Papers with topic classification tasks
Multi-Source Text Classification for Multilingual Sentence Encoder with Machine Translation (2024.naacl-srw)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Pre-trained multilingual sentence encoders suffer from performance degradation for non-English languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a method of machine translating a source sentence into English and then inputting it together with the source sentence in a multi-source manner. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves the performance of pre-trained multilingual sentence encoders in Japanese on sentiment analysis and topic classification tasks. |
LexC-Gen: Generating Data for Extremely Low-Resource Languages with Large Language Models and Bilingual Lexicons (2024.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing word-to-word translations from labeled task data in low-resource languages have limited lexical overlap with task data. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that generates low-resource-language classification task data at scale using bilingual lexicons. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves on 17 low-resource languages with bilingual lexicons compared with existing models on sentiment analysis and topic classification tasks. |
