VizSeq is a Python toolkit for visual analysis on text generation tasks like machine translation, summarization, image captioning, speech translation and video description. It takes multi-modal sources, text references as well as text predictions as inputs, and analyzes them visually in Jupyter Notebook or a built-in Web App (the former has Fairseq integration). VizSeq also provides a collection of multi-process scorers as a normal Python package.
