`quickmt-fa-en` Neural Machine Translation Model

quickmt-fa-en is a reasonably fast and reasonably accurate neural machine translation model for translation from fa into en.

quickmt models are roughly 3 times faster for GPU inference than OpusMT models and roughly 40 times faster than LibreTranslate/ArgosTranslate.

UPDATED VERSION!

This model was trained with back-translated data and has improved translation quality!

Model Information

Trained using eole
200M parameter seq2seq transformer
32k separate Sentencepiece vocabs
Exported for fast inference to CTranslate2 format
The pytorch model (for use with eole) is available in this repository in the eole-model folder

See the eole model configuration in this repository for further details and the eole-model for the raw eole (pytorch) model.

Usage with `quickmt`

You must install the Nvidia cuda toolkit first, if you want to do GPU inference.

Next, install the quickmt python library.

bash

git clone https://github.com/quickmt/quickmt.git
pip install ./quickmt/

Finally, use the model in python:

python

from quickmt import Translator
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download

# Download Model (if not downloaded already) and return path to local model
# Device is either 'auto', 'cpu' or 'cuda'
mt = Translator(
    snapshot_download("quickmt/quickmt-fa-en", ignore_patterns="eole-model/*"),
    device="cpu"
)

# Translate - set beam size to 1 for faster speed (but lower quality)
sample_text = 'دکتر ایهود اور، استاد پزشکی دانشگاه دالهاوزی در هلیفکس، نوااسکوشیا و رئیس بخش کلینیکی و علمی انجمن دیابت کانادا هشدار داد که این تحقیق هنوز در روزهای آغازین خود می\u200cباشد.'

mt(sample_text, beam_size=5)

'Dr. Ehud Orr, a professor of medicine at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and head of the Canadian Diabetes Association’s clinical and scientific department, warned that the research is still in its early days.'

python

# Get alternative translations by sampling
# You can pass any cTranslate2 `translate_batch` arguments
mt([sample_text], sampling_temperature=1.2, beam_size=1, sampling_topk=50, sampling_topp=0.9)

'Dr. Ehud Orr, medical professor of Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia and head of the Clinical and Scientific Section of the Canadian Diabetes Association warned that the research is still in its early days.'

The model is in ctranslate2 format, and the tokenizers are sentencepiece, so you can use ctranslate2 directly instead of through quickmt. It is also possible to get this model to work with e.g. LibreTranslate which also uses ctranslate2 and sentencepiece. A model in safetensors format to be used with eole is also provided.

Metrics

bleu and chrf2 are calculated with sacrebleu on the Flores200 devtest test set. comet22 with the comet library and the default model. "Time (s)" is the time in seconds to translate the flores-devtest dataset (1012 sentences) on an RTX 4070s GPU with batch size 32.
