We present the HPLT (High Performance Language Technologies) language resources, a new massive multilingual dataset including both monolingual and bilingual corpora extracted from CommonCrawl and previously unused web crawls from the Internet Archive. We describe our methods for data acquisition, management and processing of large corpora, which rely on open-source software tools and high-performance computing. Our monolingual collection focuses on low- to medium-resourced languages and covers 75 languages and a total of ~5.6 trillion word tokens de-duplicated on the document level. Our English-centric parallel corpus is derived from its monolingual counterpart and covers 18 language pairs and more than 96 million aligned sentence pairs with roughly 1.4 billion English tokens. The HPLT language resources are one of the largest open text corpora ever released, providing a great resource for language modeling and machine translation training. We publicly release the corpora, the software, and the tools used in this work.

Developing high quality machine translation systems is a labour intensive, challenging and confusing process for newcomers to the field. We present a pair of tools OpusCleaner and OpusTrainer that aim to simplify the process, reduce the amount of work and lower the entry barrier for newcomers. OpusCleaner is a data downloading, cleaning, and proprocessing toolkit. It is designed to allow researchers to quickly download, visualise and preprocess bilingual (or monolingual) data that comes from many different sources, each of them with different quality, issues, and unique filtering/preprocessing requirements. OpusTrainer is a data scheduling and data augmenting tool aimed at building large scale, robust machine translation systems and large language models. It features deterministic data mixing from many different sources, on-the-fly data augmentation and more. Using these tools, we showcase how we can use it to create high quality machine translation model robust to noisy user input; multilingual models and terminology aware models.
