• Abstract: This article presents the strategy for developing a platform containing Language Processing Chains for European Union languages, consisting of Tokenization to Parsing, also including Named Entity recognition andwith addition ofSentiment Analysis. These chains are part of the first step of an event-centric knowledge processing pipeline whose aim is to process multilingual media information about major events that can cause an impactin Europe and the rest of the world. Due to the differences in terms of availability of language resources for each language, we have built this strategy in three steps, starting with processing chains for the well-resourced languages and finishing with the development of new modules for the under-resourced ones. In order to classify all European Union official languages in terms of resources, we have analysed the size of annotated corpora as well as the existence of pre-trained models in mainstream Language Processing tools, and we have combined this information with the proposed classification published at META-NETwhitepaper series.

• A multilingual training strategy for low resource Text to Speech [5.109810774427171]
  We investigate whether data from social media can be used for a small TTS dataset construction, and whether cross lingual transfer learning can work with this type of data. To do so, we explore how data from foreign languages may be selected and pooled to train a TTS model for a target low resource language. Our findings show that multilingual pre-training is better than monolingual pre-training at increasing the intelligibility and naturalness of the generated speech.

  Cross-lingual representation learning transfers knowledge from resource-rich data to resource-scarce ones to improve the semantic understanding abilities of different languages. We propose an Unsupervised Pseudo Semantic Data Augmentation (UniPSDA) mechanism for cross-lingual natural language understanding to enrich the training data without human interventions.

Our XLM-P enables (1) lightweight modeling of language-invariant and language-specific knowledge across languages, and (2) easy integration with other multilingual pre-training methods.

  We present a cross-lingual summarisation corpus with long documents in a source language associated with multi-sentence summaries in a target language. The corpus covers twelve language pairs and directions for four European languages, namely Czech, English, French and German. We derive cross-lingual document-summary instances from Wikipedia by combining lead paragraphs and articles' bodies from language aligned Wikipedia titles.

• FILTER: An Enhanced Fusion Method for Cross-lingual Language Understanding [85.29270319872597]
  We propose an enhanced fusion method that takes cross-lingual data as input for XLM finetuning. During inference, the model makes predictions based on the text input in the target language and its translation in the source language. To tackle this issue, we propose an additional KL-divergence self-teaching loss for model training, based on auto-generated soft pseudo-labels for translated text in the target language.
