A method is developed for the computation of depth maps, modulo scale, from one single image of a polyhedral scene. Only affine shape properties of the scene and image are used, hence no metrical information. Results from simple experiments show good performance, with exactness and robustness. It is also shown how the underlying theory may be used to single out and characterise certain singular si

Abnormal eating behaviors are overrepresented in the autism spectrum disorders, including food refusal, pica, rumination, and selective eating. Those disturbances can have detrimental complications and are often resistant to treatment. In autism spectrum disorders the background factors to eating disturbances are more complex than in the general child population, and sensory abnormalities, rituali

One important task for the librarians at Physics and Astronomy Library at Lund University is to teach the students about the library and its resources. The traditional lectures and tours of the library just weren’t working. The library competes with many other introductory activities, such as general orientation, and social events. The aim of the Treasure Hunt is to present the library in a useful

On site remote laser-induced fluorescence measurements have been performed with application towards non-movable objects. This paper describes the application of non-invasive hyperspectral fluorescence imaging to two masonry monuments, the Coliseum and the Lateran Baptistery in Rome, during a joint Italian-Swedish experiment. The mobile systems of Lund Institute of Technology, Sweden, and CNR-IFAC,

According to the traditional view, the relation between morphology and syntax is the following: while morphology builds up word forms—typically by combining roots with other roots and with affixes, but also by applying other operations to them, syntax takes fully inflected words as input and combines them into phrases and sentences. The division of labour between morphology and syntax is thus perf

The 10th Nordic TAG conference fell together with the 150th anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin’s seminal On the Origin of Species as well as the 200th anniversary of his birth. Over the last 15 years a new theoretical discourse on the use of evolutionary theory in archaeology has emerged, but this has largely bypassed the Scandinavian countries, despite the fact that Scandinavian arc

Experiments on dry face turning offunctionallygraded heat treatable steel are conducted. The workpieces have a hardened zone of approx. 60 HRC and a non-hardened zone of approx. 30 HRC. PCBN tools are used with different feeds, cutting speeds and depths of cut. Measurements of residual stresses in the surface layer reveal compressive stresses in the hardened zone and tensile stresses in the non-ha
