## Model description

This model was trained from scratch using the [Fairseq toolkit](https://fairseq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) on a combination of Catalan-Italian datasets, which after filtering and cleaning comprised 9.482.927 sentence pairs. The model was evaluated on the Flores and NTREX evaluation datasets. 

## Intended uses and limitations

You can use this model for machine translation from Italian 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/mt-aina-it-ca", revision="main")
tokenizer=pyonmttok.Tokenizer(mode="none", sp_model_path = model_dir + "/spm.model")
tokenized=tokenizer.tokenize("Benvingut al projecte Aina!")
translator = ctranslate2.Translator(model_dir)
translated = translator.translate_batch([tokenized[0]])
print(tokenizer.detokenize(translated[0][0]['tokens']))
```

## Training

### Training data

The model was trained on a combination of the following datasets:

| Dataset       	| Sentences  	| Sentences after Cleaning|
|-------------------|----------------|-------------------|
| CCMatrix  v1  	| 11.444.720  	| 	7.757.357|
|  MultiCCAligned v1	| 1.379.251	|   1.010.921|
| WikiMatrix  	| 316.208 	| 271.587 	|
| GNOME	| 8.571	|	1.198|
| KDE4    	| 163.907   	|  115.027 	|
| QED           	| 64.630    	|   52.616 	|
| TED2020 v1    	| 50.897 	| 43.280 |
| OpenSubtitles	| 391.293	| 225.732	|
| GlobalVoices| 6.318 	|	5.209|
| **Total**     	| **13.825.795** | **9.482.927** |

### Training procedure

### Data preparation

 All datasets are deduplicated and filtered to remove any sentence pairs with a cosine similarity of less than 0.75. This is done using sentence embeddings calculated using [LaBSE](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/LaBSE). The filtered datasets are then concatenated to form a final corpus of 9.482.927 and 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, with a 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 hyperparameters were set on the Fairseq toolkit:

| Hyperparameter                 	| Value                        	|
|------------------------------------|----------------------------------|

| 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           	| 48.000                       	|

| Dropout                        	| 0.1                          	|
| Label smoothing                	| 0.1                          	|
The model was trained for a total of 19.000 updates. Weights were saved every 1000 updates and reported results are the average of the last 4 checkpoints.
## Evaluation
### Variable and metrics
We use the BLEU score for evaluation on the Flores test set: [Flores-101](https://github.com/facebookresearch/flores), 
### Evaluation results
Below are the evaluation results on the machine translation from Catalan to Italian compared to [Softcatalà](https://www.softcatala.org/) and [Google Translate](https://translate.google.es/?hl=es):
