Papers with cross-lingual approaches
Neural Factor Graph Models for Cross-lingual Morphological Tagging (P18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to morphological tagging are limited by the assumption that tag sets overlap . a limited amount of data is available for most languages to learn these morphology taggers. |
| Approach: | They propose a method for cross-lingual morphological tagging that relaxes this assumption . they use factorial conditional random fields with neural network potentials to smooth over superficial differences in the surface forms . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can smooth over superficial differences in the surface forms and generate unseen or rare tag sets. |
Monolingual and Cross-Lingual Acceptability Judgments with the Italian CoLA corpus (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Acceptability judgments are the most significant source of data in linguistics . however, there are still many open issues regarding methods for collecting and evaluating them. |
| Approach: | They propose to create a corpus of sentences with acceptability judgments using the same approach and the same steps as the English corpus. |
| Outcome: | The proposed corpus contains almost 10,000 sentences with acceptability judgments. |
Analysing cross-lingual transfer in lemmatisation for Indian languages (2020.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Inference-based scripts such as Abjad are difficult for cross-lingual models to learn in extremely low resource scenarios. |
| Approach: | They evaluate cross-lingual approaches for low resource languages and compare their performance against other models using different linguistic factors. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model on six low resource languages from two different families is compared with monolingual models on morphologically rich Indian languages. |
Cross-lingual Emotion Detection (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Emotion detection is a useful tool for understanding human behavior, but constructing annotated datasets to train models can be expensive. |
| Approach: | They propose to use English as the source language with Arabic and Spanish as target languages to train models for emotion detection in a target language. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approaches surpass state-of-the-art models in Arabic and Spanish by 4% and 5% respectively. |
