description In this study, a systematic literature review was conducted to examine the significant works in the literature on low-resource neural machine translation. Within the scope of the study, three research questions were identified to examine the low-resource neural machine translation literature. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 45 studies were selected for review. After the relevant studies were identified, three research questions were aimed to be answered. The first research question is to identify the study directions and language pairs used in low-resource neural machine translation. The second research question aims to identify which deep learning methods are used in low-resource neural machine translation and which metrics are used to evaluate these methods. The third research question is to determine the bilingual and monolingual corpora used in the studies and the preferred development environments. In addition, the studies with the most commonly used language pairs were analyzed, and directions for future studies were made.
