2. 1. Professionally Speaking - The prosodic and discourse structure of professional monologue in English

   Author : Bryan D C Mosey; Engelska; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; paragraph; paratone; referential continuities; theme; discourse topic; fundamental frequency; finality; nucleus; accent; pause; speech-rate; tone-unit; discourse analysis; intonation; prosody; monologue; speech; spoken English; corpus; neural network; English language and literature; Engelska språk och litteratur ;

   Abstract : This thesis combines corpus-based, experimental and instrumental methods to investigate how professional speakers of English use prosody to signal important textual boundaries above the sentence level. In an initial study, prosodic features included in the transcriptions of the Spoken English Corpus, or readily derivable from these, are investigated. READ MORE

4. 2. Gender and representation : investigations of bias in natural language processing

   Author : Hannah Devinney; Henrik Björklund; Jenny Björklund; Christian Hardmeier; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NLP; natural language processing; gender bias; social impact of AI; gendered pronouns; neopronouns; gender studies; topic modeling; Computer Science; datalogi; computational linguistics; datorlingvistik; genusvetenskap; gender studies;

   Abstract : Natural Language Processing (NLP) technologies are a part of our every day realities. They come in forms we can easily see as ‘language technologies’ (auto-correct, translation services, search results) as well as those that fly under our radar (social media algorithms, 'suggested reading' recommendations on news sites, spam filters).

5. 3. Graph Algorithms for Large-Scale and Dynamic Natural Language Processing

   Author : Kambiz Ghoorchian; Magnus Boman; Magnus Sahlgren; Sumithra Velupillai; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Natural Language Processing; Lexical Disambiguation; Topic Modeling; Representation Learning; Graph Partitioning; Distributed Algorithms; Dimensionality Reduction; Random Indexing; ;

   Abstract : In Natural Language Processing, researchers design and develop algorithms to enable machines to understand and analyze human language. These algorithms benefit multiple downstream applications including sentiment analysis, automatic translation, automatic question answering, and text summarization. READ MORE

6. 4. Dead-Time Compensation and Performance Monitoring in Process Control

   Author : Ari Ingimundarson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; robotteknik; Automatiska system; reglerteknik; Automation; robotics; control engineering;

   Abstract : The thesis contains two parts, dead-time compensation and performance monitoring. The first part on dead-time compensation is about robust tuning procedures for dead-time compensating controllers (DTC). Both stable and integrating processes are considered. READ MORE

7. 5. Device Technology Based on High Temperature Superconductors and Microwave Breakdown in Gases

   Author : Martin Löfgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; distortion; penetration depth; surface resistance; transmit-receive switch; coupled-grain model; high-power; microwave; pulse; surface impedance; breakdown; propagation; modulator; air; superconductor; transmission line; resonator; coplanar waveguide; plasma;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with two separate fields of microwave technology. The first section treats microwave characterization and applications of high temperature superconducting (HTS) thin films, while the second section treats microwave breakdown in transmit-receive (TR) switches and in air. Within the first section, four main topics are adressed. READ MORE
