opus-mt-tc-big-pt-zle

Neural machine translation model for translating from Portuguese (pt) to East Slavic languages (zle).

This model is part of the OPUS-MT project, an effort to make neural machine translation models widely available and accessible for many languages in the world. All models are originally trained using the amazing framework of Marian NMT, an efficient NMT implementation written in pure C++. The models have been converted to pyTorch using the transformers library by huggingface. Training data is taken from OPUS and training pipelines use the procedures of OPUS-MT-train.

Model info

This is a multilingual translation model with multiple target languages. A sentence initial language token is required in the form of >>id<< (id = valid target language ID), e.g. >>rus<<

Usage

A short example code:

from transformers import MarianMTModel, MarianTokenizer

src_text = [
    ">>ukr<< Esse é o meu lugar.",
    ">>rus<< Tom tem problemas de saúde."
]

model_name = "pytorch-models/opus-mt-tc-big-pt-zle"
tokenizer = MarianTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = MarianMTModel.from_pretrained(model_name)
translated = model.generate(**tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt", padding=True))

for t in translated:
    print( tokenizer.decode(t, skip_special_tokens=True) )

# expected output:
#     Це моє місце.
#     У Тома проблемы со здоровьем.

You can also use OPUS-MT models with the transformers pipelines, for example:

from transformers import pipeline
pipe = pipeline("translation", model="Helsinki-NLP/opus-mt-tc-big-pt-zle")
print(pipe(">>ukr<< Esse é o meu lugar."))

# expected output: Це моє місце.
