Papers with high-quality lectures translation
Coursera Corpus Mining and Multistage Fine-Tuning for Improving Lectures Translation (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Lectures translation is a case of spoken language translation and there is nil available corpus for this purpose. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for mining a parallel corpus from publicly available lectures at Coursera . they use machine translation and cosine similarity over continuous-space sentence representations to determine sentence alignments . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves translation performance when used with out-of-domain parallel corpora . it also addresses noise in the mined data, and creates high-quality evaluation splits . |
