• Abstract: Compared to English, the amount of labeled data for Indonesian text classification tasks is very small. Recently developed multilingual language models have shown its ability to create multilingual representations effectively. This paper investigates the effect of combining English and Indonesian data on building Indonesian text classification (e.g., sentiment analysis and hate speech) using multilingual language models. Using the feature-based approach, we observe its performance on various data sizes and total added English data. The experiment showed that the addition of English data, especially if the amount of Indonesian data is small, improves performance. Using the fine-tuning approach, we further showed its effectiveness in utilizing the English language to build Indonesian text classification models.

  We aim to create a multilingual ALT system with available datasets. Inspired by architectures that have been proven effective for English ALT, we adapt these techniques to the multilingual scenario. We evaluate the performance of the multilingual model in comparison to its monolingual counterparts.

  Cross-lingual self-supervised visual representation learning has been a growing research topic in the last few years. We use the recently-proposed Raw Audio-Visual Speechs (RAVEn) framework to pre-train an audio-visual model with unlabelled data. Our experiments show that: (1) multi-lingual models with more data outperform monolingual ones, but, when keeping the amount of data fixed, monolingual models tend to reach better performance.
