Task: Question Answering
Input (English): We evaluate the proposed methods in 8 languages, showing a significant ability to learn from partial data. We additionally experiment with initializing CBL with domain-specific instance-weighting schemes, showing mixed results. In the process, we use weighted variants of popular NER models, showing strong performance in both non-neural and neural settings. Finally, we show experiments in a real-world setting, by employing non-speakers to manually annotate romanized Bengali text. We experiment on 8 languages. Four languages – English, German, Spanish, Dutch – come from the CoNLL 2002/2003 shared tasks BIBREF21, BIBREF22. These are taken from newswire text, and have labelset of Person, Organization, Location, Miscellaneous.

The remaining four languages come from the LORELEI project BIBREF23. These languages are: Amharic (amh: LDC2016E87), Arabic (ara: LDC2016E89), Hindi (hin: LDC2017E62), and Somali (som: LDC2016E91). These come from a variety of sources including discussion forums, newswire, and social media.
