New Publication by Archimedes Lead Researcher John Pavlopoulos

A new paper co-authored by John Pavlopoulos from Archimedes Research Unit at the Athena Research Center, Kanella K. Pouliand Maria Gavriilidou from the Institute for Language and Speech Processing (ILSP) at the Athena Research Center, and Juli Bakagianni from the Department of Informatics of the Athens University of Economics & Business (AUEB) has been accepted for publication at Patterns journal.

This paper is titled “A Systematic Survey of Natural Language Processing for the Greek Language” and brief information of the publication can be found below:

In brief: “Many languages remain underrepresented in AI research, limiting the global reach of language technologies. This study introduces a clear, repeatable method for surveying natural language processing (NLP) work in individual languages. When the method is applied to Greek (2012–2023), the survey reveals key trends, gaps, and resource needs— insights that are essential for fairer and more effective language technology. The approach offers a blueprint for mapping NLP progress in other under-resourced languages, helping to build a more inclusive multilingual AI landscape.”

The bigger picture: “Natural language processing (NLP) methods have advanced rapidly, yet research remains centered on English, followed by a handful of well-supported languages, while many others receive only moderate, limited, or no support. This imbalance affects the adaptability of language technologies across diverse linguistic and cultural contexts. Comprehensive monolingual NLP surveys—those covering the full spectrum of NLP tasks—offer a structured way to assess language-specific challenges, resource availability, and methodological trends, yet no standardized framework exists for conducting these surveys. We introduce a generalizable methodology for systematic monolingual NLP surveys, which ensures transparency and reproducibility. The method can be extended to other languages with similar challenges, ultimately contributing to a more inclusive and equitable NLP landscape.”
