  1. 1. Frontiers of Multilingual Grammar Development

    Author : Ramona Enache; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multilingual grammar development; ontology verbalization; resource grammar development; hybrid machine translation; functional programming; domain specific languages;

    Abstract : The thesis explores a number of ways for developing multilingual grammars written in GF (Grammatical Framework). The goal is to enhance both the coverage of the grammars, in terms of content and number of languages, and to reduce the development effort by automating a larger part of the process. READ MORE

  3. 3. Multilingual Abstractions: Abstract Syntax Trees and Universal Dependencies

    Author : Kolachina Prasanth; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grammatical Framework; Universal Dependencies; Natural Language Processing; multilinguality; abstract syntax trees; dependency trees; multilingual generation; multilingual parsers;

    Abstract : This thesis studies the connections between parsing friendly representations and interlingua grammars developed for multilingual language generation.

  4. 4. Compiling Grammar-based Speech Application Components

    Author : Björn Bringert; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : It is easy to imagine machines that can communicate using spoken natural language. Constructing such machines is more difficult. The available methods for development of interactive speech applications are costly, and current research is mainly focused on producing more sophisticated systems, rather than on making it easier to build them.

  5. 5. Language and executive functions in Swedish preschoolers

    Author : Signe Tonér; Tove Nilsson Gerholm; Francisco Lacerda; Sven Strömqvist; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; language development; narrative; executive functions; theory of mind; preschool; event-related potentials; selective attention; Swedish; early childhood; Linguistics; lingvistik;

    Abstract : The main goals of this dissertation are to investigate the associations between language and executive functions, including selective auditory attention, in Swedish children aged 4–6, to examine possible links to factors relating to the child and his/her social environment, and to evaluate preschool interventions with regard to potential improvements in language and/or executive functions. Measures were obtained by combining results from behavioral tests, language samples in the form of narratives, parent and teacher ratings and a measure of selective auditory attention as brain activity.
