We explore two related tasks on generating text of varying formality:\nmonolingual formality transfer and formality-sensitive machine translation. We\npropose to solve these tasks jointly using multi-task learning, and show that\nour models achieve state-of-the-art performance for formality transfer and are\nable to perform formality-sensitive translation without being explicitly\ntrained on style-annotated translation examples.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1806.04357v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1806.04357v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"multi-task-neural-models-for-translating","repo_url":"https://github.com/xingniu/multitask-ft-fsmt","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"mxnet","reach":{"status":"ok","spdx":"MIT"}},{"paper_slug":"multi-task-neural-models-for-translating","repo_url":"https://github.com/MindCode-4/code-3/tree/main/fsmt","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"mindspore","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"machine-translation","task_name":"Machine Translation"},{"task_slug":"multi-task-learning","task_name":"Multi-Task Learning"},{"task_slug":"translation","task_name":"Translation"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1806.04357","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
