Abstract:

There are different forms for boundary-crossing learning in and between organizations. One growing form is network. This paper will present a study of collective learning in two innovative networks at the west coast of Sweden. One network is about regional health and growth, the other about leadership development among general directors. Representatives from different organizations meet to learn from each other’s practice. How does this learning take place? What supports and what prevents it? Does it have any effects in their own organizations? Data has been collected through questionnaires, o

Abstract:

In many machine learning problems and application domains, the data are naturally organized by groups. For example, a video sequence is a group of images, an image is a group of patches, a document is a group of paragraphs/words, and a community is a group of people. We call them the collective data. In this thesis, we study how and what we can learn from collective data. Usually, machine learning focuses on individual objects, each of which is described by a feature vector and studied as a point in some metric space. When approaching collective data, researchers often reduce the groups into v

Abstract:

With the rapid expansion of the Internet and WWW, the problem of analyzing social media data has received an increasing amount of attention in the past decade. The boom in social media platforms offers many possibilities to study human collective behavior and interactions on an unprecedented scale. In the past, much work has been done on the problem of learning from networked data with homogeneous topologies, where instances are explicitly or implicitly inter-connected by a single type of relationship. In contrast to traditional content-only classification methods, relational learning succeeds

Abstract:

Knowledge has become a key source of competitiveness for advanced regions and nations, indicating a transformation of advanced capitalist economies towards "knowledge-based economies". Knowledge intensive sectors in production and in services have a lead in this respect, they can be considered as role models for the future. The innovation process, the mechanisms of knowledge exchange and the respective linkages in those industries differ quite markedly from those in other sectors. Clustering and local knowledge spillovers are frequently stated phenomena, although it is still unclear to what ex

Abstract:

Recent studies in cognitive science indicate that language has an important social function. The structure and knowledge of language emerges from the processes of human communication together with the domain-general cognitive processes. Each individual of a community interacts socially with a limited number of peers. Nevertheless societies are characterized by their stunning global regularities. By dealing with the language as a complex adaptive system, we are able to analyze how languages change and evolve over time.

Abstract:

Machine learning enables machines to learn automatically from data. In literature, graph-based methods have received increasing attention due to their ability to learn from both local and global information. In these methods, each data instance is represented by a vertex and is linked to other vertices according to a predefined affinity rule. However, they usually have unfeasible time cost for large problems. To overcome this problem, techniques can employ a heuristic to find suboptimal solutions in a feasible time. Early heuristic optimization methods exploit nature-inspired collective proces

Modern technologies have resulted in the production of numerous high-throughput biological datasets. However, the pace of development of capable computational methods does not cope with the pace of generation of new high-throughput datasets. Amongst the most popular biological high-throughput datasets are gene expression datasets (e.g. microarray datasets). This work targets this aspect by proposing a suite of computational methods which can analyse multiple gene expression datasets collectively. The focal method in this suite is the unification of clustering results from multiple datasets usi

This project deals with the study of the social learning dynamics of agents in a society. For that we employ techniques from statistical mechanics, machine learning and probability theory.

Making use of a maximum entropy analysis one can describe the interacting pair as a dynamics along the gradient of the logarithm of the evidence. This permits introducing energy like quantities and approximate global Hamiltonians. We test different hypothesis having in mind the li

Though being named a key element, the effects of collective learning processes on power and conflict dynamics have been defined very vaguely in reflexive governance approaches.

Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Lisa Dodson<br>Service learning has emerged as one of the most popular mechanisms to promote and teach students about civic, moral, and political responsibility in American colleges and universities. This dissertation offers a critical exploration of the potential and limitations that engagement in service activities, and service learning in particular, can offer. The research was designed to explore how individual long-term volunteers attach meaning to their service experience, as well as how these meanings are constructed.

Abstract:

Malgré les améliorations portées à la détection des crues, à leurs prévisions et au perfectionnement des technologies de communication ces vingt dernières années, les systèmes d’alerte aux inondations restent soumis à des vulnérabilités et des incertitudes inhérentes à leur fonctionnement. En s’intéressant plus particulièrement au dispositif de Vigilance crues, ce travail questionne la manière dont les acteurs impliqués dans ce dispositif sociotechnique s’adaptent aux incertitudes et vulnérabilités auxquelles ils sont soumis. Ce travail s’appuie notamment sur le développement d’un modèle centr
