easyRights tackles two major challenges to successful immigrant integration. (1) Physica<\/strong>l – simplifying the complexities of international, national and local norms that differentiate its mechanisms across the countries; and (2) Social<\/strong> – we aim to change the diffuse, albeit wrong, feeling that immigrants have about themselves as \u2018illegal citizens\u2019 that acts as impediment to the full exercise of their acknowledged and endorsed rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We will achieve this aim through 5 main objectives below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Improving language skills will be done by expanding the web\u00ad based CALST<\/a> platform, which was originally developed at NTNU, which is focused on tailored pronunciation training (listening, speaking and writing). The CALST platform is currently available for British English and Norwegian dialects. The remaining languages needed for the pilots (i.e. Greek, Italian and Spanish) will be added during the project. In combination with CALST, the NTNU spin\u00adoff company Capeesh<\/a> also a member in the consortium, has added a specific focus and features on personalized vocabulary learning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Enhancing the effectiveness of communication and thus, the immigrants\u2019 understanding of their fundamental rights, irrespective of legal status, will be supported on the easyRights platform by a multilingual Natural Language Understanding (NLU) system. This module aims to overcome the communication problems proffered by most complex government \u00adled welcome portals through the implementation of state of the art AI and machine reading capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Integration of Amazon\u2019s Alexa Skills Kit (ASK), enables the creation of personalized service experiences via the exploitation of voice recognition and Natural Language Processing tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To pave the way for co-creation on the platform (e.g. through hackathons), easyRights will deliver both a Mediation Grammar \u00admodule, and a semantic model representing the classes of migrants withcontext data \u00adand a Recommender System which is a personalization and contextualization service based on collaborative, content \u00adbased filtering and user\u2019s path dependency. The combination of these tools will create a fertile knowledge base for co-creation to deliver cross-border applications and tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both the Mediation Grammar and the Recommender System will be \u201cfed\u201d by a preliminary activity of mapping, disintegration and reconstruction of the key administrative rules and procedures that facilitate immigrants\u2019 access to welfare services and enable them to exercise their civil rights, while adopting the point of view (and the language) of prospective beneficiaries. This activity will be facilitated by the NLU system deployed and tested in the four pilots, which will be the early users of the system itself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Aims & Ambition easyRights tackles two major challenges to successful immigrant integration.
