Current paradigms for empowering Large Language Models (LLMs) with multilingual capabilities rely heavily on massive instruction tuning. We challenge this view, proposing that the barrier is topological alignment, not data quantity. We introduce Hybrid Cross-Alignment (HCA), fusing a frozen NLLB...

Current large language models (LLMs) often exhibit performance imbalances between dominant languages (e.g., English) and non-dominant ones due to the skewed distribution of pretraining data. A common strategy to address this issue is to enhance cross-lingual alignment, thereby facilitating non-do...
