher temperatures lead to more interesting and creative outputs. A recommended generation temperature of about 0.7 provides a balanced mix of learned structure and randomness.

It's worth noting that GPT-3, a state-of-the-art language model, shares similarities with the architecture trained in this example. GPT-3 employs a deep stack of Transformer decoders and a significantly larger training corpus.
