#1 Low-resource Machine Translation for Code-switched Kazakh-Russian Language Pair [PDF] [Copy] [Kimi] [REL]

Authors: Maksim Borisov, Zhanibek Kozhirbayev, Valentin Malykh

Machine translation for low-resource language pairs is a challenging task. This task could become extremely difficult once a speaker uses code switching. We present the first code-switching Kazakh-Russian parallel corpus.Additionally, we propose a method to build a machine translation model for code-switched Kazakh-Russian language pair with no labeled data. Our method is basing on generation of synthetic data. This method results in a model beating an existing commercial system by human evaluation.
