AI Multitask Classifiers: From Objects to Emotions

Created by Son Nguyen in 2024, this repository contains Python scripts for various AI-powered classifiers. These classifiers can be used for object detection, face detection, character recognition, and more. The classifiers are built using popular deep learning frameworks such as OpenCV, TensorFlow, and PyTorch.

This repository contains 9 primary subdirectories for various classifiers:

• Vehicle-Classification
• Human-Face-Classification
• Mood-Classification
• Flowers-Classification
• Object-Classification
• Character-Recognition
• Animals-Classification
• Speech-Recognition
• Special-Self-Trained-Sentiment-Classifier

Refer to the information below for details on each classifier.

What's even more interesting is that all these classifiers can use your webcam for live testing, video files, or image files!

Please read this webpage carefully to understand how to use each classifier and how to run the main script to choose and run any of the classifiers. Happy classifying! 🚀

Table of Contents

Before You Begin

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed on your machine (run pip install <requirement_name> for each dependency or pip install -r requirements.txt to install all the required packages):

• Python 3.12 or higher (download from the official Python website)
• OpenCV
• TensorFlow
• PyTorch
• NumPy
• Matplotlib
• Tesseract OCR
• Pytesseract
• SpeechRecognition
• MoviePy
• PyDub
• PyAudio
• Scikit-learn
• Pandas
• NLTK
• tqdm
• Joblib
• YoloV3
• Git LFS (for downloading large model weights files)
• A webcam (if you want to use live testing)
• A microphone (if you want to use speech recognition)
• A video file or image file for testing the classifiers
• A stable internet connection (for downloading model weights and dependencies)
• A working speaker or headphones (for speech recognition)

Additionally, if you would like to train the sentiment classifier, you will need:

• A machine with sufficient computational resources
• The large training data file (training.1600000.processed.noemoticon.csv) or the small dataset generated from it (small_dataset.csv)

And if you would like to use the website version of this app, you will also need to install Flask and Flask-SocketIO.

It is also recommended to use a virtual environment to use these classifiers. You can create a virtual environment using venv or conda:

python -m venv env
source env/bin/activate

Main Script

If you prefer not to navigate through the subdirectories, you can run the main script main.py to choose and run any of the classifiers. The main script will ask you to choose a classifier from the list of available classifiers. You can then select a classifier and run it.

To run the main script, use the following command:

python main.py

The main script will display a list of available classifiers. Enter the number corresponding to the classifier you want to run. The script will then run the selected classifier.

To stop the script, press Q, ESC, or otherwise close the window.

Alternatively, you can also run the individual scripts in each subdirectory below to run the classifiers directly.

Flask Web App

If you would like to use the interactive website version of this app, you can run the Flask web app. The web app allows you to use the classifiers through a web interface. You can choose a classifier and the app will run the selected classifier.

To run the Flask web app, use the following command:

python app.py

The web app will start running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/. Open this URL in your web browser to access the web app. You can then choose a classifier from the list of available classifiers and run it. A pop-up window will display the output of the classifier - so be sure to allow pop-ups in your browser.

Note that the app has also been deployed to Heroku at this link. However, due to changes in Heroku's free tier regarding available Dynos (and I'm a broke college student), the app may not work as expected. If you encounter any issues, please run the app locally using the instructions above.

Special: Self-Trained Sentiment Classifier

In addition to the other pre-trained classifiers, this repository includes a special sentiment classifier that you can train yourself. The sentiment classifier is trained on a large dataset of tweets and can classify the sentiment of a sentence as positive, negative, or neutral. This is excellent for educational purposes and for understanding how sentiment analysis works.

Files Included

• sentiment_classifier.py: Python script for sentiment classification.
• train_model.py: Python script for training the sentiment classifier, which includes data preprocessing, model training, and evaluation.
• sentiment_model.pkl: Trained sentiment classifier model.
• vectorizer.pkl: Trained vectorizer for the sentiment classifier.
• training.1600000.processed.noemoticon.csv: Training data for the sentiment classifier (Large file).
• testdata.manual.2009.06.14.csv: Test data for the sentiment classifier.
• test.csv: Sample test data for the sentiment classifier.
• train.csv: Sample training data for the sentiment classifier.
• generate_small_dataset.py: Python script for generating a small dataset from the large training data.
• small_dataset.csv: Small dataset generated from the large training data.

Getting Started

1. Clone the Repository

   git clone https://github.com/hoangsonww/AI-Classification.git
   cd AI-Classification/Sentiment-Analysis
   

2. Install Dependencies

   pip install scikit-learn pandas numpy nltk tqdm joblib

3. Pull the Large Training Data

   The sentiment classifier is trained on a large dataset of tweets. The large training data is stored in a CSV file named training.1600000.processed.noemoticon.csv. This file is stored using Git LFS due to its large size. To pull the large training data, use the following command:

   git lfs install
   git lfs pull
   

   Alternatively, you can download the large training data from the Sentiment140 dataset website and place it in the Sentiment-Classifier directory. However, using Git LFS is recommended.

   If you do not have Git LFS installed, remember to install it first. You can find instructions on how to install Git LFS on the official Git LFS website.

   If you still encounter issues with Git LFS, you can download the training data file from my Google Drive here. If you need any other files, feel free to contact me!

4. Train the Sentiment Classifier

   python train_model.py

   When running the script, you will be asked to choose the dataset size (small or large). Enter small to use the small dataset or large to use the large dataset. The script will then preprocess the training data, train the sentiment classifier, and save the trained model and vectorizer to disk.

   However, if you choose small, the script will use the small dataset provided in the repository. In order to use it, be sure to run the generate_small_dataset.py script first to generate the small dataset from the large training data.

   python generate_small_dataset.py

   Note: Training the sentiment classifier on the large dataset may take a long time and require significant computational resources. However, it is recommended since it provides better model accuracy.

   Once again, if you are patient and have a good machine, you are encouraged use the large dataset to get a higher accuracy. Otherwise, use the small dataset for faster training.

   This script will then preprocess the training data, train the sentiment classifier, and save the trained model and vectorizer to disk. Additionally, it will output the expected accuracy, F1 score, and expected confidence level of the sentiment classifier. The higher these statistics are, the better the sentiment classifier will perform. Of course, this is highly dependent on the training dataset size and quality. Feel free to experiment with the training data and parameters to improve the sentiment classifier's performance.

5. Run Sentiment Classification

   python sentiment_classifier.py

   You will then be asked to enter a sentence for sentiment classification. Enter a sentence, and the script will classify the sentiment of the sentence as positive, negative, or neutral, with a level of confidence.

Output

The output will display the sentiment classification of the input sentence. The sentiment classifier will classify the sentiment as positive, negative, or neutral.

Training Output Example:

Classification Output Example:

Feel free to experiment with the sentiment classifier and test it with your own sentences and explore how powerful sentiment analysis can be!

Containerization

For ease of deployment and reproducibility, you can containerize the classifiers using Docker. The Dockerfile provided in each subdirectory allows you to build a Docker image containing the necessary dependencies and scripts to run the classifiers. You can then run the classifiers in a Docker container without worrying about installing dependencies or setting up the environment.

Run this command to build the Docker image:

docker build -t ai-classifiers .

After building the Docker image, you can run the classifiers in a Docker container using the following command:

docker run -it ai-classifiers

docker run -p 5000:5000 ai-multitask-classifiers

This will start the classifiers in a Docker container, and you can interact with them as you would on your local machine.

Note: Before containerization, be sure to have Docker installed on your machine. You can download and install Docker from the official Docker website. Once Docker is installed, you can proceed with building and running the Docker image as described above, provided that you have Docker Desktop running on your machine.
