    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).

    Abstract : The research reported in this study takes both a general descriptive approach - investigating the characteristics of 48 job interviews - and a comparative one - analyzing ways in which those who got a job offer differed from those who did not. Data used in this study are tape recordings of job interviews with applicants for trainee-positions with a large Swedish business corporation. READ MORE

  5. 18. The meaning(s) of inclusion in mathematics in student talk : Inclusion as a topic when students talk about learning and teaching in mathematics

    Author : Helena Roos; Despina Potari; Hanna Palmér; Nùria Planas; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; inclusion in mathematics; discourse analysis; students meaning s ; Matematikens didaktik; Mathematics education; Mathematical Education;

    Abstract : This thesis contributes to research and practice within the field of special education in mathematics with more knowledge about, and an understanding of, students´ meaning(s) of inclusion in mathematics education. Three research questions guide the study: What meaning(s) is/are ascribed, and how is inclusion used, in mathematics education research? What meaning(s) do the students ascribe to inclusion in mathematics learning and teaching? And what frames students´ meaning(s) of inclusion in mathematics learning and teaching?The first part of this study began with a systematic literature review on the notion of inclusion in mathematics education research, and the search resulted in 1,296 research studies.

  6. 19. Exploring technologies for service provision in automotive winter testing

    Author : Mikael Nybacka; Luleå University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Fordon blir allt mer komplexa med antisladdsystem (ESP), antispinnsystem (TCS), låsningsfria bromsar (ABS) och rundslagningsskydd (ARP) och alla dessa är olika kontrollsystem som måste interagera med varandra för att prestera bra under körning. Därför är tester av dessa system och fordonet av största vikt för att säkerställa att komponenterna och systemen i fordonet fungerar felfritt. READ MORE

  7. 20. Alternating Coding and its Decoder Architectures for Unary-Prefixed Codes

    Author : Shang Xue; Bengt Oelmann; Jukka Teuhola; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; Elektronik;

    Abstract : The entropy coding of high peak, heavy-tailed probability distributions such as the Laplacian, Cauchy, and generalized Gaussian have been a topic of interest because they are able to provide good models for data in many coding systems, especially in image and video coding systems. This thesis studies the entropy coding of such high peak, heavy-tailed probability distributions. READ MORE
