FLAN-T5-base Fine-tuned for Dhivehi-English-Latin Translation

This model is a fine-tuned version of google/flan-t5-base for multilingual translation between Dhivehi, English and Latin script.

Model description

The model was trained on a combination of:

• English-Dhivehi parallel corpus
• Dhivehi-Latin transliteration pairs

It supports the following translation directions:

• English to Dhivehi (en2dv)
• Dhivehi to English (dv2en)
• Dhivehi to Latin script (dv2latin)
• Latin script to Dhivehi (latin2dv)

Training and Evaluation

The model was trained for 3 epochs with the following parameters:

• Learning rate: 3e-4
• Batch size: 2
• Weight decay: 0.01
• Max sequence length: 128 tokens

Final training metrics:

• Training loss: 1.305
• Training runtime: 535,653 seconds
• Training samples per second: 3.733

Final evaluation metrics:

• Evaluation loss: 1.167
• ROUGE-1: 0.415
• ROUGE-2: 0.288
• ROUGE-L: 0.402
• ROUGE-Lsum: 0.405
• Evaluation runtime: 131,307 seconds
• Evaluation samples per second: 5.077

Usage

To use the model, you can load it using the from_pretrained method:

from transformers import T5ForConditionalGeneration, AutoTokenizer

model = T5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("alakxender/flan-t5-base-dhivehi-en-latin")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("alakxender/flan-t5-base-dhivehi-en-latin")

supported_languages = ["en2dv", "dv2en", "dv2latin", "latin2dv"]

def translate(source_text, target_language):
    prompt = f"{target_language.strip()} {source_text.strip()}"
    inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt", max_length=128, truncation=True)
    output_ids = model.generate(
        **inputs,
        max_length=128,
        min_length=10,
        num_beams=4,
        early_stopping=True,
        no_repeat_ngram_size=3,
        repetition_penalty=1.2,
        do_sample=False,
        pad_token_id=tokenizer.pad_token_id,
        eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id
    )
    result = tokenizer.decode(output_ids[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
    return result

target_language = "dv2en"

print(translated_text)

*Note: The model was fine-tuned mostly on english-dhivehi local news articles. It may not perform well on other domains.
