1. 21. Improving Multilingual Models for the Swedish Language : Exploring CrossLingual Transferability and Stereotypical Biases

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Styliani Katsarou; [2021]
   Keywords : Deep Learning; Natural Language Processing; Transformers; Multilingual Models; Cross-Lingual Transfer; Stereotypical Biases;

   Abstract : The best performing Transformer-based Language Models are monolingual and mainly focus on high-resource languages such as English. In an attempt to extend their usage to more languages, multilingual models have been introduced. READ MORE

3. 22. Machine Learning for Detecting Hate Speech in Low Resource Languages

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

   Author : David Rodriguez; Denitsa Saynova; [2020-07-08]
   Keywords : machine learning; natural language processing; BERT; cross-lingual zeroshot learning; data augmentation; hate speech; classification; Twitter;

   Abstract : This work examines the role of both cross-lingual zero-shot learning and data augmentation in detecting hate speech online for low resource set-ups. The proposed solutions for situations where the amount of labeled data is scarce are to use a language with more resources during training or to create synthetic data points. READ MORE

4. 23. Cross-lingual Word Embeddings Beyond Zero-shot Machine Translation

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

   Author : Chen Shifei; [2020]
   Keywords : word embeddings; cross-lingual word embeddings; machine translation; multilingual machine translation; neural machine translation; zero-shot; zero-shot machine translation;

   Abstract : Zero-shot translation is a transfer learning setup that refers to the ability of neural machine translation to generalize translation information into unseen language pairs. It provides an appealing solution to the lack of available materials for low-resource languages by transferring knowledge from high-resource languages. READ MORE

5. 24. Transfer Learning for Multilingual Offensive Language Detection with BERT

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

   Author : Camilla Casula; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The popularity of social media platforms has led to an increase in user-generated content being posted on the Internet. Users, masked behind what they perceive as anonymity, can express offensive and hateful thoughts on these platforms, creating a need to detect and filter abusive content. READ MORE

6. 25. Automatic Speech Recognition System for Somali in the interest of reducing Maternal Morbidity and Mortality.

   University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Mikrodataanalys

   Author : Joycelyn Laryea; Nipunika Jayasundara; [2020]
   Keywords : Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Rate MMMR ; Automatic Speech Recognition ASR ; DeepSpeech; Natural Language Processing NLP ; Word Error Rate WER ; Character Error Rate CER ;

   Abstract : Developing an Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system for the Somali language, though not novel, is not actively explored; hence there has been no success in a model for conversational speech. Neither are related works accessible as open-source. READ MORE
