AI-translator-9ja-to-eng

This model is a 418 Million parameter translation model, built for translating from Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa into English. It was trained on a dataset consisting of 1,500,000 sentences (500,000 for each language), providing high-quality translations for these languages. It was built with the intention of building a system that makes it easier to communicate with LLMs using Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba languages.

Model Details

• Languages Supported:
  • Source Language: Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa
  • Target Languages: English

Model Usage

To use this model for translation tasks, you can load it from Hugging Face’s transformers library:

from transformers import M2M100ForConditionalGeneration, M2M100Tokenizer

# Load the fine-tuned model
model = M2M100ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("HelpMumHQ/AI-translator-9ja-to-eng")
tokenizer = M2M100Tokenizer.from_pretrained("HelpMumHQ/AI-translator-9ja-to-eng")

Supported Language Codes

• English: en
• Yoruba: yo
• Igbo: ig
• Hausa: ha

Training Dataset

The training dataset consists of 1,500,000 translation pairs, sourced from a combination of open-source parallel corpora and curated datasets specific to Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa

Limitations

• While the model performs well across Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa to English translations, performance may vary depending on the complexity and domain of the text.
• Translation quality may decrease for extremely long sentences or ambiguous contexts.
