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

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för filosofi, lingvistik och vetenskapsteori

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

    Sammanfattning : 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.

    Nyckelord :Feminist Foreign Policy; national identity; performativity; reproduction; critical discourse analysis; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : Viewing Sweden’s Feminist Foreign Policy (FFP) as a paradigmatically case of national identity formulation, this thesis overarching aim is to answer the following research question: to what extent is Sweden’s national identity constructed through foreign policy? It assumes that there is a correlation between foreign policy and national identity, with background in earlier theoretical work of selected poststructuralists who all rely on the performativity theory of Judith Butler. It assumes that Sweden and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs have a self-perception of itself as feminist and gender equal. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Understanding Sales Performance Using Natural Language Processing - An experimental study evaluating rule-based algorithms in a B2B setting

    Sammanfattning : Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a branch in data science that marries artificial intelligence with linguistics. Essentially, it tries to program computers to understand human language, both spoken and written. Over the past decade, researchers have applied novel algorithms to gain a better understanding of human sentiment. LÄS MER
