ALIA public AI models just released in Spain partly use one of our datasets 🙂
Juan Antonio Pérez@japer3z

The dataset PILAR github.com/transducens/PI… that our @transducens research group at @UA_Universidad @UA_Universitat collected and released in 2024 was included in the training data of the ALIA machine translation models langtech-bsc.gitbook.io/alia-kit/datas… for Aragonese, Aranese, and Asturian, developed by the @BSC_CNS and presented last week by the Spanish Government: alia.gob.es 🥳 According to their model cards, the translation models were developed by the @BSC_CNS as part of the Shared Task on Translation into Low-Resource Languages of Spain that we successfully organized last year: www2.statmt.org/wmt24/romance-… Note that we have also contributed our own multilingual model, called IBRO, designed for translation from Spanish into several Romance languages, including Aragonese, Aranese, Asturian, Catalan (Valencian included), and Galician, as well as from Catalan into Aranese. The 1.3B IBRO model huggingface.co/Transducens/Ib… was publicly funded through the LiLowLa project: transducens.dlsi.ua.es/lilowla/ Although the resources invested are significant, greater support from public administrations is essential. ✊🔥 Some impactful measures, like releasing certain public linguistic resources under open licenses, are not especially costly but could have a major impact.

This morning, we had the pleasure of attending @AyodeleLifted's talk titled "Empowering African Languages through NLP: The Masakhane Project", where she shared the key contributions of the @MasakhaneNLP project in bringing African languages 🌍 into the digital and AI world. A truly inspiring talk that sparked plenty of interaction and engagement from the audience. Ayodele Awokoya is currently a visiting researcher in our @transducens group, and we’re exploring the fine-tuning of large language models for machine translation involving Yorùbá, combined with data augmentation techniques. A huge thank you also to @ELLIS_Alicante and @nuriaoliver for their amazing support and enthusiasm in hosting this event in their fantastic facilities! 🙌 This event, coincidentally, aligned with UNESCO’s World Day of African and Afrodescendant Culture, which is celebrated today. 🌟

We will also be presenting today at #EMNLP24 #WMT24 the key findings of the shared task on Translation into Low-Resource Languages of Spain. A total of 17 teams from around the world contributed their models for machine translation from Spanish into Aragonese, Aranese and Asturian. Some of them will also be here presenting how they did it. Read the full paper here: aclanthology.org/2024.wmt-1.57/

If you hurry, you can still catch my presentation at the 13th Workshop on Natural Language Processing for Computer-Assisted Language Learning (#NLP4CALL), happening in Rennes, France, in just a few hours. I'll be presenting our paper "A conversational intelligent tutoring system for improving English proficiency of non-native speakers via debriefing of online meeting transcriptions." aclanthology.org/2024.nlp4call-… nlp4call2024.sciencesconf.org Our chatbot, DeMINT, uses AI to analyze online meeting transcriptions and provides personalized feedback to help non-native speakers improve their English through interactive dialogues. Early results with L1-Spanish/L2-English learners show promise for language learning in real-world settings. Code, datasets, and models on github.com/transducens/de… Project funded by @UTTERProject via cascade funding.
