A Comparative Evaluation of Embeddings and LLMs in a Greek Book Publisher Setting - The CUP Dataset
We present CUP, a Greek book retrieval benchmark consisting of 868 catalog records and 104 expert-annotated queries with graded relevance judgments. We evaluate sparse (BM25), dense (sentence-transformers), hybrid, and LLM-assisted retrieval methods in this book-search setting. Multilingual embeddings outperform Greek-specific models, while hybrid retrieval performs best overall. A query-level analysis shows that BM25 excels at named-entity queries, while dense and hybrid methods improve natural-language, noisy, cross-lingual, and concept queries. Field-aware prompting has model-specific effec
slang.gr as a Large-Scale Crowdsourced Resource for Non-Standard Greek
Slang is a central component of everyday language, reflecting linguistic creativity, social identity, and cultural change, yet its dy- namic and non-standard nature makes it difficult to model computationally. We present the first large-scale computational study of slang.gr, a crowdsourced lexicon of Greek non-standard language, combining lexical content, user-generated tags, and interaction data. To enable the systematic analysis, we map noisy folksonomic tags to a structured multi-layer taxonomy capturing both semantic categories and sociolinguistic metadata. Using this representation, we an
