Unveiling the Role of Pretraining in Direct Speech Translation
Belen Alastruey, Gerard I. Gállego, Marta R. Costa-jussà
Direct speech-to-text translation systems encounter an important drawback in data scarcity. A common solution consists on pretraining the encoder on automatic speech recognition, h…
Towards Red Teaming in Multimodal and Multilingual Translation
Christophe Ropers, David Dale, Prangthip Hansanti +9
Assessing performance in Natural Language Processing is becoming increasingly complex. One particular challenge is the potential for evaluation datasets to overlap with training da…
Added Toxicity Mitigation at Inference Time for Multimodal and Massively Multilingual Translation
Marta R. Costa-jussà, David Dale, Maha Elbayad +1
Added toxicity in the context of translation refers to the fact of producing a translation output with more toxicity than there exists in the input. In this paper, we present MinTo…
The Gender-GAP Pipeline: A Gender-Aware Polyglot Pipeline for Gender Characterisation in 55 Languages
Benjamin Muller, Belen Alastruey, Prangthip Hansanti +7
Gender biases in language generation systems are challenging to mitigate. One possible source for these biases is gender representation disparities in the training and evaluation d…
