Note that MiLMMT-46-1B-Pretrain is NOT a translation model.
Training Data
We collect monolingual data from DCAD-2000. For parallel data, we collect all Chinese-centric and English-centric parallel datasets from the OPUS collection up to August 2025 and conduct a series of filtering processes, such as language identification, semantic duplication filtering, quality filtering, and more.
