Dynamic Batch Scheduling Effects on XLM-R Fine-Tuning for Low-Resource Euphemism Detection

Euphemisms are culturally variable and often ambiguous, posing challenges for language models, especially in low-resource settings. This paper investigates how cross-lingual transfer via sequential fine-tuning affects euphemism detection across five languages: English, Spanish, Chinese, Turkish, and Yoruba. We compare sequential fine-tuning with monolingual and simultaneous fine-tuning using XLM-R and mBERT, analyzing how performance is shaped by language pairings, typological features, and pretraining coverage. Results show that sequential fine-tuning with a high-resource L1 improves L2 perfo

Research goal: How does dynamic batch size scheduling during sequential fine-tuning of XLM-R impact F1 scores on the CueOffense benchmark for low-resource language euphemism detection compared to static batch configurations?
