Olá, Bonjour, Salve! XFORMAL: A Benchmark for Multilingual Formality Style Transfer
Eleftheria Briakou, Di Lu, Ke Zhang, Joel Tetreault
Abstract
We take the first step towards multilingual style transfer by creating and releasing XFORMAL, a benchmark of multiple formal reformulations of informal text in Brazilian Portuguese, French, and Italian. Results on XFORMAL suggest that state-of-the-art style transfer approaches perform close to simple baselines, indicating that style transfer is even more challenging when moving multilingual.
