Kille: Learning Objects and Spatial Relations with Kinect
(2020-08-26)In order for humans to have meaningful interactions with a robotic system, this system should be capable of grounding semantic representations to their real-world representations, learn spatial relationships and communicate ... -
LAUGHTER PREDICTION IN TEXT BASED DIALOGUES Predicting Laughter using Transformer-Based Models
(2022-06-20)In this paper we will attempt to predict and assess the performance of predicting laughter using a BERT model (Devlin et al., 2019), and a BERT model finetuned on the Open subtitles dataset with and without considering ... -
THE LINGUISTIC STRUCTURE OF WIKIPEDIA A multilingual analysis and comparison of the language used in Wikipedia articles
(2022-06-20)Wikipedia is a great source of knowledge, but due to its open-collaboration nature, it presents some limitations. Namely, the uneven distribution of content, the low overlap in topic coverage, the differences in the ... -
MULTI-CLASS GRAMMATICAL ERROR DETECTION Data, Benchmarks and Evaluation Metrics for the First Shared Task on Swedish L2 Data
(2022-06-20)Grammatical Error Detection (GED) is a challenging NLP task that has not received a lot of research attention in the recent years, especially in the Swedish language. However, in the world we live in, where there are ... -
NEURAL MACHINE TRANSLATION FROM NORTH SÁMI TO SWEDISH
(2022-03-08)Neural machine translation is a method used in automatic translation that makes use of artificial neural networks. A single model takes an input sequence and predicts the most likely output sequence of words after being ... -
Prosody and emotion: Towards the development of an emotional agent Emotional evaluation of news reports: production and perception experiments
(2022-01-20)There is a recognised need for more research on the topic of emotion recognition from speech, and clear and defined methodology in this area is still lacking. Most studies in the field of emotional speech recognition and ... -
RESPONSIBLE WOMEN AND ANALYTICAL MEN Developing Swedish Gendered Lexica for Detection of Gender Bias in Job Advertisements
