Papers with Viable cross-lingual transfer
JW300: A Wide-Coverage Parallel Corpus for Low-Resource Languages (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a shortage of parallel data in low-resource languages creates a bottleneck for cross-lingual transfer . a massive collection of parallel texts for over 300 diverse languages is our main contribution . |
| Approach: | They propose a parallel corpus of over 300 languages with 100 thousand parallel sentences per language pair on average. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset can be used to build cross-lingual word embeddings and multi-source part-of-speech projections. |
