arXiv:2512. 03086v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities in code translation, yet their performance deteriorates in low-resource programming domains such as Fortran and emerging frameworks like CUDA, where high-quality parallel data are scarce.

The paper explores using reinforcement learning to enhance automatic text simplification for low‑resource languages, focusing on Catalan. It introduces a new reward function that blends the SARI metric with penalty terms, and applies Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) to fine‑tune the IberianLLM‑7B‑Instruct model on the ASSET dataset. Post‑training, the model shows improved simplification performance on two Catalan benchmarks and reduces prior negative behaviors, though cross‑lingual transfer from English, Spanish, and Catalan translations of ASSET does not yield significant gains on an out‑of‑domain benchmark.

arXiv:2606. 08011v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although directly prompting off-the-shelf Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate meaning-preserving source rewrites can effectively enhance Machine Translation (MT) quality, doing so requires manually tuning prompts for different MT models.

arXiv:2602. 11715v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) have emerged as a compelling alternative to autoregressive (AR) LLMs, owing to their capacity for parallel token generation.
