# opus-mt-tc-big-en-fr

Neural machine translation model for translating from English (en) to French (fr).

This model is part of the [OPUS-MT project](https://github.com/Helsinki-NLP/Opus-MT), an effort to make neural machine translation models widely available and accessible for many languages in the world. All models are originally trained using the amazing framework of [Marian NMT](https://marian-nmt.github.io/), an efficient NMT implementation written in pure C++. The models have been converted to pyTorch using the transformers library by huggingface. Training data is taken from [OPUS](https://opus.nlpl.eu/) and training pipelines use the procedures of [OPUS-MT-train](https://github.com/Helsinki-NLP/Opus-MT-train).

## Model info

* Release: 2022-03-09
* source language(s): eng
* target language(s): fra
* model: transformer-big
* data: opusTCv20210807+bt ([source](https://github.com/Helsinki-NLP/Tatoeba-Challenge))
* tokenization: SentencePiece (spm32k,spm32k)
* original model: [opusTCv20210807+bt_transformer-big_2022-03-09.zip](https://object.pouta.csc.fi/Tatoeba-MT-models/eng-fra/opusTCv20210807+bt_transformer-big_2022-03-09.zip)
* more information released models: [OPUS-MT eng-fra README](https://github.com/Helsinki-NLP/Tatoeba-Challenge/tree/master/models/eng-fra/README.md)

## Usage

A short example code:

```python
from transformers import MarianMTModel, MarianTokenizer

src_text = [
    "The Portuguese teacher is very demanding.",
    "When was your last hearing test?"
]

model_name = "pytorch-models/opus-mt-tc-big-en-fr"
tokenizer = MarianTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = MarianMTModel.from_pretrained(model_name)
translated = model.generate(**tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt", padding=True))

for t in translated:
    print( tokenizer.decode(t, skip_special_tokens=True) )

# expected output:
#     Le professeur de portugais est très exigeant.
#     Quand a eu lieu votre dernier test auditif ?
```

You can also use OPUS-MT models with the transformers pipelines, for example:

```python
from transformers import pipeline
pipe = pipeline("translation", model="Helsinki-NLP/opus-mt-tc-big-en-fr")
print(pipe("The Portuguese teacher is very demanding."))

# expected output: Le professeur de portugais est très exigeant.
```
