Can we use spacy with MXnet

Can we use spacy with MXnet to build a deep neural network(NLP)

We are building an application using mxnet. How to use spacy with Mxnet

Solution

  • Spacy and MXNet serialize their models differently so they are not directly compatible.

    You can leverage the pre-trained models of Spacy as part of a preprocessing step for your text data though, and then feed into an MXNet model. Aim to get your text data into an NDArray format (using mx.nd.array).

    Also take a look at MXNet's Model Zoo (https://mxnet.apache.org/model_zoo/index.html) which contains a number of models for NLP tasks; Word2Vec embedding being one example.
