The aim of this paper is to apply a corpus-based methodology, based on the measure of perplexity, to automatically calculate the cross-lingual language distance between historical periods of three languages. The three historical corpora have been constructed and collected with the closest spelling to the original on a balanced basis of fiction and non-fiction.

In this paper we present a relation extraction system that given a text extracts pedagogically motivated relation types, as a previousstep to obtaining a semantic representation of the text which will make possible to automatically generate questions for reading comprehension. The system maps pedagogically motivated relations with relations from ConceptNet and deploys Distant Supervisionfor relation extraction. We run a study on a subset of those relationships in order to analyse the viability of our approach.

The combination of visual and textual representations has produced excellent results in tasks such as image captioning and visual question answering, but the inference capabilities of multimodal representations are largely untested. In the case of textual representations, inference tasks such as Textual Entailment and Semantic Textual Similarity have been often used to benchmark the quality of textual representations. The long term goal of our research is to devise multimodal representation techniques that improve current inference capabilities.

Humanitateen eraberritzea gertatu omen da eHumanitateetan edota Humanitate Digitaletan. Hasierako garaietako asmoak eta promesak, batetik, eta objektibotasuna, bestetik, ekarri dutena ikusi ondoren, galdera ezberdinak sortu dira Humanitate Digitaletan.

Aurkari eta kontrako asko ditu teknologiak oraindik orain hezkuntzan; horrez gain, oraindik egiteko asko dago eta era anitzeko arazo ugari dakarzkio. Eta hala ere, azken urteotan izandako teknologiaren garapenak ia guztion eguneroko bizimoduan era guztietako aldaketak eragin ditu: lanean, aisialdian, hedabideetan, salerosketetan eta komunikazioan, besteak beste. Hezkuntza aldaketa horietatik aparte izan ez bada ere eta gaur egun irakaspraktika ugarik teknologiaren beharra badu ere, orain da unea ikuspuntu kritiko batetik teknologiak eta hezkuntzak bat egiteko.
