We have launched a new webpage highlighting current research activities related to large language models (LLMs) in Slovenia, created in the context of our membership in the CLARIN ERIC LLMs4SSH Knowledge Centre.

The site brings together essential information on key projects focusing on LLMs in Slovenia, existing benchmarks for LLMs in Slovenian, benchmarks and datasets for LLM evaluation in South Slavic and other languages provided by the CLASSLA K-Centre, and the openly-available large language models and other language technologies for Slovenian.

We are pleased to announce that the CLARIN.SI repository has been recertified with CoreTrustSeal certificate, which confirms its trustworthiness as a data repository and its compliance with international standards for research data management.

Further information can be found in the certification document.
