Why Better Cross-Lingual Alignment Fails for Better Cross-Lingual Transfer: Case of Encoders

It is found that embedding-based alignment metrics do not reliably indicate whether alignment will improve or degrade downstream performance, and that the compatibility between alignment and downstream objectives should be considered when designing/evaluating alignment methods.

Structural priors for data-efficient language learning

Efficient language learning requires methods to reduce the reliance on large data and computational resources. We investigate structural transfer: First training models on non-language data to induce useful priors for natural language. This approach is a form of weight initialization for multilingual language modeling....
