Introduction of m2m100_418m-amh-eng
Model Details of m2m100_418m-amh-eng
m2m100_418m-amh-eng
This model is part of the AfriScience-MT project, focused on machine translation of scientific texts for African languages.
Model Description
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Model Type | Seq2Seq Translation |
| Translation Direction | Amharic → English |
| Base Model | facebook/m2m100_418M |
| Domain | Scientific/Academic texts |
| Training | Full fine-tuning on AfriScience-MT dataset |
Evaluation Results
Performance on the AfriScience-MT test set:
| Split | BLEU | chrF | SSA-COMET |
|---|---|---|---|
| Validation | 30.16 | 54.71 | 64.04 |
| Test | 26.15 | 50.75 | 62.59 |
Metrics explanation:
- BLEU : Measures n-gram overlap with reference translations (0-100, higher is better)
- chrF : Character-level F-score, robust for morphologically rich languages (0-100, higher is better)
- SSA-COMET : Neural metric trained for Sub-Saharan African languages, shown as percentage (0-100, higher is better) ( McGill-NLP/ssa-comet-stl )
Usage
Quick Start
from transformers import AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM, AutoTokenizer
model_id = "dsfsi/m2m100_418m-amh-eng"
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained(model_id)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
# Set source language
tokenizer.src_lang = "am"
# Translate
text = "The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell."
inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt", padding=True, truncation=True, max_length=256)
# Generate with target language
forced_bos_token_id = tokenizer.get_lang_id("en")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, forced_bos_token_id=forced_bos_token_id, max_length=256, num_beams=5)
translation = tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
print(translation)
Batch Translation
texts = [
"Climate change affects agricultural productivity.",
"The study analyzed genetic markers in the population.",
"Renewable energy sources are essential for sustainable development."
]
inputs = tokenizer(texts, return_tensors="pt", padding=True, truncation=True, max_length=256)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, forced_bos_token_id=forced_bos_token_id, max_length=256, num_beams=5)
translations = tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True)
for src, tgt in zip(texts, translations):
print(f"{src}\n→ {tgt}\n")

Limitations
- Domain Specificity : This model is optimized for scientific/academic texts and may perform poorly on colloquial or informal text.
- Language Coverage : Only supports the specific language pair indicated.
- Input Length : Maximum input length is 256 tokens; longer texts should be split into segments.
