Le travail présenté dans cette thèse explore les méthodes pratiques utilisées pour faciliter l'entraînement et améliorer les performances des modèles de langues munis de très grands vocabulaires. La principale limite à l'utilisation des modèles de langue neuronaux est leur coût computationnel: il dépend de la taille du vocabulaire avec laquelle il grandit linéairement. La façon la plus aisée de réduire le temps de calcul de ces modèles reste de limiter la taille du vocabulaire, ce qui est loin d'être satisfaisant pour de nombreuses tâches.

Abstract:
Databases can easily reach petabytes (1,048,576 gigabytes) in scale. A system to enable users to efficiently retrieve or query data from multiple databases simultaneously is needed. This research introduces a new, cloud-based query framework, designed and built using Language Integrated Query, to query existing data sources without the need to integrate or restructure existing databases. Protein data obtained through the query framework proves its feasibility and cost effectiveness.

The move towards larger vocabulary Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems places greater demands on language models.

Model checking is an automated verification technique which exhaustively searches the state space to determine whether a model of the system satisfies a given property.

Abstract:
Speech recognition in Turkish Language is a challenging problem in several perspectives. Most of the challenges are related to the morphological structure of the language. Since Turkish is an agglutinative language, it is possible to generate many words from a single stem by using suffixes. This characteristic of the language increases the out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words, which degrade the performance of a speech recognizer dramatically. Also, Turkish language allows words to be ordered in a free manner, which makes it difficult to generate robust language models. In this thesis, the existing m

Abstract:
This study aims to build a new language model that can be used in a Turkish large vocabulary continuous speech recognition system. Turkish is a very productive language in terms of word forms because of its agglutinative nature. For such languages like Turkish, the vocabulary size is far from being acceptable. From only one simple stem, thousands of new word forms can be generated using inflectional or derivational suffixes. In this thesis, words are parsed into their stems and endings. One ending includes the suffixes attached to the associated root. Then the search network based on bigrams i

Abstract:
Social identities, the labels we use to describe ourselves and others, carry with them stereotypes that have significant impacts on our social lives. Our stereotypes, sometimes without us knowing, guide our decisions on whom to talk to and whom to stay away from, whom to befriend and whom to bully, whom to treat with reverence and whom to view with disgust. Despite these impacts of identities and stereotypes on our lives, existing methods used to understand them are lacking. In this thesis, I first develop three novel computational tools that further our ability to test and utilize existing so
