1. **[Gromov-Wasserstein Alignment of Word Embedding Spaces](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/melis-2018-gromov-wasserstein-alignment-word-embedding/)** *(2018 · 338 citations)* The paper addresses unsupervised bilingual lexical induction: matching words across two languages using only monolingual embeddings, with no parallel data.
2. **[A Label is Worth a Thousand Images in Dataset Distillation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/qin-2024-label-worth-thousand-images-dataset/)** *(2024 · 8 citations)* Dataset distillation compresses a large training set into a small synthetic one that trains models almost as well, but leading methods generate synthetic images in very different ways, so it is unclear what drives their success.
