A TensorFlow implementation of the bidirectional language model (biLM) used to compute ELMo deep contextualized word representations. It supports both training new biLMs and running pre-trained models to produce contextual embeddings for downstream NLP tasks.

Use cases

• compute ELMo embeddings for text in TensorFlow
• train a bidirectional language model on my own corpus
• get contextualized word representations for a downstream NLP model
• precompute ELMo vectors for a fixed dataset
• use pretrained ELMo weights for prediction

When to choose

• you need ELMo embeddings specifically in TensorFlow 1.x
• you want to train or fine-tune a bidirectional LM from the ELMo paper
• you need character-level input handling for arbitrary text

When to avoid

• you want modern transformer embeddings like BERT or GPT
• you use TensorFlow 2.x or PyTorch (prefer TensorFlow Hub or AllenNLP)
• you need actively maintained software with recent dependency support
