- get rid of BPE to simplify the scripts
- better hyperparameters for low-resource setting (lower batch sizes, smaller vocabularies ...)
- better data selection (data cleaning / filtering); use opus-filter?
- better balance between general data sets and backtranslations
- status: basically working, need better integration?!
- add backtranslations to training data
- can use monolingual data from tokenized wikipedia dumps: https://sites.google.com/site/rmyeid/projects/polyglot
- https://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html
- better in JSON: https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/cirrussearch/current/
- status: basically working
- do we want to publish fine-tuned data or rather the fina-tuning procedures? (using a docker container?)
