Sažetak

This paper presents a cross-lingual sentiment analysis of news articles using zero-shot and few-shot learning. The study aims to classify the Croatian news articles with the positive, negative, and neu- tral sentiment using the Slovene dataset. The system is based on a trilin- gual BERT-based model trained in three languages: English, Slovene, Croatian. The paper analyses different setups of using datasets in two languages and proposes a simple multi-task model to perform sentiment classification. The evaluation is performed using the few-shot and zero- shot scenarios in single-task and multi-task experiments for Croatian and Slovene.
