A sequence-to-sequence translation model based on VietAI ViT5-base, fine-tuned for Vietnamese to English machine translation.
This model is intended for general-purpose translation tasks, both academic and production-oriented.

Model Details

Model Description

This model is an encoder–decoder Transformer designed for text-to-text generation tasks such as translation.
It is fine-tuned from VietAI/vit5-base, a pretrained multilingual T5 variant optimized for Vietnamese NLP tasks.

Uses

Direct Use

Machine translation Viet → Eng
Text rewriting (Via Seq2Seq generation)
Academic NLP experiments
MT benchmarking

Downstream Use

Fine-tuning thêm cho domain-specific translation (y khoa, pháp lý, kỹ thuật)
Dùng trong pipeline dịch tự động hoặc chatbot đa ngữ

Out-of-Scope Use

Not suitable for evaluating legal or medical content.
Does not guarantee full accuracy for texts containing highly specialized terminology.
Not appropriate for processing sensitive data or personally identifiable information (PII).

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

The training data originates from open-source corpora, which may introduce stylistic or domain bias.
The model may produce incorrect translations in cases such as:
- ambiguous sentences
- culturally specific expressions
- very long or structurally complex sentences
Some translations may lose nuance, tone, or contextual meaning.

Recommendations

Users should manually review the translations when used in professional, safety-critical, or high-importance scenarios.

How to Get Started

python

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM

model_name = "tnguyen20604/vit5-translation-vi2en-v1"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained(model_name)

text = "Tôi yêu học máy."
inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs)

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