Target-Oriented Relation Alignment for Cross-Lingual Stance Detection (2023.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing work on cross-lingual stance detection has ignored the inconsistency in the occurrences and distributions of targets between languages, which consequently degrades the performance of stance detector in low-resource languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a fine-grained method which considers both target-level associations and language-level alignments to learn the in-language and cross-language associations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is compared with competing methods under variant settings and shows that it performs better in low-resource languages. |
