# Machine Translation (MT) Models
This repository hosts two machine translation models that translate Maltese sentences to English.
## Models
### Model 1:
This model is sourced from [Kurt Abela's MSc Thesis repository](https://github.com/kurtabela/MSc-Thesis). If you utilize this model, kindly acknowledge it by citing the following:
```
@mastersthesis{kurt-abela-thesis,
title={Machine Translation System for Low Resource Languages},
author={Kurt Abela},
school={University of Malta},
address={Malta},
year={2023},
}
```
### Model 2:
The second model is the machine translation model used for the iWSLT 2023 shared task submission. For citation purposes, please use:
```
@inproceedings{williams2023dfki,
title={UM-DFKI Maltese Speech Translation},
author={Williams, Aiden and Abela, Kurt and Kumar, Rishu and B{\"a}r, Martin and Billinghurst, Hannah and Micallef, Kurt and Samin, Ahnaf Mozib and DeMarco, Andrea and van der Plas, Lonneke and Borg, Claudia},
booktitle={Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Spoken Language Translation (IWSLT 2023)},
pages={433--441},
year={2023}
}
```
## How to Use
All models are [Fairseq](https://github.com/facebookresearch/fairseq) models. Each directory contains the best checkpoint (in the ./checkpoints/mt_en directory). The dictionaries are kept in the ./data_out/mt_en directory. The sentencepiece model and vocabulary can be found in the ./models/mt_en directory.
To use the models, we guide users to the [Fairseq documentation](https://fairseq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html).
