To do this a complete pipeline was developed, consisting of background filtering, clustering, tracking, labeling and visualization. The objects that were focused on were pedestrians, cyclists, cars and animals, in different environments. Background segmentation and

This Bachelor’s thesis attempts to provide a better understanding of how US government-funded development agencies justify their funding, how that process is conducted, and in what ways it relates to the actual practice of development.

This Bachelor's degree project investigates how sofas can reach longer life span through circular design. It follows the steps of a classic design development process, from research and ideation to a final prototype. The result is Remain, a modular sofa that can be assembled, disassembled and reassembled multiple times enabling reuse, repair, refurbishment and recycling.

Although most individuals consider gambling to be an innocent and fun activity, when it develops into problem gambling (PG), it can have detrimental outcomes to one’s life, such as over-indebtedness. This study explores the role of maladaptive personality traits and gender in both PG and over-indebtedness, in an online sample of 1479 adult gamblers in Sweden. Participants were administered the Pro

The article uses conceptual metaphor theory in order to analyse how the concept of “copy” in copyright law is expanding in a digital society to cover more phenomena than it originally did. For this purpose, the legally accepted model for valuing media files in the case against The Pirate Bay (TPB) is used in the analysis. When four men behind TPB was convicted in District Court of Stockholm, Swede

To evaluate the influence of hard exudates on macular function in patients with diabetic retinopathy. METHODS: Thirty seven eyes from 27 diabetic patients, aged 57 +/- 14 years, diabetes duration 12.5 +/- 9 years, not previously treated with photocoagulation, underwent fundus photography, multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). Hard exudates were graded from

In the field of second language acquisition (SLA) it is an important question, which role the native language assumes in the acquisition of another language. Studies have shown that there exists a native language influence on a phonological and lexical level. The situation in syntax is however different. Here a native language influence (transfer) is not self-evident.

Uppsatsen undersöker den skönlitterära läsupplevelsen i applikationen Iceberg Reader för Iphone. Vid uppsatsens tillkomst var läsapplikationer för Iphone och Ipad något nylanserat i Sverige, och få läsare hade erfarenhet av läsning via denna plattform. Med hjälp av två kvalitativa undersökningar – en enkät, där nio personer deltog, och en fokusgruppsundersökning, där fem av de nio var med – har vi

Susceptibility Weighted Imaging is an MRI- and post-processing technique that utilize the phase information from the MR signal to enhance the contrast in areas with different susceptibility than surrounding tissue in T2*-weighted images. This technique is becoming more and more important as a clinical tool. Susceptibility-weighted imaging has been commercialized by Siemens Healthcare under the acr
