Hi @Pginer-WMF,
Have you already have a look in our Section Recommendation demo app? That's currently working for 6 languages. Expand it and specially maintaining for many languages could be complex, however, a simplified version of that system, using a dump approach instead of an API (like we have done with the template parameter alignment) it could be feasible.

@Aklapper done!

Here a summary of the work done: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Disinformation_Literature_Review

@Nuria the entropy approach looks very cool, thanks for sharing.

We (research) will be supporting @ssingh on his work related to this problem, especially focused in censorship.

@santhosh , I've never tried that (I understand that docker files are kind of virtual environment, but honestly, I've never used it). We can try, but remember that the person will need access to our spark cluster. Do you know if the docker environment can connect with Yarn?

@diego please review below as well since you worked with GII folks during the past iteration:

Looks ok to me.

@Pginer-WMF , I'm going to put this task as resolved from me side, and we can continue the follow-up somewhere else, ok?

Considering the feedback obtained in T225136, we conclude that the prioritization should be adapted to the characteristic of the editor being assisted. We can split editors in two disjoint groups, generating two different types of recommendations:

Hi all,
I think this use-case highlight the need for a canonical (standanrized) cross-lingual topic model, that we could all use as the reference for all the projects within the WMF.

oh! I see, that number is distance, so 0 would be perfect match, 1 is not matching at all. I've already put a upper bound .45, so you will just see values lower than that.

If I understood correctly, you are asking why two exacts strings are not having distance = 0; this is because there is not string matching mechanism in this approach. Every language is trained separately, and then aligned using some words or sentences that we know that are equivalent. This is not necessarily bad, because you will find some words that are written exactly the same, but means different things in each language. However, in the examples that you show, this is just part of the noise introduced by the model.
We could add a second step, for example using Levenshtein distance, that would take advantage of string similarity , but it would work only for languages within the same scripts. If we had some training data, we could learn how to mix these two approaches and how useful would be the latter.

Hi,
I have created and uploaded the full experiments and aligned parameters for these languages:

["es", "en", "fr", "ar", "ru", "uk", "pt", "vi", "zh", "ru", "he", "it", "ta", "id", "fa", "ca"]

Sorry, I've put the wrong link to the experiments in the previous comment, now is updated.

You can find the results of the experiments here.

From the [[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research_talk:Expanding_Wikipedia_articles_across_languages/Inter_language_approach/Feedback | feedback page ]]set up by we got the following main two points:

This has been done and tracked in T215348
Documentation can be found here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Expanding_Wikipedia_articles_across_languages/Inter_language_approach#Section_Recommendation

Fixed JSON format issues for the APIs. Now they are working correctly.

The documentation for the updated version of the section recommender system can be found here:

API up and running, please check the documentation here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Expanding_Wikipedia_articles_across_languages/Inter_language_approach#Section_Recommendation

The solution to this problem was the following:

Finally it's not just me squeezing notebooks memory :)

I think we are talking about three different things:

@JAllemandou , yes. Having this by revision would be great!

@Tbayer , great. Thanks.

@jcrespo, the API works good for query specific pages/entities, not for example to know which pages that existing in X_wiki are missing on the Y_wiki.
My point here it is that the wikidata identifier is currently the main identifier for a page/concept, and that this fact is not reflected on the DB structure. I understand that this might be due historical reasons, but it would be good to think in a way that our DBs make easier to link content across wikis.

@EBernhardson , this looks exactly what I was looking for, initially. Thank you very much for that.

Looks good @JAllemandou, thanks.
This is a good workaround, but imho, we should have an structure or schema that makes this kind of tasks easier, specially for people outside without access to a cluster.

We do have one very large asset file at 1.9GB (word2vec embedding). I don't need that to be much bigger right now, but we're starting to discuss using embeddings more generally in the mid term and I don't have a good sense for how large they can become. @diego might have a better sense for how big these embeddings can be.

Check this notebook, apparently the number of white spaces is a pretty good indicator of the filename quality.
