Deep Subjecthood: Higher-Order Grammatical Features in Multilingual BERT (2021.eacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent study has shown that multilingual BERT encodes sentences in structurally meaningful ways. |
| Approach: | They analyze how morphosyntactic alignment manifests across embedding spaces of languages . they train classifiers to recover subjecthood of mBERT embedds in transitive sentences . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model encodes a high-order grammatical feature of morphosyntactic alignment across languages . the results show that the classifier distributions reflect the morphological alignment of their training languages based on the results . |
