Copy First, Translate Later: Interpreting Translation Dynamics in Multilingual Pretraining
Felicia Körner, Maria Matveev, Florian Eichin +3
Large language models exhibit impressive cross-lingual capabilities. However, prior work analyzes this phenomenon through isolated factors and at sparse points during training, lim…
Persistent Personas? Role-Playing, Instruction Following, and Safety in Extended Interactions
Pedro Henrique Luz de Araujo, Michael A. Hedderich, Ali Modarressi +2
Persona-assigned large language models (LLMs) are used in domains such as education, healthcare, and sociodemographic simulation. Yet, they are typically evaluated only in short, s…
Linear Script Representations in Speech Foundation Models Enable Zero-Shot Transliteration
Ryan Soh-Eun Shim, Kwanghee Choi, Kalvin Chang +8
Multilingual speech foundation models such as Whisper are trained on web-scale data, where data for each language consists of a myriad of regional varieties. However, different reg…
AfriqueLLM: How Data Mixing and Model Architecture Impact Continued Pre-training for African Languages
Hao Yu, Tianyi Xu, Michael A. Hedderich +3
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly multilingual, yet open models continue to underperform relative to proprietary systems, with the gap most pronounced for African langu…
Large Reasoning Models Are (Not Yet) Multilingual Latent Reasoners
Yihong Liu, Raoyuan Zhao, Hinrich Schütze +1
Large reasoning models (LRMs) achieve strong performance on mathematical reasoning tasks, often attributed to their capability to generate explicit chain-of-thought (CoT) explanati…
