  1. 6. Air quality prediction in metropolitan areas using deep learning methods

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Author : Augustin Ionut Ionascu; [2023]
    Keywords : air quality; forecasting; time-series; univariate; multivariate; multi-step; Attention; Transformer;

    Abstract : The rapid growth of the world's urban population shows that people are increasingly moving to cities. In recent decades, the frequent occurrence of smog caused by increasing industrialization has brought environmental pollution to record highs. READ MORE

  3. 7. Head-to-head Transfer Learning Comparisons made Possible : A Comparative Study of Transfer Learning Methods for Neural Machine Translation of the Baltic Languages

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

    Author : Mathias Stenlund; [2023]
    Keywords : machine translation; transfer learning; Latvian; Lithuanian; low-resource languages; transformers; parent language; child language; comparative study;

    Abstract : The struggle of training adequate MT models using data-hungry NMT frameworks for low-resource language pairs has created a need to alleviate the scarcity of sufficiently large parallel corpora. Different transfer learning methods have been introduced as possible solutions to this problem, where a new model for a target task is initialized using parameters learned from some other high-resource task.

  4. 8. Using Social Media and Personality Predictions to Anticipate Startup Success

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Daniel Stenson; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Startup Success Predictions; Founder Personalities; Natural Language Processing; Social Media Analysis; Big 5 Personality Framework; Feed-forward Neural Network; XGBoost.; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the potential of integrating predicted founder personalities, based on the Big 5 Personality Framework, into Machine Learning (ML) models to enhance the accuracy of early-stage startup success predictions. Leveraging Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques, we extracted personality insights from founders' tweets, focusing on US startups funded between 2013 and 2015. READ MORE

  5. 9. Anomaly Detection with Machine Learning using CLIP in a Video Surveillance Context

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Datorseende

    Author : Christoffer Gärdin; [2023]
    Keywords : Datorseende; maskininlärning; CLIP; anomalidetektion; videoövervakning;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the application of Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training (CLIP), a vision-language model, in an automated video surveillance system for anomaly detection. The ability of CLIP to perform zero-shot learning, coupled with its robustness against minor image alterations due to its lack of reliance on pixel-level image analysis, makes it a suitable candidate for this application.

  6. 10. The effectiveness of interacting with picture books on vocabulary acquisition in an EFL classroom

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

    Author : Ella Sjödin; Niam Dabbous; [2023]
    Keywords : “Interacting”; “Vocabulary acquisition”; “Picture books”; “English as foreign language”; “Young language learners”; “Read-aloud”;

    Abstract : This research paper investigates the effectiveness of interacting with picture books on vocabulary acquisition in the young learner English as a foreign language (EFL) classroom. Recent reports show that more than half of the pupils in Swedish secondary schools do not read outside of the school environment (Skolverket, 2019). READ MORE
