- ItemOpen AccessOverview of FACT at IberLEF 2019: Factuality Analysis and Classification Task(CEUR-WS, 2019) Rosá, Aiala; Castellón Masalles, Irene; Chiruzzo, Luis; Curell i Gotor, Hortènsia; Etcheverry, Mathias; Fernández Montraveta, Ana María; Vázquez García, Glòria; Wonsever, DinaIn this paper we describe the FACT shared task (Factuality Annotation and Classi cation Task), included in the First Iberian Languages Evaluation Forum (IberLEF). Factuality is understood, following, as the category that determines the factual status of events, that is, whether events are presented or not as certain. In order to analyze event references in texts, it is crucial to determine whether they are presented as having taken place or as potential or not accomplished events. This information can be used for different applications like Question Answering, Information Extraction, or Incremental Timeline Construction. Despite its centrality for Natural Language Understanding, this task has been underresearched, with the work by as a reference for English and for Spanish. For Italian, a task similar to FACT has been proposed in the past. The bottleneck to advance on this task has usually been the lack of annotated resources, together with its inherent difficulty. Currently PLN-InCo and GRIAL both have ongoing research projects on this topic, which are producing and will produce such annotated resources. This makes the proposal of this task even more interesting. The main objective of this task is to advance in the study of the factuality of the events mentioned in texts, seeking to contrast different approaches. To accomplish this task a corpus annotated with factuality information is available allowing experimentation with supervised machine learning techniques.
- ItemOpen AccessOverview of FACT at IberLEF 2020: Events Detection and Classification(CEUR-WS, 2020) Rosá, Aiala; Alonso, Laura; Castellón Masalles, Irene; Chiruzzo, Luis; Curell i Gotor, Hortènsia; Fernández Montraveta, Ana María; Góngora, Santiago; Malcuori, Marisa; Vázquez García, Glòria; Wonsever, DinaIn this paper we present the second edition of the FACT shared task (Factuality Annotation and Classification Task), included in IberLEF2020. The main objective of this task is to advance in the study of the factuality of the events mentioned in texts. This year, the FACT task includes a subtask on event identification in addition to the factuality classification subtask. We describe the submitted systems as well as the corpus used, which is the same used in FACT 2019 but extended by adding annotations for nominal events.
- ItemOpen AccessFluency in spontaneous description versus story-reading: Learner performance and views(Université Grenoble-Alpes, 2025) Martin-Rubió, XavierOne potentially effective way to get learners of an additional language to improve their pronunciation is to ask them to record themselves and reflect on their pronunciation outcomes. This pilot pedagogical study explores that approach in the context of a compulsory onesemester phonology course. The participants (N = 45) were first-year English majors of the English Studies degree at a Catalan university. They were asked to record themselves carrying out two different tasks as part of a compulsory phonology course: describing two images and reading a children’s book aloud. Following these tasks, students carried out three activities designed to encourage reflection on their pronunciation: 1) analysing the main fluency measures, 2) selecting three segmental phenomena, and 3) focusing on prosody. The goal of these activities was to get them to reflect on the complexity of the concepts dealt with in the theoretical sessions by seeing the effects of carrying out two very different tasks. Whereas fluency in the first task very much depended on the students’ language levels, other factors, such as their attitudes towards character voicing or pitch modulation, played a more prominent role in the second task.
- ItemOpen AccessDrieu la Rochelle, un visionnaire de l’Union Européenne?(UCOPress. Editorial Universidad de Córdoba, 2026) Solé Castells, CristinaPierre Drieu la Rochelle exprime sa pensée sur l’Europe dans la plupart de ses essais et ses romans. Comme tant d’autres écrivains de son époque, il se pose la question de ce que va devenir l’Europe. Déjà en 1927 Drieu rédige un court essai Mesure de la France, où il ébauche sa pensée à ce sujet. Plus tard, ses essais Le Jeune européen (1927) ou Genève ou Moscou (1928) ainsi que son Journal 1939-1945, parmi d’autres, nous découvrent Drieu la Rochelle comme un précurseur de l’Europe actuelle. « Le temps des patries est passé » a-t-il écrit à plusieurs reprises. Sa conviction de la nécessité d’abolir les frontières entre les différents pays qui composent l’Europe, de la nécessité de leur fédération aussi bien du point de vue économique que politique, son refus des dogmatismes et des « vieilles » idéologies, ont été une constante tout au long de sa vie et de son oeuvre. C’était pour lui la seule voie susceptible de permettre à l’Europe de faire face aux pays les plus puissants. Pourtant, malgré les coïncidences, l’Europe imaginée par Drieu a des particularités souvent difficiles à comprendre, même parfois apparemment contradictoires et éloignés de la réalité, à commencer par la définition même de l’Europe, par son refus de la démocratie comme système de gouvernement, etc. Le but de cet article est d’approfondir dans l’analyse de ces « particularités » et d’en découvrir la « logique » interne dans le contexte de l’entre-deux-guerres et de la Seconde guerre mondiale.
- ItemOpen AccessLinguistic Diversity and Identities: Strategies and Tools for Revitalizing Minority Languages(Ternopil Volodymyr Hnatiuk National Pedagogical University, 2026) Sabaté Carrové, Mariona; Kostiuk, Yuliia; Vàzquez Garcia, MercèIn contemporary academic discourse, the preservation of linguistic diversity is a key challenge amid globalization, as trends toward standardization and the strengthening of major languages increasingly marginalize smaller linguistic communities. Under these conditions, non-dominant and minority languages face increasing risks of marginalization, making it essential to develop a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms that support their maintenance and revitalization. The preservation and promotion of minority languages have become key factors in safeguarding linguistic identity, cultural heritage, and sustaining democratic pluralism.
