The project analyzes, implements, and tests different types of heterogeneous sensor fusion, and comparatively checks them against a ground truth. Four different cases are tested, only image data, only non-image data, sequential fusion of data, and parallel fusion of data. The tracking is done with a probabilistic data association filter, which is a variation of the standard Kalman filter. The met

Our study sought to reveal whether social power affects Facebook behaviour in a similar manner that it affects behaviour in the real world. We predicted that participants in the high power condition would be more active on Facebook compared to both low power and control conditions, while low power participants would be less active on Facebook. Participants in the experimental condition went throug

Påföljden för mord ändrades år 2009 och en mer nyanserad påföljdsmodell infördes. Tidigare hade påföljden för mord antingen varit fängelse i 10 år eller på livstid, men nu infördes istället en modell, som gav domstolarna mer utrymme att utdöma tidsbestämda fängelsestraff mellan 10 och 18 år samt på livstid. Rättspraxis har förändrats under årens lopp, men genomgående har det uttalats att livstidThe penalty for murder was modified in 2009 and a more nuanced model of penalty was introduced. Earlier the penalty for murder either was prison being jailed for 10 years or life imprisonment, but now there instead was a model introduced that gave the courts more space to judge fixed term sentences between 10 and 18 years as well as for life imprisonment. Case law has been changed over the years,

Den teknik som undersöks i detta projekt kallas Immunostimulating Interstitial Laser Thermotherapy (imILT), och är en teknik ämnad åt destruktion av cancertumörer. Denna teknik, så som många andra, baseras på hur värme genereras då ljus absorberas i vävnad. Målet med imILT-tekniken är att öka temperaturen vid tumörens kant till 46°C och bibehålla denna under en förutbestämd tid. På detta sätt dA common tool for tissue ablation is the use of heat. For the imILT technique investigated in this project, the heat is induced by the usage of laser light. The light is absorbed by the tissue and is thus turned into heat, the amount absorbed depends on the optical properties of the tissue, such as absorption and scattering. In imILT such as in other laser based ablation techniques, optical fibers

This qualitative case study focused on three companies from three different industries, all representing a different sized employer in Finland. What the companies have in common, is that they are all female-dominated. The study aimed to provide a description on the problems that these employers in female-dominated industries face, when it comes to paid maternity leave. To answer this question, the

Despite the fact that mindfulness has been gaining a lot of interest and is now being researched in different fields to examine the relevance of it to both physical and psychological health, little to almost nothing has been done in relation to everyday decision making. The present study aims to examine the link of mindfulness and decision making, as well as to identify the possible socio-demograp

To colonize novel environments, species need to adapt. However, if suitable phenotypes are not already present in the population, the population may go extinct before adaptive mutations emerge. Phenotypic plasticity offers a mechanism for species to mitigate effects of selection and to maintain a viable population size under stressful conditions. This may in turn increase the chances of future ada

The release of Beyoncé’s 2016 visual album Lemonade was one of the most talked about pop culture moments of the year. The album went on to become the highest-selling album of the year. Aside from commercial acclaim, the album was also successful in generating much talk within various circles about its focus on Black women and its political nature. The album’s release came at the height of increase

This research touches upon the influence of the museum as a media and the scepticist political framing of climate change in a U.S. context. By use of a two-step methodological approach, the thesis attempts to create a framework by which to understand the inner workings of the scepticist framing from a qualitative perspective. The thesis approaches the case from the onset that the case is the resul

Det är vanligt att märka ut produkter med ett visst märke men gränsdragningen mellan certifiering, standardisering och märkning av produkter är inte enkel att göra. Det finns inte någon enhetlig definition av certifiering men i rättspraxis, Kommissionens riktlinjer samt i Konkurrensverkets rapport definieras certifiering som att en produkt bedöms enligt en viss förutbestämd standard och att ett inCertifying products with the purpose to better position products on the market is common. To distinguishing certification from standardization and labeling of products is difficult. There is no uniform definition of certification. According to case law, the Commission's guidelines, and the Swedish Competition Authority's report; certification is defined as a product being assessed accordin

In this thesis essay I am going to study articles in two British newspapers to see if there is a connection between immigration and the Brexit referendum which took place on the 23rd of June 2016. The Brexit referendum was followed by a great media spectacle and each side campaigned to try to win over the voters. Finally, the leave side won with 52,5% against 47,5% voting to stay. I studied ten ar

Prostitutionspolitiken i Sverige har sedan sent 1900-tal fokuserat på att kriminalisera köp av sex och att arbeta preventivt för att förhindra att människor hamnar i prostitution. På senare år har dock några av de partipolitiska ungdomsförbunden ändrat inställning och vill istället legalisera sexköp. Prostitutionspolitik är ofta kopplat till kvinnofrågor och därmed feministisk ideologi. I uppsatse

Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka polisens användning av informatörer och infiltratörer utifrån ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv. En informatör är en från polisverksamheten helt fristående person som ingår i eller har kontakt med ett kriminellt nätverk. Informatören lämnar värdefull information om det kriminella nätverket till polisen i syfte att underlätta polisens brottsbekämpning. InfilThe purpose of this essay is to explore the use of informers and infiltrators by the police through a legal certainty point of view. An informer is a person that is completely detached from police authority and part of or in contact with a criminal network. The informer provides the police with valuble information about the criminal network in order to ease the fight against crime. In contrast, th

Denna studie handlar om musiklärares kompetensutveckling på arbetsplatsen. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur musiklärare använder sig av kollegialt lärande för att utveckla undervisningen. Syftet är också att ta reda på vad kollegialt lärande innebär för musiklärare. Det empiriska materialet består av kvalitativa intervjuer som spelats in och transkriberats. Informanterna i denna studie är

This thesis explores the right to access employment for persons with disabilities under the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. It seeks to ascertain what entitlements and for whom this right entails. Given the central conceptual role disability and equality play in the Convention, this thesis explores the prevailing models of understanding of both disability and equality. Af

In this paper, we addressed whether cellular RNA binding proteins TIAR, hnRNP C1 and HuR induce HPV 16 late gene expression by interacting with elements of the viral genome that regulate splicing and polyadenylation. Pathogenesis and progression to HPV infected lesion is regulated by the viral gene expression program and it has been previously shown that several RNA binding proteins have an effect

Building codes around the world give extensive guidance on how to design straight stairways, and engineering guidelines provide methods to calculate movement speed and population flow in these. Less guidance is provided for spiral stairways. By conducting experiments down spiral stairways, enough data was collected to derive equations for calculating both movement speed and population flow down sp

Despite the growing volume of available transportation data and the efforts of many cities to increase cycling levels, there remains a lack of data on where people cycle. The use of GPS trajectories have now been used in cycle studies for several years, and more recently large, crowdsourced datasets of GPS recorded cycle trips have become available and of interest to transportation and planning de
