Preprocess

mkdir data
wget http://www.statmt.org/europarl/v7/europarl.tgz
tar zxvf europarl.tgz
python preprocess_text.py

Train

python main.py 

Notes

• Please carefully set the $\lambda$ of mutual information part since I have tested the model in different platform, i.e., Tensorflow and Pytorch, same $\lambda$ shows different performance.

Evaluation

python performance.py

Notes

• If you want to compute the sentence similarity, please download the bert model.
