  1. 1. Multilingual text generation from structured formal representations

    Author : Dana Dannélls; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coherence; computational linguistics; coreference; corpus linguistics discourse structure; knowledge representation; language technology; lexical semantics; linked open data; multilingual natural language generation; natural language processing; ontology; semantic web.;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to identify the optimal ways in which natural language generation techniques can be brought to bear upon the problem of processing a structured body of information in order to devise a coherent presentation of text content in multiple languages. We investigate how chains of referential expressions are realized in English, Swedish and Hebrew, and suggest several coreference strategies that can be used to generate coherent descriptions about paintings.

  2. 2. Interaction and Language Assessment in Aphasia and Dementia : A Comparative Perspective

    Author : Karin Myrberg; Christina Samuelsson; Lars-Christer Hydén; Heidi Hamilton; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Aphasia; Dementia; Assessment; Testing; Interaction; Language; Cognition;

    Abstract : Language problems in dementia resemble the symptoms of aphasia in many respects. A growing body of research discusses the cognitive deficits associated with aphasia. Despite common denominators, very little is written with a comparative perspective on the two clinical groups. READ MORE

  3. 3. Word Representations for Emergent Communication and Natural Language Processing

    Author : Mikael Kågebäck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Extractive summarisation; Emergent communication; Deep reinforcement learning; Natural language processing; Word Representations; Deep learning; Machine learning; Artificial neural networks;

    Abstract : The task of listing all semantic properties of a single word might seem manageable at first but as you unravel all the context dependent subtle variations in meaning that a word can encompass, you soon realize that precise mathematical definition of a word’s semantics is extremely difficult. In analogy, humans have no problem identifying their favorite pet in an image but the task of precisely defining how, is still beyond our capabilities. READ MORE

    Abstract : Mainstream research on reading and writing is based on the assumption, common in modern linguistics, that spoken language is primary to written language in most important respects. Unfortunately, the conceptual framework for the study of language and 'literacy' (encompassing both reading and writing skills) is built around this assumption. READ MORE

    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; language; commmunication; visual context; visual world; pragmatics; ecological validity;

    Abstract : This dissertation is about the role of visual context information in communication. All accounts of language processing and communication agree that visual context is beneficial for understanding. READ MORE
