Unbabel / Comet

Quick Installation

Detailed usage examples and instructions can be found in the Full Documentation.

Simple installation from PyPI

pip install unbabel-comet

To develop locally install Poetry and run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/Unbabel/COMET
poetry install

Scoring MT outputs:

Via Bash:

Examples from WMT20:

echo -e "Dem Feuer konnte Einhalt geboten werden\nSchulen und Kindergärten wurden eröffnet." >> src.de
echo -e "The fire could be stopped\nSchools and kindergartens were open" >> hyp.en
echo -e "They were able to control the fire.\nSchools and kindergartens opened" >> ref.en

comet score -s src.de -h hyp.en -r ref.en

You can export your results to a JSON file using the --to_json flag and select another model/metric with --model.

comet score -s src.de -h hyp.en -r ref.en --model wmt-large-hter-estimator --to_json segments.json

Via Python:

from comet.models import download_model
model = download_model("wmt-large-da-estimator-1719")
data = [
    {
        "src": "Dem Feuer konnte Einhalt geboten werden",
        "mt": "The fire could be stopped",
        "ref": "They were able to control the fire."
    },
    {
        "src": "Schulen und Kindergärten wurden eröffnet.",
        "mt": "Schools and kindergartens were open",
        "ref": "Schools and kindergartens opened"
    }
]
model.predict(data, cuda=True, show_progress=True)

Simple Pythonic way to convert list or segments to model inputs:

source = ["Dem Feuer konnte Einhalt geboten werden", "Schulen und Kindergärten wurden eröffnet."]
hypothesis = ["The fire could be stopped", "Schools and kindergartens were open"]
reference = ["They were able to control the fire.", "Schools and kindergartens opened"]

data = {"src": source, "mt": hypothesis, "ref": reference}
data = [dict(zip(data, t)) for t in zip(*data.values())]

model.predict(data, cuda=True, show_progress=True)

Note: Using the python interface you will get a list of segment-level scores. You can obtain the corpus-level score by averaging the segment-level scores

Model Zoo:

QE-as-a-metric:

Train your own Metric:

Instead of using pretrained models your can train your own model with the following command:

comet train -f {config_file_path}.yaml

Tensorboard:

Launch tensorboard with:

tensorboard --logdir="experiments/"

Download Command:

To download public available corpora to train your new models you can use the download command. For example to download the APEQUEST HTER corpus just run the following command:

comet download -d apequest --saving_path data/

unittest:

In order to run the toolkit tests you must run the following command:

coverage run --source=comet -m unittest discover
coverage report -m
