    Sammanfattning : Although the topic of sustainability communication has been extensively studied since the 1970s, there remain gaps and contradictions, e.g. the effectiveness of communication strategies for influencing individual pro-environmental behaviour change. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Readability: Man and Machine : Using readability metrics to predict results from unsupervised sentiment analysis

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Martin Larsson; Samuel Ljungberg; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Natural language processing; Unsupervised learning; Sentiment analysis; Word embeddings; Readability; Språkteknologi; Oövervakad inlärning; Sentimentanalys; Ordinbäddningar; Läsbarhet;

    Sammanfattning : Readability metrics assess the ease with which human beings read and understand written texts. With the advent of machine learning techniques that allow computers to also analyse text, this provides an interesting opportunity to investigate whether readability metrics can be used to inform on the ease with which machines understand texts.

  4. 3. Konvergens i EU : Trivs Östeuropa i EU-gemenskapen?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

    Sammanfattning : The EU is a unique project both in scope and design. However at the time of writing they are losing a large member which makes it more relevant to investigate EU. This paper focuses on examining how member states develop in this community and how countries with different backgrounds respond to joining this community. LÄS MER

  5. 4. ANALYSIS OF BINARY DEPENDENT VARIABLES USING LINEAR PROBABILITY MODEL AND LOGISTIC REGRESSION: A REPLICATION STUDY

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Författare :Lutendo Vele; [2019]
    Nyckelord :binary choice models; logistic regression; linear probability model; forbidden regression; binary dependent variables; dichotomous variables; residuals as dependent variables;

    Sammanfattning : Linear Probability Model (LPM) is commonly used because it is easy to compute and interpret than with logits and probits even though the estimated probabilities may fall outside the $\big[$0,1$\big]$ interval and the linearity concept does not make much sense when dealing with probabilities. This paper extends upon the results of \citeA{Dara} reviewing the use of LPM to examine if alcohol prohibition reduces domestic violence. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The effect of behavioural changes over time on Cox proportional hazards estimates

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Författare :Jonatan Hedberg; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Mathematics and Statistics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis considers bias when studying behaviours in a Cox proportional hazards model. In Cox proportional hazards regressions and cohort studies in general, measurements are often made during a limited period of time. LÄS MER
