As people age, they adjust how they associate objects. We examine the interplay between age and various aspects of object similarity. For this, we perform two experiments: one between adults aged 25–35 and 50–60 and another between six-year-olds and adults. Between 25–35- and 50–60-year-olds, we...

Alzheimer’s Dementia Detection Through Machine Learning: Analyzing Linguistic and Acoustic Features in Spontaneous Speech
DownloadFall 2023
With the rapid aging of the world’s population, the global burden of aging related mental disorders, such as Alzheimer’s dementia (AD), is also on the rise. Unfortunately global healthcare systems are vastly under-resourced, which means that many people who need mental health services are unable...

Building intelligent open-domain dialogue systems is a long-standing goal of artificial intelligence. These systems, also known as chatbots, aim to hold conversations with humans in an open-ended fashion. However, it is well known that standard encoder-decoder dialogue systems tend to generate...

Application of Natural Language Processing and Information Retrieval in Two Software Engineering Tools
DownloadFall 2021
Many software engineering problems have traditionally been approached by applying techniques based on static analysis and fixed sets of rules. I created two novel techniques to tackle three software engineering problems: typo location, fix suggestion, and crash report bucket creation. However,...

Finding reliable resources and Chatting with Mira while considering emotions when the scenario is unscripted
DownloadSpring 2024
The primary wellspring of information, the Internet, abounds with misinfor- mation, particularly in the domains of mental health and psychology. This also affects the reliability and truth of responses of chatbots counting on unverified data. To address this concern, the MIRA project started to...

Grapheme-to-phoneme conversion (G2P) is the task of converting a word, represented by a sequence of graphemes, to its pronunciation, represented by a sequence of phonemes. The G2P task plays a crucial role in speech synthesis systems, and is an important part of other applications, including...

Cognates are words in related languages that have originated from the same word in an ancestor language, such as the English/German word pair father/Vater. Cognate information is critical in the field of historical linguistics, where it is used to determine the relationships between languages and...

Natural Language Processing (NLP) develops computational approaches to processing language data. Supervised machine learning has become the dominant methodology of modern NLP. The performance of a supervised NLP system crucially depends on the amount of data available for training. In the...

Grapheme-to-phoneme conversion (G2P) and machine transliteration are important tasks in natural language processing. Supplemental data can often help resolve difficult ambiguities: existing transliterations of the same word can help choose among a G2P system’s candidate output transcriptions;...
