Welcome to the world of NeAt-Vision, a powerful visualization tool that brings clarity to the attention mechanisms of deep-learning models, especially in Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned practitioner, this guide will walk you through the essential steps to get started with NeAt-Vision, ensuring a smooth and rewarding experience.

Features of NeAt-Vision

• Visualize attention scores with multiple customization options.
• Export visualizations to SVG format for academic use—note that you might need to convert SVG to PDF.
• Inspect model predictions including posterior distributions for classification tasks and regression error, aiding in debugging your models.
• Supports various tasks: classification, multilabel classification, and regression.

Getting Started with NeAt-Vision

To effectively use NeAt-Vision, you need to prepare certain input files in JSON format which will serve as data for visualization.

Required Input Files

• Data file: Contains the tokenized text, attention scores, and model predictions.
• Label file (optional): Only needed for classification tasks to map each class label to a user-defined description.

Input Format Details

NeAt-Vision requires specific structures for data files based on the task type. Let’s break it down with an analogy: think of preparing a dish. Each ingredient (data) needs to be measured and combined in a certain way for the final flavor to turn out right.

Regression Task File Structure

{
    "text": [],
    "label": 0,
    "prediction": 0,
    "attention": [],
    "id": "sample_11"
}

Classification Task File Structure

{
    "text": [],
    "label": 0,
    "prediction": 0,
    "posterior": [],
    "attention": [],
    "id": "sample_99"
}

Multilabel Classification Task File Structure

{
    "text": [],
    "label": [],
    "prediction": [],
    "posterior": [],
    "attention": [],
    "id": "sample_55"
}

How to Build and Serve NeAt-Vision

Now that you have your input files ready, it’s time to set up NeAt-Vision:

bash
# install dependencies
npm install

# serve with hot reload at localhost:8080
npm run dev

# build for production with minification
npm run build

# build for production and view the bundle analyzer report
npm run build --report

Troubleshooting Tips

If you encounter issues while visualizing attention mechanisms, consider the following troubleshooting suggestions:

• Ensure your JSON files are correctly formatted as per the requirements.
• Check for any missing required fields in your data files.
• Make sure that the necessary dependencies are properly installed.
• If you experience issues with SVG exports, remember that you’ll need to convert it to PDF for academic purposes.
