Abstract
Methods and systems for training a neural network include training language-specific teacher models using different respective source language datasets. A student model is trained, using the different respective source language datasets and soft labels generated by the language-specific teacher models, including shuffling the source language datasets and shuffling weights of language-dependent layers in language-specific parts of the student model. Weights of language-independent layers of the student model are copied to a language-independent layers of a target model to initialize language-independent layers of the target model. The target model is trained with a target language dataset.
