  1. 1. Gender and representation : investigations of bias in natural language processing

    Författare :Hannah Devinney; Henrik Björklund; Jenny Björklund; Christian Hardmeier; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NLP; natural language processing; gender bias; social impact of AI; gendered pronouns; neopronouns; gender studies; topic modeling; Computer Science; datalogi; computational linguistics; datorlingvistik; genusvetenskap; gender studies;

    Sammanfattning : Natural Language Processing (NLP) technologies are a part of our every day realities. They come in forms we can easily see as ‘language technologies’ (auto-correct, translation services, search results) as well as those that fly under our radar (social media algorithms, 'suggested reading' recommendations on news sites, spam filters).

  2. 2. Extreme Electron Beams and Brilliant X-rays : Generation, Manipulation and Characterization of Relativistic Electron Beams for and from Plasma-Based Accelerators

    Författare :Jonas Björklund Svensson; Atomfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; laser; plasma; wakefield; acceleration; accelerator; relativistic; electrons; x-rays; ultra-fast; betatron; laser-wakefield acceleration; plasma-wakefield acceleration; Fysicumarkivet A:2020:Björklund;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on work done by the author on the development of plasma-based electron accelerators driven by ultra-intense laser pulses and dense electron bunches. Plasma based accelerators have several benefits, such as accelerating fields around 1000 times stronger than in “conventional” radio-frequency accelerators, which can allow for shrinking the overall footprint of the accelerator.

  3. 3. Algorithmic Bounds for Presumably Hard Combinatorial Problems

    Författare :Andreas Björklund; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; numerisk analys; system; control; Datalogi; numerical analysis; systems; Computer science; Approximation algorithms; Exact algorithms; NP-hard problems; Algorithm theory; kontroll;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we present new worst case computational bounds on algorithms for some of the most well-known NP-complete and #P-complete problems and their optimization variants. We consider graph problems like Longest Path, Maximum Cut, Number of Perfect Matchings, Chromatic and Domatic Number, as well as Maximum k-Satisfiability and Set Cover. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Approximating Longest Path

    Författare :Andreas Björklund; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : We investigate the computational hardness of approximating the longest path and the longest cycle in undirected and directed graphs on n vertices. We show that * in any expander graph, we can find (n) long paths in polynomial time. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Effects of over-stimulation by glucose on pancreatic beta-cell functioning : studies in vitro with diazoxide

    Författare :Anneli Björklund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :diabetes mellitus; diazoxide; hyperglycemia; insulin secretion; islets of Langerhans; over-stimulation;

    Sammanfattning : Long term hyperglycemia impairs pancreatic ß-cell function. In vivo studies in rats have shown a decreased glucose-induced insulin response in the perfused pancreas after high glucose infusions. LÄS MER
