mBART-50 English ↔ Pnar Translation (Gold Dataset)

Model Description

This model is a fine-tuned version of Facebook's mBART-50 multilingual sequence-to-sequence model for machine translation between English and Pnar.

The model was trained on a curated Gold parallel dataset consisting of English–Pnar sentence pairs and evaluated on a held-out test set.

Base Model

Model: facebook/mbart-large-50
Architecture: Transformer Encoder-Decoder
Framework: Hugging Face Transformers

Training Details

Dataset

Language Pair: English ↔ Pnar
Training Dataset: Gold Parallel Corpus
Validation Dataset: Held-out Gold Validation Set
Test Dataset: 604 parallel sentence pairs

Training Configuration

Epochs: 5
Learning Rate: 5e-5
Batch Size: 16
Mixed Precision: FP16
Optimizer: AdamW
Maximum Sequence Length: 160

Best Validation Performance

Epoch	Validation Loss
1	2.2268
2	1.7741
3	1.7491
4	1.8374
5	1.9467

Best validation loss was achieved around Epoch 3.

Evaluation

Evaluation was performed on a held-out test set containing 604 English–Pnar sentence pairs. Metrics were computed in both translation directions.

English → Pnar

Metric	Score
BLEU	25.80
ChrF	49.16
TER	58.84
COMET	0.6731

Pnar → English

Metric	Score
BLEU	9.19
ChrF	27.76
TER	94.73
COMET	0.4500

Usage

python

from transformers import MBartForConditionalGeneration, MBart50Tokenizer

model = MBartForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("FithaAsma/mbart-pnar-gold")
tokenizer = MBart50Tokenizer.from_pretrained("FithaAsma/mbart-pnar-gold")

text = "Please arrange the chairs before the guests arrive."

inputs = tokenizer(
    text,
    return_tensors="pt",
    truncation=True,
    max_length=160
)

outputs = model.generate(
    **inputs,
    max_length=160,
    num_beams=4
)

translation = tokenizer.decode(
    outputs[0],
    skip_special_tokens=True
)

print(translation)

Limitations

Performance is significantly stronger in the English → Pnar direction than in the reverse direction.
The model was trained on a limited-resource language pair and may struggle with domain-specific terminology, named entities, or highly complex sentences.
Additional training data and larger-scale fine-tuning may further improve translation quality.
