Bridging the Gap: Transfer Learning from English PLMs to Malaysian English
arXiv:2407.01374v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Malaysian English is a low resource creole language, where it carries the elements of Malay, Chinese, and Tamil languages, in addition to Standard English. Named Entity Recognition (NER) models underperform when capturing entities from Malaysian English text due to its distinctive morphosyntactic adaptations, semantic features and code-switching (mixing English and Malay). Considering these gaps, we introduce MENmBERT and MENBERT, a...

From Outliers to Errors: Auditing Pali-to-English LLM Translations with Multi-Reference Adjudication
arXiv:2606.01136v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Single-score translation metrics can conflate legitimate variation with error, a problem especially acute for classical languages where multiple defensible English renderings of the same passage coexist. We audit Pali-to-English output from four flagship large language models (LLMs): GPT-5.5, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and Grok 4.3, on 1,700 passages from the Pali Canon, using three established human translations by Bhikkhu Sujato,...

Generalistic or Specific Embeddings, Which is Better? An Empirical Study on Search for Clinical Coding in Non-English Languages
arXiv:2605.30529v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sentence-embedding models for semantic search are overwhelmingly developed and evaluated on English corpora. When applied to clinical retrieval in other languages -- particularly retrieval of ICD-10-CM / CIE-10 codes -- recall degrades in ways often masked by aggregate benchmarks. We study whether large generative language models can serve as data factories to close this gap.
