Lao to Vietnamese Translation Model
In the domain of natural language processing (NLP), the development of translation models tailored for low-resource languages represents a critical endeavor to facilitate cross-cultural communication and knowledge exchange. In response to this challenge, we present a novel and impactful contribution: a translation model specifically designed to bridge the linguistic gap between Lao and Vietnamese.
Lao, a language spoken primarily in Laos and parts of Thailand, presents inherent challenges for machine translation due to its low-resource nature, characterized by limited parallel corpora and linguistic resources. Vietnamese, a language spoken by millions worldwide, shares some linguistic similarities with Lao, making it an ideal target language for translation purposes.
Leveraging the power of the Transformer-based T5 model, we have developed a robust translation system for the Lao-Vietnamese language pair. The T5 model, renowned for its versatility and effectiveness across various NLP tasks, serves as the cornerstone of our approach. Through fine-tuning on a curated dataset of Lao-Vietnamese parallel texts, we have endeavored to enhance translation accuracy and fluency, thus enabling smoother communication between speakers of these languages.
Our work represents a significant advancement in the field of machine translation, particularly for low-resource languages like Lao. By harnessing state-of-the-art NLP techniques and focusing on the specific linguistic nuances of the Lao-Vietnamese language pair, we aim to provide a valuable resource for facilitating cross-linguistic communication and cultural exchange.
How to use
On GPU
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("minhtoan/t5-translate-lao-vietnamese")
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("minhtoan/t5-translate-lao-vietnamese")
model.cuda()
src = "ຂ້ອຍຢາກຊື້ປຶ້ມາ"
tokenized_text = tokenizer.encode(src, return_tensors="pt").cuda()
model.eval()
translate_ids = model.generate(tokenized_text, max_length=200)
output = tokenizer.decode(translate_ids[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
output
'Tôi muốn mua một cuốn sách'
On CPU
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("minhtoan/t5-translate-lao-vietnamese")
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("minhtoan/t5-translate-lao-vietnamese")
src = "ຂ້ອຍຢາກຊື້ປຶ້ມ"
input_ids = tokenizer(src, max_length=200, return_tensors="pt", padding="max_length", truncation=True).input_ids
outputs = model.generate(input_ids=input_ids, max_new_tokens=200)
output = tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
output
'Tôi muốn mua một cuốn sách'
