1. **[FinSentiA: Sentiment Analysis in English Financial Microblogs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/gaillat-2018-finsentia-sentiment-analysis-english-financial/)** *(2018 · 8 citations)* The paper targets investor sentiment in English financial microblogs, a domain where most prior work assigned labels to whole sentences or documents, or scored only text spans that had already been isolated by hand.
2. **[Fine-tuning Neural Language Models for Multidimensional Opinion Mining of English-Maltese Social Data](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/cortis-2021-fine-tuning-neural-language-models/)** *(2021 · 2 citations)* The paper builds benchmark classifiers for social opinion mining on online comments about Malta's annual Government Budget.
3. **[LLM Multi-Agent Systems for Long Triple Set Data-to-Text Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/osuji-2026-llm-multi-agent-systems-long/)** *(2026)* Most data-to-text (D2T) benchmarks pair short inputs with outputs of a few dozen tokens. As a result, it is unclear how LLMs handle large structured inputs, where single-pass generation tends to omit or invent facts. The authors build a new dataset of 669 DBpedia triple sets, each with 8 to 199 triples, drawn from…
4. **[Quality and Appropriateness of Large Text Datasets for Irish NLP](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/walsh-2026-quality-appropriateness-large-text-datasets/)** *(2026)* Irish is an official EU language but remains under-resourced. Most Irish text available for training NLP models comes from large, automatically assembled web corpora, and their quality has rarely been checked. Authors from the ADAPT Centre (Dublin City University) audit 14 such resources. These are the Irish portions…
5. **[Baseline English and Maltese-English Classification Models for Subjectivity Detection, Sentiment Analysis, Emotion Analysis, Sarcasm Detection, and Irony Detection](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/cortis-2022-baseline-english-maltese-english-classification/)** *(2022)* The paper sets reference points for opinion classification in a small, imbalanced setting where a low-resourced language is mixed with English.
