Automatic machine translation evaluation in many languages via zero-shot paraphrasing

B Thompson, M Post - arXiv preprint arXiv:2004.14564, 2020 - arxiv.org
We frame the task of machine translation evaluation as one of scoring machine translation
output with a sequence-to-sequence paraphraser, conditioned on a human reference. We …

End-to-end transformer-based models in textual-based NLP

A Rahali, MA Akhloufi - AI, 2023 - mdpi.com
Transformer architectures are highly expressive because they use self-attention
mechanisms to encode long-range dependencies in the input sequences. In this paper, we …
