Self-Augmented In-Context Learning for Unsupervised Word Translation

no code implementations15 Feb 2024 Yaoyiran Li, Anna Korhonen, Ivan Vulić

Recent work has shown that, while large language models (LLMs) demonstrate strong word translation or bilingual lexicon induction (BLI) capabilities in few-shot setups, they still cannot match the performance of 'traditional' mapping-based approaches in the unsupervised scenario where no seed translation pairs are available, especially for lower-resource languages.

On Bilingual Lexicon Induction with Large Language Models

1 code implementation21 Oct 2023 Yaoyiran Li, Anna Korhonen, Ivan Vulić

Bilingual Lexicon Induction (BLI) is a core task in multilingual NLP that still, to a large extent, relies on calculating cross-lingual word representations.

Translation-Enhanced Multilingual Text-to-Image Generation

no code implementations30 May 2023 Yaoyiran Li, Ching-Yun Chang, Stephen Rawls, Ivan Vulić, Anna Korhonen

Research on text-to-image generation (TTI) still predominantly focuses on the English language due to the lack of annotated image-caption data in other languages; in the long run, this might widen inequitable access to TTI technology.

Improving Bilingual Lexicon Induction with Cross-Encoder Reranking

1 code implementation30 Oct 2022 Yaoyiran Li, Fangyu Liu, Ivan Vulić, Anna Korhonen

This crucial step is done via 1) creating a word similarity dataset, comprising positive word pairs (i. e., true translations) and hard negative pairs induced from the original CLWE space, and then 2) fine-tuning an mPLM (e. g., mBERT or XLM-R) in a cross-encoder manner to predict the similarity scores.

Improving Word Translation via Two-Stage Contrastive Learning

1 code implementation ACL 2022 Yaoyiran Li, Fangyu Liu, Nigel Collier, Anna Korhonen, Ivan Vulić

At Stage C1, we propose to refine standard cross-lingual linear maps between static word embeddings (WEs) via a contrastive learning objective; we also show how to integrate it into the self-learning procedure for even more refined cross-lingual maps.

Emergent Communication Pretraining for Few-Shot Machine Translation

1 code implementation COLING 2020 Yaoyiran Li, Edoardo M. Ponti, Ivan Vulić, Anna Korhonen

On the other hand, this also provides an extrinsic evaluation protocol to probe the properties of emergent languages ex vitro.
