SHARCS: Efficient Transformers Through Routing with Dynamic Width Sub-networks (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Several methods have been proposed to improve the inference efficiency of transformer-based models. |
| Approach: | They propose a new adaptive inference method that takes into account the hardness of input samples. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms or complements existing per-sample adaptive inference methods in terms of accuracy vs. FLOPs and can be applied to compressed and efficient transformer encoders to further improve their efficiency. |

| Challenge: | UNESCO has identified 60 varieties of Middle Eastern languages as underrepresented . a limited availability of language technology perpetuates a cycle of digital exclusion . |
| Approach: | They develop a parallel corpora for eight severely under-resourced varieties in the region . they evaluate machine translation capabilities through zero-shot approaches and fine-tuning experiments . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model aims to improve the processing of the eight under-resourced languages in the Middle East. |

| Challenge: | The Universal Morphology project provides broad-coverage instantiated morphological inflection tables for hundreds of diverse languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a language-independent feature schema for rich morphological annotation and a type-level resource of annotated data in diverse languages realizing that schema. |
| Outcome: | The proposed schema has added 66 new languages, including 24 endangered languages. |
