Examples#

This is a Python API example of COMET-MBR.

from mbrs.metrics import MetricCOMET
from mbrs.decoders import DecoderMBR

SOURCE = "ありがとう"
HYPOTHESES = ["Thanks", "Thank you", "Thank you so much", "Thank you.", "thank you"]

# Setup COMET.
metric_cfg = MetricCOMET.Config(
  model="Unbabel/wmt22-comet-da",
  batch_size=64,
  fp16=True,
)
metric = MetricCOMET(metric_cfg)

# Setup MBR decoding.
decoder_cfg = DecoderMBR.Config()
decoder = DecoderMBR(decoder_cfg, metric)

# Decode by COMET-MBR.
# This example regards the hypotheses themselves as the pseudo-references.
# Args: (hypotheses, pseudo-references, source)
output = decoder.decode(HYPOTHESES, HYPOTHESES, source=SOURCE, nbest=1)

print(f"Selected index: {output.idx}")
print(f"Output sentence: {output.sentence}")
print(f"Expected score: {output.score}")
