+## Model description
+
+This model was trained from scratch using the [Fairseq toolkit](https://fairseq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) on a combination of Catalan-Chinese datasets totalling 6.833.114 sentence pairs. 174.507 sentence pairs were parallel data collected from the web while the remaining 6.658.607 sentence pairs were parallel synthetic data created using the ES-CA translator of [PlanTL](https://huggingface.co/PlanTL-GOB-ES/mt-plantl-es-ca). The model was evaluated on the Flores evaluation datasets. 
+
+## Intended uses and limitations
+
+You can use this model for machine translation from Catalan to simplified Chinese.
+
+## How to use
+
+### Usage
+Required libraries:
+
+```bash
+pip install ctranslate2 pyonmttok
+```
+
+Translate a sentence using python
+```python
+import ctranslate2
+import pyonmttok
+from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
+model_dir = snapshot_download(repo_id="projecte-aina/mt-aina-ca-zh", revision="main")
+tokenizer=pyonmttok.Tokenizer(mode="none", sp_model_path = model_dir + "/spm.model")
+tokenized=tokenizer.tokenize("Ongi etorri Aina proiektura.")
+translator = ctranslate2.Translator(model_dir)
+translated = translator.translate_batch([tokenized[0]])
+print(tokenizer.detokenize(translated[0][0]['tokens']))
+```
+
+## Training
+
+### Training data
+
+The Catalan-Chinese data collected from the web was a combination of the following datasets:
+
+| Dataset       	| Sentences before cleaning	|
+|-------------------|----------------|
+| WikiMatrix  	| 90.643	|
+| XLENT | 535.803 |
+| GNOME	| 78|
+| QED           	| 3.677    	|
+| TED2020 v1    	| 56.269 	|
+| OpenSubtitles	| 139.300 |
+| **Total**     	| **882.039** |
+
+The 6.658.607 sentence pairs of synthetic parallel data were created from the following Spanish-Chinese datasets:
+
+| Dataset       	| Sentences before cleaning	|
+|-------------------|----------------|
+| UNPC 	|17.599.223|
+| CCMatrix | 24.051.233 |
+| MultiParacrawl| 3410087|
+| **Total**     	| **45.060.543** |
+
+
+### Training procedure
+
+### Data preparation
+
+ The Chinese side of all datasets are passed through the [fastlangid](https://github.com/currentslab/fastlangid) language detector and any sentences which are not identified as simplified Chinese are discarded. The datasets are then also deduplicated and filtered to remove any sentence pairs with a cosine similarity of less than 0.75. This is done using sentence embeddings calculated using [LaBSE](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/LaBSE). The filtered datasets are then concatenated to form a final corpus of 6.833.114. The Chinese side of the dataset is tokenized using [Jieba](https://github.com/fxsjy/jieba) and before training the punctuation is normalized using a modified version of the join-single-file.py script from [SoftCatalà](https://github.com/Softcatala/nmt-models/blob/master/data-processing-tools/join-single-file.py).
+
+
+#### Tokenization
+
+ All data is tokenized using sentencepiece, with a 50 thousand token sentencepiece model  learned from the combination of all filtered training data. This model is included.  
+
+#### Hyperparameters
+
+The model is based on the Transformer-XLarge proposed by [Subramanian et al.](https://aclanthology.org/2021.wmt-1.18.pdf)
+The following hyperparameters were set on the Fairseq toolkit:
+
+| Hyperparameter                 	| Value                        	|

+
+The model was trained for 17.000 updates 
+Weights were saved every 1000 updates and reported results are the average of the last 4 checkpoints.
+
+## Evaluation
