Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | supervised machine learning requires substantial amount of annotated data. |
| Approach: | They propose to use machine translation to augment annotated corpora for fake news detection in Urdu . they train a fake news classifier on an annotation dataset originally in Uru . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method fails to improve fake news detection in Urdu at the current state of machine translation quality. |
Phrase-Based & Neural Unsupervised Machine Translation (D18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent advances in machine translation have reported near human-level performance on several languages, yet their effectiveness strongly relies on the availability of large amounts of parallel sentences. |
| Approach: | They propose two models that leverage a careful initialization of the parameters and denoising effect of language models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed models outperform the current methods on English-French and German-English benchmarks while being simpler and having fewer hyper-parameters. |
