Portuguese-based creoles to Portuguese-based creoles translation model translate-cpp-cpp

Open machine translation from Portuguese-based creoles into Portuguese-based creoles, published by Windstorm Labs on Hugging Face. This model covers several target languages; see the snippet for the target token.

Download on Hugging Face How to run

Task: Translation: Portuguese-based creoles → Portuguese-based creoles
Languages: Portuguese-based creoles cpp
Lineage: OPUS-MT
Format: transformers (Marian), safetensors
Hugging Face: WindyTranslate/translate-cpp-cpp
Last updated on HF: 2026-08-04

Quality

Not yet scored. FLORES-200 has no test set for Portuguese-based creoles → Portuguese-based creoles, so this pair is outside the screening run.

How to run

Shell

pip install transformers sentencepiece torch

Python

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM

repo = "WindyTranslate/translate-cpp-cpp"
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(repo)
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained(repo)

# Several target languages: start each input with a target token such as >>xxx<<.
# The valid tokens are listed in the upstream model card.
batch = tok([">>xxx<< <Portuguese-based creoles text>"], return_tensors="pt", padding=True)
print(tok.batch_decode(model.generate(**batch), skip_special_tokens=True)[0])

Tested: Pattern run on 2026-10-01 against WindyTranslate/translate-tc-big-en-fr with transformers 4.57.6 and 5.18.0 on CPU ("Où se trouve la gare ?"); multi-target token prefix run against translate-tc-bible-big-mul-deu_eng_nld. Not run on every model individually.
