  1. 1. 'It was never about the games' : A Critical Discourse Analysis of the Construction of "Video Game Addiction" in Swedish News 1991-2017

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för speldesign

    Author : Ulf Benjaminsson; Danielle Unéus; [2023]
    Keywords : discourse analysis; video game addiction; moral panic; moral entrepreneurs; Owe Sandberg; Patrik Wincent; youth culture; juvenism; forced treatment; Sweden;

    Abstract : This theoretical thesis employs critical discourse analysis to scrutinise the construction of video game addiction in Swedish press from 1991 to 2017, and examines its potential contribution to a moral panic. Our research is based on the assumption that media discourse influences societal norms, which in turn, can profoundly affect individuals and groups. READ MORE

  2. 2. Self-Supervised Fine-Tuning of sentence embedding models using a Smooth Inverse Frequency model : Automatic creation of labels with Smooth Inverse Frequency model

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Vittorio Pellegrini; [2023]
    Keywords : Natural Language Processing; sentence embeddings; Transformer-based architectures; sentence paraphrasing; sentence similarity; sentence clustering; Naturlig språkbehandling; inbäddning av meningar; transformatorbaserade arkitekturer; parafrasering av meningar; meningslikhet; klustring av meningar Canvas Lärplattform; Dockerbehållare; Prestandajustering;

    Abstract : Sentence embedding models play a key role in the field of Natural Language Processing. They can be exploited for the resolution of several tasks like sentence paraphrasing, sentence similarity, and sentence clustering. READ MORE

  3. 3. Style Transfer Paraphrasing for Consistency Training in Sentiment Classification

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Núria Casals; [2021]
    Keywords : Semi-Supervised Learning; Data Augmentation; Sentiment Classification; Neural Paraphrasing; Semi-övervakad inlärning; Data förändring; Sentimentklassificering; Neural parafrasering;

    Abstract : Text data is easy to retrieve but often expensive to classify, which is why labeled textual data is a resource often lacking in quantity. However, the use of labeled data is crucial in supervised tasks such as text classification, but semi-supervised learning algorithms have shown that the use of unlabeled data during training has the potential to improve model performance, even in comparison to a fully supervised setting.

  4. 4. Metaphors and Japan : Translating Conceptual Metaphors from a Survival Guide to Customs and Etiquette

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för språk (SPR)

    Author : Anneli Olsson Hagman; [2021]
    Keywords : English; Swedish; translation; metaphors; conceptual metaphors; translation strategies; engelska; svenska; översättning; metaforer; Japan; facköversättning; översättningsstrategier;

    Abstract : The metaphor is known for creating problems when it comes to translation, not only because of cultural aspects but also because of a lack of a unified terminology and theory for translation strategies. This also applies to conceptual metaphors which are the subject of analysis in this paper where an English survival guide to the Japanese culture has been translated into Swedish. READ MORE

  5. 5. Evaluation of Sentence Representations in Semantic Text Similarity Tasks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Nils Balzar Ekenbäck; [2021]
    Keywords : sentence representations; semantic text similarity; sentence simi-larity; word embeddings; sentence embeddings; meningsrepresentation; semantisk textlikhet; meningslikhet; or-dinbäddningar; meningsinbäddningar;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the methods of representing sentence representations for semantic text similarity using word embeddings and benchmarks them against sentence based evaluation test sets. Two methods were used to evaluate the representations: STS Benchmark and STS Benchmark converted to a binary similarity task. READ MORE
