EN-DE parent ➜ EN-NL fine-tuned on creative corpus

Authors: Niek Holter Thesis: “Transferring Creativity”

Summary

This model starts from Helsinki-NLP’s MarianMT opus-mt-en-de and is fine-tuned on a 10k-sentence creative English–Dutch corpus (fiction + subtitles). It is one of four systems trained for my bachelor’s thesis to study how transfer-learning settings affect MT creativity.

Intended use

• —Research on creative MT and low-resource transfer learning

Training details

• —Hardware  : NVIDIA GTX 1070 (CUDA 12.1)
• —Epochs : Early-stopped ≤ 200 (patience 5)
• —LR / batch : 2 e-5 / 16
• —Script : `finetuning.py`
• —Env : `environment.yml`

Data

• —Creative corpus (7.6 k fiction sentences from DPC + 2.4 k OpenSubtitles).
• —Sentence-level 1:1 alignments; deduplicated to avoid leakage. See https://github.com/muniekstache/Transfer-Creativity.git for full pipeline.
