• Abstract: This paper introduces a novel Czech dataset in the restaurant domain for aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA), enriched with annotations of opinion terms. The dataset supports three distinct ABSA tasks involving opinion terms, accommodating varying levels of complexity. Leveraging this dataset, we conduct extensive experiments using modern Transformer-based models, including large language models (LLMs), in monolingual, cross-lingual, and multilingual settings. To address cross-lingual challenges, we propose a translation and label alignment methodology leveraging LLMs, which yields consistent improvements. Our results highlight the strengths and limitations of state-of-the-art models, especially when handling the linguistic intricacies of low-resource languages like Czech. A detailed error analysis reveals key challenges, including the detection of subtle opinion terms and nuanced sentiment expressions. The dataset establishes a new benchmark for Czech ABSA, and our proposed translation-alignment approach offers a scalable solution for adapting ABSA resources to other low-resource languages.

  We propose a question alignment framework to bridge the gap between large language models' English and non-English performance. Experiment results show it can boost multilingual performance across diverse reasoning scenarios, model families, and sizes. We analyze representation space, generated response and data scales, and reveal how question translation training strengthens language alignment within LLMs.

  Cross-lingual summarization (MS) aims at generating a concise summary in a different target language. To collect large-scale CLS data, existing datasets typically involve translation in their creation. In this paper, we first confirm that different approaches of constructing CLS datasets will lead to different degrees of translationese.

  Recent research indicates that pretraining cross-lingual language models on large-scale unlabeled texts yields significant performance improvements. We propose a novel unsupervised feature decomposition method that can automatically extract domain-specific features from the entangled pretrained cross-lingual representations. Our proposed model leverages mutual information estimation to decompose the representations computed by a cross-lingual model into domain-invariant and domain-specific parts.
