Zusammenfassung

This paper presents FLARES, a shared task organised in the framework of the evaluation campaign of Natural Language Processing systems in Spanish and other Iberian languages, IberLEF 2024. FLARES aims to detect patterns of reliability in the language used in news that will allow the development of effective techniques for the future detection of misleading information. To this end, the 5W1H journalistic technique for detecting the relevant content of a news item is proposed as a basis, as well as an annotation guideline designed to detect linguistic reliability. Two subtasks are proposed: the first focusing on the identification of the 5W1H elements and the second focusing on the detection of reliability. A total of 7 participants registered in the shared task, of which 3 participated in the first subtask and 4 in the second. The teams proposed various approaches, especially based on fine-tuning of encoding models and adjustment of instructions in decoding models.
