The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the guiding line to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They tackle the global challenges we face, including poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice. The OnePlanet network - an open partnership for sustainable development - provides a platform where all countries, including all relevant stakeholders and organizations, are invited to join and actively engage. Thus, the latter submit daily a large number of descriptions of innovative projects that may be linked to one or more SDGs. For experts, the task of linking all the texts submitted to the SDGs they deal with is very time consuming, which is why the need to automate this process is very important. In this context, we propose to solve this problem with a multi-lablel classification of texts using BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers). We first present the key steps for building our database, then the multi-label classification phase using BERT and finally we will present and discuss the obtained results.
This project is the global project for the SDG tool.
The main goal is to launch the entire project in production mode.
Do not update directly this project but use the SDG-Backend and SDG-Frontend projects instead.
The project uses submodules, in order to get them when cloning the project there are two solutions:
- Directly when Cloning the project
git clone https://github.com/Unep-Isep/SDG-Global-Project.git --recurse-submodules
- After cloning the project
git clone https://github.com/Unep-Isep/SDG-Global-Project.git
git submodule init
git submodule update
To update the project:
- To get changes from the current repository (except submodules) run
git pull - To get changes from the submodules run
git submodule update --remote
For more details on submodules check out the documentation
For launching the project we use Docker, be sure to have docker and docker-compose installed on the machine.
To launch the all project run:
docker-compose up --build -d
--build: In order to rebuild the containers
-d: To launch the containers in background
The project will be accessible on the port 80 of the machine: localhost:80
Warning: Be sure to update the hostName variable in script.js line 84:
- development: localhost
- production: the IP address of the server (62.160.8.100)
To remove the containers:
docker-compose down
for more details on docker-compose, check out the documentation
This project uses a Nginx reverse-proxy listening on port 80 in order to dispatch the requests to the appropriate service. The configuration is located in the nginx.conf file
- Requests which begin with /api will be redirected to the backend service
- Other requests will be handled by nginx to serve all the html, css, js and images files for the frontend.
To add another service use the syntax below
proxy_pass http://<NAME_OF_THE_SERVICE>:<PORT>;
