+ # Ladin-Val Badia to Italian Translation Model
33
+
34
+ ## Description
35
+ This model is designed for translating text between Ladin (Val Badia) and Italian.
36
+ The model was developed and trained as part of the research presented in the paper titled
37
+ "Rule-Based, Neural and LLM Back-Translation: Comparative Insights from a Variant of Ladin" submitted to [LoResMT @ ACL 2024](https://sites.google.com/view/loresmt/).

39
+ ## Paper
40
+ The details of the model, including its architecture, training process, and evaluation, are discussed in the paper:
41
+ - [Rule-Based, Neural and LLM Back-Translation: Comparative Insights from a Variant of Ladin](https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.08819)

+ abstract = "This paper explores the impact of different back-translation approaches on machine translation for Ladin, specifically the Val Badia variant. Given the limited amount of parallel data available for this language (only 18k Ladin-Italian sentence pairs), we investigate the performance of a multilingual neural machine translation model fine-tuned for Ladin-Italian. In addition to the available authentic data, we synthesise further translations by using three different models: a fine-tuned neural model, a rule-based system developed specifically for this language pair, and a large language model. Our experiments show that all approaches achieve comparable translation quality in this low-resource scenario, yet round-trip translations highlight differences in model performance.",
