When training a Twi-to-English model, I ran into a couple of challenges. Though these errors may have been due to something I overlooked, I thought it best to post here in case these small updates could help future users:
In the third from last code block, the current code is:
!cp -r joeynmt/models/${tgt}${src}_reverse_transformer/* "$gdrive_path/models/${src}${tgt}_reverse_transformer/"
the tgt and src variables are in different orders
the directory has not been made yet, so there is an error when trying to copy something into it
When trying to test my model in the last code block, I got an error because a checkpoint could not be found. I fixed this by using the checkpoint flag:
original line: ! cd joeynmt; python3 -m joeynmt test "$gdrive_path/models/${tgt}${src}_reverse_transformer/config.yaml"
suggested update: ! cd joeynmt; python3 -m joeynmt test "$gdrive_path/models/${tgt}${src}_reverse_transformer/config.yaml" --ckpt "$gdrive_path/models/${tgt}${src}_reverse_transformer/$filename.ckpt"
