Efficient Domain Adaptation for Non-Autoregressive Machine Translation (2024.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing non-parametric approaches like nearest neighbor machine translation have made small Autoregressive translation models less efficient . despite their impressive generalization and task performance, LLMs suffer from prohibitive inference cost when confronted with specific domains. |
| Approach: | They propose a domain adaptation approach that tailors a k-nearest-neighbor algorithm for NAT models that incorporates the parallel nature of NAT. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach achieves significant improvements over the Base-NAT model and exhibits enhanced efficiency. |
