Event-based sensing and communication holds the promise of lower resource utilization and/or better performance for remote state estimation applicationsin e.g networked control systems (NCS). However, the problem of designing an optimal event-based state estimator often becomes untractable due to nonlinear measurements. This complexity is avoided with stochastic event-triggering. In this work, we
”Varje läkare, vare sig han är i allmän tjänst eller enskilt utövar läkaryrket, åligger att i överensstämmelse med vetenskap och beprövad erfarenhet meddela patient de råd och, såvitt möjligt, den behandling, som patientens tillstånd fordrar,”Begreppet vetenskap och beprövad erfarenhet har åtminstone sedan 1800-talet följt svenska läkare, inte minst genom ovanstående bestämmelse i de läkarinstrukt
Sedan den första Harry Potter-boken publicerades år 1997 har intresset för fantasylitteratur ökat lavinartat. Miljoner av barn, ungdomar och vuxna har följt sina mest omtyckta fantasyhjältar och –hjältinnor på deras äventyr in i magiska världar, där verklighetens lagar utmanas, överskrids och ställs på ända. Men vad kan läsare lära sig om sin egen värld via karaktärernas upptäcksresor in i de magi
We consider the problem of localizing a novel image in a large 3D model, given that the gravitational vector is known. In principle, this is just an instance of camera pose estimation, but the scale of the problem introduces some interesting challenges. Most importantly, it makes the correspondence problem very difficult so there will often be a significant number of outliers to handle. To tackle
Multiple exciton generation (MEG) is a process in which more than one electron hole pair is generated per absorbed photon. It allows us to increase the efficiency of solar energy harvesting. Experimental studies have shown the multiple exciton generation yield of 1.2 in isolated colloidal quantum dots. However real photoelectric devices require the extraction of electron hole pairs to electric con
Andelen av befolkningen som bor på landsbygen minskar kontinuerligt samtidigt som det finns en stark politiks önskan att bevara en livskraftig landsbygd. I rapporten identifierar vi samhällsnyttor av att människor lever, bor och verkar på landsbygden med utgångspunkt i begreppet landsbygdsnytta. Vilka av dessa nyttor kan motivera en specifik landsbygdspolitik för att dessa nyttor ska bevaras?
Phase-change heat transfer enhancement is of critical importance to meet high cooling demands. Recently, surface engineering (surface modification) is emerged as a promising heat transfer enhancement method, especially with the development of nanotechnology. Surface parameters such as wettability, surface roughness and porosity are modified by surface engineering. This work aims to discuss the parPhase-change heat transfer enhancement is of critical importance to meet high cooling demands.

Background: Diet has a great impact on the risk of developing features of metabolic syndrome (MetS), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We evaluated whether a long-term healthy Nordic diet (ND) can modify the expression of inflammation and lipid metabolism-related genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) during a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in
Screening strategies need to consider differences in late-stage disease detection linked to socio-demographic and geographic factors. We specifically addressed disparity in melanoma stage at diagnosis linked to residential municipality, gender and marital status within the middle- and old-age population of southern and western Sweden. Population-based registers were used to identify the melanoma c
INTRODUCTION: Non-native linguistic tone learning ability has been found to be influenced by the anatomy of primary auditory regions in the left hemisphere (Wong et al., 2008). In native speakers, however, where phonemic categories are firmly established, variations in the macrostructure of more secondary auditory processing areas might be expected to affect performance. The present study investig
Digital research data is often advanced as a trouble-free concept and used to describe the material of research at all stages in a research process. However frequently such framing lacks understanding of the roles of disciplinary and organisational cultures, and of what the various practices, including those of funding policy and university administration, involved in shaping what research data ar
In this work, we propose a computationally efficient algorithm for estimating multi-dimensional spectral lines. The method treats the data tensor's dimensions separately, yielding the corresponding frequency estimates for each dimension. Then, in a second step, the estimates are ordered over dimensions, thus forming the resulting multidimensional parameter estimates. For high dimensional data, the
Desulfovibrio salexigens strain Mastl was isolated from the oxic/anoxic interface of a marine sediment. Growth under sulfate-reducing conditions was accompanied by polyglucose accumulation in the cell with every substrate tested. Highest polyglucose storage was found with glucose (0.8–1.0 g polyglucose (g protein)−1), but the growth rate with this substrate was very low (0.015 h−1). Anaerobically
Background: In a global perspective, bacterial infections are still a major cause of morbidity and mortality; therefore, effective antibiotics are needed. However, the emergence of antibiotic resistance due to irrational use has now become a serious public health problem. Hence, the objective of this study was to analyse the association of regulatory aspects with antibiotic consumption. Methods: A
