Language Models on a Diet: Cost-Efficient Development of Encoders for Closely-Related Languages via Additional Pretraining Open
The world of language models is going through turbulent times, better and ever larger models are coming out at an unprecedented speed. However, we argue that, especially for the scientific community, encoder models of up to 1 billion param…

Do Language Models Care About Text Quality? Evaluating Web-Crawled Corpora Across 11 Languages Open
Large, curated, web-crawled corpora play a vital role in training language models (LMs). They form the lion's share of the training data in virtually all recent LMs, such as the well-known GPT, LLaMA and XLM-RoBERTa models. However, despit…

Get to Know Your Parallel Data: Performing English Variety and Genre Classification over MaCoCu Corpora Open
Collecting texts from the web enables a rapid creation of monolingual and parallel corpora of unprecedented size. However, unlike manually-collected corpora, authors and end users do not know which texts make up the web collections. In thi…

BENCHić-lang: A Benchmark for Discriminating between Bosnian, Croatian, Montenegrin and Serbian Open
Automatic discrimination between Bosnian, Croatian, Montenegrin and Serbian is a hard task due to the mutual intelligibility of these South-Slavic languages. In this paper, we introduce the BENCHić-lang benchmark for discriminating between…
