ApsuaTranslator-Lite-v1

Русская версия

ApsuaTranslator-Lite-v1 is a bidirectional Russian–Abkhaz model distilled from ApsuaTranslator-v1. Compared with the full model, its weight file is 6× smaller on disk, loaded weights use 3× less memory, and translation is 2.5× faster. It was developed as part of the Abkhaz Language Corpus project.

The model was trained using Apsua Corpus, a Russian–Abkhaz parallel corpus built through human-in-the-loop translation and editorial review.

Model

Evaluation

Case-insensitive BLEU on an independent test set spanning conversation, reviews, informational texts, and literature.

Usage

pip install "git+https://huggingface.co/apsua/ApsuaTranslator-Lite-v1"

from apsua_translator import Translator

translator = Translator.from_pretrained("apsua/ApsuaTranslator-Lite-v1")

print(translator.translate("Добрый день!", source_lang="ru", target_lang="ab"))
print(translator.translate("Мшыбзиа!", source_lang="ab", target_lang="ru"))

translate accepts one string or a list of strings. Device selection is automatic in the order CUDA, Apple MPS, CPU; it can also be set explicitly.

The release uses the included apsua_translator.Translator runtime and is not a transformers.AutoModel package.
