Don't miss the opportunity to take part in interesting and exciting events.

Held online on February 7-9, 2022 and opened by French Minister of Culture Roselyne Bachelot-Narquin, the Forum "Innovation, Technologies and Multilingualism" brought together French and European policy-makers, practitioners and stakeholders in the fields of translation, language technology, digital technology, and artificial intelligence with the objective to address the role technologies can play to support and foster multilingualism in Europe.

Many information and communication needs of our society can benefit from advanced language technologies, notably those based on deep learning. Documents and other textual data need to be maximally accessible to citizens across the EU, requiring them to be available in a multitude of languages. One challenge in this respect is that organisations have to process their documents in a way that individuals described in them cannot be identified anymore, i.e. to remove personal identifiable data, in order to be able to store and share these documents in a GDPR-compliant way (respecting the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation). Given the scale at which information is produced in various domains, deidentification efforts should be supported by tools that automate a part of the process and provide their results for review to domain experts.

On 31 March, we will put a spotlight on Large Language Models, Low-resource NMT, and Multimodal Language Data all over Europe, talk about the upcoming Language Data Space and present the latest achievements and plans of ELRC.
