Manual coding under the Comparative Agendas Project (CAP) scheme is slow, and existing resources cover few countries and short periods. The authors address this with ParlaCAP, a resource built on the ParlaMint corpora… 4. **[Charting the European LLM Benchmarking Landscape: A New Taxonomy and Registry](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/vintar-2026-charting-european-llm-benchmarking-landscape/)** *(2026)* Evaluation of large language models is still heavily English-centric. The common workaround is machine-translating English benchmarks, but this carries over Western cultural assumptions and misses phenomena specific to individual languages. Native single-language suites avoid that problem but rarely allow… ## Co-authors here 3 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Nikola Ljubešić](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/nikola-ljubesic/) ×4 - [Peter Rupnik](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/peter-rupnik/) ×3 - [Ivan Porupski](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ivan-porupski/) ×2 ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Shaping Multilingual, Multimodal AI for the Social Sciences and Humanities @ LREC](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/llms4ssh/) ×2: [Shaping Multilingual, Multimodal AI for the Social Sciences and Humanities @ LREC 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/llms4ssh/2026/) ×2 - [Language Resources and Evaluation Conference (LREC)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/lrec/): [LREC 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/lrec/2026/) - [Workshop on Natural Language Processing for Political Sciences](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/politicalnlp/): [Workshop on Natural Language Processing for Political Sciences 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/politicalnlp/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 3 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [3 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/taja-kuzman-pungersek/cited-by/).
