Table 4.6: “Transformed Vocab” has the same setting as Direct Transfer but merges the parent and child vocabulary as described in Section 4.6. The structure is the same as in Table 4.1. The baseline uses child-specific vocabulary. The statistical significance ‡ is measured between Direct Transfer and Transformed Vocabulary.
['Model', 'Baseline', 'Direct Transfer', 'Transformed Vocab']
We added a column with results of Transformed Vocabulary. We see “Transformed Vocabulary” delivering the best performance for all language pairs except English→Estonian, significantly improving over “Direct Transfer” in most cases. The only exceptions are Estonian→English, English→French and French→Spanish, where neither of the systems is significantly better than the other, however, both of them are significantly better than the baseline.
