• Abstract: As the performance of Large-scale Vision Language Models (LVLMs) improves, they are increasingly capable of responding in multiple languages, and there is an expectation that the demand for explanations generated by LVLMs will grow. However, pre-training of Vision Encoder and the integrated training of LLMs with Vision Encoder are mainly conducted using English training data, leaving it uncertain whether LVLMs can completely handle their potential when generating explanations in languages other than English. In addition, multilingual QA benchmarks that create datasets using machine translation have cultural differences and biases, remaining issues for use as evaluation tasks. To address these challenges, this study created an extended dataset in multiple languages without relying on machine translation. This dataset that takes into account nuances and country-specific phrases was then used to evaluate the generation explanation abilities of LVLMs. Furthermore, this study examined whether Instruction-Tuning in resource-rich English improves performance in other languages. Our findings indicate that LVLMs perform worse in languages other than English compared to English. In addition, it was observed that LVLMs struggle to effectively manage the knowledge learned from English data. Our dataset is available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/naist-nlp/MultiExpArt

• Enhancing Code Generation for Low-Resource Languages: No Silver Bullet [55.39571645315926]
  Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on large and diverse datasets to learn syntax, semantics, and usage patterns of programming languages. For low-resource languages, the limited availability of such data hampers the models' ability to generalize effectively. We present an empirical study investigating the effectiveness of several approaches for boosting LLMs' performance on low-resource languages.

  Large language models (LLMs) are known to effectively perform tasks by simply observing few exemplars. We propose to assemble synthetic exemplars from a diverse set of high-resource languages to prompt the LLMs to translate from any language into English. Our unsupervised prompting method performs on par with supervised few-shot learning in LLMs of different sizes for translations between English and 13 Indic and 21 African low-resource languages.

We show that careful curation along with post-processing lead to improved performance and overall LMs robustness.
