Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent study shows that large language models perform well in low-resource languages . a vast majority of languages don't have comparable data as compared to English . |
| Approach: | They propose to use Translationese as synthetic data for pre-training language models for low-resource languages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method reduces performance of LMs trained on clean data in Indian languages . the proposed model performs better in English than in other languages, but is not comparable to English. |
