4. 3. Stochastic Frank-Wolfe Algorithm : Uniform Sampling Without Replacement

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistik

   Author : Olof Håkman; [2023]
   Keywords : Stochastic Frank-Wolfe; Stochastic optimization; Sampling without replacement;

   Abstract : The Frank-Wolfe (FW) optimization algorithm, due to its projection free property, has gained popularity in recent years with typical application within the field of machine learning.

5. 4. A City By No-One

   University essay from KTH/Arkitektur

   Author : Oscar Hultén; [2023]
   Keywords : urban environment interactivity algorithm;

   Abstract : This project is an exploration of methods for generating virtual urban environments, framed in an interactive first-person perspective allowing the user to navigate the architectural design space by walking through a city as it is being generated. The project is developed on a foundation of three primary concepts: 1) A spatial interpretation of parameter sets which are positioned in virtual space, 2) Distance-based interpolation of these parameter sets as a method to govern how the urban environments are generated at different points in space,3) The transformation and merging of basic square grids embedded in positioned parameter sets resulting in a composite grid which functions as the spatial framework of the urban environment.

6. 5. Translanguaging; transcending conventional language teaching,effects, attitudes, and perceptions.

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för kultur, språk och medier (KSM)

   Author : Lexros Erik; Timrin Nicolina; [2023]
   Keywords : translanguaging; vocabulary acquisition; first language; second language; second language acquisition; bilingualism; multilingualism; English as a second language ESL ; English as a foreign language EFL ;

   Abstract : This study investigates how translanguaging could affect the acquisition of a second language for young language learners and how teachers and other authoritative agents' attitudes/perspectives affect implementation of translanguaging in school. Cummins(2018) describes translanguaging as a concept of focusing on the dynamic correlations between different languages for a bilingual individual. READ MORE
