This project focuses on building a Neural Machine Translation (NMT) system to translate English sentences to Hindi. NMT has revolutionized the field of language translation by leveraging deep learning techniques to produce more accurate and natural-sounding translations.
-
Encoder-Decoder Architecture: The NMT system employs an encoder-decoder architecture, where the encoder encodes the input English sentence into a fixed-size context vector, and the decoder generates the corresponding Hindi translation from the context vector.
-
Attention Mechanism: To handle longer sentences and capture relevant information effectively, an attention mechanism is integrated. This allows the model to focus on different parts of the input sentence while generating the output.
-
Data Preprocessing: The project includes data preprocessing steps to clean and normalize input sentences, ensuring better alignment and accuracy in translation.
-
Training and Evaluation: The model is trained on a parallel corpus of English-Hindi sentence pairs. During training, the model learns to minimize the translation loss. The evaluation process demonstrates the model's translation quality with selected input sentences.
-
Visualization of Attention: The project offers a visualization of attention weights, showing how the model attends to different parts of the input during translation.
-
Data Preparation: Prepare your parallel corpus of English-Hindi sentence pairs. Ensure that your data is properly formatted and cleaned.
-
Model Configuration: Set up the encoder and attention-based decoder architecture in the code. Define the hyperparameters, such as hidden size, learning rate, and dropout rate.
-
Training: Train the model using the provided training functions. Adjust the number of training iterations, print intervals, and other parameters as needed.
-
Evaluation and Visualization: Evaluate the model's translation quality using the
evaluateAndShowAttention
function. Provide your English input sentences and observe both the translated output and attention visualization.
