  1. 1. The Effectiveness of Word Focused Tasks. How Elaborate Processing Predicts Vocabulary Learning. A Literature Review.

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Lärarutbildningsnämnden

    Author : Jane Ekenberg; Mirjeta Makolli; [2023-06-12]
    Keywords : English as a foreign language; involvement load hypothesis; technique feature analysis; vocabulary learning; vocabulary tasks.;

    Abstract : L2 vocabulary learning is a sizeable challenge for all EFL students. Particularly, the lexical threshold for reading is a substantial learning feat requiring time and effort. Vocabulary research indicates that incidental learning alone is not sufficient for learners to achieve a functional EFL vocabulary. READ MORE

  2. 2. Trilingual spoken word recognition : Interlingual competition from one or two non-target languages in a sentence context

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Centrum för tvåspråkighetsforskning

    Author : Yulia Kashevarova; [2023]
    Keywords : trilingual speech processing; cross-linguistic competition; sentence context; BLINCS; BIA ;

    Abstract : Persistent non-target language co-activation in spoken and visual language comprehension has been found both at the word-level and at the level of a sentence, although in the latter case, sentence bias has been observed to modulate the co-activation which can create lexical competition. In the case of trilingual speakers, both non-target languages may potentially compete with the third language (L3). READ MORE

  3. 3. Elastic Net Regression for Prosthesis Control in Short Residual Limb Amputees: Performance and Generalizability

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Oskar Berg; [2023]
    Keywords : Neuroengineering; Statistics; Biomedical Signal Processing; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This Master's thesis in Biomedical Engineering investigates the performance and generalizability of linear regression models in context of prosthesis control for short residual limb amputees. This thesis uses intramuscular electromyography data, and a regression and emplys a regression technique called Elastic Net Regression - a technique that combines L1 and L2-regularization - to predict 1-DOF isometric forces outputs from fingers and the wrist.

  4. 4. A General Purpose Near Data Processing Architecture Optimized for Data-intensive Applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Xingda Li; Haidi Hu; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In recent years, as Internet of Things (IoT) and machine learning technologies have advanced, there has been increasing interest in the study of energy-efficient and flexible architectures for embedded systems. To bridge the performance gap between microprocessors and memory systems, Near-Data Processing (NDP) was introduced. READ MORE

  5. 5. LinguaMapping: The New Frontier in Language Processing : A New Online Tool for Measuring Swedish L1 Transfer in English Embedded Relative Clauses

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för lärande, humaniora och samhälle

    Author : Henrik Salomonsson; [2023]
    Keywords : L1 transfer; English embedded relative clauses; language processing; eye-tracking; self-paced reading; LinguaMapping;

    Abstract : The structure of embedded relative clauses in English may involve several grammatical elements, generating different grammatical rules with respect to word order. Studying the impact of first language (L1) transfer in the production of English embedded relative clauses is important to reveal valuable information about specific challenges in second language acquisition (SLA).
