Error in Chinese Abstractive summarization preprocessing

Hello! I was trying to use Chinese Abstractive summarization model from Report for Chinese Abstractive summarization performance · Issue #547 · OpenNMT/OpenNMT-py · GitHub on colab with the next steps:

  • created config.yaml
  • ran onmt_build_vocab on my dataset
  • executed onmt_translate with pretrained chinese model on my dataset
    but encountered this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

    sys.exit(main())

TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str

Could you, please, tell me, which steps did I miss?

The checkpoint’s vocab is not compatible with the latest releases.
You can fix it with something like this:

Thank you for your reply! Checking out revision 585499a450 from provided link helped with loading model’s vocab.
