Apparently grammar can travel without a passport 🌍 We trained a new neural grammar model *Tarakib* across 166 languages on top of Sawtone [1] - itself trained on nearly 400 langs. We then tested it on 28 languages that contributed no training updates to the grammar task. The surprising result: it still learned useful parts-of-speech structure based on the foundational linguistic representation offered by Sawtone. Performance varied considerably, and the transfer was not limited to close, same-script relatives but crossed writing systems. We found connections across language families, and about a quarter of the stable transfer links crossed writing systems.
This does not mean universal parsing is solved. But it suggests that Sawtone's representations contain universal grammatical clues that a shared model can reuse in languages it was never directly taught to parse.
Turns out : if we predict 🌏 earth we can save a lot of time looking for interesting things and less time looking at things that we expect to see.
Sentinel-2 imagery 🛰️basically takes a long time to download towards earth. so our "near real time" systems are quite far from that in practical terms.
meanwhile , if we "predict" what we will see , based on what we do see , we can send down much less data in a timely way , and prioritize 📡earth-bound response .
I'm talking about illegal fishing , logging , mining or building in nature reserves , the more of that we predict early the more we're able to stop it on time.
since everyone liked my previous announcement post ( https://huggingface.co/posts/Tonic/338509028435394 ) so much , i'm back with more high quality proceedural datasets in the Geospacial domain for SFT training !
