• Abstract: This paper introduces a multi-level, multi-label text classification dataset comprising over 3000 documents. The dataset features literary and critical texts from 19th-century Ottoman Turkish and Russian. It is the first study to apply large language models (LLMs) to this dataset, sourced from prominent literary periodicals of the era. The texts have been meticulously organized and labeled. This was done according to a taxonomic framework that takes into account both their structural and semantic attributes. Articles are categorized and tagged with bibliometric metadata by human experts. We present baseline classification results using a classical bag-of-words (BoW) naive Bayes model and three modern LLMs: multilingual BERT, Falcon, and Llama-v2. We found that in certain cases, Bag of Words (BoW) outperforms Large Language Models (LLMs), emphasizing the need for additional research, especially in low-resource language settings. This dataset is expected to be a valuable resource for researchers in natural language processing and machine learning, especially for historical and low-resource languages. The dataset is publicly available^1.

  This research proposes a novel perspective on Universal Cross-Lingual Text Classification. Our approach involves blending supervised data from different languages during training to create a universal model. The primary goal is to enhance label and language coverage, aiming for a label set that represents a union of labels from various languages.

  Recent foundational language models have shown state-of-the-art performance in many NLP tasks in zero- and few-shot settings. An advantage of these models over more standard approaches is the ability to understand instructions written in natural language (prompts) This makes them suitable for addressing text classification problems for domains with limited amounts of annotated instances.

  In zero-shot multilingual extractive text summarization, a model is typically trained on English dataset and then applied on summarization datasets of other languages. We propose NLS (Neural Label Search for Summarization), which jointly learns hierarchical weights for different sets of labels together with our summarization model. We conduct multilingual zero-shot summarization experiments on MLSUM and WikiLingua datasets, and we achieve state-of-the-art results using both human and automatic evaluations.
