Model Card for SynEst Translation Models

The SynEst models are machine translation models focused on translating from and into the Estonian language.

Model Details

The models are based on the NLLB-1.3B multilingual model. The NLLB encoder is frozen, and a new, smaller decoder is trained for each target language.

Languages

The models were trained to translate from Estonian into German, English, Finnish, Russian, Ukrainian, and Chinese, and into Estonian from Arabic, German, English, Finnish, French, Lithuanian, Latvian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian, and Chinese.

However, as the parameters of the NLLB encoder are frozen, they are capable of translating from any of the NLLB languages as well, albeit likely with a lower quality than for the languages on which they were fine-tuned.

How to Use the Model

The easiest way to run the models is with the dedicated branch of the TartuNLP translation worker (place nllb-based with all its contents inside the models/ directory).
