Data-Driven Approach for Formality-Sensitive Machine Translation: Language-Specific Handling and Synthetic Data Generation
In this paper, we introduce a data-driven approach for Formality-Sensitive Machine Translation (FSMT) that caters to the unique linguistic properties of four target languages. Our methodology centers on two core strategies: 1) language-specific data handling, and 2) synthetic data generation using large-scale language models and empirical prompt engineering. This approach demonstrates a considerable improvement over the baseline, highlighting the effectiveness of data-centric techniques. Our prompt engineering strategy further improves performance by producing superior synthetic translation examples.

Multi-Task Neural Models for Translating Between Styles Within and Across Languages
Generating natural language requires conveying content in an appropriate style. We explore two related tasks on generating text of varying formality: monolingual formality transfer and formality-sensitive machine transla…

Stylistic variations of language, such as formality, carry speakers{'} intention beyond literal meaning and should be conveyed adequately in translation. We propose to use lexical formality models to control the formalit…
