Model Details

Neural machine translation model for translating from Italic languages (itc) to Turkish (tr).

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.

Developed by: Language Technology Research Group at the University of Helsinki

Uses

This model can be used for translation and text-to-text generation.

Risks, Limitations and Biases

CONTENT WARNING: Readers should be aware that the model is trained on various public data sets that may contain content that is disturbing, offensive, and can propagate historical and current stereotypes.

Significant research has explored bias and fairness issues with language models (see, e.g., Sheng et al. (2021) and Bender et al. (2021)).

How to Get Started With the Model

A short example code:

from transformers import MarianMTModel, MarianTokenizer

src_text = [
    ""Di che nazionalità sono le tue dottoresse?" "Malese."",
    ""Di che nazionalità sono i nostri amici?" "Maltese.""
]

model_name = "pytorch-models/opus-mt-tc-big-itc-tr"
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:
#     "Doktorların hangi milletten?" "Malezyalı."
#     "Arkadaşlarımız hangi milletten?" "Maltalı."

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-itc-tr")
print(pipe(""Di che nazionalità sono le tue dottoresse?" "Malese.""))

# expected output: "Doktorların hangi milletten?" "Malezyalı."
