Maastricht University’s Large-Scale Multilingual Machine Translation System for WMT 2021

no code implementations WMT (EMNLP) 2021 Danni Liu, Jan Niehues

We present our development of the multilingual machine translation system for the large-scale multilingual machine translation task at WMT 2021.

Effective combination of pretrained models - KIT@IWSLT2022

no code implementations IWSLT (ACL) 2022 Ngoc-Quan Pham, Tuan Nam Nguyen, Thai-Binh Nguyen, Danni Liu, Carlos Mullov, Jan Niehues, Alexander Waibel

Pretrained models in acoustic and textual modalities can potentially improve speech translation for both Cascade and End-to-end approaches.

Language-Independent Representations Improve Zero-Shot Summarization

no code implementations8 Apr 2024 Vladimir Solovyev, Danni Liu, Jan Niehues

In this work, we focus on summarization and tackle the problem through the lens of language-independent representations.

How Transferable are Attribute Controllers on Pretrained Multilingual Translation Models?

1 code implementation15 Sep 2023 Danni Liu, Jan Niehues

This gap is out of sync with recent progress in pretrained massively multilingual translation models.

KIT's Multilingual Speech Translation System for IWSLT 2023

1 code implementation8 Jun 2023 Danni Liu, Thai Binh Nguyen, Sai Koneru, Enes Yavuz Ugan, Ngoc-Quan Pham, Tuan-Nam Nguyen, Tu Anh Dinh, Carlos Mullov, Alexander Waibel, Jan Niehues

In this paper, we describe our speech translation system for the multilingual track of IWSLT 2023, which evaluates translation quality on scientific conference talks.

Learning an Artificial Language for Knowledge-Sharing in Multilingual Translation

1 code implementation2 Nov 2022 Danni Liu, Jan Niehues

In this work, we discretize the encoder output latent space of multilingual models by assigning encoder states to entries in a codebook, which in effect represents source sentences in a new artificial language.

Tackling data scarcity in speech translation using zero-shot multilingual machine translation techniques

1 code implementation26 Jan 2022 Tu Anh Dinh, Danni Liu, Jan Niehues

We investigate whether these ideas can be applied to speech translation, by building ST models trained on speech transcription and text translation data.

Cost-Effective Training in Low-Resource Neural Machine Translation

no code implementations14 Jan 2022 Sai Koneru, Danni Liu, Jan Niehues

Although AL is shown to be helpful with large budgets, it is not enough to build high-quality translation systems in these low-resource conditions.

Direct Simultaneous Speech-to-Speech Translation with Variational Monotonic Multihead Attention

no code implementations15 Oct 2021 Xutai Ma, Hongyu Gong, Danni Liu, Ann Lee, Yun Tang, Peng-Jen Chen, Wei-Ning Hsu, Phillip Koehn, Juan Pino

We present a direct simultaneous speech-to-speech translation (Simul-S2ST) model, Furthermore, the generation of translation is independent from intermediate text representations.

Improving Zero-Shot Translation by Disentangling Positional Information

1 code implementation ACL 2021 Danni Liu, Jan Niehues, James Cross, Francisco Guzmán, Xian Li

The difficulty of generalizing to new translation directions suggests the model representations are highly specific to those language pairs seen in training.

Adapting End-to-End Speech Recognition for Readable Subtitles

1 code implementation WS 2020 Danni Liu, Jan Niehues, Gerasimos Spanakis

The experiments show that with limited data far less than needed for training a model from scratch, we can adapt a Transformer-based ASR model to incorporate both transcription and compression capabilities.
