Multi30k Data Repository
Getting ready
Along with the data files, we also provide:
- subword-nmt as a GIT submodule
- A recent (December 2017) snapshot of Moses preprocessing scripts
under scripts/ in order to minimize processing differences across the users.
In order to fetch everything correctly, you need to clone the repository with --recursive flag:
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/multi30k/dataset.git multi30k-dataset
Visual features
Pre-extracted visual features can be downloaded from Google Drive and the raw images can be requested here for Flickr30k. test_2017_flickr and test_2018_flickr images can be downloaded from here.
Task 1
- Raw files under data/task1/raw
- Tokenized files under data/task1/tok. These files were produced with the preprocessing script scripts/task1-tokenize.sh.
Multi30K 2018 test set
You can evaluate your model on the 2018 test sets using the ongoing Codalab competition.
