  3. 2. Breakdown situations in dialogues between humans and socially intelligent agents

    Författare :Maitreyee Tewari; Helena Lindgren; Kai-Florian Richter; Olov Engwall; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dialogues; Breakdown Situations; Focus Shift; Human-Centric Artificial Intelligence; Engeström’s Activity Triangle; We-Intention; Argumentation-Based Dialogues; Grice’s Cooperative Principle; Communicative Functions; Wizard-of-Oz; User Studies; Thematic Analysis; Sequence Organisation; Computer Science; datalogi;

    Sammanfattning : Dialogues between humans are complex due to the challenges in predicting how they will unfold as people may want to achieve different purposes. For instance, to act together, they co-create a common goal; to learn, they co-create knowledge; to build relationships, they share emotions and beliefs. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Linear and non-linear dynamics of non-autonomous flows

    Författare :J. Simon Kern; Dan S. Henningson; Ardeshir Hanifi; Peter J. Schmid; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Time-dependent flows; linear stability; non-linear dynamics; Floquet analysis; optimally time-dependent modes; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Fluid flows subject to time-dependent external forces or boundary conditions are ubiquitous in biology and technical applications. Whether one considers birds flying by flapping their wings or the gust response of wind turbines, the flow is non-autonomous. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Neural and Cognitive Effects of Hearing Loss on Speech Processing

    Författare :Eline Borch Petersen; Thomas Lunner; Stefan Stenfelt; Jonas Obleser; Edmund Lalor; Linköpings universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Understanding speech in the presence of noise can be difficult, especially when suffering from a hearing loss. This thesis examined behavioural and electrophysiological measures of speech processing with the aim of establishing how they were influenced by hearing loss (internal degradation) and listening condition (external degradation).
