As a result, evaluations of European Portuguese (pt-PT) are often skewed or rely on machine-translated English material, which cannot capture rhyme, wordplay or idioms. ALBA is a generation-oriented benchmark written natively… 2. **[AMALIA: A Fully Open Large Language Model for European Portuguese](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/simplicio-2026-amalia-fully-open-large-language/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Open LLMs are trained mostly on English, and European Portuguese (pt-PT) gets little attention. Its evaluation also tends to use machine-translated benchmarks that miss the variety's linguistic and cultural traits, and models often drift toward Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR). AMALIA addresses this as a fully open model… ## Co-authors here 12 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Diogo Tavares](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/diogo-tavares/) ×2 - [Inês Calvo](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ines-calvo/) ×2 - [Inês Vieira](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ines-vieira/) ×2 - [Rafael Ferreira](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/rafael-ferreira/) ×2 - [Afonso Simplício](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/afonso-simplicio/) - [David Semedo](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/david-semedo/) - [Diogo Glória-Silva](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/diogo-gloria-silva/) - [Duarte M.
