Резюме	A Multilingual Variational Autoencoder (ML-VAE) extends the standard VAE framework to handle multiple languages within a shared probabilistic latent space. Language-specific encoders map text from each language into a common continuous representation, while language-specific decoders reconstruct or translate that text. This enables cross-lingual generation, style transfer, and representation learning with or without parallel corpora.	A multilingual transformer is a pre-trained language model built on the transformer architecture and trained jointly on text from dozens to over one hundred languages. Models such as mBERT and XLM-RoBERTa learn shared cross-lingual representations, enabling zero-shot or few-shot transfer: a model fine-tuned on English data can often be applied directly to French, German, Arabic, or Chinese without language-specific labels.
