Catherine Arnett, Benjamin K. Bergen
Language models perform differently across languages. It has been previously suggested that morphological typology may explain some of this variability (Cotterell et al., 2018). We…
Goldfish: Monolingual Language Models for 350 Languages
Tyler A. Chang, Catherine Arnett, Zhuowen Tu +1
For many low-resource languages, the only available language models are large multilingual models trained on many languages simultaneously. Despite state-of-the-art performance on…
Revenge of the Fallen? Recurrent Models Match Transformers at Predicting Human Language Comprehension Metrics
James A. Michaelov, Catherine Arnett, Benjamin K. Bergen
Transformers have generally supplanted recurrent neural networks as the dominant architecture for both natural language processing tasks and for modelling the effect of predictabil…
A Bit of a Problem: Measurement Disparities in Dataset Sizes Across Languages
Catherine Arnett, Tyler A. Chang, Benjamin K. Bergen
How should text dataset sizes be compared across languages? Even for content-matched (parallel) corpora, UTF-8 encoded text can require a dramatically different number of bytes for…
