Amazon AI Releases PyTorch-Based 'Sockeye 3': The Latest Version of the Sockeye Toolkit for Neural Machine Translation (NMT)

The performance of machine translation systems, which previously relied on phrase-based systems, has suddenly improved with the advent of neural network-based models. An open-source framework called Sockeye was released in 2018. This framework provides quick and dependable PyTorch implementation for neural machine translation (NMT) and other related tasks. It supports Amazon Translate and several other NMT applications. In 2020, Sockeye 2, its improved version, was also launched.
