Reflections on the impact of Covid-19 and the subsequent state measures on migrant workers.

We present a localization algorithm for low-power long-range Internet-of-things (IoT) networks, which exploits angle of arrival (AoA) and range information from non-coherent received signal strength (RSS) measurements. In this work, each anchor node is equipped with array antennas of known geometry and radiation patterns. The position of the target node and the path-loss exponent to each anchor ar

The volume encompasses six conferences of Romanian academics (from Bratislava, Skopje, Bucharest, Iași and Alba Iulia) invited to Lund to hold conferences in English and French as part of Romanian language and literature research seminar series in the interval September 2015 – March 2017 on various topics: linguistics and etymology, literary world’s specificities, contemporary Romanian literature,

Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for automated classification of skin diseases are available to the con-sumer market. Studies of their diagnostic accuracy are rare. We assessed the diagnostic accuracy of an open-access AI application (Skin Image Search™) for recognition of skin diseases. Clinical images including tumours, infective and inflammatory skin diseases were collected at the Depart

Kapitlet lyfter fram frågan om mänskliga rättigheter i utvalda former och hur de påverkar migranters positioner. Ett svenskt exempel illustrerar de utmaningar som migranter står inför i termer av exkludering.

This presentation is on ultrafast photoluminescence recombination phenomena from black silicon consisting of quantum pillars produced by plasma ion etching. An ultrafast blue luminescence component competing with non-radiative recombination at surface defects was quantified as originating from the no-phonon recombination. This component involves two decay processes with a peak energy at around 480

The era of real-time radiotherapy is upon us. Robotic and gimbaled linac tracking are clinically established technologies with the clinical realization of couch tracking in development. Multileaf collimators (MLCs) are a standard equipment for most cancer radiotherapy systems, and therefore MLC tracking is a potentially widely available technology. MLC tracking has been the subject of theoretical

Background: [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET-CT) is a well-established modality in the work-up of patients with suspected or confirmed diagnosis of lung cancer. Recent research efforts have focused on extracting theragnostic and textural information from manually indicated lung lesions. Both semi-automatic and fully automatic use of artifici

The fuel inclination and wind velocity play a significant role on the forward flame spread behavior. It deserves further study since the heat transfer mechanism and flame spread characteristics coupled these two factors are not clear yet. In this paper, a thermally thin slab of PMMA that could be inclined from a horizontal (0°) to a vertical (90°) angle is used to investigate flame spread behavior

Objectives: Association between socio-demographic factors and dementia risk is studied in general but not for atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Methods: We studied AF patients ≥ 45 years in Sweden 1998–2012 (n = 537,513) using the Total Population Register for socio-demographic factors, the Swedish Cause of Death Register, and the National Patient Register (NPR) for incident dementia. Cox regress

Background and objectives: COVID-19 convalescent plasma is an experimental treatment against SARS-CoV-2. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of different pathogen reduction methods on the levels and virus neutralizing activity of the specific antibodies against SARS-CoV2 in convalescent plasma. Materials and methods: A total of 140 plasma doses collected by plasmapheresis from COVID-19 c
