The "Right" Discourse on Migration: Analysing Migration-Related Tweets in Right and Far-Right Political Movements
Chatterjee, Nishan, Bajt, Veronika, Vitez, Ana Zwitter, Pollak, Senja
The rise of right-wing populism in Europe has brought to the forefront the significance of analysing social media discourse to understand the dissemination of extremist ideologies and their impact on political outcomes. Twitter, as a platform for interaction and mobilisation, provides a unique window into the everyday communication of far-right supporters. In this paper, we propose a methodology that uses state-of-the-art natural language processing techniques with sociological insights to analyse the MIGR-TWIT corpus of far-right tweets in English and French. We aim to uncover patterns of discourse surrounding migration, hate speech, and persuasion techniques employed by right and far-right actors. By integrating linguistic, sociological, and computational approaches, we seek to offer cross-disciplinary insights into societal dynamics and contribute to a better understanding of contemporary challenges posed by right-wing extremism on social media platforms.

Segmentation en phrases : ouvrez les guillemets sans perdre le fil
Ollinger, Sandrine, Maurel, Denis
This paper presents a graph cascade for sentence segmentation of XML documents. Our proposal offers sentences inside sentences for cases introduced by quotation marks and hyphens, and also pays particular attention to situations involving incises introduced by parentheses and lists introduced by colons. We present how the tool works and compare the results obtained with those available in 2019 on the same dataset, together with an evaluation of the system's performance on a test corpus.

Le sens de la famille : analyse du vocabulaire de la parent{\'e} par les plongements de mots
Tanguy, Ludovic, Fabre, Cécile, Hathout, Nabil, Ho-Dac, Lydia-Mai
In this study, we propose a corpus analysis of an area of the French lexicon that is both dense and highly structured: the vocabulary of family relationships. Starting with a lexicon of 25 nouns designating the main relationships (son, cousin, mother, grandfather, sister-in-law etc.), we examine how these terms are positioned in relation to each other through distributional analyses based on the use of these terms in corpora. We show that distributional information can capture certain features that organize this vocabulary (descent, alliance, siblings, genre), in ways that vary according to the different corpora compared.

D\'eveloppement automatique de lexiques pour les concepts \'emergents : une exploration m\'ethodologique
Kyriakoglou, Revekka, Pappa, Anna, He, Jilin, Schoen, Antoine, Laurens, Patricia, Vartampetian, Markarit, Laredo, Philippe, Kyriacopoulou, Tita
This paper presents the development of a lexicon centered on emerging concepts, focusing on non-technological innovation. It introduces a four-step methodology that combines human expertise, statistical analysis, and machine learning techniques to establish a model that can be generalized across multiple domains. This process includes the creation of a thematic corpus, the development of a Gold Standard Lexicon, annotation and preparation of a training corpus, and finally, the implementation of learning models to identify new terms. The results demonstrate the robustness and relevance of our approach, highlighting its adaptability to various contexts and its contribution to lexical research. The developed methodology promises applicability in conceptual fields.
