## Aina Project's English-Catalan machine translation model
## Model description
This model was trained from scratch using the [Fairseq toolkit](https://fairseq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) on a combination of English-Catalan datasets,
up to 11 million sentences. Additionally, the model is evaluated on several public datasets comprising 5 different domains (general, adminstrative, technology,
biomedical, and news).
## Intended uses and limitations
You can use this model for machine translation from English to Catalan.
## How to use
### Usage
Required libraries:
```bash
pip install ctranslate2 pyonmttok
```
Translate a sentence using python
```python
import ctranslate2
import pyonmttok
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
model_dir = snapshot_download(repo_id="projecte-aina/aina-translator-en-ca", revision="main")
tokenizer=pyonmttok.Tokenizer(mode="none", sp_model_path = model_dir + "/spm.model")
tokenized=tokenizer.tokenize("Welcome to the Aina Project!")
translator = ctranslate2.Translator(model_dir)
translated = translator.translate_batch([tokenized[0]])
print(tokenizer.detokenize(translated[0][0]['tokens']))
```
## Limitations and bias
At the time of submission, no measures have been taken to estimate the bias and toxicity embedded in the model.
However, we are well aware that our models may be biased. We intend to conduct research in these areas in the future, and if completed, this model card will be updated.

|--------------------|----------------|
| **Total** | **11.558.183** |
### Training procedure
### Data preparation
All datasets are concatenated and filtered using the [mBERT Gencata parallel filter](https://huggingface.co/projecte-aina/mbert-base-gencata).
Before training, the punctuation is normalized using a modified version of the join-single-file.py script from [SoftCatalà](https://github.com/Softcatala/nmt-models/blob/master/data-processing-tools/join-single-file.py)
#### Tokenization
All data is tokenized using sentencepiece, using 50 thousand token sentencepiece model learned from the combination of all filtered training data.
This model is included.
#### Hyperparameters
The model is based on the Transformer-XLarge proposed by [Subramanian et al.](https://aclanthology.org/2021.wmt-1.18.pdf)
The following hyperparamenters were set on the Fairseq toolkit:
| Hyperparameter | Value |
|------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
| Architecture | transformer_vaswani_wmt_en_de_bi |
| Embedding size | 1024 |
| Feedforward size | 4096 |
| Number of heads | 16 |
| Encoder layers | 24 |
| Decoder layers | 6 |
| Normalize before attention | True |
| --share-decoder-input-output-embed | True |
| --share-all-embeddings | True |
| Effective batch size | 96.000 |
| Optimizer | adam |
| Adam betas | (0.9, 0.980) |
| Clip norm | 0.0 |
| Learning rate | 1e-3 |
| Lr. schedurer | inverse sqrt |
| Warmup updates | 4000 |
| Dropout | 0.1 |
| Label smoothing | 0.1 |
The model was trained for a total of 45.000 updates. Weights were saved every 1000 updates and reported results are the average of the last 32 checkpoints.
