This is supplementary data and code to help reproduce the results of a paper of the same name. It is currently available in somewhat unpolished form, but will be fully documented in the near future.

• populations: contains .tsv files with language-population data and other population-relevant data

• task_results: contains .tsv files with the aggregated results for each NLP task.

• economic_indicators_data: contains files from WITS (under wits_en_trade_summary_allcountries_allyears) and converted to map to languages instead of countries. Important files are:

  • languages_to_gdp.tsv for monolingual mapping of languages to associated GDP estimations.
  • bilingual_indicators.tsv for bilingual mapping of languages to associated bilingual indicators (Imports, Exports) estimations. Also includes the triangulated BLEU scores for the language pair.

• figs: contains correlation figures, created with the plot_*_correlations.py scripts.

• area-classifier: contains data and code for a classifier of areas

• counterfactuals.py: computes the counterfactual scenarios presented in the paper
• constants.py contains functions to read in all necessary data, which are used in other files to run the metrics estimations and produce the plots
• economic_indicators.py: contains function to read in economic indicators (called by constants.py)

1. Add general metric calculation script
2. Data paths are all absolute, need to correct this
