Performance of Multilingual Models on Domain-Specific vs. General Tasks in XGLUE Cross-Lingual NLI

In this paper, we introduce XGLUE, a new benchmark dataset that can be used to train large-scale cross-lingual pre-trained models using multilingual and bilingual corpora and evaluate their performance across a diverse set of cross-lingual tasks. Comparing to GLUE(Wang et al., 2019), which is labeled in English for natural language understanding tasks only, XGLUE has two main advantages: (1) it provides 11 diversified tasks that cover both natural language understanding and generation scenarios; (2) for each task, it provides labeled data in multiple languages. We extend a recent cross-lingual

Research goal: How does the performance of multilingual models trained on domain-specific intermediate tasks compare to those trained on general language understanding tasks when evaluated on the XGLUE benchmark for cross-lingual natural language inference?
