1. 21. The Role of Language of Instruction: The Case of Morocco

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

   Author : Emma Hamre; Yuki Kanayama; [2023]
   Keywords : Language of Instruction; Mother Tongue; Educational Attainment; Gender Gap; Intergenerational Transmission;

   Abstract : This paper explores the differential and intergenerational effects of Morocco's 1983 language policy that changed the language of instruction for most subjects in grades 6 to 12 from French to Classical Arabic. Although the policy has faced ongoing criticism over four decades, the plausible heterogeneous effects of the policy on marginalized groups and its intergenerational impact have yet to be investigated in the literature.

   Keywords : Imbalanced datasets; Swedish text financial datasets; Accuracy; Matthews correlation coefficient; Recall; Multinomial Naive Bayes; SMOTE; TomekLinks; Performance optimization;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates imbalanced Swedish text financial datasets, specifically receipt classification using machine learning models. The study explores the effectiveness of under-sampling and over-sampling methods for Naive Bayes algorithms, collaborating with Fortnox for a controlled experiment. READ MORE

4. 23. EMONAS : Evolutionary Multi-objective Neuron Architecture Search of Deep Neural Network

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

   Author : Jiayi Feng; [2023]
   Keywords : DNN Deep Neural Network ; NAS Neural Architecture Search ; EA Evolutionary Algorithm ; Multi-Objective Optimization; Binary One Optimization; Embedded Systems; DNN Deep Neural Network ; NAS Neural Architecture Search ; EA Evolutionary Algorithm ; Multi-Objective Optimization; Binary One Optimization; Inbyggda system;

   Abstract : Customized Deep Neural Network (DNN) accelerators have been increasingly popular in various applications, from autonomous driving and natural language processing to healthcare and finance, etc. However, deploying them directly on embedded system peripherals within real-time operating systems (RTOS) is not easy due to the paradox of the complexity of DNNs and the simplicity of embedded system devices.

5. 24. Analyzing the Influence of Synthetic andAugmented Data on Segmentation Model

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Alex Peschel; [2023]
   Keywords : Artificial Intelligence; Microorganisms; Segmentation; Synthesizing; Augmentation;

   Abstract : The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years, thanks to the numerous applications related to speech recognition, natural language processing, and computer vision. However, one of the challenges facing AI is the requirement for large amounts of energy, time, and data to be effective and accurate. READ MORE

6. 25. "I immediately think about philosophy" : A study of learners' attitudes toward English poetry in the EFL classroom

   University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikation

   Author : Anna Larsson; [2023]
   Keywords : second language learning; English foreign language; literature; poetry; attitudes; motivation; learner perspective; Swedish upper secondary school; Sweden;

   Abstract : Poetry has great potential benefits for second language (L2) classrooms as a source for increasing language awareness and linguistic structures different from the rules learners may be taught in class. This potential of poetry and methods for teaching poetry is relatively well researched, while the learner perspective has received comparatively little attention. READ MORE
