This paper presents ViSP, a high-quality Vietnamese dataset for sentence paraphrasing, consisting of 1.2M original-paraphrase pairs collected from various domains. The dataset was constructed using a hybrid approach that combines automatic…

The data scarcity in low-resource languages has become a bottleneck to building robust neural machine translation systems. Fine-tuning a multilingual pre-trained model (e.g., mBART (Liu et al., 2020)) on the translation task is a good…

We present our systems participated in the VLSP 2022 machine translation shared task. In the shared task this year, we participated in both translation tasks, i.e., Chinese-Vietnamese and Vietnamese-Chinese translations. We build our…

Like most natural language understanding and generation tasks, state-of-the-art models for summarization are transformer-based sequence-to-sequence architectures that are pretrained on large corpora. While most existing models focused on…

To achieve deep natural language understanding, syntactic constituent parsing plays a crucial role and is widely required by many artificial intelligence systems for processing both text and speech. A recent approach involves using standard…

We present the first multi-task learning model -- named PhoNLP -- for joint Vietnamese part-of-speech (POS) tagging, named entity recognition (NER) and dependency parsing. Experiments on Vietnamese benchmark datasets show that PhoNLP…

We open-source a state-of-the-art 4B-parameter generative model series for Vietnamese, which includes the base pre-trained monolingual model PhoGPT-4B and its chat variant, PhoGPT-4B-Chat. The base model, PhoGPT-4B, with exactly 3.7B…
