contents This study explores the formality style transfer in Persian, particularly relevant in the face of the increasing prevalence of informal language on digital platforms, which poses challenges for existing Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools. The aim is to transform informal text into formal while retaining the original meaning, addressing both lexical and syntactic differences. We introduce a novel model, Fa-BERT2BERT, based on the Fa-BERT architecture, incorporating consistency learning and gradient-based dynamic weighting. This approach improves the model's understanding of syntactic variations, balancing loss components effectively during training. Our evaluation of Fa-BERT2BERT against existing methods employs new metrics designed to accurately measure syntactic and stylistic changes. Results demonstrate our model's superior performance over traditional techniques across various metrics, including BLEU, BERT score, Rouge-l, and proposed metrics underscoring its ability to adeptly navigate the complexities of Persian language style transfer. This study significantly contributes to Persian language processing by enhancing the accuracy and functionality of NLP models and thereby supports the development of more efficient and reliable NLP applications, capable of handling language style transformation effectively, thereby streamlining content moderation, enhancing data mining results, and facilitating cross-cultural communication.
