Model Card for Traductor Inclusivo

This model is a fine-tuned version of projecte-aina/aguila-7b on the dataset somosnlp/es-inclusive-language.

Languages are powerful tools to communicate ideas, but their use is not impartial. The selection of words carries inherent biases and reflects subjective perspectives. In some cases, language is wielded to enforce ideologies, marginalize certain groups, or promote specific political agendas. Spanish is not the exception to that. For instance, when we say “los alumnos” or “los ingenieros”, we are excluding women from those groups. Similarly, expressions such as “los gitanos” o “los musulmanes” perpetuate discrimination against these communities.

In response to these linguistic challenges, this model offers a way to construct inclusive alternatives in accordance with official guidelines on inclusive language from various Spanish speaking countries. Its purpose is to provide grammatically correct and inclusive solutions to situations where our language choices might otherwise be exclusive. By rectifying biases ingrained in language and fostering inclusivity, it combats discrimination, amplifies the visibility of marginalized groups, and contributes to the cultivation of a more inclusive and respectful society. This is a tool that contributes to the Sustainable Development Goals number five (Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls) and ten (Reduce inequality within and among countries).

The model works in such a way that, given an input text, it returns the original text rewritten using inclusive language.

It achieves the following results on the validation set:

• Loss: 0.6030

Uses

Direct Use

The general uses of this model are adaptations of texts in Spanish to inclusive language.

It can be used mainly to adapt news, blogposts, emails and official documents among others.

Out-of-Scope Use

This model is specifically designed for translating Spanish texts to Spanish texts in inclusive language. Using the model for unrelated tasks is considered out of scope. This model can not be used with commercial purposes, it is intended for research or educational purposes only.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

• Model has not been trained on long-complex texts.
• Model has been trained mostly with sentences where the terms to be modified are at the beginning of the sentence.
• Model returns only one translation option when several might also be adequate.
• Possible small information omission on translation.
• Possible forced use of the term "personas".
• Model does not detect or modify hate speech.
• Model has been trained on data mainly based on Spanish Inclusive Language Guidelines and may inherit any bias comming from the guidelines and institutions behind them. They are official and updated guidelines that should not contain strong biases.
• Model may not work propperly on translation difficulties aside the list of difficulties present on es-inclusive-language dataset
• Other biases coming from the train dataset es-inclusive-language dataset should be taken into account.

Recommendations

Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model.

How to Get Started with the Model

Use the code below to get started with the model in 16-bits.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
import torch

# Load tokenizer and model
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('somosnlp/', trust_remote_code=True)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained('somosnlp/', trust_remote_code=True,
    quantization_config=bnb_config,
    device_map="auto")

# generation_config
generation_config = model.generation_config
generation_config.max_new_tokens = 100
generation_config.temperature = 0.7
generation_config.top_p = 0.7
generation_config.num_return_sequences = 1
generation_config.pad_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id
generation_config.eos_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id

# Define inference function
def translate_es_inclusivo(exclusive_text): 
    
    # generate input prompt
    eval_prompt = f"""Reescribe el siguiente texto utilizando lenguaje inclusivo.\n
      Texto: {exclusive_text}\n
      Texto en lenguaje inclusivo:"""
    
    # tokenize input
    model_input = tokenizer(eval_prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
    
    # set max_new_tokens if necessary
    if len(model_input['input_ids'][0]) > 80:
        model.generation_config.max_new_tokens = len(model_input['input_ids'][0]) + 0.2 * len(model_input['input_ids'][0])
    
    # get length of encoded prompt
    prompt_token_len = len(model_input['input_ids'][0])
        
    # generate and decode
    with torch.no_grad():
        inclusive_text = tokenizer.decode(model.generate(**model_input, generation_config=generation_config)[0][prompt_token_len:], 
                                          skip_special_tokens=True)                                                                        
    
    return inclusive_text

As it is a heavy model, you may want to use it in 4-bits:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
from transformers import BitsAndBytesConfig
import torch


## Load model in 4bits
# bnb_configuration
bnb_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(
    load_in_4bit=True,
    bnb_4bit_quant_type='nf4',
    bnb_4bit_compute_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    bnb_4bit_use_double_quant=False)


# model
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained('somosnlp/', trust_remote_code=True,
    quantization_config=bnb_config,
    device_map="auto")

# Load tokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('somosnlp/', trust_remote_code=True)

# generation_config
generation_config = model.generation_config
generation_config.max_new_tokens = 100
generation_config.temperature = 0.7
generation_config.top_p = 0.7
generation_config.num_return_sequences = 1
generation_config.pad_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id
generation_config.eos_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id

    with torch.no_grad():
        inclusive_text = tokenizer.decode(model.generate(**model_input, generation_config=generation_config)[0][prompt_token_len:], 
                                          skip_special_tokens=True)

Evaluation

Testing Data, Factors & Metrics

Testing Data

Here you can find the validation set used during training. Here you can find the test set used for evaluating model errors.

Metrics

For test evaluation it has been used a weighted harmonic mean of metrics bleurt (60%) and Sacrebleu (40%).

In Sacrebleu metric grammatical correctness carries high weight compared to the actual words used, whereas in Bleurt metric the actual words used have higher weight over grammatical correctness. Combining both metrics, we account for a grammatically correct prediction together with the use of the required specific words.

Results

On this notebook you can find the results of the test evaluation.

We get an average score of 68.4 (measured with the above described metric). Due to the existence of equivalent language formulas (these are inclusive language formulas that can be used indistinctly and the choice of a formula over the other is rather a stylistic decision than a language correctness decision) it is possible to argue that the real score of the model is higher.
