| Challenge: | Using the Web, we propose a corpus for information extraction and text classification. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a corpus for information extraction and natural language processing (NLP) tasks such as text classification. |
| Outcome: | The proposed corpus can be used for information extraction and natural language processing tasks such as text classification. |

| Challenge: | a comparative study of multilingual text classification models analyzes the performance of different models based on different languages . low-resource languages are highly influenced by typology of the languages on which the models have been trained or fine-tuned but also by their size. |
| Approach: | They compare machine and deep learning models with a dataset of epidemiological news articles . they find that the performance of the models is proportionate to the training data size . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baseline models on a multilingual text classification task . low-resource languages are highly influenced by typology of languages and their size . |
