Analysing the Evolution of Studentsâ Writing Skills and the Impact of Neo-standard Italian with the help of Computational Linguistics
We present a project aimed at studying the evolution of studentsâ writing skills in a temporal span of 15 years (from
2001 to 2016), analysing in particular the impact of neo-standard Italian. More than 2,500 essays have been transcribed and annotated by teachers according to 28 different linguistic traits. We present here the annotation process together with the first
data analysis supported by NLP tools

In questo contesto, piĂč di 2.500 temi sono stati trascritti e annotati da insegnanti, registrando la presenza di 28 diversi tratti linguistici. Il presente studio illustra il processo di annotazione e le prime analisi dei dati con il supporto di strumenti TAL
Tint, the Swiss-Army Tool for Natural Language Processing in Italian
In this we paper present the last version of Tint, an opensource, fast and extendable Natural Language Processing suite for Italian based on Stanford CoreNLP. The new release includes a set of text processing components for fine-grained linguistic analysis, from tokenization to relation extraction, including part-of-speech tagging, morphological analysis, lemmatization, multi-word expression recognition, dependency parsing, named-entity recognition, keyword extraction, and much more. Tint is written in Java freely distributed under the GPL license. Although some modules do not perform at a state-of-the-art level, Tint reaches very good accuracy in all modules, and can be easily used out-of-the-box
Linguistic Profile of a Text and Human Ratings of Writing Quality: a Case Study on Italian L1 Learner Essays
This paper presents a study based on the linguistic profiling methodology to explore the relationship between the linguistic structure of a text and how it is perceived in terms of writing quality by humans. The approach is tested on a selection of Italian L1 learners essays, which were taken from a larger longitudinal corpus of essays written by Italian L1 students enrolled in the first and second year of lower secondary school. Human ratings of writing quality by Italian native speakers were collected through a crowdsourcing task, in which annotators were asked to read pairs of essays and rated which one they believed to be better written. By analyzing these ratings, the study identifies a variety of linguistic phenomena spanning across distinct levels of linguistic description that distinguish the essays considered as âwinnersâ and evaluates the impact of studentsâ errors on the human perception of writing quality

Proceedings of the Fifth Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics CLiC-it 2018 : 10-12 December 2018, Torino
On behalf of the Program Committee, a very warm welcome to the Fifth Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics (CLiC-Ââit 2018). This edition of the conference is held in Torino. The conference is locally organised by the University of Torino and hosted into its prestigious main lecture hall âCavallerizza Realeâ. The CLiC-Ââit conference series is an initiative of the Italian Association for Computational Linguistics (AILC) which, after five years of activity, has clearly established itself as the premier national forum for research and development in the fields of Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing, where leading researchers and practitioners from academia and industry meet to share their research results, experiences, and challenges
