How Far can 100 Samples Go? Unlocking Zero-Shot Translation with Tiny Multi-Parallel Data (2024.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a common solution to zero-shot translation is to add as many related translation directions as possible to the training corpus. |
| Approach: | They show that a small amount of multi-parallel data can achieve significant zero-shot improvements . they say that the resulting non-English performance is close to the complete translation upper bound . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves +21.7 ChrF++ non-English translation improvements on EC30 dataset . the resulting non- English performance exceeds M2M100 by an average of 5.9 ChrF+ . |
