Non-Linearity in Mapping Based Cross-Lingual Word Embeddings (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing work on cross-lingual word embeddings rely on linear mappings, but this assumption is not true for all language pairs. |
| Approach: | They propose a non-linear mapping approach which can find non-linesar relationships between languages by kernel Canonical Correlation Analysis. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach improves on five language pairs on supervised and self-learning scenarios. |
Mutual-Learning Improves End-to-End Speech Translation (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to end-to-end speech translation (E2E) models only allow one way knowledge transfer, which is limited by the performance of the teacher model. |
| Approach: | They propose a one-way knowledge transfer paradigm where the MT and ST models are collaboratively trained and considered as peers rather than teacher/student. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves the performance of end-to-end speech translation (ST) task by combining knowledge from two models with peer models. |
