Papers
- A Principled Framework for Evaluating on Typologically Diverse Languages (2026 · 11 citations)
Multilingual NLP models are often described as working "across languages," but they can only be tested on a small subset of the world's languages. - How Good is Your Wikipedia? Auditing Data Quality for Low-resource and Multilingual NLP (2026 · 6 citations)
Wikipedia is often treated as a reliably clean source for NLP and is even used as a "high quality" reference when filtering web data. - Confounding Factors in Relating Model Performance to Morphology (2025 · 6 citations)
Studies disagree on whether morphologically rich languages are inherently harder for language models. The authors argue that much of this disagreement comes from uncontrolled variables in experimental design. They first list six confounds that an ideal study would keep fixed: the language set, morphological grouping… - Form and Meaning in Intrinsic Multilingual Evaluations (2026 · 1 citation)
Multilingual research often ranks models or languages by intrinsic scores such as perplexity, computed on multi-parallel test sets.
