Unbabel/XCOMET-XL

xCOMET stands for eXplainable COMET. This is an evaluation model that is trained to identify errors in sentences along with a final quality score and thus leading to an explainable neural metric. This is the XL version with ~3.5B parameters.

• xCOMET: Transparent Machine Translation Evaluation through Fine-grained Error Detection

Usage (unbabel-comet)

This model requires unbabel-comet (>=2.2.0) to be installed:

pip install --upgrade pip  # ensures that pip is current 
pip install "unbabel-comet>=2.2.0"

Then you can use it through comet CLI:

comet-score -s {source-inputs}.txt -t {translation-outputs}.txt -r {references}.txt --model Unbabel/XCOMET-XL

and if used with the --to_json flag you can also export the error spans detected by the model:

comet-score -s {source-inputs}.txt -t {translation-outputs}.txt -r {references}.txt --model Unbabel/XCOMET-XL --to_json {output}.json

Or using Python:

from comet import download_model, load_from_checkpoint

model_path = download_model("Unbabel/XCOMET-XL")
model = load_from_checkpoint(model_path)
data = [
    {
        "src": "Boris Johnson teeters on edge of favour with Tory MPs", 
        "mt": "Boris Johnson ist bei Tory-Abgeordneten völlig in der Gunst", 
        "ref": "Boris Johnsons Beliebtheit bei Tory-MPs steht auf der Kippe"
    }
]
model_output = model.predict(data, batch_size=8, gpus=1)
# Segment-level scores
print (model_output.scores)

# System-level score
print (model_output.system_score)

# Score explanation (error spans)
print (model_output.metadata.error_spans)
