**This dataset card is still a draft version. The dataset has not been uploaded yet.** | |
This is a record of German language paraphrases. These are text pairs that have the same meaning but are expressed in different words. | |
The source of the paraphrases are different parallel German / English text corpora. | |
The English texts were machine translated back into German. This is how the paraphrases were obtained. | |

## To-do | |
- add column description | |
- upload dataset | |
- change own license to cc | |
## Back translation | |
We have made the back translation from English to German with the help of [Fairseq](https://github.com/facebookresearch/fairseq). | |
We used the `transformer.wmt19.en-de` model for this purpose: | |
```python | |
en2de = torch.hub.load( | |
"pytorch/fairseq", | |
"transformer.wmt19.en-de", | |
checkpoint_file="model1.pt:model2.pt:model3.pt:model4.pt", | |
tokenizer="moses", | |
bpe="fastbpe", | |
) | |
``` | |
