A Multitask Learning Approach for Diacritic Restoration (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Diacritics are used to specify pronunciations and meanings in many languages like Arabic. |
| Approach: | They propose to use multi-task learning to optimize diacritic restoration with related NLP problems . they use Arabic as a case study since it has sufficient data resources for tasks . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baseline models and is comparable to the state-of-the-art models. |
Efficient Convolutional Neural Networks for Diacritic Restoration (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Diacritic restoration is a computational task that requires a computer to understand written texts. |
| Approach: | They propose to use Temporal Convolutional Neural Networks (TCN) to restore missing diacritics for each character in written text. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves on TCN in Arabic, Yoruba, and Vietnamese. |
