Qwen2.5-7B-Sep_2c1t

This model is released as part of our paper Doc2FRC: Length-Consistent Document-Level Machine Translation via Fixed-Range Chunking. The code and paper-specific inference scripts are available in the Doc2FRC GitHub repository.

Qwen2.5-7B-Sep_2c1t is a full-parameter fine-tuned version of Qwen/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct for multilingual chunk-level machine translation. It is the Sep_2c1t variant: each call uses two preceding source-language context chunks, provided separately in the Context1 and Context2 sections, and translates the current source chunk into one target chunk. The training examples were derived from sardinelab/DocBlocks using fixed-range chunking.

Supported translation directions

The model supports translation between English and the following languages in both directions:

• German
• Spanish
• French
• Italian
• Korean
• Dutch
• Portuguese
• Russian
• Chinese

General usage

The example below demonstrates general model usage for translating a current source chunk with two preceding source-language context chunks. For the exact document chunking, inference scripts, prompting setup, and evaluation procedure used in the paper, please refer to the Doc2FRC GitHub repository.

Recommended prompt format

The model was fine-tuned with the following raw ChatML-style translation prompt:

<|im_start|>user
Context1
{SOURCE_LANGUAGE}: {CONTEXT_TEXT_1}
Context2
{SOURCE_LANGUAGE}: {CONTEXT_TEXT_2}
Translate the following source text from {SOURCE_LANGUAGE} into {TARGET_LANGUAGE}.
{SOURCE_LANGUAGE}: {SOURCE_TEXT}.
{TARGET_LANGUAGE}: <|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant

Use full English language names such as English, Chinese, German, or Russian. The model was trained using fixed-range chunks of 256–512 tokens. CONTEXT_TEXT_1 is the earlier context chunk, and CONTEXT_TEXT_2 is the immediately preceding context chunk.

Transformers example

Install a PyTorch build appropriate for your hardware, together with Transformers and Accelerate. PyTorch 2.6 or later is recommended for loading the current PyTorch .bin checkpoint files.

pip install "transformers>=4.56.2" accelerate

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

MODEL_ID = "ynklab/Qwen2.5-7B-Sep_2c1t"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(MODEL_ID)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    MODEL_ID,
    dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto",
)
model.eval()

source_language = "English"
target_language = "Chinese"
context_text_1 = "We planned a picnic for this afternoon."
context_text_2 = "We checked the forecast before leaving."
source_text = "The weather is nice today"

prompt = (
    "<|im_start|>user\n"
    "Context1\n"
    f"{source_language}: {context_text_1}\n"
    "Context2\n"
    f"{source_language}: {context_text_2}\n"
    f"Translate the following source text from {source_language} "
    f"into {target_language}.\n"
    f"{source_language}: {source_text}.\n"
    f"{target_language}: <|im_end|>\n"
    "<|im_start|>assistant\n"
)

inputs = tokenizer(
    prompt,
    return_tensors="pt",
    add_special_tokens=False,
)
inputs = {name: tensor.to(model.device) for name, tensor in inputs.items()}

with torch.inference_mode():
    outputs = model.generate(
        **inputs,
        max_new_tokens=1024,
        do_sample=False,
        repetition_penalty=1.05,
    )

generated_tokens = outputs[0, inputs["input_ids"].shape[1]:]
translation = tokenizer.decode(
    generated_tokens,
    skip_special_tokens=True,
).strip()

print(translation)

For paper-level document translation, split the document into fixed-range chunks and reconstruct the translated chunks using the procedures provided in the Doc2FRC repository.
