| Challenge: | Existing methods to predict minimal age from which text can be understood for children are unresolved in computational linguistics. |
| Approach: | They propose a method which predicts the minimum age from which a text can be understood by a recurrent neural network. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art models at sentence and text levels and achieves mean absolute errors of 1.86 and 2.28. |

| Challenge: | Emotion annotations can be used to analyze content and can be applied to content analysis. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a corpus annotation scheme to annotate three online data sets composed of extremist, sexist and hateful messages respectively. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can provide new insights for content analysis and stronger empirical background for automatic content detection. |

| Challenge: | adequacy of a text’s characteristics with the person’s capacities and knowledge is critical in the case of . a child since her/his cognitive and linguistic skills are still under development. |
| Approach: | They propose a natural language processing task which consists in predicting the age from which a text can be understood by someone. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms psycholinguist models on a French text dataset and shows that the results are more accurate than psycholingual models. |

Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Social platforms play an increasingly important role in the propagation of extremist ideas. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a linguistic annotation scheme to characterize extremist content in French . they validate the scheme and test its ability to capture various aspects of emotions . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method combines sociological and linguistic knowledge to characterize extremist content in French. |
A (Psycho-)Linguistically Motivated Scheme for Annotating and Exploring Emotions in a Genre-Diverse Corpus (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Using a linguistic perspective, emotion annotation is considered a difficult task because of the lack of consensus on emotional categories, the fuzziness of boundaries between them or the great variability of emotion expressions types. |
| Approach: | They propose a scheme for emotion annotation and its manual application on a genre-diverse corpus of texts written in french. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method clarifies the main concepts implied by the analysis of emotions as they are expressed in texts and performs a manual annotation campaign on a corpus of 1,594 texts (ca. 515K tokens) of different genres. |
