MT metrics excel at evaluating sentence translations, but struggle with complex texts We introduce *TREQA* a framework to assess how translations preserve key info by using LLMs to generate & answer questions about them arxiv.org/abs/2504.07583 (co-lead @swetaagrawal20) 1/15

Highly recommend everyone to read Yusuf's work on data contanimation! He trained almost 90 models investigating how different types of contanimation affect test set scores! Very insigthful paper.

Thrilled to share our latest findings on data contamination, from my internship at @Google! We trained almost 90 Models on 1B and 8B scales with various contamination types using machine translation as our task and analyze the impact of contamination. arxiv.org/abs/2501.18771
