Incorporating Lexical and Syntactic Knowledge for Unsupervised Cross-Lingual Transfer

arXiv:2404.16627v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Unsupervised cross-lingual transfer involves transferring knowledge between languages without explicit supervision. Although numerous studies have been conducted to improve performance in such tasks by focusing on cross-lingual knowledge, particularly lexical and syntactic knowledge, current approaches are limited as they only incorporate syntactic or lexical information. Since each type of information offers unique advantages and no previous attempts have combined both, we attempt to explore the potential of this approach. In this paper, we present a …
