  1. 21. Linguistic Challenges in Science Education : A Classroom Study of Teachers’ and Students’ use of Central Concepts in Genetics

    Author : Karin Thörne; Niklas Gericke; Anders Arnqvist; Anat Yarden; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Classroom study; Classroom talk; Genetics education; Genetics concepts; Scientific language; Secondary school; Systemic Functional Linguistics; Thematic pattern analysis; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : This thesis examines linguistic aspects of genetics education and is based on the view that language is an essential dimension of teaching and learning. Its objective is to clarify how teachers and students use genetics concepts in real teaching situations. READ MORE

  2. 22. Motion in Language and Experience : Actual and Non-actual motion in Swedish, French and Thai

    Author : Johan Blomberg; Allmän språkvetenskap; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; motion situations; non-actual motion; Swedish; elicitation; cognitive linguistics; phenomenology; Thai; French; subjective motion; fictive motion; semantic typology; motion; spatial semantics; motion events;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with motion in language and non-linguistic experience, distinguishing between actual motion (AM) and non-actual motion (NAM). AM is the experience of continuous change in an object’s position, expressed in sentences such as 'The man runs through the forest' and 'The woman is walking'. READ MORE

  3. 23. Contributions to Shallow Discourse Parsing : To English and beyond

    Author : Murathan Kurfalı; Robert Östling; Mats Wirén; Christian Hardmeier; Amir Zeldes; Stockholms universitet; []
    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

  4. 24. The Multilingual Forest : Investigating High-quality Parallel Corpus Development

    Author : Yvonne Adesam; Martin Volk; Joakim Nivre; Koenraad de Smedt; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; treebank; syntax; alignment; corpus; annotation projection; multilingual; tagging; parsing; datorlingvistik; Computational Linguistics;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the development of parallel treebanks, collections of language data consisting of texts and their translations, with syntactic annotation and alignment, linking words, phrases, and sentences to show translation equivalence. We describe the semi-manual annotation of the SMULTRON parallel treebank, consisting of 1,000 sentences in English, German and Swedish. READ MORE

  5. 25. Norm-Regulation of Agent Systems : Instrumentalizing an algebraic approach to agent system norms

    Author : Magnus Hjelmblom; Magnus Boman; Jan Odelstad; Kim Solin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Agent System; Norm-regulated; Norm-governed; Normative MAS; Normative Positions; Normative system; Transition system; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : An architecture for norm-regulated multi-agent systems based on an algebraic approach to normative systems is instrumentalized and further developed. The core of the instrumentalization is a Prolog module, which together with a Java library can be used for creating client/server-based runtime systems. READ MORE
