Machine Translation Evaluation Meets Community Question Answering
Francisco Guzmán, Lluís Màrquez, Preslav Nakov
We explore the applicability of machine translation evaluation (MTE) methods to a very different problem: answer ranking in community Question Answering. In particular, we adopt a…
Pairwise Neural Machine Translation Evaluation
Francisco Guzman, Shafiq Joty, Lluis Marquez +1
We present a novel framework for machine translation evaluation using neural networks in a pairwise setting, where the goal is to select the better translation from a pair of hypot…
DiscoTK: Using Discourse Structure for Machine Translation Evaluation
Shafiq Joty, Francisco Guzman, Lluis Marquez +1
We present novel automatic metrics for machine translation evaluation that use discourse structure and convolution kernels to compare the discourse tree of an automatic translation…
CCNet: Extracting High Quality Monolingual Datasets from Web Crawl Data
Guillaume Wenzek, Marie-Anne Lachaux, Alexis Conneau +4
Pre-training text representations have led to significant improvements in many areas of natural language processing. The quality of these models benefits greatly from the size of t…
CCAligned: A Massive Collection of Cross-Lingual Web-Document Pairs
Ahmed El-Kishky, Vishrav Chaudhary, Francisco Guzman +1
Cross-lingual document alignment aims to identify pairs of documents in two distinct languages that are of comparable content or translations of each other. In this paper, we explo…
Unsupervised Cross-lingual Representation Learning at Scale
Alexis Conneau, Kartikay Khandelwal, Naman Goyal +7
This paper shows that pretraining multilingual language models at scale leads to significant performance gains for a wide range of cross-lingual transfer tasks. We train a Transfor…
WikiMatrix: Mining 135M Parallel Sentences in 1620 Language Pairs from Wikipedia
Holger Schwenk, Vishrav Chaudhary, Shuo Sun +2
We present an approach based on multilingual sentence embeddings to automatically extract parallel sentences from the content of Wikipedia articles in 85 languages, including sever…
Low-Resource Corpus Filtering using Multilingual Sentence Embeddings
Vishrav Chaudhary, Yuqing Tang, Francisco Guzmán +2
In this paper, we describe our submission to the WMT19 low-resource parallel corpus filtering shared task. Our main approach is based on the LASER toolkit (Language-Agnostic SEnten…
The FLoRes Evaluation Datasets for Low-Resource Machine Translation: Nepali-English and Sinhala-English
Francisco Guzmán, Peng-Jen Chen, Myle Ott +5
For machine translation, a vast majority of language pairs in the world are considered low-resource because they have little parallel data available. Besides the technical challeng…
