Inspired by Rico Sennrich's `multi-bleu-detok.perl`, it produces the official WMT scores but works with plain text. It also knows all the standard test sets and handles downloading, processing, and tokenization for you. See the [README.md] file at https://github.com/mjpost/sacreBLEU for more information. """ _KWARGS_DESCRIPTION = """ Produces BLEU scores along with its sufficient statistics from a source against one or more references. Args: predictions (`list` of `str`): list of translations to score. Each translation should be tokenized into a list of tokens. references (`list` of `list` of `str`): A list of lists of references. The contents of the first sub-list are the references for the first prediction, the contents of the second sub-list are for the second prediction, etc. Note that there must be the same number of references for each prediction (i.e. all sub-lists must be of the same length). smooth_method (`str`): The smoothing method to use, defaults to `'exp'`. Possible values are: - `'none'`: no smoothing - `'floor'`: increment zero counts - `'add-k'`: increment num/denom by k for n>1 - `'exp'`: exponential decay smooth_value (`float`): The smoothing value. Only valid when `smooth_method='floor'` (in which case `smooth_value` defaults to `0.1`) or `smooth_method='add-k'` (in which case `smooth_value` defaults to `1`). tokenize (`str`): Tokenization method to use for BLEU. If not provided, defaults to `'zh'` for Chinese, `'ja-mecab'` for Japanese and `'13a'` (mteval) otherwise. Possible values are: - `'none'`: No tokenization. - `'zh'`: Chinese tokenization. - `'13a'`: mimics the `mteval-v13a` script from Moses. - `'intl'`: International tokenization, mimics the `mteval-v14` script from Moses - `'char'`: Language-agnostic character-level tokenization. - `'ja-mecab'`: Japanese tokenization. Uses the [MeCab tokenizer](https://pypi.org/project/mecab-python3). lowercase (`bool`): If `True`, lowercases the input, enabling case-insensitivity. Defaults to `False`. force (`bool`): If `True`, insists that your tokenized input is actually detokenized. Defaults to `False`. use_effective_order (`bool`): If `True`, stops including n-gram orders for which precision is 0. This should be `True`, if sentence-level BLEU will be computed. Defaults to `False`.
