1. Chemical Communication and Mate Choice : Investigations into the Meaning of a Fruit Fly Pheromone
Sammanfattning : Chemical signals are the most widely used form of sexual communication throughout the living world. However, there is in general little knowledge about what these signals actually communicate. The role of chemical signals, i.e. LÄS MER
2. Optimal Design in Geodetic GNSS-based Networks
Sammanfattning : An optimal design of a geodetic network helps the surveying engineers maximise the efficiency of the network. A number of pre-defined quality requirements, i.e. precision, reliability, and cost, of the network are fulfilled by performing an optimisation procedure. LÄS MER
3. Predictive Modeling of Turn-Taking in Spoken Dialogue : Computational Approaches for the Analysis of Turn-Taking in Humans and Spoken Dialogue Systems
Sammanfattning : Turn-taking in spoken dialogue represents a complex cooperative process wherein participants use verbal and non-verbal cues to coordinate who speaks and who listens, to anticipate speaker transitions, and to produce backchannels (e.g., “mhm”, “uh-huh”) at the right places. LÄS MER
4. But What Do They Mean? : Modelling Contrast Between Speakers in Dialogue Signalled by “But”
Sammanfattning : Understanding what is being communicated in a dialogue involves determining how it is coherent, that is, how the successive turns in the dialogue are related, what the speakers’ intentions, goals, beliefs, and expectations are and how they relate to each other’s responses. This thesis aims to address how turns in dialogue are related when one speaker indicates contrast with something in the preceding discourse signalled by “but”. LÄS MER
5. A Novel Method for Adaptive Control of Manufacturing Equipment in Cloud Environments
Sammanfattning : The ability to adaptively control manufacturing equipment, both in local and distributed environments, is becoming increasingly more important for many manufacturing companies.One important reason for this is that manufacturing companies are facing increasing levels of changes, variations and uncertainty, caused by both internal and external factors, which can negatively impact their performance.
