CLARIN Intern Lesley Messori Receives Cum Laude for Master’s Dissertation
Messori’s work focuses on systematically organising CLARIN-related concepts into a structured thesaurus. Building on the bilingual flat resource developed during her internship at CLARIN, the objective was to create a versatile multilingual resource that standardises specialised vocabulary and organises domain knowledge within CLARIN. The primary application of the thesaurus is to enhance content retrieval on the CLARIN website through topic annotation. A work-in-progress version is available; the thesaurus will be further developed during a postgraduate internship at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid.
