**Model Description** 

Model created with OpenNMT-py 3.2 for the Spanish-Aragonese pair using a transformer architecture. The model was converted to the ctranslate2 format.
This model was trained for the paper Training and fine-tuning NMT models for low-resource languages using Apertium-based synthetic corpora

**How to Translate with this Model**

+ Install [Python 3.9](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-390/) 
+ Install [ctranslate 3.2](https://github.com/OpenNMT/CTranslate2)
+ Translate an input_text using the NOS-MT-es-arg model with the following command:
```bash
    perl tokenizer.perl < input.txt > input.tok
```
```bash
    subword_nmt.apply_bpe -c ./bpe/es.bpe < input.tok > input.bpe
```
```bash 
    python3 translate.py ./ct2-arg input.bpe > output.txt
```
```bash
    sed -i 's/@@ //g' output.txt
```
