SuperLim: a Swedish GLUE

26 May: SuperLim: a Swedish GLUE (General Language Understanding Benchmark)
- Magnus Sahlgren at RISE; Aleksandrs Berdicevskis, Yvonne Adesam, Gerlof Bouma, Dana Dannélls at Språkbanken, Gothenburg University

This seminar presents the outcome of the SuperLim project, which provides the first General Language Understanding Benchmark (GLUE) for Swedish. The test collection covers various aspects of language understanding, including reading comprehension, inference and entailment, coreference, sentiment analysis, lexical semantics, and word sense disambiguation. The presentation provides details on the various test sets, and we also discuss future development of the benchmark.

Link to the pre-release version of SuperLim: https://spraakbanken.gu.se/resurser/superlim>. Feel free to use it, but bear in mind that many datasets are not yet complete, the documentation is missing, some things may be changed soon. We hope to release Version 1.0 in June 2021.

By practitioners, for practitioners

This is a bi-weekly webinar series for people who work with, or are interested in, NLP. The idea is to provide a platform for both academic researchers and industry practitioners to present, listen to, and discuss recent work in NLP. The main focus of the webinars is NLP development in Sweden and for the Swedish language, but international breakthroughs may also be discussed. 

Each webinar features an initial 45-minute presentation that covers recent work that in some sense is relevant for Swedish NLP, followed by 45 minutes of discussion.

Time: Wednesdays odd weeks 14:00-15:30
