The earlier AfriCOMET line of metrics had no public training data, small test sets, and only one MT system per language pair, and it was unstable on very low-resource languages such as Twi and Luo. The authors built SSA-MTE, a human-annotated evaluation… 2. **[PortOldBERT: Portuguese Historical Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/osorio-2026-portoldbert-portuguese-historical-language-models/)** *(2026)* Historical texts differ from modern ones in vocabulary, meaning, morphology and especially spelling, which was not standardised before the 18th–19th centuries. ## All works 6 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[SSA-COMET: Do LLMs Outperform Learned Metrics in Evaluating MT for Under-Resourced African Languages?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2025-ssa-comet-do-llms-outperform/) [Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/)**Senyu Li, Jiayi Wang, Felermino D.
