Individual inventors have played an important role in shaping modern economic growth with their inventions. However, the upsurge in corporate and institutionalised research and development (R&D) has overshadowed the individual inventor in both academia and policy research. In Sweden, the individual inventor continues to provide socially and environmentally beneficial innovations that solve pro

Forskning visar nu entydigt att den globala genomsnittstemperaturen stiger och att antropogena växthusgasutsläpp i stor utsträckning är orsaken till detta. Medan klimatförändringen är en global angelägenhet, är det också en fråga om stor orättvisa. De utvecklade länderna har generellt sett bidragit mest till klimatförändringarna, men effekterna kommer att bli värre för dem som har bidragit minst. Scientific findings now unequivocally show that the global average temperature is rising and that anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions are largely responsible for this. While climate change is a global concern, it is also a concern of great injustice. Developed countries have generally contributed most to the climate changes, but the impacts will strike harder on those who have contributed least

Den fysiska handeln har ändrats handel via internet vilket är en utveckling från byteshandel som var en av de tidigaste handelsformerna. Sedan internet, och E-handelns, lansering i början av 1990-talet har utvecklingen gått snabbt och de senaste tjugo åren har omsättnThe fact that e-commerce has increased significantly in recent years has not gone unnoticed, and its features have been marked in both private life as well as in business. The physical commerce has changed to an increased shopping through the internet, which is a development of the trade of goods that was one of the earliest commercial forms. Since the internet, and thereby the E-commerce, was lau

Sammanfattning Handeln har traditionell sett haft sitt fäste i stadskärnorna men har sedan 1990-talet haft en svag utveckling i jämförelse med externhandeln och e-handeln. Externhandeln är förvisso pressad av konkurrensen från andra handelsplatser men är fortfarande en tuff konkurrent till cityhandeln. Trots detta har externhandeln expanderat de senaste åren och numera finns det köpcentrum och hanTraditionally, city commerce has always had a strong foothold in Swedish cities. However, in recent years the city commerce has experienced a weaker growth in comparison with external shopping and e-commerce. While the external shopping sector is experiencing competition from its own sector and e-commerce and struggles with an over-supply of malls it’s still a tough competitor to city commerce. De

The Asian tigers have been a tremendous case of economic success for decades. The economic financial crisis of 1997 put this to a test and they clearly passed it. This dissertation tries to unveil whether the same factors that led to the growth path in the 1960s, the so-called East Asian Miracle, are still responsible for overcoming the crisis. By means of factor analysis and a set of multivariate

Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att dels prova en ny observatörsskala, kallad TRICS, Therapist Relational and Interactional Competence Scale, för att mäta terapeuters förhållningssätt och beteende under en given terapisession och undersöka dess psykometriska egenskaper och dels undersöka bedömares subjektiva upplevelser av att använda skalan. Den psykometriska analysen baserades på tjugo videoi

In order to fight climate change and meet the Paris Agreement to keep the global temperature rise below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels, there is an urgent need to change the dominant way of producing and consuming energy worldwide. However, governing an energy transition is a complex and challenging task, as different actors and interests clash on different levels. In this study, I have a closer

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and pre-trained word embeddings have revolutionized the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) during the last years. In this project, CNNs are used on top of the Word2Vec word representation for a sentence classification task on medical research articles. Both individual networks for each category as well as a combined classification network are optimized

Despite this fact Malmö is depicted as a more dangerous city by the media, and this image of Malmö has been internalised by many. This study aims, using a qualitative method, to look into whether employees at the municipality of Ma
