PPLM allows a user to flexibly plug in one or more tiny attribute models representing the desired steering objective into a large, unconditional LM. The method has the key property that it uses the LM _as is_---no training or fine-tuning is required---which enables researchers to leverage best-in-class LMs even if they do not have the extensive hardware required to train them.

## Setup
TODO
```bash
git clone https://github.com/huggingface/transformers && cd transformers
pip install [--editable] .
pip install nltk torchtext # additional requirements.
cd examples/pplm
```
## PPLM-BoW
### Example command for bag-of-words control
```
```bash
python run_pplm.py -B space --cond_text "The president" --length 100 --gamma 1.5 --num_iterations 3 --num_samples 1 --stepsize 0.01 --window_length 5 --kl_scale 0.01 --gm_scale 0.95
```
### Tuning hyperparameters for bag-of-words control
1. Increase `--stepsize` to intensify topic control, and decrease its value to soften the control. `--stepsize 0` recovers the original uncontrolled GPT-2 model.
2. If the language being generated is repetitive (For e.g. "science science experiment experiment"), there are several options to consider: </br>

## PPLM-Discrim
### Example command for discriminator based sentiment control
```
```bash
python run_pplm.py -D sentiment --class_label 3 --cond_text "The lake" --length 10 --gamma 1.0 --num_iterations 10 --num_samples 1 --stepsize 0.03 --kl_scale 0.01 --gm_scale 0.95
```
### Tuning hyperparameters for discriminator control
1. Increase `--stepsize` to intensify topic control, and decrease its value to soften the control. `--stepsize 0` recovers the original uncontrolled GPT-2 model.
2. Use `--class_label 3` for negative, and `--class_label 2` for positive
