  2. 2. Contributions to Shallow Discourse Parsing : To English and beyond

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; discourse; discourse relations; shallow discourse parsing; transfer learning; multilinguality; low-resource nlp; Linguistics; lingvistik;

    Abstract : Discourse is a coherent set of sentences where the sequential reading of the sentences yields a sense of accumulation and readers can easily follow why one sentence follows another. A text that lacks coherence will most certainly fail to communicate its intended message and leave the reader puzzled as to why the sentences are presented together. READ MORE

  5. 5. Articulation Rate and Surprisal in Swedish Child-Directed Speech

    Author : Johan Sjons; Mats Wirén; Robert Östling; Iris-Corinna Schwarz; Francisco Lacerda; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; articulation rate; information-theoretic surprisal; child-directed speech; final lengthening; spontaneous; longitudinal;

    Abstract : Child-directed speech (CDS) differs from adult-directed speech (ADS) in several respects whose possible facilitating effects for language acquisition are still being studied. One such difference concerns articulation rate --- the number of linguistic units by the number of time units, excluding pauses --- which has been shown to be generally lower than in ADS. READ MORE
