As computer systems grow larger and more complex, the task of maintaining the system and finding potential security threats or other malfunctions become increasingly hard. Traditionally, this has had to be done by manually examining the logs. In modern systems, this can become infeasible due to either the large amount of logs or the complexity of the system. By using machine learning based anomaly

I vårt universum finns det ett nästan ändlöst antal extra-solära planeter, så kallade exoplaneter. Den första planeten utanför vårt solsystem upptäcktes 1995 och antalet har ökat drastiskt sedan dess. Ett av de vanligaste sätten att upptäcka exoplaneter är genom att använda transitmetoden. När en planet är i omloppsbana runt en stjärna så kan det hända att planeten blockerar en del ljus som stjärnThe first planet orbiting a main-sequence star was discovered in 1995. Since then more than 4000 additional exoplanets have been discovered. This is a rapidly evolving field in astrophysics. One of the most common ways to detect an exoplanet is through transit, as the brightness of the host star decreases. The transit method is suitable for surveying a large number of stars at the same time and mo

Shared micro-mobility services are increasingly embraced by cities around the world in recent years. Their benefits over other transportation modes in certain frames encourage traffic/urban planners, public authorities to establish such systems in urban areas.
