EuroBERT: Scaling Multilingual Encoders for European Languages
Nicolas Boizard, Hippolyte Gisserot-Boukhlef, Duarte M. Alves +16
General-purpose multilingual vector representations, used in retrieval, regression and classification, are traditionally obtained from bidirectional encoder models. Despite their w…
EuroLLM-22B: Technical Report
Miguel Moura Ramos, Duarte M. Alves, Hippolyte Gisserot-Boukhlef +15
This report presents EuroLLM-22B, a large language model trained from scratch to support the needs of European citizens by covering all 24 official European Union languages and 11…
Fine-Grained Reward Optimization for Machine Translation using Error Severity Mappings
Miguel Moura Ramos, Tomás Almeida, Daniel Vareta +4
Reinforcement learning (RL) has been proven to be an effective and robust method for training neural machine translation systems, especially when paired with powerful reward models…
TowerVision: Understanding and Improving Multilinguality in Vision-Language Models
André G. Viveiros, Patrick Fernandes, Saul Santos +7
Despite significant advances in vision-language models (VLMs), most existing work follows an English-centric design process, limiting their effectiveness in multilingual settings.…
M-Prometheus: A Suite of Open Multilingual LLM Judges
José Pombal, Dongkeun Yoon, Patrick Fernandes +5
The use of language models for automatically evaluating long-form text (LLM-as-a-judge) is becoming increasingly common, yet most LLM judges are optimized exclusively for English,…
Multilingual Contextualization of Large Language Models for Document-Level Machine Translation
Miguel Moura Ramos, Patrick Fernandes, Sweta Agrawal +1
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong performance in sentence-level machine translation, but scaling to document-level translation remains challenging, particularly…
