# MTData
[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mtdata/)
MTData automates the collection and preparation of machine translation (MT) datasets.
It provides CLI and python APIs, which can be used for preparing MT experiments.
* [Quickstart Example](#quickstart--example)
* [Docs](https://thammegowda.github.io/mtdata/)
* [Search datasets](https://thammegowda.github.io/mtdata/search.html)
This tool knows:
- From where to download data sets: WMT News Translation tests and devs for Paracrawl,
Europarl, News Commentary, WikiTitles, Tilde Model corpus, OPUS ...
- How to extract files : .tar, .tar.gz, .tgz, .zip, ...
- How to parse .tmx, .sgm and such XMLs, or .tsv ... Checks if they have same number of segments.
- Whether parallel data is in one .tsv file or two sgm files.
- Whether data is compressed in gz, xz or none at all.
- Whether the source-target is in the same order or is it swapped as target-source order.
- How to map code to ISO language codes! Using ISO 639_3 that has space for 7000+ languages of our planet.
- New in v0.3: BCP-47 like language ID: (language, script, region)
- Download only once and keep the files in local cache.
- (And more of such tiny details over the time.)
[MTData](https://github.com/thammegowda/mtdata) is here to:
- Automate machinbe translation training data creation by taking out human intervention. This is inspired by [SacreBLEU](https://github.com/mjpost/sacreBLEU) that takes out human intervention at the evaluation stage.
- A reusable tool instead of dozens of use-once shell scripts spread across multiple repos.

## CLI Usage
- After pip installation, the CLI can be called using `mtdata` command or `python -m mtdata`
- There are two sub commands: `list` for listing the datasets, and `get` for getting them
### `mtdata list`
Lists datasets that are known to this tool.
```bash
mtdata list -h
usage: __main__.py list [-h] [-l L1-L2] [-n [NAME ...]] [-nn [NAME ...]] [-f] [-o OUT]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-l L1-L2, --langs L1-L2
Language pairs; e.g.: deu-eng (default: None)
-n [NAME ...], --names [NAME ...]
Name of dataset set; eg europarl_v9. (default: None)
-nn [NAME ...], --not-names [NAME ...]
Exclude these names (default: None)
-f, --full Show Full Citation (default: False)
```
```bash
# List everything ; add | cut -f1 to see ID column only
mtdata list | cut -f1
# List a lang pair
mtdata list -l deu-eng
# List a dataset by name(s)
mtdata list -n europarl
mtdata list -n europarl news_commentary
# list by both language pair and dataset name
mtdata list -l deu-eng -n europarl news_commentary newstest_deen | cut -f1
Statmt-europarl-9-deu-eng
Statmt-europarl-7-deu-eng
Statmt-news_commentary-14-deu-eng
Statmt-news_commentary-15-deu-eng
Statmt-news_commentary-16-deu-eng
Statmt-newstest_deen-2014-deu-eng
Statmt-newstest_deen-2015-deu-eng
Statmt-newstest_deen-2016-deu-eng
Statmt-newstest_deen-2017-deu-eng
Statmt-newstest_deen-2018-deu-eng
Statmt-newstest_deen-2019-deu-eng
Statmt-newstest_deen-2020-deu-eng
Statmt-europarl-10-deu-eng
OPUS-europarl-8-deu-eng
# get citation of a dataset (if available in index.py)
mtdata list -l deu-eng -n newstest_deen --full
```
### Dataset ID
Dataset IDs are standardized to this format:
`<Group>-<name>-<version>-<lang1>-<lang2>`
* `Group`: source or the website where we are obtaining this dataset
* `name`: name of the dataset
* `version`: version name
* `lang1` and `lang2` are BCP47-like codes. In simple case, they are ISO-639-3 codes, however, they might have script and language tags separated by underscores (`_`).
### `mtdata get`
This command downloads datasets specified by names for languages to a directory.
You will have to make definite choice for `--train` and `--test` arguments
```
mtdata get -h
python -m mtdata get -h
usage: __main__.py get [-h] -l L1-L2 [-tr [ID ...]] [-ts [ID ...]] [-dv ID] [--merge | --no-merge] [--compress] -o OUT_DIR
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-l L1-L2, --langs L1-L2
Language pairs; e.g.: deu-eng (default: None)
-tr [ID ...], --train [ID ...]
Names of datasets separated by space, to be used for *training*.
e.g. -tr Statmt-news_commentary-16-deu-eng europarl_v9 .
To concatenate all these into a single train file, set --merge flag. (default: None)
-ts [ID ...], --test [ID ...]
Names of datasets separated by space, to be used for *testing*.
e.g. "-ts Statmt-newstest_deen-2019-deu-eng Statmt-newstest_deen-2020-deu-eng ".
You may also use shell expansion if your shell supports it.
e.g. "-ts Statmt-newstest_deen-20{19,20}-deu-eng" (default: None)
-dv ID, --dev ID Dataset to be used for development (aka validation).
e.g. "-dv Statmt-newstest_deen-2017-deu-eng" (default: None)
--merge Merge train into a single file (default: False)
--no-merge Do not Merge train into a single file (default: True)
--compress Keep the files compressed (default: False)
-o OUT_DIR, --out OUT_DIR
Output directory name (default: None)
```

## Recipes
> Since v0.3.1
Recipe is a set of datasets nominated for train, dev, and tests, and are meant to improve reproducibility of experiments.
Recipes are loaded from
1. Default: [`mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml`](mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml) from source code
2. Cache dir: `$MTDATA/mtdata.recipes.yml` where `$MTDATA` has default of `~/.mtdata`
3. Current dir: All files matching the glob: `$PWD/mtdata.recipes*.yml`
* If current dir is not preferred, `export MTDATA_RECIPES=/path/to/dir`
* Alternatively, `MTDATA_RECIPES=/path/to/dir mtdata list-recipe`
See [`mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml`](mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml) for the format and examples.
```bash
mtdata list-recipe # see all recipes
mtdata get-recipe -ri <recipe_id> -o <out_dir> # get recipe, recreate dataset
```
## Language Name Standardization
### ISO 639 3
Internally, all language codes are mapped to ISO-639 3 codes.
The mapping can be inspected with `python -m mtdata.iso ` or `mtdata-iso`
```bash
$ mtdata-iso -h
usage: python -m mtdata.iso [-h] [-b] [langs [langs ...]]
ISO 639-3 lookup tool
positional arguments:
langs Language code or name that needs to be looked up. When no
language code is given, all languages are listed.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-b, --brief be brief; do crash on error inputs
# list all 7000+ languages and their 3 letter codes
$ mtdata-iso # python -m mtdata.iso
...
# lookup codes for some languages
$ mtdata-iso ka kn en de xx english german
Input ISO639_3 Name
ka kat Georgian
kn kan Kannada
en eng English
de deu German
xx -none- -none-
english eng English
german deu German
# Print no header, and crash on error;
$ mtdata-iso xx -b
Exception: Unable to find ISO 639-3 code for 'xx'. Please run
python -m mtdata.iso | grep -i <name>
to know the 3 letter ISO code for the language.
```
To use Python API
```python
from mtdata.iso import iso3_code
print(iso3_code('en', fail_error=True))
print(iso3_code('eNgLIsH', fail_error=True)) # case doesnt matter
```
### BCP-47
> Since v0.3.0
We used ISO 639-3 from the beginning, however, we soon faced the limitation that ISO 639-3 cannot distinguish script and region variants of language. So we have upgraded to BCP-47 like language tags in `v0.3.0`.
* BCP47 uses two-letter codes to some and three-letter codes to the rest, we use three-letter codes to all languages.
* BCP47 uses `-` hyphens we use `_` underscores, since hyphens are used by MT community to separate bitext pairs (e.g. en-de or eng-deu)
Our tags are of form `xxx_Yyyy_ZZ` where
| Pattern | Purpose | Standard | Length | Case | Required |
|---------|----------|------------|---------------|-----------|-----------|
| `xxx` | Language | ISO 639-3 | three-letters | lowercase | mandatory |
| `Yyyy` | Script | ISO 15924 | four-letters | Titlecase | optional |
| `ZZ` | Region | ISO 3166-1 | two-letters | CAPITALS | optional |
Notes:
* Region is preserved when available and left blank when unavailable
* Script `Yyyy` is forcibly suppressed in obvious cases. E.g. `eng` is written using `Latn` script, writing `eng-Latn` is just awkward to read as `Latn` is default we suppress `Latn` script for English. On the other hand a language like `Kannada` is written using `Knda` script (`kan-Knda` -> `kan`), but occasionally written using `Latn` script, so `kan-Latn` is not suppressed.
* The information about what is default script is obtained from IANA language code registry
* Language code `mul` stands for _multiple languages, and is used as a placeholder for multilingual datasets (See `mul-eng` to represent many-to-English dataset recipes in [(mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml](mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml))
#### Example:
To inspect parsing/mapping, use `python -m mtdata.iso.bcp47 <args>`
```bash
mtdata-bcp47 eng English en-US en-GB eng-Latn kan Kannada-Deva hin-Deva kan-Latn
```
| INPUT | STD | LANG | SCRIPT | REGION |
|---------------|-----------|-------|---------|--------|
| eng | eng | eng | None | None |
| English | eng | eng | None | None |
| en-US | eng_US | eng | None | US |
| en-GB | eng_GB | eng | None | GB |
| eng-Latn | eng | eng | None | None |
| kan | kan | kan | None | None |
| Kannada-Deva | kan_Deva | kan | Deva | None |
| hin-Deva | hin | hin | None | None |
| kan-Latn | kan_Latn | kan | Latn | None |
| kan-in | kan_IN | kan | None | IN |
| kn-knda-in | kan_IN | kan | None | IN |
**Python API for BCP47 Mapping**
```python
from mtdata.iso.bcp47 import bcp47
tag = bcp47("en_US")
print(*tag) # tag is a tuple
print(f"{tag}") # str(tag) gets standardized string
```
## How to Contribute:
* Please help grow the datasets by adding any missing and new datasets to [`index`](mtdata/index/__init__.py) module.
* Please create issues and/or pull requests at https://github.com/thammegowda/mtdata/
## Change Cache Directory:
The default cache directory is `$HOME/.mtdata`.
It can grow to a large size when you download a lot of datasets using this command.
To change it:
* set the following environment variable
`export MTDATA=/path/to/new-cache-dir`
* Alternatively, move `$HOME/.mtdata` to the desired place and create a symbolic link
```bash
mv $HOME/.mtdata /path/to/new/place
ln -s /path/to/new/place $HOME/.mtdata
```
## Run tests
Tests are located in [tests/](tests) directory. To run all the tests:
python -m pytest

Default: [`mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml`](mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml) from source code\n2. Cache dir: `$MTDATA/mtdata.recipes.yml` where `$MTDATA` has default of `~/.mtdata`\n3. Current dir: All files matching the glob: `$PWD/mtdata.recipes*.yml` \n * If current dir is not preferred, `export MTDATA_RECIPES=/path/to/dir`\n * Alternatively, `MTDATA_RECIPES=/path/to/dir mtdata list-recipe` \n\nSee [`mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml`](mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml) for the format and examples.\n\n```bash\nmtdata list-recipe # see all recipes\nmtdata get-recipe -ri <recipe_id> -o <out_dir> # get recipe, recreate dataset\n```\n\n## Language Name Standardization\n### ISO 639 3 \nInternally, all language codes are mapped to ISO-639 3 codes.\nThe mapping can be inspected with `python -m mtdata.iso ` or `mtdata-iso`\n```bash\n$ mtdata-iso -h\nusage: python -m mtdata.iso [-h] [-b] [langs [langs ...]]\n\nISO 639-3 lookup tool\n\npositional arguments:\n langs Language code or name that needs to be looked up. When no\n language code is given, all languages are listed.\n\noptional arguments:\n -h, --help show this help message and exit\n -b, --brief be brief; do crash on error inputs\n\n# list all 7000+ languages and their 3 letter codes\n$ mtdata-iso # python -m mtdata.iso \n...\n\n# lookup codes for some languages\n$ mtdata-iso ka kn en de xx english german\nInput ISO639_3 Name\nka kat Georgian\nkn kan Kannada\nen eng English\nde deu German\nxx -none- -none-\nenglish eng English\ngerman deu German\n\n# Print no header, and crash on error; \n$ mtdata-iso xx -b\nException: Unable to find ISO 639-3 code for 'xx'. Please run\npython -m mtdata.iso | grep -i <name>\nto know the 3 letter ISO code for the language.\n```\nTo use Python API\n```python\nfrom mtdata.iso import iso3_code\nprint(iso3_code('en', fail_error=True))\nprint(iso3_code('eNgLIsH', fail_error=True)) # case doesnt matter\n```\n\n### BCP-47 \n\n> Since v0.3.0\n\nWe used ISO 639-3 from the beginning, however, we soon faced the limitation that ISO 639-3 cannot distinguish script and region variants of language. So we have upgraded to BCP-47 like language tags in `v0.3.0`.\n\n* BCP47 uses two-letter codes to some and three-letter codes to the rest, we use three-letter codes to all languages.\n* BCP47 uses `-` hyphens we use `_` underscores, since hyphens are used by MT community to separate bitext pairs (e.g. en-de or eng-deu)\n\n\nOur tags are of form `xxx_Yyyy_ZZ` where \n \n| Pattern | Purpose | Standard | Length | Case | Required | \n|---------|----------|------------|---------------|-----------|-----------|\n| `xxx` | Language | ISO 639-3 | three-letters | lowercase | mandatory |\n| `Yyyy` | Script | ISO 15924 | four-letters | Titlecase | optional |\n| `ZZ` | Region | ISO 3166-1 | two-letters | CAPITALS | optional |\n\n\nNotes:\n* Region is preserved when available and left blank when unavailable\n* Script `Yyyy` is forcibly suppressed in obvious cases. E.g. `eng` is written using `Latn` script, writing `eng-Latn` is just awkward to read as `Latn` is default we suppress `Latn` script for English. On the other hand a language like `Kannada` is written using `Knda` script (`kan-Knda` -> `kan`), but occasionally written using `Latn` script, so `kan-Latn` is not suppressed. \n* The information about what is default script is obtained from IANA language code registry\n* Language code `mul` stands for _multiple languages, and is used as a placeholder for multilingual datasets (See `mul-eng` to represent many-to-English dataset recipes in [(mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml](mtdata/recipe/recipes.yml))\n\n#### Example:\nTo inspect parsing/mapping, use `python -m mtdata.iso.bcp47 <args>` \n\n```bash\nmtdata-bcp47 eng English en-US en-GB eng-Latn kan Kannada-Deva hin-Deva kan-Latn\n```\n\n| INPUT\t | STD\t | LANG\t | SCRIPT\t | REGION |\n|---------------|-----------|-------|---------|--------|\n| eng\t | eng\t | eng\t | None\t | None |\n| English\t | eng\t | eng\t | None\t | None |\n| en-US\t | eng_US\t | eng\t | None\t | US |\n| en-GB\t | eng_GB\t | eng\t | None\t | GB |\n| eng-Latn\t | eng\t | eng\t | None\t | None |\n| kan\t | kan\t | kan\t | None\t | None |\n| Kannada-Deva\t | kan_Deva\t | kan\t | Deva\t | None |\n| hin-Deva\t | hin\t | hin\t | None\t | None |\n| kan-Latn\t | kan_Latn\t | kan\t | Latn\t | None |\n| kan-in\t | kan_IN\t | kan\t | None\t | IN |\n| kn-knda-in\t | kan_IN\t | kan\t | None\t | IN |\n\n**Python API for BCP47 Mapping**\n```python\nfrom mtdata.iso.bcp47 import bcp47\ntag = bcp47(\"en_US\")\nprint(*tag) # tag is a tuple\nprint(f\"{tag}\") # str(tag) gets standardized string\n```\n\n## How to Contribute:\n* Please help grow the datasets by adding any missing and new datasets to [`index`](mtdata/index/__init__.py) module.\n* Please create issues and/or pull requests at https://github.com/thammegowda/mtdata/ \n\n## Change Cache Directory:\n\nThe default cache directory is `$HOME/.mtdata`.\nIt can grow to a large size when you download a lot of datasets using this command.\n\nTo change it: \n* set the following environment variable\n`export MTDATA=/path/to/new-cache-dir`\n* Alternatively, move `$HOME/.mtdata` to the desired place and create a symbolic link \n```bash\nmv $HOME/.mtdata /path/to/new/place\nln -s /path/to/new/place $HOME/.mtdata\n```\n\n## Run tests\nTests are located in [tests/](tests) directory.
