A Representation Level Analysis of NMT Model Robustness to Grammatical Errors

ACL 2025finding

Understanding robustness is essential for building reliable NLP systems. Unfortunately, in the context of machine translation, previous work mainly focused on documenting robustness failures or improving robustness. In contrast, we study robustness from a model representation perspective by looking…

You Are What You Train: Effects of Data Composition on Training Context-aware Machine Translation Models

EMNLP 2025

Achieving human-level translations requires leveraging context to ensure coherence and handle complex phenomena like pronoun disambiguation. Sparsity of contextually rich examples in the standard training data has been hypothesized as the reason for the difficulty of context utilization. In this wor
