Neural machine translation (NMT) is an automatic task of translating a sequence of words from one language to another. In recent years, the development of attention-based transformer models has had a profound impact on complicated language modeling tasks, which predict the next upcoming token in the sentence. NMT is one of the typical instances. There are plenty of open-source NMT models…

In the first post, we walked through the prerequisites for a neural machine translation example from English to Chinese, running the pretrained model with NeMo, and evaluating its performance. In this post, we walk you through curating a custom dataset and fine-tuning the model on that dataset. Custom data collection is crucial in model fine-tuning because it enables a model to adapt to…
