Bridging Ibero and Latin American NLP communities

Eugenio Martínez Cámara, Luis Chiruzzo, Pablo Gamallo, Rafael Muñoz Guillena, German Rigau


Abstract
LANLP focuses on community-driven resource development and evaluation for Iberian languages, and diverse Latin American languages (including indigenous and minority languages). We aim to bridge regional communities to share initiatives, corpora and tools. LANLP fills this gap, fostering new contacts between Iberian and Latin American NLP research groups. The goals are to (1) highlight challenges in processing these languages, (2) share novel datasets and models, and (3) catalyze future collaborations and shared tasks. We emphasize both academic rigor and community inclusivity, encouraging contributions from established researchers and grassroots language advocates alike.
