is it possible to use this model for paraphrasing general sentences?

i want to paraphrase some english sentences so, i wondered if you can give a hint or script which takes a sentence as an input and paraphrase it using the mode.

Oh I think this model currently may not fit for your general paraphrasing task because it's trained on MSCOCO and Quora, all quite domain-specific. The quickest way I think would be back translation: use google translate api to translate your sentence to any other language, then translate them back. You will get paraphrase this way :)

i really appreciate contacting me. i'm trying to paraphrase some english sentences and i want to do this locally i mean using the google translator api is great but doesn't work for me now. by the way as you have a knowledge in this era, do you have any other suggestions or approaches in mind for paraphrasing?

Hi kasra-pak,

Sorry for the late reply, you could use a pre-trained translation model locally like the ones in OpenNMT: https://opennmt.net/Models-py/
