Language-centered AI will allow additional EU official languages for 2025

Diversity is socially beneficial, and therefore, language diversity too. Then, why not grant the official status to more languages at European level? In 2021, the costs associated with it are no longer an excuse. The potential of the new generation of machine translation, voice synthesis and voice recognition applications, which are getting readily available even for under-resourced languages like Basque, will allow Europe to promote and integrate more and more of its languages, and with it, its citizens.

Towards Zero-Shot Cross-Lingual Named Entity Disambiguation

In cross-Lingual Named Entity Disambiguation (XNED) the task is to link Named Entity mentions in text in some native language to English entities in a knowledge graph. XNED systems usually require training data for each native language, limiting their application for low resource languages with small amounts of training data.

Cross-lingual semantic annotation of Biomedical literature: experiments in Spanish and English

Biomedical literature is one of the most relevant sources of information for knowledge mining in the field of Bioinformatics. In spite of English being the most widely addressed language in the field; in recent years, there has been a growing interest from the natural language processing community in dealing with languages other than English. However, the availability of language resources and tools for appropriate treatment of non-English texts is lacking behind.

Discourse Relation Parsing and Treebanking (DISRPT)

Study of coherence relations in frameworks such as RST (Mann & Thompson 1988), SDRT (Asher & Lascarides 2003) and PDTB (Miltsakaki et al. 2004), has experienced a revival in the last few years, in English and many other languages (Matthiessen & Teruya 2015; Maziero et al. 2015; da Cunha 2016; Iruskieta et al. 2016; Zeldes 2016, 2017). Multiple sites are now actively engaged in the development of discourse parsers (Feng and Hirst 2014; Joty et al. 2015; Surdeanu et al. 2015; Xue 2016; Braud et al.

Humanitate digitalak: aukerak, erakundeen rol berriak eta elkarlana

Era ezberdinetako datu digitalen kudeaketak paradigma aldaketa ekarri du diziplina ezberdinetan, baina baita ere eragile sozial eta kulturaletan. Egun, gero eta aukera gehiago dago kudeatzeko jendartean sortzen diren datuak errealitateko esparru anitzetan (giza-jarduerak, klikak, testuak, irudiak eta soinuak, besteak beste) eta kantitate handiagoetan (big data), Konputazio Zientziei esker.

CODI-DISRPT 2021: Shared Task on Discourse Processing across Formalisms

Call for participation: DISRPT 2021 - Shared Task on Discourse Relation Parsing and Treebanking In conjunction with CODI 2021, EMNLP 2021 - 10-11 Nov. 2021 This year, we are organizing DISRPT 2021 as a shared task on discourse processing across formalisms, for a variety of languages and genres. It is the second iteration of a cross-formalism shared task on discourse analysis, with three subtasks this year: * Task 1: discourse segmentation, * Task 2: connective identification * Task 3: relation classification.
