Source-Free MT Evaluation Is Not MT Evaluation

Baban Gain, Ramakrishna Appicharla, Asif Ekbal

Reference-based metrics remain the standard choice in machine translation evaluation, partly because quality estimation methods often correlate less well with human judgments. As a…

Which Tokens Need Context? A Reference-Based Analysis of Translation Responsibility Using Fertility and Entropy

Ramakrishna Appicharla, Baban Gain, Santanu Pal +1

When humans translate, not every word depends equally on the surrounding context. Some tokens, particularly function words like pronouns and auxiliaries, rely heavily on preceding…

Mind the Pause: Disfluency-Aware Objective Tuning for Multilingual Speech Correction with LLMs

Deepak Kumar, Baban Gain, Asif Ekbal

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) transcripts often contain disfluencies, such as fillers, repetitions, and false starts, which reduce readability and hinder downstream applicatio…

One Model to Translate Them All? A Journey to Mount Doom for Multilingual Model Merging

Baban Gain, Trilok Nath Singh, Asif Ekbal

Weight-space model merging combines independently fine-tuned checkpoints without access to the original training data. While merging has shown promise in multitask settings, its be…

Beyond the Sentence: A Survey on Context-Aware Machine Translation with Large Language Models

Ramakrishna Appicharla, Baban Gain, Santanu Pal +1

Despite the popularity of the large language models (LLMs), their application to machine translation is relatively underexplored, especially in context-aware settings. This work pr…

Bridging the Linguistic Divide: A Survey on Leveraging Large Language Models for Machine Translation

Baban Gain, Dibyanayan Bandyopadhyay, Asif Ekbal +1

Large Language Models (LLMs) are rapidly reshaping machine translation (MT), particularly by introducing instruction-following, in-context learning, and preference-based alignment…

Balancing Global Quality and Pronoun-Specific Feedback for Context-Aware Machine Translation

Harshit Dhankhar, Baban Gain, Asif Ekbal +1

Context-aware machine translation can expose the evidence needed for pronoun choice, but standard fine-tuning does not explicitly prioritize these sparse discourse-sensitive decisi…

A Case Study on Context-Aware Neural Machine Translation with Multi-Task Learning

Ramakrishna Appicharla, Baban Gain, Santanu Pal +2

In document-level neural machine translation (DocNMT), multi-encoder approaches are common in encoding context and source sentences. Recent studies \cite{li-etal-2020-multi-encoder…

A Case Study on Context Encoding in Multi-Encoder based Document-Level Neural Machine Translation

Ramakrishna Appicharla, Baban Gain, Santanu Pal +1

Recent studies have shown that the multi-encoder models are agnostic to the choice of context, and the context encoder generates noise which helps improve the models in terms of BL…
