opus-mt-tc-big-zle-zls

Neural machine translation model for translating from East Slavic languages (zle) to South Slavic languages (zls).

This model is part of the OPUS-MT project, 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, 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 and training pipelines use the procedures of OPUS-MT-train.

  • more information released models: OPUS-MT zle-zls README
  • more information about the model: MarianMT

This is a multilingual translation model with multiple target languages. A sentence initial language token is required in the form of >>id<< (id = valid target language ID), e.g. >>bul<<

Usage

A short example code:

from transformers import MarianMTModel, MarianTokenizer

src_text = [
    ">>bul<< Новы каранавірус Π²Π΅Π»ΡŒΠΌΡ– Π·Π°Ρ€Π°Π·Π½Ρ‹.",
    ">>srp_Latn<< ΠœΠΎΡ” Ρ–ΠΌ'я β€” Π‘Π°Π»Π»Ρ–."
]

model_name = "pytorch-models/opus-mt-tc-big-zle-zls"
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:
#     ΠšΠΎΡ€ΠΎΠ½Π°Ρ‚Π° Π΅ силно Π·Π°Ρ€Π°Π·Π½Π°.
#     Zovem se Sali.

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

from transformers import pipeline
pipe = pipeline("translation", model="Helsinki-NLP/opus-mt-tc-big-zle-zls")
print(pipe(">>bul<< Новы каранавірус Π²Π΅Π»ΡŒΠΌΡ– Π·Π°Ρ€Π°Π·Π½Ρ‹."))

# expected output: ΠšΠΎΡ€ΠΎΠ½Π°Ρ‚Π° Π΅ силно Π·Π°Ρ€Π°Π·Π½Π°.
