This is a finetuned mBART model (https://github.com/facebookresearch/fairseq/tree/main/examples/mbart) suitable for Finnish sentence simplification. 
The checkpoint is a **fairseq** checkpoint. PID on Kielipankki: http://urn.fi/urn:nbn:fi:lb-2024011801.

Paper: [Towards Automatic Finnish Text Simplification](https://aclanthology.org/2024.determit-1.4.pdf) (Dmitrieva & Tiedemann, DeTermIt-WS 2024).

The finetuning data can be obtained here: http://urn.fi/urn:nbn:fi:lb-2024011703. If you wish to replicate the results, you can find the training, validation, and testing sentence pairs' ids in the "splits.zip" archive in this repository. The ids contain the following information: "{regular text id}\__{simple text id}__{sentence pair number}".
