afriteva_small

Model desription

AfriTeVa small is a sequence to sequence model pretrained on 10 African languages

Languages

Afaan Oromoo(orm), Amharic(amh), Gahuza(gah), Hausa(hau), Igbo(igb), Nigerian Pidgin(pcm), Somali(som), Swahili(swa), Tigrinya(tig), Yoruba(yor)

More information on the model, dataset:

The model

  • 64M parameters encoder-decoder architecture (T5-like)
  • 6 layers, 8 attention heads and 512 token sequence length

The dataset

  • Multilingual: 10 African languages listed above
  • 143 Million Tokens (1GB of text data)
  • Tokenizer Vocabulary Size: 70,000 tokens

Intended uses & limitations

afriteva_small is pre-trained model and primarily aimed at being fine-tuned on multilingual sequence-to-sequence tasks.

>>> from transformers import AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM, AutoTokenizer
>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("castorini/afriteva_small")
>>> model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("castorini/afriteva_small")
>>> src_text = "Ó hùn ọ́ láti di ara wa bí?"
>>> tgt_text =  "Would you like to be?"
>>> model_inputs = tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt")
>>> with tokenizer.as_target_tokenizer():
        labels = tokenizer(tgt_text, return_tensors="pt").input_ids
>>> model(**model_inputs, labels=labels) # forward pass
