Do not neglect related languages: The case of low-resource Occitan cross-lingual word embeddings

no code implementations • EMNLP (MRL) 2021 • Lisa Woller, Viktor Hangya, Alexander Fraser

In contrast to previous approaches which leverage independently pre-trained embeddings of languages, we (i) train CLWEs for the low-resource and a related language jointly and (ii) map them to the target language to build the final multilingual space.
