This study investigates the effectiveness of various data augmentation techniques for a multi-label emotion classification task using a low-resource dataset. The goal is to improve the performance of machine learning models by increasing the available training data. The authors evaluate different approaches, including autoencoder-based methods and Back Translation. They find that Back Translation outperforms autoencoder-based approaches and that generating multiple examples per training instance leads to further improvement. Additionally, they discover that Back Translation generates a more diverse set of unigrams and trigrams.

In this study, researchers tried to make machine learning models better by adding more data to train them. They used different methods to create fake data that looks like the real thing. One method, called Back Translation, worked best. This means it can help us build better models even when we don’t have much data.
