On the Limitations of Unsupervised Bilingual Dictionary Induction [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2018
Unsupervised machine translation - i.e., not assuming any cross-lingual supervision signal, whether a dictionary, translations, or comparable corpora - seems impossible, but nevertheless, Lample et al.

Lost in Evaluation: Misleading Benchmarks for Bilingual Dictionary Induction [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, 2019
The task of bilingual dictionary induction (BDI) is commonly used for intrinsic evaluation of cross-lingual word embeddings. The largest dataset for BDI was generated automatically, so its quality is dubious.

Generalizing Procrustes Analysis for Better Bilingual Dictionary Induction [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Computational Natural Language Learning, 2018
Most recent approaches to bilingual dictionary induction find a linear alignment between the word vector spaces of two languages. We show that projecting the two languages onto a third, latent space, rather than directly onto each other, while equivalent

Dictionary-based Phrase-level Prompting of Large Language Models for Machine Translation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv.org, 2023
Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable machine translation (MT) abilities via prompting, even though they were not explicitly trained for this task. However, even given the incredible quantities of data they are trained on, LLMs can struggle

A Generalized Constraint Approach to Bilingual Dictionary Induction for Low-Resource Language Families [PDF]

open access: yesACM Trans. Asian Low Resour. Lang. Inf. Process., 2017
The lack or absence of parallel and comparable corpora makes bilingual lexicon extraction a difficult task for low-resource languages. The pivot language and cognate recognition approaches have been proven useful for inducing bilingual lexicons for such ...

Chain-of-Dictionary Prompting Elicits Translation in Large Language Models [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, 2023
Large language models (LLMs) have shown surprisingly good performance in multilingual neural machine translation (MNMT) even if not being trained explicitly for translation. Yet, they still struggle with translating low-resource languages.
