• Abstract: This project explores the application of Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to analyse United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) speeches. Using NLP allows for the efficient processing and analysis of large volumes of textual data, enabling the extraction of semantic patterns, sentiment analysis, and topic modelling. Our goal is to deliver a comprehensive dataset and a tool (interface with descriptive statistics and automatically extracted topics) from which political scientists can derive insights into international relations and have the opportunity to have a nuanced understanding of global diplomatic discourse.

  State-of-the-art natural language processing (NLP) models are trained on massive training corpora, and report a superlative performance on evaluation datasets. This survey delves into an important attribute of these datasets: the dialect of a language. Motivated by the performance degradation of NLP models for dialectic datasets and its implications for the equity of language technologies, we survey past research in NLP for dialects in terms of datasets, and approaches.
