SMaLL-100: Introducing Shallow Multilingual Machine Translation Model for Low-Resource Languages

3 code implementations20 Oct 2022 Alireza Mohammadshahi, Vassilina Nikoulina, Alexandre Berard, Caroline Brun, James Henderson, Laurent Besacier

In recent years, multilingual machine translation models have achieved promising performance on low-resource language pairs by sharing information between similar languages, thus enabling zero-shot translation.

What Do Compressed Multilingual Machine Translation Models Forget?

1 code implementation22 May 2022 Alireza Mohammadshahi, Vassilina Nikoulina, Alexandre Berard, Caroline Brun, James Henderson, Laurent Besacier

In this work, we assess the impact of compression methods on Multilingual Neural Machine Translation models (MNMT) for various language groups, gender, and semantic biases by extensive analysis of compressed models on different machine translation benchmarks, i. e. FLORES-101, MT-Gender, and DiBiMT.

Continual Learning in Multilingual NMT via Language-Specific Embeddings

no code implementations WMT (EMNLP) 2021 Alexandre Berard

This paper proposes a technique for adding a new source or target language to an existing multilingual NMT model without re-training it on the initial set of languages.

Unsupervised Word Segmentation from Speech with Attention

no code implementations18 Jun 2018 Pierre Godard, Marcely Zanon-Boito, Lucas Ondel, Alexandre Berard, François Yvon, Aline Villavicencio, Laurent Besacier

We present a first attempt to perform attentional word segmentation directly from the speech signal, with the final goal to automatically identify lexical units in a low-resource, unwritten language (UL).

Listen and Translate: A Proof of Concept for End-to-End Speech-to-Text Translation

1 code implementation6 Dec 2016 Alexandre Berard, Olivier Pietquin, Christophe Servan, Laurent Besacier

This paper proposes a first attempt to build an end-to-end speech-to-text translation system, which does not use source language transcription during learning or decoding.
