Universal Neural Machine Translation for Extremely Low Resource Languages (N18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a novel multilingual approach to machine translation is proposed for low resource languages . the proposed approach can achieve 23 BLEU on Romanian-English WMT2016 using a tiny parallel corpus of 6k sentences compared to the 18 BLUE of strong baseline system . |
| Approach: | They propose a transfer-learning approach to share lexical and sentence representations across multiple source languages into one target language. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach achieves 23 BLEU on Romanian-English WMT2016 using a tiny parallel corpus of 6k sentences compared to the 18 BLUE of strong baseline system which uses multi-lingual training and back-translation. |
Fine-Grained Temporal Relation Extraction (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for temporal relations and event durations are insufficient for determining the fine-grained temporal structure of complex events. |
| Approach: | They propose a semantic framework for temporal relations and event durations that maps pairs of events to real-valued scales. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework can predict fine-grained temporal relations and event durations . it can be applied to the entire English Web Treebank dataset . |
