• Abstract: The Kyrgyz language, as a low-resource language, requires significant effort to create high-quality syntactic corpora. This study proposes an approach to simplify the development process of a syntactic corpus for Kyrgyz. We present a tool for transferring syntactic annotations from Turkish to Kyrgyz based on a treebank translation method. The effectiveness of the proposed tool was evaluated using the TueCL treebank. The results demonstrate that this approach achieves higher syntactic annotation accuracy compared to a monolingual model trained on the Kyrgyz KTMU treebank. Additionally, the study introduces a method for assessing the complexity of manual annotation for the resulting syntactic trees, contributing to further optimization of the annotation process.

  We first investigate whether current retrieval systems can comprehend the Boolean logic implied in language. Through extensive experimental results, we draw the conclusion that current dense retrieval systems do not fully understand Boolean logic in language. We propose a contrastive continual training method that serves as a strong baseline for the research community.

  Context-aware neural machine translation aims to use the document-level context to improve translation quality. The irrelevant or trivial words may bring some noise and distract the model from learning the relationship between the current sentence and the auxiliary context. We propose a novel end-to-end encoder-decoder model with a layer-wise selection mechanism to sift and refine the long document context.

  This paper addresses the problem of structured sentiment analysis using a bi-affine semantic dependency. For the monolingual setup, we considered: (i) training on a single treebank, and (ii) relaxing the setup by training on treebanks coming from different languages. For the zero-shot setup and a given target treebank, we relied on: (i) a word-level translation of available treebanks in other languages to get noisy, unlikely-grammatical, but annotated data. In the post-evaluation phase, we also trained cross-lingual models that simply merged all the English tree

  We introduce a knowledge distillation strategy for injecting syntactic biases into BERT pretraining. We distill the approximate marginal distribution over words in context from the syntactic LM. Our findings demonstrate the benefits of syntactic biases, even in representation learners that exploit large amounts of data.

  We make use of a multi-task objective, i.e., the models simultaneously predict words as well as ground truth parse trees in a form called "syntactic distances" Experimental results on the Penn Treebank and Chinese Treebank datasets show that when ground truth parse trees are provided as additional training signals, the model is able to achieve lower perplexity and induce trees with better quality.

  unsupervised neural machine translation almost completely relieves the parallel corpus curse. We propose a new reference language-based framework for UNMT, RUNMT, in which the reference language only shares a parallel corpus with the source. Experimental results show that our methods improve the quality of UNMT over that of a strong baseline that uses only one auxiliary language.
