Machine learning algorithms for myoelectric pattern recognition require substantial user-specific training data, limiting broader applications of electromyography (EMG) in human–computer interfacing. Here, we present a framework for EMG-mediated motor intent decoding designed to function for new users without collecting user-specific training data. We introduce a Transformer-based architecture, te
Most forensic psychiatric patients are diagnosed with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Psychotherapy is recognized as an important part of treatment for this patient population, yet no clinical guidelines exist. This mixed-method systematic review aimed to evaluate the scope, quality, and findings of psychotherapy research involving this population. Following the Joanna Briggs Institute
Introduction: Oxidating fat as an energy substrate requires more oxygen than utilizing carbohydrates and can be acutely increased by hyperoxia. Therefore, substrate utilization may affect endurance performance and gas consumption in divers, but previous research is limited. This study aimed to evaluate changes in maximal fat oxidation (MFO) in navy divers during training. Methods: Seven explosive
Sex differences in cutaneous melanoma (CM) survival are pronounced. It is unclear how these differences impact the loss in life expectancy (LLE). A population-based cohort from the Swedish Melanoma registry was used to analyze sex differences in life expectancy (LE) and LLE following a CM diagnosis. The cohort included 12,893 men and 12,572 women aged 40 years or above diagnosed with a first invas
Uppsatsen undersöker hur metaforer används som retoriska och meningsskapande resurser i svensk kriminaljournalistik genom en analys av Dagens nyheters reportage ”Så byggde Rawa Majid maktpyramiden som gjorde barn till mördare” (Mosesson 2023). Reportaget publicerades under den period som i medier benämns som ”våldsvågen”, ett begrepp som i sig utgör en metafor. Mot denna bakgrund analyseras hur me
Arbetet är en rättsvetenskaplig studie som med en rättsdogmatisk metod analyserar företagsbeskattningen av svenska vinstutdelande livförsäkringsföretag i ljuset av reglerna om global minimiskatt (Pelare Två) och det svenska genomförandet av reglerna i tilläggsskattelagen. Mer specifikt behandlas hur den effektiva skattesatsen för sådana företag ska beräknas, med fokus på huruvida den svenska avkas
Se huset är ett examensarbete i arkitektur där husägandet ses och presenteras om ett förvaltarskap. Ett omhändertagande. Med utgångspunkt från den svenska 60-talsvillans karaktär och tillblivelse utifrån en social och politisk kontext, lyfts uppkomst och konsekvenser av rådande attityd gentemot denna kategori av bostadshus. Undersökningen har styrts av frågor kring värden och bevarande länkat tilSe huset - See the house is a thesis presenting the ownership of the single-family house as a type of stewardship. An entrusted care. As a point of departure I have taken the Swedish villa from the 60s, with its characteristics and the social and political context of its development, and looked into the consequences of attitudes towards this category of housing. My inquiry is led by questions of
Syfte Studien undersöker hur kulturmiljön under en kulturvärdesrestaurering hanterats, både under projektering och produktion fram till idag. Tyngden i studien ligger på beslut, kommunikation och hantering av olika delar kopplade till kulturmiljön. Med ett mål att kunna lyfta fram vad som gjorts bra och vad som kan förbättras. Frågeställningar • Vilka utmaningar har uppstått i produktionen jämf
This project provides insight into microbial composition during pollen fermentation on a mix rye, maize and timothy pollen carried out by naturally occurring microorganisms. The effects of pH, temperature, rye pollen harvest and solvent are investigated by analysing fermentation profiles of several analytes obtained by UV-Vis and RID HPLC. Plating on MRS-plates showed significant growth of lactic
Strategies to claim Dalit human rights in Tamil Nadu, India This thesis analyzes interviews and ethnographic accounts from the Indian non-governmental organization (NGO) Equity Justice which works with Dalit human rights in Tamil Nadu. It examines the strategies by the NGO since many Dalits usually lacks knowledge about their rights and how they can be claimed. The main subjects are discrimination
The dietary supplement (DS) market, along with the topic of health optimization, is continuously growing. Simultaneously the time, money and health investments of consumers are increasing, which makes the motivations of the consumption a relevant topic to investigate. Research has not sufficiently explored the intersection of governmentality, DS, young women and the modern context they live in. Th
K-pop has become one of the most influential forces in the music industry that create commercially significant human brands with a significant amount of fan base. Traditionally, consumer-brand relationship (CBR) literature has focused on how consumers interact with product brands grounded on a Western individualistic and dyadic perspective. However, this framework does not adequately explain how c
Kriminalpolitik har under de senaste decennierna fått en central roll i svensk politik, där frågor om brott, trygghet och samhällsordning blivit framträdande i den offentliga debatten. Samtidigt visar forskning att kriminalitet inte enbart kan förstås utifrån faktiska brottsnivåer, utan också som ett resultat av sociala och politiska processer där problem definieras och ges mening. Mot denna bakgr
Droughts are intensifying under climate change and increasingly threaten the carbon and water functions of global forests, yet the factors that determine forest resilience to drought remain debated. Resistance—the capacity to withstand a drought—and recovery—the capacity to return to pre-drought function—are two complementary components of resilience that may be shaped differently by forest integr
Methane (CH₄) emissions from landfills are a key uncertainty in Sweden’s national greenhouse gas inventory. This thesis evaluates whether UAV-based CH₄ measurements can complement inventory-based estimates, using Filborna landfill in southern Sweden as a case study. UAV-derived emissions from 2022–2024 were compared with an IPCC Tier 2 First Order Decay model, reproduced from Sweden’s national inv
The consequences of climate change include an increased risk of landslides, erosion and flooding of buildings in cities. Swedish municipalities have a planning monopoly, which means they have autonomy over urban planning and consequently a responsibility to climate-adapt their cities. It is not enough to focus solely on reducing emissions, climate adaptation measures must also be implemented. To m
På Skånetrafikens tåg och bussar finns skärmar där resenärer kan ta del av information, reklam och nyheter. I den här uppsatsen undersöks de nyhetstexter som visas på Skånetrafikens skärmar. Nyhetstexterna skapas av ett företag som heter Mobile Content och omarbetas från artiklar från TT Nyhetsbyrån. Syftet är att ta reda på hur lätta eller svåra nyhetstexterna är, vad som underförstås i texterna
Crisis communication research has mostly treated crises as isolated events met with reactive responses. Coombs’ (2025) Situational Crisis Communication Theory (SCCT) and Benoit’s (2024) Image Repair Theory (IRT) being one of the most established theories within crisis communication studies has helped well-establish guidance in the post-crisis stage. However, less is known about the period before a
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how marketing professionals make sense of the ethical and CSR implications of using GenAI in marketing and how they assign responsibility for its potential consequences. Exploring further and understanding the gap between organizational obligations and individuals' ethical judgment is crucial to developing effective strategies for responsib
This thesis reconstructs a concept of social beauty from the sociological aesthetics of Georg Simmel in order to explore its normative potential for a critique of late-modern forms of sociality. The thesis makes four principal contributions. First, it develops a concept of social beauty as a distinct experience of social integration and vitality emerging in interactions between strangers. These in
