Implementation of Char-CNN (2015)

To run the model on Reuters dataset, just run the following from the Castor working directory:

python -m models.char_cnn --dataset Reuters --batch-size 128 --lr 0.001 --seed 3435

The best model weights will be saved in

models/char_cnn/saves/Reuters/best_model.pt

To test the model, you can use the following command.

python -m models.char_cnn --dataset Reuters --batch_size 32 --trained-model models/char_cnn/saves/Reuters/best_model.pt --seed 3435

We experiment the model on the following datasets.

• Reuters (ModApte)
• AAPD

Adam is used for training.
