An Open Multilingual System for Scoring Readability of Wikipedia (2024.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on the readability of Wikipedia have focused on English only and there are currently no systems supporting automatic readability assessment of the 300+ languages in Wikipedia. |
| Approach: | They propose a multilingual model to assess Wikipedia's readability using a dataset spanning 14 languages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing models in a zero-shot scenario and is more accurate than previous benchmarks. |
Entity Insertion in Multilingual Linked Corpora: The Case of Wikipedia (2024.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a new task for entity insertion in information networks is needed to integrate entities into multilingual linked corpora . text spans in the source and target entities are not available to insert a link to the target entity . a benchmark dataset in 105 languages is used to study the problem of entity inserted in information systems . |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for entity insertion that integrates entities into linked corpora . they compile a benchmark dataset in 105 languages and test it in a zero-shot manner . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms baseline models on languages not seen during training with minimal performance drop. |
