# FSMT

## Model description

This is a ported version of fairseq-based [wmt16 transformer](https://github.com/jungokasai/deep-shallow/) for en-de.

For more details, please, see [Deep Encoder, Shallow Decoder: Reevaluating the Speed-Quality Tradeoff in Machine Translation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.10369).

All 3 models are available:

* [wmt16-en-de-dist-12-1](https://huggingface.co/allenai/wmt16-en-de-dist-12-1)
* [wmt16-en-de-dist-6-1](https://huggingface.co/allenai/wmt16-en-de-dist-6-1)
* [wmt16-en-de-12-1](https://huggingface.co/allenai/wmt16-en-de-12-1)


## Intended uses & limitations

#### How to use

```python
from transformers import FSMTForConditionalGeneration, FSMTTokenizer
mname = "allenai/wmt16-en-de-dist-12-1"
tokenizer = FSMTTokenizer.from_pretrained(mname)
model = FSMTForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(mname)

input = "Machine learning is great, isn't it?"
input_ids = tokenizer.encode(input, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(input_ids)
decoded = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(decoded) # Maschinelles Lernen ist großartig, nicht wahr?

```

#### Limitations and bias


## Training data

Pretrained weights were left identical to the original model released by allenai. For more details, please, see the [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.10369).

## Eval results

Here are the BLEU scores:

model   | fairseq | transformers
-------|---------|----------
wmt16-en-de-dist-12-1  | 28.3 | 27.52

The score is slightly below the score reported in the paper, as the researchers don't use `sacrebleu` and measure the score on tokenized outputs. `transformers` score was measured using `sacrebleu` on detokenized outputs.

The score was calculated using this code:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/huggingface/transformers
cd transformers
export PAIR=en-de
export DATA_DIR=data/$PAIR
export SAVE_DIR=data/$PAIR
export BS=8
export NUM_BEAMS=5
mkdir -p $DATA_DIR
sacrebleu -t wmt16 -l $PAIR --echo src > $DATA_DIR/val.source
sacrebleu -t wmt16 -l $PAIR --echo ref > $DATA_DIR/val.target
echo $PAIR
PYTHONPATH="src:examples/seq2seq" python examples/seq2seq/run_eval.py allenai/wmt16-en-de-dist-12-1 $DATA_DIR/val.source $SAVE_DIR/test_translations.txt --reference_path $DATA_DIR/val.target --score_path $SAVE_DIR/test_bleu.json --bs $BS --task translation --num_beams $NUM_BEAMS
```
