Voices of ELRC
COVID-19 initiative
This collaborative community initiative consists in collecting Language Resources and Language Tools to support the development of applications and services in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. The initiative covers all non commercial research activities in various domains such as NLP, social sciences and humanities.
Two major actions are contemplated:
-
collect Language Resources that can be used to train and/or assess Language Technology tools. The resources will be made available to all under the most permissive license for non-commercial research
-
collect tools that can be used to process information from various sources, including translation, extraction or support to fake news detection. The objective here is to assess the performance of such tools. Right holders of these tools will be encouraged to make them available for integration in non-commercial applications to serve the community at large during these difficult circumstances.
