  1. 1. IŻ SWÓJ JĘZYK MAJĄ! An exploration of the computational methods for identifying language variation in Polish

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

    Author : Maria Irena Szawerna; [2023-06-19]
    Keywords : language variation; Polish; diachronic linguistics; part-of-speech tagging; lemmatization; corpus linguistics;

    Abstract : Computational approaches to language variation continue to contribute in a relevant way to various fields, including Natural Language Processing (NLP) and linguistics. Being able to accommodate variation within natural language increases the robustness of NLP models and their usefulness in real-life applications; simultaneously, detecting and describing variation and trends that govern it is one of the main goals of sociolinguistics and historical linguistics, meaning that some of the advances in NLP can contribute to these fields as well.

  2. 2. How negation influences word order in languages : Automatic classification of word order preference in positive and negative transitive clauses

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

    Author : Chen Lyu; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this work, we explore the possibility of using word alignment in parallel corpus to project language annotations such as Part-of-Speech tags and dependency relation from high-resource languages to low-resource languages. We use a parallel corpus of Bible translations, including 1,444 translations in 986 languages, and a well-developed parser is used to annotate source languages (English, French, German, and Czech).

  3. 3. Cross-Lingual and Genre-Supervised Parsing and Tagging for Low-Resource Spoken Data

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

    Author : Iliana Fosteri; [2023]
    Keywords : dependency parsing; part-of-speech tagging; low-resource languages; transcribed speech; large language models; cross-lingual learning; transfer learning; multi-task learning; Universal Dependencies;

    Abstract : Dealing with low-resource languages is a challenging task, because of the absence of sufficient data to train machine-learning models to make predictions on these languages. One way to deal with this problem is to use data from higher-resource languages, which enables the transfer of learning from these languages to the low-resource target ones. READ MORE

  4. 4. Distillation or loss of information? : The effects of distillation on model redundancy

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

    Author : Eva Elzbieta Sventickaite; [2022]
    Keywords : distillation; distillation effects; distilbert; distilmbert; distilroberta; distilgpt-2; distilled neurons; redundancy; redundancy in neural networks; redundancy in language models; neuron reduction in language models; distilled language models;

    Abstract :     The necessity for billions of parameters in large language models has lately been questioned as there are still unanswered questions regarding how information is captured in the networks. It could be argued that without this knowledge, there may be a tendency to overparametarize the models. READ MORE

  5. 5. Natural Language Processing Model for Maltese Syntax

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

    Author : Greta Attard; [2021-10-08]
    Keywords : natural language processing; syntax; spaCy; universal dependency; dependency parser; part-of-speech tagger; maltese nlp pipeline;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to create a Natural Language Processing Model for the Maltese Language. The ultimate goal is that the model would be able to recognise syntactical features, that is the linguistic features and the relationship of a sequence of words, in Maltese. READ MORE
