Tone prediction and orthographic conversion for Basaa

2022-10-13 · Ilya Nikitin, Brian O'Connor, Anastasia Safonova

In this paper, we present a seq2seq approach for transliterating missionary Basaa orthographies into the official orthography. Our model uses pre-trained Basaa missionary and official orthography corpora using BERT. Since Basaa is a low-resource language, we have decided to use the mT5 model for our project. Before training our model, we pre-processed our corpora by eliminating one-to-one correspondences between spellings and unifying characters variably containing either one to two characters into single-character form. Our best mT5 model achieved a CER equal to 12.6747 and a WER equal to 40.1012.
