Language is a cornerstone of cultural identity, yet globalization and the dominance of major languages have placed nearly 3,000 languages at risk of extinction. Existing AI-driven translation models prioritize efficiency but often fail to capture cultural nuances, idiomatic expressions, and historical significance, leading to translations that marginalize linguistic diversity. To address these challenges, we propose a multi-agent AI framework designed for culturally adaptive translation in underserved language communities. Our approach leverages specialized agents for translation, interpretation, content synthesis, and bias evaluation, ensuring that linguistic accuracy and cultural relevance are preserved. Using CrewAI and LangChain, our system enhances contextual fidelity while mitigating biases through external validation. Comparative analysis shows that our framework outperforms GPT-4o, producing contextually rich and culturally embedded translations—a critical advancement for Indigenous, regional, and low-resource languages. This research underscores the potential of multi-agent AI in fostering equitable, sustainable, and culturally sensitive NLP technologies, aligning with the AI Governance, Cultural NLP, and Sustainable NLP pillars of Language Models for Underserved Communities.

Multilingual emotion detection is a critical challenge in natural language processing, enabling applications in sentiment analysis, mental health monitoring, and user engagement. However, existing models struggle with overlapping emotions, intensity quantification, and cross-lingual adaptation, particularly in low-resource languages. This study addresses these challenges as part of SemEval-2025 Task 11 by leveraging language-specific transformer models for multi-label classification (Track A), intensity prediction (Track B), and cross-lingual generalization (Track C). Our models achieved strong performance in Russian (Track A: 0.848 F1, Track B: 0.8594 F1) due to emotion-rich pretraining, while Chinese (0.483 F1) and Spanish (0.6848 F1) struggled with intensity estimation. Track C faced significant cross-lingual adaptation issues, with Russian (0.3102 F1), Chinese (0.2992 F1), and Indian (0.2613 F1) highlighting challenges in low-resource settings. Despite these limitations, our findings provide valuable insights into multilingual emotion detection. Future work should enhance cross-lingual representations, address data scarcity, and integrate multimodal information for improved generalization and real-world applicability.
