Dr. Monti Datta – Faculty Author Interview
No full textDr. Monti Datta, Assistant Professor of Political Science, discusses his forthcoming new book, Anti-Americanism and the Rise of World Opinion. Drawing from a wealth of research data, interviews and surveys of social media, this book directly examines pro- and anti-American views and asks what we can learn about the nature and impact of world opinion. By treating anti-Americanism as a case study of public opinion at work, Professor Datta reveals how we can better understand the relationship between global citizens and their political leaders, and concludes that anti-Americanism does in fact substantially impact US security, as well as its economic and political interests
Lexicografía, traducción y terminología: relaciones a partir de Della Geometria di Orontio Fineo tradotte da Cosimo Bartoli (Venetia, 1587)
No full textThe mathematical books composed by the French mathematician Oronce Finé gained a great prestige in the sixteenth century, as evidenced by the translations of his work about Geometry, Optics, Geography and Astronomy, Protomathesis: Opus varium. Now, our interest is focused on Della Geometria, the second book of Opere di Orontio Fineo del Delfinato, divise in cinque parti, translated by Cosimo Bartoli (Venetia, Francesco Franceschi Senese, 1587). We carry out a terminological study to compare both works, the source text and this Italian translation. This analysis allows us to examine the processes of lexical convergence which are characteristic in this lexicon of Greco- Roman origin, on the one hand, and to study the formal and the semantic neologisms in this specific field, on the other. Finally, we will verify the use of the same mechanisms to disseminate this technical vocabulary, both in Latin and Italian.Los libros matemáticos compuestos por el matemático francés Oronce Finé gozaron de una importante difusión en el siglo XVI, como evidencian las traducciones de su obra sobre geometría, óptica, geografía y astronomía: Protomathesis.

Premessa
No full textIl volume raccoglie i risultati di una ricerca del CREI dell'Università Roma Tre sulla "Legge di Stabilità e la politica economica in Italia" svolta da Carmela D'Apice, Maurizio Franzini, Cosimo Magazzino, Salvatore Monni, Alessandro Petretto, Gian Cesare Romagnoli e Gaetana Trupiano.
La Legge di Stabilità ha sostituito la Legge Finanziaria dal 2010, all'inizio della crisi dei debiti sovrani europei. Nel 2011 il governo di Mario Monti ha dovuto affrontare sfide molto difficili: uno spread tra Bund tedeschi e Btp italiani decennali oltre i 500 punti base, il terzo rapporto debito pubblico/Pil del mondo, i vincoli di finanza pubblica dettati dalla nuova governance europea, la pressione da parte delle agenzie di rating su titoli di stato e sistema bancario, una crisi di produttività ultra-decennale, un'evasione fiscale endemica e una instabilità politica di fondo. La stella polare dell'esecutivo è stata quella di raccogliere la dura sfida del consolidamento dei conti pubblici nonostante una recessione persistente e una disoccupazione giovanile inaccettabile. Ma gli strumenti scelti per cercare di conseguire gli obiettivi sembrano essere stati, almeno in parte, mal selezionati e discutibili in termini redistributivi. Inoltre, l'austerità voluta dall'esecutivo è stata restrittiva perché si è quasi totalmente concentrata sul versante delle entrate, mentre il contributo al risanamento dei conti pubblici avrebbe dovuto agire su entrambi i fronti, aprendo la strada a un'austerità espansiva, con la riduzione del cuneo fiscale. Anche nella Legge di Stabilità per il 2013, le semplificazioni, le liberalizzazioni, le privatizzazioni, una minore tassazione del lavoro, una riforma delle relazioni finanziarie intergovernative, l'abbandono dell'universalismo delle prestazioni, sono rimasti sullo sfondo. L'auspicio è che il nuovo governo possa trarre utili elementi di riflessione da questa ricerca
Proceedings of the LREC 2020 workshop on Resources and Techniques for User and Author Profiling in Abusive Language (ResT-UP 2020)
No full textThis volume documents the Proceedings of the 1st Workshop on Resources and Techniques for User and Author Profiling in Abusive Language (ResT-UP), held online on 12 May 2020 as part of the LREC 2020 conference (International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation).
The workshop aimed at bringing together researchers and scholars working on author profiling and automatic detection of abusive language on the Web, e.g., cyberbullying or hate speech, with a twofold objective: improving the existing LRs, e.g., datasets, corpora, lexicons, and sharing ideas on stylometry techniques and features needed for profile information extraction and classification. ResT-UP targeted Profiling scholars and research groups, experts in Statistic and Stylistic Analysis of texts as well as computational linguists who investigate author profile and personality both in short texts (social media posts, blog texts and email) and in long texts (such as pamphlets, (fake) news and political documents). ReST-UP represented an opportunity to share profiling experiments with the scientific community and to show automatic detection techniques of abusive language on the Web. Despite the cancellation of LREC 2020 due to the COVID-19 international emergency, ResT-UP was organized online on Microsoft Teams on May 12th 2020 and the programme included three oral presentations and featured an invited talk by Paolo Rosso. ResT-UP was attended by about fifty representatives of academic and industrial organisations

Electronic Dictionaries for Information Retrieval, Automatic Textual Analysis and Semantic-Based Data Mining Software
No full textToday Lexicon-Grammar (LG) remains one of the most consistent
Natural Language Processing (NLP) approaches, especially for
Semantic-Based Data Mining (SBDM) and Semantic Web. Its main goal
is to describe all mechanisms of word combinations closely related to the
concrete use of lexical units and to sentence creation. Also, it gives an
exhaustive description of lexical and syntactic structures of several
languages. LG was set up by the French linguist Maurice Gross during
the ‘60s, and subsequently developed for and applied to Italian by
Annibale Elia, Emilio D’Agostino and Maurizio Martinelli. Its
theoretical approach is prevalently based on Zelig Sabbettai Harris’
Operator-Argument Grammar, which assumes that each human language
is a self-organizing system, and that the syntactic and semantic properties
of a given word may be calculated on the basis of the relationships this
word has with all other co-occurring words inside given sentence
contexts. Simple sentences2 are the minimal linguistic meaning structures
upon which LG founds its studies on natural language syntactic features.
In the last twenty years, LG has also reached important results in the
domain of automatic textual analysis and parsing with NLP-oriented
software such as INTEX3, UNITEX4, and more recently NOOJ5.

paragraphs 3.1 and 4. Federica Marano is author of paragraphs 3.2 and 4.3. Johanna
Monti is author of sections 1 and 2. Antonella Napoli is author of paragraph 4.2.
2 In LG, a simple sentence is formed by a unique predicative element (a verb, but
also a name or an adjective) plus all the necessary arguments it selects to achieve
acceptability and grammaticality. The study of simple sentences is completed analyzing
the rules of co-occurrence and selection restriction, which are distributional and
transformational rules based on predicate syntactic-semantic properties.

CLiC-it 2020 - Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics 2020 - Proceedings of the Seventh Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics
No full textOn behalf of the Program Committee, a very warm welcome to the Seventh Italian Conference on
Computational Linguistics (CLiC-it 2020). This edition of the conference is held in Bologna and
organised by the University of Bologna. The CLiC-it conference series is an initiative of the Italian
Association for Computational Linguistics (AILC) which, after six years of activity, has clearly
established itself as the premier national forum for research and development in the fields of
Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing, where leading researchers and
practitioners from academia and industry meet to share their research results, experiences, and
challenges.
This year CLiC-it received 80 submissions against 64 submissions in 2015, 69 in 2016, 72 in
2017, 70 in 2018 and 82 in 2019 confirming the increasing trend of the past years. The
Programme Committee worked very hard to ensure that every paper received at least three
careful and fair reviews. This process finally led to the acceptance of 19 papers for oral
presentation and 53 papers for poster presentation, with a global acceptance rate of 90%
motivated by the inclusive spirit of the conference. The conference is also receiving considerable
attention from the international community, with 17 (21%) submissions showing at least one
author affiliated to a foreign institution. Regardless of the format of presentation, all accepted
papers are allocated 5 or 6 pages plus 2 pages for references in the proceedings, available as
open access publication. In line with previous editions, the conference is organised around
thematic areas managed by one or two area chairs per area.
In addition to the technical programme, this year we are honoured to have as invited speakers
internationally recognised researchers as Veronique Hoste (Ghent University) and Stefan Kopp
(Bielefeld University). We are very grateful to Veronique and Stefan for agreeing to share with
the Italian community their knowledge and expertise on key topics in Computational Linguistics
