IndicTrans2

This is the model card of IndicTrans2 En-Indic 1.1B variant.

Here are the metrics for the particular checkpoint.

Please refer to Appendix D: Model Card of the preprint for further details on model training, intended use, data, metrics, limitations and recommendations.

🚩NOTE 🚩Indic-Translate is now available. It supports 22 Indian languages as well as English and has better translation capabilities compared to IndicTrans2. We recommend using Indic-Translate.

Usage Instructions

Please refer to the github repository for a detail description on how to use HF compatible IndicTrans2 models for inference.

📢 Long Context IT2 Models

• New RoPE based IndicTrans2 models which are capable of handling sequence lengths upto 2048 tokens are available here
• 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.
