	# SeamlessM4T v2

	SeamlessM4T is our foundational all-in-one Massively Multilingual and Multimodal Machine Translation model delivering high-quality translation for speech and text in nearly 100 languages.

	SeamlessM4T models support the tasks of:
	- Speech-to-speech translation (S2ST)
	- Speech-to-text translation (S2TT)
	- Text-to-speech translation (T2ST)
	- Text-to-text translation (T2TT)
	- Automatic speech recognition (ASR).

	SeamlessM4T models support:
	- 🎤 101 languages for speech input.
	- 💬 96 Languages for text input/output.
	- 🔊 35 languages for speech output.

	🌟 We are releasing SemalessM4T v2, an updated version with our novel UnitY2 architecture.
	This new model improves over SeamlessM4T v1 in quality as well as inference speed in speech generation tasks.

	The v2 version of SeamlessM4T is a multitask adaptation of our novel UnitY2 architecture.
	Unity2 with its hierarchical character-to-unit upsampling and non-autoregressive text-to-unit decoding considerably improves over SeamlessM4T v1 in quality and inference speed.

	We provide the extensive evaluation results of seamlessM4T-Large and SeamlessM4T-Medium reported in the paper (as averages) in the `metrics` files above.

	The evaluation data ids for FLEURS, CoVoST2 and CVSS-C can be found [here](https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/seamless/metrics/evaluation_data_ids.zip)


	## Evaluating SeamlessM4T models
	To reproduce our results or to evaluate using the same metrics over your own test sets, please check out the [Evaluation README here](https://github.com/facebookresearch/seamless_communication/tree/main/src/seamless_communication/cli/m4t/evaluate).


	## Finetuning SeamlessM4T models
	Please check out the [Finetuning README here](https://github.com/facebookresearch/seamless_communication/tree/main/src/seamless_communication/cli/m4t/finetune).

	## Supported Languages:

	Listed below, are the languages supported by SeamlessM4T-large (v1/v2).
	The `source` column specifies whether a language is supported as source speech (`Sp`) and/or source text (`Tx`).
	The `target` column specifies whether a language is supported as target speech (`Sp`) and/or target text (`Tx`).
