## Model Details

Neural machine translation model for translating from South Slavic languages (zls) to German (de).

This model is part of the [OPUS-MT project](https://github.com/Helsinki-NLP/Opus-MT), an effort to make neural machine translation models widely available and accessible for many languages in the world. All models are originally trained using the amazing framework of [Marian NMT](https://marian-nmt.github.io/), an efficient NMT implementation written in pure C++. The models have been converted to pyTorch using the transformers library by huggingface. Training data is taken from [OPUS](https://opus.nlpl.eu/) and training pipelines use the procedures of [OPUS-MT-train](https://github.com/Helsinki-NLP/Opus-MT-train).
**Model Description:**
- **Developed by:** Language Technology Research Group at the University of Helsinki
- **Model Type:** Translation (transformer-big)
- **Release**: 2022-07-26
- **License:** CC-BY-4.0
- **Language(s):**  
  - Source Language(s): bos_Latn bul hbs hrv mkd slv srp_Cyrl srp_Latn
  - Target Language(s): deu
  - Language Pair(s): bul-deu hbs-deu hrv-deu mkd-deu slv-deu srp_Cyrl-deu srp_Latn-deu

## Uses

This model can be used for translation and text-to-text generation.

## Risks, Limitations and Biases

**CONTENT WARNING: Readers should be aware that the model is trained on various public data sets that may contain content that is disturbing, offensive, and can propagate historical and current stereotypes.**

Significant research has explored bias and fairness issues with language models (see, e.g., [Sheng et al. (2021)](https://aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long.330.pdf) and [Bender et al. (2021)](https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3442188.3445922)).

## How to Get Started With the Model

A short example code:

```python
from transformers import MarianMTModel, MarianTokenizer

src_text = [
    "Jesi li ti student?",
    "Dve stvari deca treba da dobiju od svojih roditelja: korene i krila."
]

model_name = "pytorch-models/opus-mt-tc-big-zls-de"
tokenizer = MarianTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = MarianMTModel.from_pretrained(model_name)
translated = model.generate(**tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt", padding=True))

for t in translated:
    print( tokenizer.decode(t, skip_special_tokens=True) )

# expected output:
#     Sind Sie Student?
#     Zwei Dinge sollten Kinder von ihren Eltern bekommen: Wurzeln und Flügel.
```

You can also use OPUS-MT models with the transformers pipelines, for example:

```python
from transformers import pipeline
pipe = pipeline("translation", model="Helsinki-NLP/opus-mt-tc-big-zls-de")
print(pipe("Jesi li ti student?"))

# expected output: Sind Sie Student?
```

## Training

- **Data**: opusTCv20210807 ([source](https://github.com/Helsinki-NLP/Tatoeba-Challenge))
- **Pre-processing**: SentencePiece (spm32k,spm32k)
- **Model Type:**  transformer-big
- **Original MarianNMT Model**: [opusTCv20210807_transformer-big_2022-07-26.zip](https://object.pouta.csc.fi/Tatoeba-MT-models/zls-deu/opusTCv20210807_transformer-big_2022-07-26.zip)
