A Unified Encoding of Structures in Transition Systems
Transition systems usually contain various dynamic structures (e. g., stacks, buffers).
Word Reordering for Zero-shot Cross-lingual Structured Prediction
Adapting word order from one language to another is a key problem in cross-lingual structured prediction.
Adaptive Policy with Wait-$k$ Model for Simultaneous Translation
Simultaneous machine translation (SiMT) requires a robust read/write policy in conjunction with a high-quality translation model.
BLSP: Bootstrapping Language-Speech Pre-training via Behavior Alignment of Continuation Writing
One is a cascaded approach where outputs (tokens or states) of a separately trained speech recognition system are used as inputs for LLMs, which limits their potential in modeling alignment between speech and text.
Improving Text Matching in E-Commerce Search with A Rationalizable, Intervenable and Fast Entity-Based Relevance Model
We also show that pretraining the QE module with auto-generated QE data from user logs can further improve the overall performance.
Translate the Beauty in Songs: Jointly Learning to Align Melody and Translate Lyrics
Song translation requires both translation of lyrics and alignment of music notes so that the resulting verse can be sung to the accompanying melody, which is a challenging problem that has attracted some interests in different aspects of the translation process.
Adapting Offline Speech Translation Models for Streaming with Future-Aware Distillation and Inference
A popular approach to streaming speech translation is to employ a single offline model with a wait-k policy to support different latency requirements, which is simpler than training multiple online models with different latency constraints.
Entity-to-Text based Data Augmentation for various Named Entity Recognition Tasks
Data augmentation techniques have been used to alleviate the problem of scarce labeled data in various NER tasks (flat, nested, and discontinuous NER tasks).
Discrete Cross-Modal Alignment Enables Zero-Shot Speech Translation
Existing zero-shot methods fail to align the two modalities of speech and text into a shared semantic space, resulting in much worse performance compared to the supervised ST methods.

ITA: Image-Text Alignments for Multi-Modal Named Entity Recognition
As text representations take the most important role in MNER, in this paper, we propose {\bf I}mage-{\bf t}ext {\bf A}lignments (ITA) to align image features into the textual space, so that the attention mechanism in transformer-based pretrained textual embeddings can be better utilized.

Multi-View Cross-Lingual Structured Prediction with Minimum Supervision
In structured prediction problems, cross-lingual transfer learning is an efficient way to train quality models for low-resource languages, and further improvement can be obtained by learning from multiple source languages.
Risk Minimization for Zero-shot Sequence Labeling
In this paper, we propose a novel unified framework for zero-shot sequence labeling with minimum risk training and design a new decomposable risk function that models the relations between the predicted labels from the source models and the true labels.
Bridging the Domain Gap: Improve Informal Language Translation via Counterfactual Domain Adaptation
Despite the near-human performances already achieved on formal texts such as news articles, neural machine transla- tion still has difficulty in dealing with ”user-generated” texts that have diverse linguistic phenomena but lack large-scale high-quality parallel corpora.
Improving Named Entity Recognition by External Context Retrieving and Cooperative Learning
We find empirically that the contextual representations computed on the retrieval-based input view, constructed through the concatenation of a sentence and its external contexts, can achieve significantly improved performance compared to the original input view based only on the sentence.

Weakly Supervised Attentional Model for Low Resource Ad-hoc Cross-lingual Information Retrieval
We propose a weakly supervised neural model for Ad-hoc Cross-lingual Information Retrieval (CLIR) from low-resource languages.
Automatic Speech Recognition and Topic Identification for Almost-Zero-Resource Languages
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems often need to be developed for extremely low-resource languages to serve end-uses such as audio content categorization and search.

Transfer Learning based Dynamic Multiobjective Optimization Algorithms
This approach takes the transfer learning method as a tool to help reuse the past experience for speeding up the evolutionary process, and at the same time, any population based multiobjective algorithms can benefit from this integration without any extensive modifications.
Statistical Machine Translation Features with Multitask Tensor Networks
We present a three-pronged approach to improving Statistical Machine Translation (SMT), building on recent success in the application of neural networks to SMT.
