Papers with monolingual approaches
Learning and Evaluating Emotion Lexicons for 91 Languages (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Emotion lexicons describe the affective meaning of words but are limited in coverage for most languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a method for creating arbitrarily large emotion lexicons for any target language. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method exceeds human reliability for some languages and variables. |
How low is too low? A monolingual take on lemmatisation in Indian languages (2021.naacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Prior work on ML based lemmatization focused on high resource languages, where data sets (word forms) are readily available. |
| Approach: | They propose to use neural methods to relate inflected forms of words to their dictionary form to reduce the sparse data problem. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods can give competitive accuracy even in low resource setting. |
Multilingual Substitution-based Word Sense Induction (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Word Sense Induction is the task of finding senses of an ambiguous word . many approaches to WSI are language-specific and are not easily adaptable to new languages. |
| Approach: | They propose to use multilingual substitution-based WSI methods that generalize to any language supported by the underlying multilingual language model with minimal to no adaptation required. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods perform on par with monolingual approaches on popular English datasets while being language-specific. |
