Language Fusion for Parameter-Efficient Cross-lingual Transfer

ACL 2025long

Limited availability of multilingual text corpora for training language models often leads to poor performance on downstream tasks due to undertrained representation spaces for languages other than English. This ‘under-representation’ has motivated recent cross-lingual transfer methods to leverage t…

Efficient Information Extraction in Few-Shot Relation Classification through Contrastive Representation Learning

NAACL 2024short

Differentiating relationships between entity pairs with limited labeled instances poses a significant challenge in few-shot relation classification. Representations of textual data extract rich information spanning the domain, entities, and relations. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to…

Investigating Bias in Multilingual Language Models: Cross-Lingual Transfer of Debiasing Techniques

EMNLP 2023short main

This paper investigates the transferability of debiasing techniques across different languages within multilingual models. We examine the applicability of these techniques in English, French, German, and Dutch. Using multilingual BERT (mBERT), we demonstrate that cross-lingual transfer of debiasing…
