Papers
- The Multilingual Alignment Prism: Aligning Global and Local Preferences to Reduce Harm (2024 · 49 citations)
Most LLM safety alignment targets English and relies on Western-centric data. This leaves non-English users more exposed and lets other languages serve as a route around guardrails. The paper asks three things: whether harm mitigation can work across many languages at once, whether it transfers across languages, and… - The State of Multilingual LLM Safety Research: From Measuring The Language Gap To Mitigating It (2025 · 25 citations)
This survey examines how much LLM safety research covers languages other than English. The authors reviewed nearly 300 papers from 2020–2024 published at ∗ACL conferences and workshops. They found candidate papers by searching abstracts for "safe" and "safety". They then labeled each paper by hand with a safety… - Multilingual Arbitrage: Optimizing Data Pools to Accelerate Multilingual Progress (2024 · 12 citations)
Synthetic training data for LLMs usually comes from one "teacher" model. That approach can pass on the teacher's biases, contribute to model collapse, and fail in multilingual work, where no single model is strongest in every language. The authors propose multilingual arbitrage : each prompt is sent to whichever… - Improving the OOD Performance of Closed-Source LLMs on NLI Through Strategic Data Selection (2026 · 1 citation)
Fine-tuning LLMs for Natural Language Inference (NLI) raises in-distribution accuracy but often lowers out-of-distribution (OOD) accuracy.
