## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[Document-Level Neural Machine Translation with Hierarchical Attention Networks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/miculicich-2018-document-level-neural-machine-translation/)** *(2018 · 411 citations)* Standard NMT systems translate each sentence in isolation. This ignores discourse links and can hurt the cohesion of a translated document. The authors add document context to a Transformer through a hierarchical attention network (HAN) that reuses the model's own hidden states from the k previous sentences instead…
2. **[Deep Encoder, Shallow Decoder: Reevaluating Non-autoregressive Machine Translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/kasai-2020-deep-encoder-shallow-decoder-reevaluating/)** *(2020 · 132 citations)* Non-autoregressive translation (NAR) is often presented as a faster alternative to standard autoregressive (AR) Transformers, with only a small loss in quality.
