  1. 26. Interpretation of Swedish Sign Language using Convolutional Neural Networks and Transfer Learning

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

    Author : Gustaf Halvardsson; Johanna Peterson; [2020]
    Keywords : Sign language interpretation; machine learning; convolutional neural networks; transfer learning; image recognition; Teckenspråkstolkning; maskininlärning; convolutional neural networks; transfer learning; bildigenkänning;

    Abstract : The automatic interpretation of signs of a sign language involves image recognition. An appropriate approach for this task is to use Deep Learning, and in particular, Convolutional Neural Networks. This method typically needs large amounts of data to be able to perform well.

  3. 27. The invocation of X

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/HDK - Högskolan för design och konsthantverk

    Author : Klara Bothén; [2019-07-15]
    Keywords : Textil; Formgivning; Steneby;

    Abstract : “The Invocation of X” takes its beginning in a narrative about domestic textile handicrafts in a historical perspective. This is in turn connected to other stories: handicrafts as a political strategy, secret societies, and the shared matrix of textile and digital structures. READ MORE

  4. 28. Image schemas, mimetic schemas, and the development of Swedish children’s gestures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kognitiv semiotik; Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Språk och språkvetenskap

    Author : Klara Sif Skarphédinsdóttir; [2019]
    Keywords : Gesture; Communication; Language; Image Schema; Mimetic Schema; Mimesis; Sign; Sign function; Cognitive Semiotics; Viewpoint; Mode of Representation; Semiotic Grounds; Languages and Literatures;

    Abstract : Language and gesture are two semiotic systems that work together in close integration during communication. One issue in particular, that of image schemas, has been studied in relation to gestures, though most often in adult gesture and communication (Williams, forthcoming; Cienki, 2013; Mittelberg, 2006, 2018).

  5. 29. I never tried the swings before : Perspectives on urban greenspace from children with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Lena Hanses; [2019]
    Keywords : Green access; greenspace; park; children; profound intellectual and multiple disabilities; PIMD; disability;

    Abstract : To achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 11.7 aiming to create inclusiveand accessible greenspaces, there is need to involve children with profound intellectual andmultiple disabilities in research and planning practices. READ MORE

  6. 30. Implementation of an 8-bit Dynamic Fixed-Point Convolutional Neural Network for Human Sign Language Recognition on a Xilinx FPGA Board

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

    Author : Ricardo Núñez-Prieto; [2019]
    Keywords : Artificial Intelligence; Computer Vision; Machine Learning; Convolutional Neural Networks; FPGA; Sign Language Recognition; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The goal of this thesis work is to implement a convolutional neural network on an FPGA device with the capability of recognising human sign language. The set of gestures that the neural network can identify has been taken from the Swedish sign language, and it consists of the signs used for representing the letters of the Swedish alphabet (a.k.a.
