# IndicTrans2

This is the model card of IndicTrans2 Indic-En Distilled 200M variant.

Please refer to [section 7.6: Distilled Models](https://openreview.net/forum?id=vfT4YuzAYA) in the TMLR submission for further details on model training, data and metrics.

### Usage Instructions

Please refer to the [github repository](https://github.com/AI4Bharat/IndicTrans2/tree/main/huggingface_interface) for a detail description on how to use HF compatible IndicTrans2 models for inference.

```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM, AutoTokenizer
from IndicTransToolkit import IndicProcessor
# recommended to run this on a gpu with flash_attn installed
# don't set attn_implemetation if you don't have flash_attn
DEVICE = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"

src_lang, tgt_lang = "hin_Deva", "eng_Latn"
model_name = "ai4bharat/indictrans2-indic-en-dist-200M"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name, trust_remote_code=True)

model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name, 
    trust_remote_code=True, 
    torch_dtype=torch.float16, # performance might slightly vary for bfloat16
    attn_implementation="flash_attention_2"
).to(DEVICE)

ip = IndicProcessor(inference=True)

input_sentences = [
    "जब मैं छोटा था, मैं हर रोज़ पार्क जाता था।",
    "हमने पिछले सप्ताह एक नई फिल्म देखी जो कि बहुत प्रेरणादायक थी।",
    "अगर तुम मुझे उस समय पास मिलते, तो हम बाहर खाना खाने चलते।",
    "मेरे मित्र ने मुझे उसके जन्मदिन की पार्टी में बुलाया है, और मैं उसे एक तोहफा दूंगा।",
]

batch = ip.preprocess_batch(
    input_sentences,
    src_lang=src_lang,
    tgt_lang=tgt_lang,
)

DEVICE = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"

# Tokenize the sentences and generate input encodings
inputs = tokenizer(
    batch,
    truncation=True,
    padding="longest",
    return_tensors="pt",
    return_attention_mask=True,
).to(DEVICE)

# Generate translations using the model
with torch.no_grad():
    generated_tokens = model.generate(
        **inputs,
        use_cache=True,
        min_length=0,
        max_length=256,
        num_beams=5,
        num_return_sequences=1,
    )

# Decode the generated tokens into text
with tokenizer.as_target_tokenizer():
    generated_tokens = tokenizer.batch_decode(
        generated_tokens.detach().cpu().tolist(),
        skip_special_tokens=True,
        clean_up_tokenization_spaces=True,
    )

# Postprocess the translations, including entity replacement
translations = ip.postprocess_batch(generated_tokens, lang=tgt_lang)

for input_sentence, translation in zip(input_sentences, translations):
    print(f"{src_lang}: {input_sentence}")
    print(f"{tgt_lang}: {translation}")
```

### 📢 Long Context IT2 Models
- New RoPE based IndicTrans2 models which are capable of handling sequence lengths **upto 2048 tokens** are available [here](https://huggingface.co/collections/prajdabre/indictrans2-rope-6742ddac669a05db0804db35)
- These models can be used by just changing the `model_name` parameter. Please read the model card of the RoPE-IT2 models for more information about the generation.
- It is recommended to run these models with `flash_attention_2` for efficient generation.
