TLDR
This paper proposed a multilingual variant of T5, mT5, which was pre-trained on a new Common Crawl-based dataset covering 101 languages and achieved state-of-the-art performance on many multilingual benchmarks.Abstract:
The recent “Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer” (T5) leveraged a unified text-to-text format and scale to attain state-of-the-art results on a wide variety of English-language NLP tasks. In this paper, we introduce mT5, a multilingual variant of T5 that was pre-trained on a new Common Crawl-based dataset covering 101 languages. We detail the design and modified training of mT5 and demonstrate its state-of-the-art performance on many multilingual benchmarks. We also describe a simple technique to prevent “accidental translation” in the zero-shot setting, where a generative model chooses to (partially) translate its prediction into the wrong language. All of the code and model checkpoints used in this work are publicly available.read more

mPLM-Sim: Unveiling Better Cross-Lingual Similarity and Transfer in Multilingual Pretrained Language Models
TL;DR: This paper proposed mPLM-Sim, a new language similarity measure that induces the similarities across languages from mPLMs using multi-parallel corpora, which is effective for zero-shot cross-lingual transfer by conducting experiments on both low-level syntactic and high-level semantic tasks.

RoBERTa: A Robustly Optimized BERT Pretraining Approach
Yinhan Liu,Myle Ott,Naman Goyal,Jingfei Du,Mandar Joshi,Danqi Chen,Omer Levy,Michael Lewis,Luke Zettlemoyer,Veselin Stoyanov +9 more
TL;DR: It is found that BERT was significantly undertrained, and can match or exceed the performance of every model published after it, and the best model achieves state-of-the-art results on GLUE, RACE and SQuAD.
