Hello there,
I have downloaded an .argosmodel (which is a Ctranslate2 model) and I want to train it on new data. I haven’t found a way to do it yet, have I to convert into an openNMT model? How can I perform this conversion?

Hi,

Once a model is converted to CTranslate2, there is no way to continue the training. You can only continue the training with a training checkpoint.

@argosopentech Do you still have the training checkpoints associated with each released model?

I have some checkpoints saved but I’ve generally discarded them. I’ve found it’s often easier to start from scratch than manage saved checkpoints for OpenNMT-py.
