IndexError: List Index out of range Keras Tokenizer - python-3.x

Question

I'm working with the sentiment140 dataset to try and learn sentiment analysis using RNNs. I found this tutorial online that uses the keras.imdb datasource, but I want to try and use my own datasource, so I have tried to adapt the code my own data.
Tutorial: https://towardsdatascience.com/a-beginners-guide-on-sentiment-analysis-with-rnn-9e100627c02e
The data preprocessing involves extracting series data and then tokenizing and padding it before sending it to the model for training. I performed these operations below, in my code but whenever I try to run the training I get if isinstance(data[0], list):IndexError: list index out of range. I did not define data so this leads me to believe that I did something that keras or tensorflow did not like. Any ideas as to what is causing this error?
My data is currently in a csv file format with the headers being SENTIMENT and TEXT. SENTIMENT is 0 for negative and 1 for positive. TEXT is the processed tweet that was collected. Here is a sample.
Dataset CSV (Only a view lines to save space)
SENTIMENT,TEXT
0,about to file tax
0,ahh i hate dogs
1,My paycheck came in today
1,lot to do before chi this weekend

Answer 1

Edit
My former suggestion is wrong. I've checked your code and run it, and it works without errors for me.
Then I've looked at the source code, standardize_input_data function. There's a line which checks a data argument:
def standardize_input_data(data,
names,
shapes=None,
check_batch_axis=True,
exception_prefix=''):
"""Normalizes inputs and targets provided by users.
Users may pass data as a list of arrays, dictionary of arrays,
or as a single array. We normalize this to an ordered list of
arrays (same order as `names`), while checking that the provided
arrays have shapes that match the network's expectations.
# Arguments
data: User-provided input data (polymorphic).
...
At the line 79:
elif isinstance(data, list):
if isinstance(data[0], list):
...
So, it looks like in case of error an input data is list, but a list of zero length.
A standartize_input_data function is called inside Model.fit(...) method throught a call to Model._standardize_user_data(...). Through this chain of functions, passed data argument gets a value of x argument of Model.fit(x, y, ...). So, I guess is that the problem with type or content of X_train2 or X_valid. Would you provide X_train2 and X_val in addition to X_train content?
Old wrong suggestion
You should increase vocabulary size by one to deal with out-of-vocabulary tokens, I guess.
I.e, change initialization of the Embedding layer:
model.add(Embedding(vocabulary_size + 1, embedding_size, input_length=max_words))
According to the docs, "input_dim: int > 0. Size of the vocabulary, i.e. maximum integer index + 1".
You may check a max. value of the max(X_train) (edited).
Hope it helps!
