    • African languages are spoken by over a billion people, but are underrepresented in NLP research and development. The challenges impeding progress include the limited availability of annotated datasets, as well as a lack of understanding of the settings where current methods are effective. In this paper, we make progress towards solutions for these challenges, focusing on the task of named entity recognition (NER). We create the largest human-annotated NER dataset for 20 African languages, and we study the behavior of state-of-the-art cross-lingual transfer methods in an Africa-centric setting, demonstrating that the choice of source language significantly affects performance. We show that choosing the best transfer language improves zero-shot F1 scores by an average of 14 points across 20 languages compared to using English. Our results highlight the need for benchmark datasets and models that cover typologically-diverse African languages.

  • MasakhaNER: Named Entity Recognition for African Languages
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics. - : MIT Press. - 2307-387X. ; 9, s. 1116-1131

    • We take a step towards addressing the under-representation of the African continent in NLP research by bringing together different stakeholders to create the first large, publicly available, high-quality dataset for named entity recognition (NER) in ten African languages. We detail the characteristics of these languages to help researchers and practitioners better understand the challenges they pose for NER tasks. We analyze our datasets and conduct an extensive empirical evaluation of state-of-the-art methods across both supervised and transfer learning settings. Finally, we release the data, code, and models to inspire future research on African NLP.

  • Run, Actor, Run : Towards Cross-Actor Language Benchmarking
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: AGERE 2019 Proceedings of the 9th ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Programming Based on Actors, Agents, and Decentralized Control. - New York, NY, USA : Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). - 9781450369824 ; , s. 41-50
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The actor paradigm supports the natural expression of concurrency. It has inspired the development of several actor-based languages, whose adoption depends, to a large extent, on the runtime characteristics ( the performance and scaling behaviour) of programs written in these languages.This paper investigates the relative runtime characteristics of Akka, CAF and Pony, based on the Savina benchmarks. We observe that the scaling of many of the Savina benchmarks does not reflect their categorization (into essentially sequential, concurrent and parallel), that many programs have similar runtime characteristics, and that their runtime behaviour may drastically change nature ( go from essentially sequential to parallel) by tweaking some parameters.These observations lead to our proposal of a single benchmark program which we designed so that through tweaking of some knobs (we hope) we can simulate most of the programs of the Savina suite.
