La lactancia materna es uno de los elementos trascendentales para la vida humana, no solo en términos nutricionales sino también por los componentes afectivos que se dan en ella, además de permitir el desarrollo adecuado de las estructuras esqueletales de la cara y de las funciones estomatognáticas (succión, deglución, masticación y habla). Las características del frenillo lingual en bebés posibilita o interfiere en el movimiento de la lengua, afectando la lactancia, por ello el diagnóstico precoz del frenillo lingual alterado y una intervención temprana beneficiará las funciones de succión, deglución durante la lactancia y evitará problemas posteriores, principalmente del habla, dificultad más común que requiere de un tratamiento fonoaudiológico. El método empleado en el presente trabajo es de tipo descriptivo simple en la medida que se busca establecer las características de lactancia en bebés de 1 a 6 meses de edad con presencia de un frenillo alterado. Este estudio tiene una población equivalente de 50 lactantes de 1 a 6 meses del Hospital Rosalía de Lavalle de Morales Macedo en Lima. Los resultados obtenidos de acuerdo a la puntuación del protocolo elaborado por Roberta Martinelli fueron que 5 infantes presentaron frenillo alterado, teniendo una lactancia caracterizada por movimientos linguales inadecuados con protrusión lingual limitada, incoordinación de movimientos, demora para iniciar la succión, pocas succiones con pausas largas, muerden y sueltan el pezón, emiten chasquidos, entre otros; y 45 de ellos tuvieron frenillo sin alteración, lo cual repercute en un desequilibrio entre la eficiencia alimenticia y las funciones de succión, deglución y respiración. / Breastfeeding is one of the transcendental element for human life, not only nutritionally but also affective components that occur in it and allows the proper development of skeletal structures of the face and stomatognathic functions (sucking, swallowing , chewing and speaking ) as well as other social activities. The characteristics of the lingual frenulum in infants enables or interferes with the movement of the tongue, affecting breastfeeding, so the early diagnosis of altered lingual frenulum and early intervention benefit functions of sucking, swallowing during lactation and prevent further problems, mainly the speech, the most common difficulty that requires treatment by a speech therapist. The method used in this work is simple descriptive to the extent that it seeks to establish a profile in infants 1-6 months of age , associated with breastfeeding in relation to the bridle . This study has a population equivalent of 50 infants 1 month to 6 months Hospital Lavalle Rosalia Morales Macedo in Lima. The results obtained according to the protocol developed by score Roberta Martinelli were that 5 infants had altered bridle, having a feeding tongue movements characterized by inadequate tongue protrusion limited, uncoordinated movements, delay to start the suction few sucks with longer pauses, bite and release the nipple, emit clicks, among others; and 45 of them had bridle unchanged, which affects an imbalance between feed efficiency and functions of sucking, swallowing and breathing.

<p dir="ltr">Deep learning models have demonstrated remarkable success across diverse domains, including computer vision and natural language processing. These models heavily rely on resources, encompassing annotated data, computational power, and storage. However, mobile devices, particularly in scenarios like medical or multilingual contexts, often face constraints with computing power, making ample data annotation prohibitively expensive. Developing deep learning models for such resource-constrained scenarios presents a formidable challenge. Our primary goal is to enhance the efficiency of state-of-the-art neural network models tailored for resource-limited scenarios. Our commitment lies in crafting algorithms that not only mitigate annotation requirements but also reduce computational complexity and alleviate storage demands. Our dissertation focuses on two key areas: Parameter-efficient Learning and Data-efficient Learning. In Part 1, we present our studies on parameter-efficient learning. This approach targets the creation of lightweight models for efficient storage or inference. The proposed solutions are tailored for diverse tasks, including text generation, text classification, and text/image retrieval. In Part 2, we showcase our proposed methods for data-efficient learning, concentrating on cross-lingual and multi-lingual text classification applications. </p>

L’objectif de cette thèse est d’étudier les sentiments dans les documents comparables. Premièrement, nous avons recueillis des corpus comparables en anglais, français et arabe de Wikipédia et d’Euronews, et nous avons aligné ces corpus au niveau document. Nous avons en plus collecté des documents d’informations des agences de presse locales et étrangères dans les langues anglaise et arabe. Les documents en anglais ont été recueillis du site de la BBC, ceux en arabe du site d’Al-Jazzera. Deuxièmement, nous avons présenté une mesure de similarité cross-linguistique des documents dans le but de récupérer et aligner automatiquement les documents comparables. Ensuite, nous avons proposé une méthode d’annotation cross-linguistique en termes de sentiments, afin d’étiqueter les documents source et cible avec des sentiments. Enfin, nous avons utilisé des mesures statistiques pour comparer l’accord des sentiments entre les documents comparables source et cible. Les méthodes présentées dans cette thèse ne dépendent pas d’une paire de langue bien déterminée, elles peuvent être appliquées sur toute autre couple de langue / The aim of this thesis is to study sentiments in comparable documents. First, we collect English, French and Arabic comparable corpora from Wikipedia and Euronews, and we align each corpus at the document level. We further gather English-Arabic news documents from local and foreign news agencies. The English documents are collected from BBC website and the Arabic documents are collected from Al-jazeera website. Second, we present a cross-lingual document similarity measure to automatically retrieve and align comparable documents. Then, we propose a cross-lingual sentiment annotation method to label source and target documents with sentiments. Finally, we use statistical measures to compare the agreement of sentiments in the source and the target pair of the comparable documents. The methods presented in this thesis are language independent and they can be applied on any language pair

INTRODUÇÃO: A literatura é discordante com relação à interferência do IC sobre o equilíbrio corporal. Sendo assim, resolvemos avaliar o equilíbrio corporal de pacientes surdos pós-linguais, submetidos a implante coclear unilateral. OBJETIVO: Observar o equilíbrio corporal pré e pós-implante coclear (IC) ao longo de 1 ano. CASUÍSTICA E METODOLOGIA: Estudo prospectivo observacional realizado com 24 pacientes adultos, surdos pós-linguais submetidos à avaliação vestibular antes e depois da cirurgia de implante coclear unilateral. A avaliação vestibular contou com um questionário sobre vertigem, prova calórica (PC), cadeira rotatória (CR) e posturografia dinâmica computadorizada (PDC) aplicados no pré-operatório, 60, 120, 180 dias e 1 ano após a cirurgia de IC. RESULTADOS: A tontura foi referida por 13 (54,2%) pacientes pré-IC, enquanto 11 (45.8%) não apresentaram a queixa. Ao final do estudo 11 sujeitos (84,6%) referiram melhora da tontura, em 1 (7,7%) permaneceu inalterada e em 1 (7,7%) piorou. Dos 24 pacientes apenas 5 indivíduos (20,8%) desenvolveram tontura no pós-operatório imediato com resolução completa após um mês. A prova calórica identificou 7 (29,2%) sujeitos normorreflexos, 8 (33,3%) com hiporreflexia ou arreflexia unilateral , 3 (12,5%) com hiporreflexia bilateral e 6 (25%) com arreflexia vestibular bilateral (AVB).Houve interferência do estímulo elétrico em ambas as orelhas e na evolução da recuperação postural após ativação do IC, que promoveu a melhora significativa dos índices da PDC ao longo de um ano de acompanhamento. Ao final do estudo, as médias numéricas das condições avaliadas pela PDC mostraram-se superiores nos indivíduos que apresentaram resposta à prova calórica em relação àqueles que possuíam AVB. CONCLUSÃO: Foi decisiva a presença ou não de resposta pós-calórica na evolução do equilíbrio corporal ao longo de 1 ano. A ausência de resposta pós-calórica na avaliação pré-operatória implicou em pior prognóstico na evolução do equilíbrio corporal. No entanto, o melhor desempenho postural dos sujeitos com AVB pode ser explicado pelo melhor aproveitamento da informação visual. É fundamental documentar a presença de função vestibular antes da cirurgia de IC, pois dela depende o prognóstico do individuo em relação às habilidades de aprendizado e recuperação postural ao longo do tempo / INTRODUCTION: There is no consensus in the literature with regard to the effects of cochlear implantation (CI) on vestibular function and balance in patients with deafness. Because of this fact we decided to assess vestibular function before and after unilateral cochlear implantation (CI) in patients with postlingual deafness. OBJECTIVE: To assess balance before and after cochlear implantation (CI) over the course of 1 year. PATIENTS AND METHODS: prospective, observational study sought to assess balance in 24 postlingually deaf adults undergoing vestibular evaluation before and after cochlear implantation (CI). Vestibular assessment consisting of a vertigo questionnaire, caloric tests (CT), rotary chair testing (RC), and computerized dynamic posturography (CDP) was performed preoperatively and at 60, 120, 180 days and 1 year after CI. RESULTS: Overall, 13 patients (54.2%) reported preoperative dizziness and 11 (45.8%) did not have the symptom pre-CI. At the end of the study dizziness ameliorated in 11 (84.6%), remained unchanged in 1 (7.7%) and worsened in 1 (7.7%). Only 5 of the 24 patients (20.8%) developed immediate postoperative dizziness, which resolved within a month. The caloric tests identified 7 (29.2%) patients with normal reflexes, 8 (33.3%) with unilateral areflexia or hyporeflexia, 3 (12.5%) with bilateral hyporeflexia, and 6 (25%) with bilateral vestibular loss (BVL). Electrical stimulation affected both ears and interfered with the progression of postural recovery after CI activation, which led to a significant improvement in CDP values over the course of 1 year of follow-up. At the end of the study, the mean values of the conditions assessed by CDP were higher in individuals who had responded to caloric tests than in individuals with BVL. The better postural performance of subjects with BVL may be due to better use of visual information. CONCLUSION: The presence or absence of CT response was a decisive determinant of balance outcomes over the year after surgery. The absence of post-caloric response in preoperative assessment resulted in a worse prognosis in the evolution of body balance. However, patients with BVL were able to use the visual information for postural stabilization with improvement in the Composite Score. It is essential that vestibular assessment findings be documented before CI surgery because a patient\'s prognosis in terms of learning skills and postural recovery over time depends on this information

A obesidade e a síndrome metabólica têm aumentado em proporções preocupantes em nível mundial. Além das consequências sistêmicas, a obesidade e suas comorbidades também têm sido relacionadas com a condição bucal. O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar a progressão de lesões cariosas, presença de biofilme dentário, fluxo salivar e presença de saburra lingual em indivíduos eutróficos, sendo avaliados em dois momentos e portadores de síndrome metabólica antes e após a cirurgia bariátrica. A amostra foi constituída por 150 indivíduos, divididos em dois grupos: grupo controle (GC: 75) e grupo obeso (GO: 75), ambos avaliados em T0 e T1, sendo GC 6 meses após a primeira avaliação e GO 6 meses após a cirurgia bariátrica. A avaliação antropométrica dos indivíduos foi realizada por meio do IMC e circunferência da cintura. Os índices ICDAS II e CPOD foram utilizados para avaliar a progressão da cárie dentária. O método de fluorescência verde (QLF- Quantitative Light-induced Fluorescence) avaliou a perda mineral nas superfícies lisas dos dentes e presença de biofilme dentário. O fluxo salivar estimulado foi avaliado em mL/min. O Índice de Saburra Lingual foi utilizado para a avaliação da presença de saburra na língua. Para análise estatística, utilizou-se os testes Qui Quadrado, Exato de Fisher, Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis e Regressão Logística Múltipla, adotando nível de significância de 5%. Os resultados mostraram que houve diferença significativas entre os grupos, GC apresentou maior número de dentes hígidos (p=0,038) e dentes sem alteração no esmalte (p=0,005) quando comparado ao GO. Ao comparar GC e GO no T1, verificou-se que houve diferença significativa em relação ao CPOD (p<0,0001), dentes restaurados (p<0,0001) e área da lesão (Ws) (p=0,045), sendo as piores condições encontradas encontradas em GO. Observou-se que houve diferença significativa entre a perda mineral e quantidade de biofilme dentário por fluorescência entre os grupos, mas não entre T0 e T1. Diante dos resultados, podese concluir que indivíduos portadores de síndrome metabólica, comparado com os eutróficos, apresentam maior número de lesões cariosas antes e após a cirurgia bariátrica. No presente estudo a cirurgia bariátrica não interferiu na progressão das lesões cariosas, todavia, destaca-se a necessidade de abordagem multiprofissional e contínua, atuando na prevenção de doenças e atenção odontológica. / Obesity and the metabolic syndrome have increased in alarming proportions at world level. Apart from systemic consequences, obesity and its comorbidities have also been related to the oral condition. The aim of this study was to identify the caries lesion progression, presence of dental biofilm, the salivary flow and tongue coating in eutrophic individuals, being evaluated in two moments and individuals with metabolic syndrome before and after undergoing bariatric surgery. The sample consisted of 150 individuals divided into two groups: Control Group (CG: 75) and Obese Group (OG): 75, both evaluated in T0 and T1; CG being evaluated six months after T0, and EG, 6 months after bariatric surgery. Anthropometric assessment of individuals was made by means of BMI and waist circumference measurement. The ICDAS II and DMFT indices were used for evaluating the progression of dental caries. The Quantitative Light-induced Fluorescence (QLF) method, for evaluating mineral loss on the smooth tooth surfaces and the presence for dental biofilm. The stimulated salivary flow was evaluated in mL/min. The Winkel tongue coating index (WTCI) was used to evaluate the presence of tongue coating. For statistical analysis, the Chi- Square, Fishers Exact, Kruskal-Wallis and Multiple Logistic Regression tests were used, adopting a significance level of 5%. The results showed statistical difference between the groups: CG presented a higher; number of healthy teeth (p=0.038) and teeth without changes in enamel (p=0.005) when compared to OG. When comparing CG and EG after the second evaluation (T1), statistically significant difference was verified in relation to DMFT (p<0.0001), restored teeth (p<0.0001) and lesion area (Ws) (p=0.045), being the worst conditions found in OG. It was observed that there was a significant difference between mineral loss and the quantity dental biofilm by fluorescence between groups, but not between T0 and T1. In view of the results, the authors concluded that patients with metabolic syndrome, compared to eutrophic, have a higher number of caries lesions before and after bariatric surgery. In the present study, bariatric surgery did not influence in caries lesion progression, however, highlights the necessity to a continuous multi professional approach to acting in the prevention of diseases and dental care.

Uma questão de pesquisa e intervenção diz respeito às condições sob as quais estes repertórios se estabelecem e se expandem a partir do uso do IC. Este estudo teve como objetivo verificar se implantados cocleares pré-linguais aprenderiam relações condicionais entre palavra ditada e figura (AB) e entre figura e palavra impressa (BC) via exclusão; e se a aprendizagem destas relações seria condição para a emergência de relações transitivas (AC) e simétricas (CB), para a nomeação de figuras (BD) e de palavras impressas (CD) e para o responder generalizado diante das mesmas palavras ditadas no ensino (voz feminina de adulto), mas com outra intensidade e freqüência de voz (voz masculina de adulto e de criança). Foram realizados dois estudos com objetivos semelhantes, porém, com uma diferença procedimental. No Estudo 1, três crianças entre seis e sete anos de idade, com surdez pré-lingual e usuárias de IC modelo Nucleus 24k foram expostas a tarefas de emparelhamento de acordo com o modelo, pelo software MTS®. As sessões foram realizadas individualmente e gravadas em fitas VHS para registro e análise das vocalizações. O procedimento iniciava com o Pré-treino e, posteriormente, o repertório inicial era avaliado no Pré-teste, a partir do qual eram escolhidos os estímulos que participariam do ensino e testes subseqüentes. O procedimento de ensino da linha de base (AB e BC) foi o ensino por exclusão. Após a aquisição da linha de base, eram conduzidos testes de formação de classes (AC e CB), seguidos pelos testes de generalização, de nomeação de figuras (BD) e de palavras... / Prelingual acquired deafness (prelingual deafness) may present hearing detection achieved for the first time stemming from the activation of the cochlear implant (CI), although the hearing and speaking repertories require learning. A case of research and intervention describes the conditions in which these repertories are established and expand from the use of CI. The present study aimed to verify if prelingual cochlear implanted subjects, would learn conditional discriminations between the dictated word and the picture (AB) and between the picture and the printed word (BC) by exclusion; and if learning these discriminations would be a condition for the emergence of transitive relations (AC) and symmetric (CB), for the nomination of pictures (BD) and printed words (CD) and for answering in a general way, facing the same words dictated when teaching (adult female voice), with different intensity and voice frequency (male voice of adult and child). Two studies, with similar objectives were realized, employing a different procedure. In study n° 1, three children whose ages ranged from six to seven years of age, with prelingual deafness and users of CI, model Nucleus 24k were exposed to matching-to-sample, according to the model, using software MTS®. The sessions were realized individually and recorded in VHS for registering and analysis of the vocalizations. The procedure started with the Pre-training and afterwards, the initial repertory was evaluated on the Pre-test and then the stimuli were selected in order to take part of the teaching and subsequent tests. The baseline teaching procedure (AB and BC) was by exclusion. After the acquisition of the baseline, classes of equivalent stimuli tests were conducted (AC and CB), followed by the generalization tests, nomination of pictures (BD) and words (CD).

Negation is a common property of languages, in that there are few languages, if any, that lack means to revert the truth-value of a statement. A challenge to cross-lingual studies of negation lies in the fact that languages encode and use it in different ways. Although this variation has been extensively researched in linguistics, little has been done in automated language processing. In particular, we lack computational models of processing negation that can be generalized across language. We even lack knowledge of what the development of such models would require. These models however exist and can be built by means of existing cross-lingual resources, even when annotated data for a language other than English is not available. This thesis shows this in the context of detecting string-level negation scope, i.e. the set of tokens in a sentence whose meaning is affected by a negation marker (e.g. 'not'). Our contribution has two parts. First, we investigate the scenario where annotated training data is available. We show that Bi-directional Long Short Term Memory (BiLSTM) networks are state-of-the-art models whose features can be generalized across language. We also show that these models suffer from genre effects and that for most of the corpora we have experimented with, high performance is simply an artifact of the annotation styles, where negation scope is often a span of text delimited by punctuation. Second, we investigate the scenario where annotated data is available in only one language, experimenting with model transfer. To test our approach, we first build NEGPAR, a parallel corpus annotated for negation, where pre-existing annotations on English sentences have been edited and extended to Chinese translations. We then show that transferring a model for negation scope detection across languages is possible by means of structured neural models where negation scope is detected on top of a cross-linguistically consistent representation, Universal Dependencies. On the other hand, we found cross-lingual lexical information only to help very little with performance. Finally, error analysis shows that performance is better when a negation marker is in the same dependency substructure as its scope and that some of the phenomena related to negation scope requiring lexical knowledge are still not captured correctly. In the conclusions, we tie up the contributions of this thesis and we point future work towards representing negation scope across languages at the level of logical form as well.

A língua de lagartos é estrutura componente do sistema sensorial fundamental para o forrageio. Desta forma, o presente estudo buscou investigar a estrutura morfo-histológica da língua de cinco espécies de lagartos brasileiros (Ameiva ameiva, Hemidactylus mabouia, Aspronema dorsivittatum, Ophiodes striatus e Tropidurus torquatus) e sua relação com os tipos de forrageio. Foram analisados o formato e comprimento de língua e confeccionadas lâminas histológicas coradas com HE e PAS, de exemplares das cinco espécies. As espécies estudadas apresentaram revestimento de epitélio pavimentoso estratificado queratinizado, com variações topográficas na espessura da camada córnea. Ameiva ameiva apresentou a língua mais especializada e restrita ao forrageio ativo, enquanto Hemidactylus mabouia e Tropidurus torquatus apresentaram língua com estrutura menos favorável ao “tongue-flicking” e, portanto, mais próximo de forrageio de emboscada. As espécies Ophiodes striatus e Aspronema dorsivittatum apresentaram resultados característicos tanto de forrageio ativo quanto de emboscada, demonstrando uma provável plasticidade entre estes extremos. Esta flutuação entre tipos de forrageio já foi observada dentro do antigo gênero Mabuya a partir de estudos prévios que indicam que fatores como disponibilidade de alimento e alterações de habitat são capazes de alterar a dinâmica de forrageio de algumas espécies. No presente estudo foi possível relacionar aspectos como tipos de papilas, formato de língua, arranjo muscular, camada de queratina, presença de botões gustativos, entre outros, com a provável dinâmica de forrageio das cinco espécies estudadas. O arranjo muscular encontrado nos forrageadores ativos foi considerado mais compacto e direcionado ao “tongue-flicking”, enquanto o dos forrageadores de emboscada o arranjo muscular se mostra menos restrito. A análise das características externas e microscópicas da língua trouxeram grandes contribuições para o entendimento de como cada espécie, por exemplo, otimiza a sua percepção do ambiente, como percebe o tempo e seu gasto energético. Além disso, contribui com maiores informações a cerca da morfologia e ecologia de espécies ocorrentes no Brasil. / The Squamata reptiles have a sophisticated sensory system, frequently adapted to the environment in which they live and the activities performed in their foraging. The tongue lizards is a fundamental structure of the sensory system for foraging. Thus, this study sought investigate the morphological and histological tongue structure of five species of Brazilian lizards (Ameiva ameiva, Hemidactylus maboiua, Aspronema dorsivittatum, Ophiodes striatus e Tropidurus torquatus) and its relationship with ambush and active foraging. For that, were analyzed the shape and elongation and made histological slides of language specimens of the five species and colored by HE and PAS. The tongue of all species showed stratified squamous keratinized epithelium, with the keratin layer varying in thickness and position in the tongue. Ameiva ameiva showed the most specialized tongue and restricted to wile foraging, while H. mabouia and T. torquatus presented tongue with less favorable to “tongue-flicking” and therefore closest to ambush foraging structure. The O. striatus and A. dorsivittatum specie showed characteristics of both foraging types, showing a probable plasticity between the extremes of wile and ambush foraging. This fluctuation between types of foraging has been observed within the old genus Mabuya from previous studies that indicate that factors such as food availability and habitat changes are able to alter the dynamics of some species foraging. In the present study it was possible to relate aspects such as types of papillae, tongue shape, muscular arrangement, keratin layer, among others, with the possible dynamics of foraging the five species. The muscle arrangement found in active foragers was considered more compact and focused for the “tongue-flicking”, while the ambush foragers muscle arrangement shown less restricted. And stand out from other factors such as the presence of taste buds. The analysis of external and microscopic characteristics of the tongue provided great contributions to the understanding of how the lizard optimizes its environment perception, as realize the time and its energy expenditure. Also contributes with more information about the morphology and ecology of species occurring in Brazil.
