Everything is political and everything is human, including the availability of data. Amazing insights today from Masakhane at the Open NLP Workshop GoURMET. I loved the art on the slides, too!

Good morning :-) Day #2 of GoURMET talks about low-resource language. Today is all about ideation (don't miss the presentation pitch at 3 pm CEST!), Transfer learning and Societal Impacts. Drop in! More linkedin.com/feed/update/ur… #NLProc #bias #accessibility #ideation #inclusion

Want to get to know some European projects and platforms pushing #machinetranslation boundaries with #NLP and #BigData, including SELMA and monitio_project? Join the GoURMET today at 3:30 CEST! #summarization #NER #speechsynthesis More: gourmet-project.eu/open-workshop-…

Final day of GoURMET focuses on #machinetranslation readiness and #benchmarking; innovative applications and a closer look at EU projects incl. EBU Tech News Pilot. Join us at 1400 CET using the link below gourmet-project.eu/open-workshop-…

You wonder what the other languages are, that we work on. Here are all 12 of them: Amharic, Bulgarian, Gujarati, Hausa, Igbo, Kyrgyz, Macedonian, Pashto, Serbian, Swahili, Tamil, Tigrinya and Turkish. Find out more: gourmet-project.eu/project-output…

Mainstream machine translation tools can struggle to translate some languages. So we work with GoURMET to improve the accuracy in languages like Serbian and Swahili. We used GoURMET in our new dashboard of translated BBC stories. bbcnewslabs.co.uk/projects/Frank/
