  2. 21. Compound Processing for Phrase-Based Statistical Machine Translation

    Author : Sara Stymne; Lars Ahrenberg; Joakim Nivre; Alexander Fraser; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Machine translation; compounds; factored translation; statistical machine translation; computational linguistics; Computational linguistics; Datorlingvistik; Language technology; Språkteknologi; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : In this thesis I explore how compound processing can be used to improve phrase-based statistical machine translation (PBSMT) between English and German/Swedish. Both German and Swedish generally use closed compounds, which are written as one word without spaces or other indicators of word boundaries. READ MORE

  4. 22. Automatic Detection of Grammar Errors in Primary School Children's Texts. A Finite State Approach

    Author : Sylvana Sofkova Hashemi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; grammar errors; spelling errors; punctuation; children s writing; Swedish; language checking; light parsing; finite state technology;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the analysis of grammar errors in Swedish texts written by primary school children and the development of a finite state system for finding such errors. Grammar errors are more frequent for this group of writers than for adults and the distribution of the error types is different in children's texts. READ MORE

  5. 23. Does language matter? : sources of inequivalence and demand of reading ability of mathematics tasks in different languages

    Author : Frithjof Theens; Ewa Bergqvist; Magnus Österholm; Lotta Vingsle; Andreas Ryve; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mathematics tasks; reading; equivalence; DIF; multilingual assessments; PISA; matematikdidaktik; didactics of mathematics; pedagogiskt arbete; educational work;

    Abstract : Practicing mathematics is not possible without the use of language. To communicate mathematical content, not only words in natural language are used but also non-verbal forms of communication such as mathematical symbols, graphs, and diagrams. All these forms of communication can be seen as part of the language used when doing mathematics. READ MORE

  6. 24. Analysing normative contracts : On the semantic gap between natural and formal languages

    Author : John J. Camilleri; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; contract analysis; controlled natural language; formal methods; timed automata; model checking;

    Abstract : Normative contracts are documents written in natural language, such as English or Swedish, which describe the permissions, obligations, and prohibitions of two or more parties over a set of actions, including descriptions of the penalties which must be payed when the main norms are violated. We encounter such texts frequently in our daily lives in the form of privacy policies, software licenses, and service agreements. READ MORE
