T5 English, Russian and Chinese multilingual machine translation

This model represents a conventional T5 transformer in multitasking mode for translation into the required language, precisely configured for machine translation for pairs: ru-zh, zh-ru, en-zh, zh-en, en-ru, ru-en.

The model can perform direct translation between any pair of Russian, Chinese or English languages. For translation into the target language, the target language identifier is specified as a prefix 'translate to :'. In this case, the source language may not be specified, in addition, the source text may be multilingual.

Example translate Russian to Chinese

from transformers import T5ForConditionalGeneration, T5Tokenizer

model_name = 'utrobinmv/t5_translate_en_ru_zh_large_1024'
model = T5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = T5Tokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

prefix = 'translate to zh: '
src_text = prefix + "Съешь ещё этих мягких французских булок."

# translate Russian to Chinese
input_ids = tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt")

generated_tokens = model.generate(**input_ids)

result = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)
print(result)
# 再吃这些法国的甜蜜的面包。

and Example translate Chinese to Russian

from transformers import T5ForConditionalGeneration, T5Tokenizer

model_name = 'utrobinmv/t5_translate_en_ru_zh_large_1024'
model = T5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = T5Tokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

prefix = 'translate to ru: '
src_text = prefix + "再吃这些法国的甜蜜的面包。"

# translate Russian to Chinese
input_ids = tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt")

generated_tokens = model.generate(**input_ids)

result = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)
print(result)
# Съешьте этот сладкий хлеб из Франции.
