Onmt_translate issues: all together missing predictions & doesn't list source sentences

Hi all - any help is much appreciated!

I’m working to build a multilingal translation model. Had no issues during training and did recieve validation set scoring throughout so I’m not sure why I’m now having these issues.

ISSUES
The source sentence is always “None”. I saw another thread also missing the source sentences, but nothing there fixed my issue. I also have an additional issue though as I do not recieve the same number of predictions as source sentences I input. If I input 1000 sentences, I recieve 990-995 predictions (changes every few times I run). I’ve tried batching and reducing number of sentence in the source file, but the only time I receive a matching number of predictions is when I input 1 sentence at a time.

My test data is bpe encoded the same way as my training data. I’ve also swapped my test file for my training file, thinking maybe it was an issue without OOV tokens or formatting somewhere, but I continue to have the same issues.

COMMAND
onmt_translate -model model.pt -src src_data -output output_data -gpu 0 -batch_size 8 -batch_type sents -verbose

I’ve also tried with a higher batch size, batch_type tokens, and with both batch_size and _type removed from the command. No change in issues.

Hi, thanks for this. Nothing mentioned on my issue and I’m already following everything else as far as training/commands goes, but I guess I will try converting my model to a CTranslate2 model and hopefully that solves it.

Hi @mbruton0426 ,

Is your source BPEed? It doesn’t seem so in your file extension

Yes all data is BPEd

Hi @mbruton0426 ,
I met similar problem. Do you have some solutions of the issue?
Thanks.
