Check out our medium post about the Vital Strategies + FrameNet Brasil partnership on using data linkage and semantic analysis for identifying territories prone to experiencing an increase in Gender Based Violence. So very proud of this amazing partnership!

The great Mark Turner closing ufjf’s Linguistics Summerschool on AI, Cognition, and Multimodal Comm. with some historic blends from back when electricity was invented!
Glad to be undergoing this research stay at FrameNet Brasil Global FrameNet Big thanks to Tiago Torrent!

The ReINVenTA team just got two papers accepted for LREC COLING 2024! One of them presents Frame2, a FrameNet-based multimodal dataset for tackling text-image interactions in video comprising 10 episodes of a TV travel series annotated for frames, frame elements and entities.

According to Microsoft Designer, this is what “a FrameNet capybara wishing everyone a Merry Xmas” looks like! Who am I to argue against that…
Happy holidays, y’all! 🎄

#AI chatbots 🤖 are a hot topic 🔥 But what if we shift the conversation from what they can do with language to what they can do for the Linguist? That’s the topic of our new CUP Linguistics book Copilots for Linguists: AI, Constructions, and Frames.

Can LLM chatbots serve as tools to help linguists do analyses? We reframe the question from whether LLMs can understand language to what they can do for linguists, by proposing scripts for creating prompts and analyzing the outputs generated
