Our captioning results on Arabic are slightly better than that of its supervised model.

An arbitrary task can be reformulated as a natural language prompt, and a language model can be asked to generate the completion, indirectly performing the task in a paradigm known as prompt-based learning.

We propose a two-stage approach for training a single NMT model to translate unseen languages both to and from English.

We find that images of words are not always invariant across languages, and that language pairs with shared culture, meaning having either a common language family, ethnicity or religion, have improved image translatability (i. e., have more similar images for similar words) compared to its converse, regardless of their geographic proximity.

Despite the progress made in recent years in addressing natural language understanding (NLU) challenges, the majority of this progress remains to be concentrated on resource-rich languages like English.

We also show that our model improves English-to-Persian machine translation in scenarios for which the training data is from colloquial Persian with 1. 4 absolute BLEU score difference in the development data, and 0. 8 in the test data.

Our delexicalized Persian-to-English parser transfer experiments show that a parsing model trained on our data is ~2% absolutely more accurate than that of Seraji et al. (2016) in terms of labeled attachment score.

We make use of supervised syntactic parsing as an auxiliary task in a multitask learning framework, and show that with different multitask learning settings, we consistently improve over the single-task baseline.

We describe a transfer method based on annotation projection to develop a dependency-based semantic role labeling system for languages for which no supervised linguistic information other than parallel data is available.

We describe a cross-lingual transfer method for dependency parsing that takes into account the problem of word order differences between source and target languages.

One solution is to use a reranker trained with global features, in which global features are derived from n-best lists.

Our paper addresses the problem of annotation projection for semantic role labeling for resource-poor languages using supervised annotations from a resource-rich language through parallel data.

We describe a simple but effective method for cross-lingual syntactic transfer of dependency parsers, in the scenario where a large amount of translation data is not available.

At its fastest, Yara can parse about 4000 sentences per second when in greedy mode (1 beam).
