A3-108 Controlling Token Generation in Low Resource Machine Translation Systems

Translating for low-resource languages is challenging due to limited quality data. We improved translation performance by integrating target sentence length as an additional feature to source sentence during training. We developed transformer models and evaluated across 8 language directions (English <=> Assamese, Manipuri, Khasi, and Mizo), using four different length encoding methods. Comparing these models to the baseline, we submitted two systems per language direction and present our findings here.​
