1. 1. WHO’S AFRAID OF COMPLEXITY? An Exploration of the Influence of Native Language Complexity on L2 Complexity

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för filosofi, lingvistik och vetenskapsteori

   Author : Nadina Mariana Suditu; [2023-06-19]
   Keywords : complexity; SLA; TTR; entropy; kolmogorov; linear regression;

   Abstract : The matter of linguistic complexity has been widely scrutinised in the last few decades, within theoretical linguistics, as well as in second language acquisition studies. A concept introduced in the last half of the previous century, it continues to be a matter of debate in the linguistic field, as it eludes a clear-cut definition and interpretation. READ MORE

3. 2. Mispronunciation Detection with SpeechBlender Data Augmentation Pipeline

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

   Author : Yassine Elkheir; [2023]
   Keywords : Computer-assisted pronunciation training CAPT ; Automatic Speech Recognition ASR ; Mispronunciation Detection MD and Data Augmentation; Datorstödd uttalsträning CAPT ; automatisk taligenkänning ASR ; upptäckt av felaktigt uttal MD och dataförstärkning;

   Abstract : The rise of multilingualism has fueled the demand for computer-assisted pronunciation training (CAPT) systems for language learning, CAPT systems make use of speech technology advancements and offer features such as learner assessment and curriculum management. Mispronunciation detection (MD) is a crucial aspect of CAPT, aimed at identifying and correcting mispronunciations in second language learners’ speech. READ MORE

4. 3. Machine Learning-based MIMO Indoor Positioning

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

   Author : Qiyi Chen; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The most widely used positioning system is Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), which uses traditional positioning techniques and cannot achieve satisfactory positioning performance in indoor scenarios due to Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) transmission. Fingerprinting is a non-traditional positioning technique that is robust to NLoS transmission in indoor scenarios. READ MORE

5. 4. The complexity of linguistic complexity: a corpus-based study on development of phrasal complexity in written L2-Swedish

   Keywords : Second language development; Complexity; Accuracy; and Fluency; Linguistic complexity; Syntactic complexity; Phrasal complexity; Noun phrase complexity; Morphological complexity; Languages and Literatures;

   Abstract : The aim of this study was to establish whether or not a development of the complexity of the noun phrase, i.e. an increase in noun phrase elaboration could be observed in written L2 Swedish over time. READ MORE

6. 5. An End-to-End Native Language Identification Model without the Need for Manual Annotation

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

   Author : Viktorija Buzaitė; [2022]
   Keywords : native language identification; NLI; BERT; syntax; errors;

   Abstract : Native language identification (NLI) is a classification task which identifies the mother tongue of a language learner based on spoken or written material. The task gained popularity when it was featured in the 2017 BEA-12-workshop and since then many applications have been successfully found for NLI - ranging from language learning to authorship identification and forensic science.
