Extrapolating Multilingual Understanding Models as Multilingual Generators
Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2023, 2023 Multilingual understanding models (or encoder-based), pre-trained via masked language modeling, have achieved promising results on many language understanding tasks (e.g., mBERT). However, these non-autoregressive (NAR) models still struggle to generate high-quality texts compared with autoregressive (AR) models.

The influence of peripheral emotions on inhibitory control among children
Acta Psychologica, 2022 In this study, we investigated the cognitive-emotional interplay by measuring the effects of executive competition (Pessoa, 2013), i.e., how inhibitory control is influenced when emotional information is encountered. Sixty-three children (8 to 9 years of

Multilingual Sentence Transformer as A Multilingual Word Aligner
Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2022, 2022 Multilingual pretrained language models (mPLMs) have shown their effectiveness in multilingual word alignment induction. However, these methods usually start from mBERT or XLM-R. In this paper, we investigate whether multilingual sentence Transformer LaBSE is a strong multilingual word aligner.
