Language Model Tokenizers Introduce Unfairness Between Languages

Neural Information Processing Systems

Recent language models have shown impressive multilingual performance, even when not explicitly trained for it. Despite this, there are concerns about the quality of their outputs across different languages. In this paper, we show how disparity in the treatment of different languages arises at the tokenization stage, well before a model is even invoked. The same text translated into different languages can have drastically different tok-enization lengths, with differences up to 15 times in some cases. These disparities persist even for tokenizers that are intentionally trained for multilingual support.

Thus, instead of simply detecting changed pixels, we want to identify change events. We define a change event as a group of pixels over space and time that are all changed by a single event. Weareinterested indeveloping systems thatcanautomatically detectchangeeventsandassign to each a semantic label that indicates the nature of the event, e.g., forest fires, road construction etc. Identifying change events is a much more challenging problem than change detection.
