Cross-lingual NER robustness in adapter-based fine-tuning under adversarial conditions

Cross-lingual Named Entity Recognition (NER) leverages knowledge transfer between languages to identify and classify named entities, making it particularly useful for low-resource languages. We show that the data-based cross-lingual transfer method is an effective technique for crosslingual NER and can outperform multilingual language models for low-resource languages. This paper introduces two key enhancements to the annotation projection step in cross-lingual NER for low-resource languages. First, we explore refining word alignments using back-translation to improve accuracy. Second, we pres

Research goal: What is the impact of adapter-based fine-tuning on cross-lingual NER robustness when evaluated on adversarial or noisy input data across multiple low-resource languages in the WikiAnn benchmark?
