Hire a Linguist!: Learning Endangered Languages in LLMs with In-Context Linguistic Descriptions (2024.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing LLMs rarely perform well in unseen, endangered languages . Existing models such as Llama and GPT-4 lack a rich corpus of training data . |
| Approach: | They propose a training-free approach to enable an LLM to process unseen languages that hardly occur in its pre-training. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach elevates translation capability from GPT-4’s 0 to 10.5 BLEU for 10 language directions. |
MTG: A Benchmark Suite for Multilingual Text Generation (2022.findings-naacl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Using MTG, we train and evaluate multilingual text generation models using human-annotated data. |
| Approach: | They propose a multilingual multiway text generation dataset with 400k human-annotated data that includes four generation tasks across five languages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset includes four generation tasks across five languages (English, German, French, Spanish and Chinese) it provides comprehensive evaluations with diverse generation scenarios. |
INSTRUCTSCORE: Towards Explainable Text Generation Evaluation with Automatic Feedback (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to evaluate the quality of language generation do not provide explicit explanation of their verdicts. |
| Approach: | They propose a fine-grained explainable evaluation metric for text generation that harnesses human instruction and implicit knowledge of GPT-4 to fine-tune it. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms all other unsupervised metrics on translation, captioning, data-to-text, and commonsense generation tasks. |
Generating Responses with a Specific Emotion in Dialog (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | EmoDS can express emotions in both ways, but it is difficult to scale to large datasets. |
| Approach: | They propose an emotional dialog system that can express emotions in both ways . they use strong emotional words and neutral words to increase the intensity of emotions . |
| Outcome: | The proposed system performs better than baselines in BLEU, diversity and quality of emotional expression. |
