• Abstract: This research conducts a comparative study on multilingual text classification methods, utilizing deep learning and embedding visualization. The study employs LangDetect, LangId, FastText, and Sentence Transformer on a dataset encompassing 17 languages. It explores dimensionality's impact on clustering, revealing FastText's clearer clustering in 2D visualization due to its extensive multilingual corpus training. Notably, the FastText multi-layer perceptron model achieved remarkable accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, outperforming the Sentence Transformer model. The study underscores the effectiveness of these techniques in multilingual text classification, emphasizing the importance of large multilingual corpora for training embeddings. It lays the groundwork for future research and assists practitioners in developing language detection and classification systems. Additionally, it includes the comparison of multi-layer perceptron, LSTM, and Convolution models for classification.

  Adapters and Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) are parameter-efficient fine-tuning techniques designed to make the training of language models more efficient. Previous results demonstrated that these methods can even improve performance on some classification tasks. This paper investigates how these techniques influence the classification performance and computation costs compared to full fine-tuning.

We evaluate multilingual encoders fine-tuned in a supervised fashion (i.e., we learn to rank) on English relevance data in a series of zero-shot language and domain transfer CLIR experiments.

  We investigate three categories of text augmentation methodologies which perform changes on the syntax.

Our results suggest that the augmentation techniques can further improve over strong baselines based on mBERT.
