Are We Evaluating Knowledge or Phrasing? Mitigating MCQA Sensitivity with ParaEval
João Maria Janeiro, Mathurin Videau, Andrea Caciolai +3
Multiple-choice (MCQA) benchmarks are the standard for evaluating pretrained large language models, but their reliance on log-likelihood scoring makes them unreliable. Specifically…
Omnilingual SONAR: Cross-Lingual and Cross-Modal Sentence Embeddings Bridging Massively Multilingual Text and Speech
Omnilingual SONAR Team, João Maria Janeiro, Pere-Lluís Huguet Cabot +17
Cross-lingual sentence encoders typically cover only a few hundred languages and often trade downstream quality for stronger alignment, limiting their adoption. We introduce OmniSO…
Interference Matrix: Quantifying Cross-Lingual Interference in Transformer Encoders
Belen Alastruey, João Maria Janeiro, Alexandre Allauzen +3
In this paper, we present a comprehensive study of language interference in encoder-only Transformer models across 83 languages. We construct an interference matrix by training and…
Large Concept Models: Language Modeling in a Sentence Representation Space
LCM team, Loïc Barrault, Paul-Ambroise Duquenne +18
LLMs have revolutionized the field of artificial intelligence and have emerged as the de-facto tool for many tasks. The current established technology of LLMs is to process input a…
MEXMA: Token-level objectives improve sentence representations
João Maria Janeiro, Benjamin Piwowarski, Patrick Gallinari +1
Current pre-trained cross-lingual sentence encoders approaches use sentence-level objectives only. This can lead to loss of information, especially for tokens, which then degrades…
FuxiTranyu: A Multilingual Large Language Model Trained with Balanced Data
Haoran Sun, Renren Jin, Shaoyang Xu +10
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated prowess in a wide range of tasks. However, many LLMs exhibit significant performance discrepancies between high- and low-resource lan…
