Papers with OpenLID
MaskLID: Code-Switching Language Identification through Iterative Masking (2024.acl-short)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Sentence-level LIDs are classifiers trained on monolingual texts to provide single labels, typically using a softmax layer to turn scores into probabilities. |
| Approach: | They propose a simple yet effective code-switching language identification method that uses the LID itself to mask features associated with L1 and L2 in the next round. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is based on two open-source LIDs based in the FastText architecture and does not require any external resources. |
GlotLID: Language Identification for Low-Resource Languages (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing web-mined datasets for low-resource languages have been useful for low resource NLP. |
| Approach: | They propose a model that identifies 1665 low-resource languages and a new model that is rigorously evaluated and reliable. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baselines when balancing F1 and false positive rate (FPR). |
