Autistic persons often have difficulties with social interaction and communication. Sensory impressions are often processed differently than in neurotypicals. The person may be negatively affected bodily, e.g., being unstable or having reduced body awareness. The body awareness may be observed as an expression in movement quality. However, there is a lack of knowledge about experiences, assessment
While Bayesian Optimization (BO) is a very popular method for optimizing expensive black-box functions, it fails to leverage the experience of domain experts. This causes BO to waste function evaluations on bad design choices (e.g., machine learning hyperparameters) that the expert already knows to work poorly. To address this issue, we introduce Bayesian Optimization with a Prior for the Optimum
Some seabirds we encounter only fleetingly, as they fly by as we walk along the beach, or perhaps meet far out at sea when we take a boat trip. Others though we are more familiar with, such as the ‘seagulls’ that many will not even turn their head to appreciate. Yet, all seabirds have remarkable stories to tell, and we are fortunate now to live at a time where we can follow individual birds as theMost seabirds breed colonially, at which time they make central-place foraging trips. Parents must collect food both for themselves and for egg production/chick-rearing. How should they forage? I followed five species across two sites in Sweden in the Baltic Sea using GPS and time-depth recorder (TDR) devices, giving information on both flight and diving activity. I use a movement ecology approach
Predicting click-through rates (CTR) is essential for optimizing the effectiveness of mobile advertising campaigns, where accurate prediction of user interactions can significantly enhance revenue generation and ad targeting strategies. This thesis investigates the efficacy of different predictive models, using a dataset composed of impressions and interactions with mobile ads. The models examined
Popular Abstract in Swedish Min avhandling har fokuserat på att öka förståelsen för den ovanliga, allvarliga genetiska sjukdomen infantil malign osteopetros (IMO), med målet att utveckla genterapi som en ny behandlingsform för sjukdomen. IMO finns redan vid födseln och orsakas av att osteoklasterna, cellerna ansvariga för nedbrytning av ben, inte fungerar. Sjukdomen kan orsakas av flera olika gendThis thesis focuses on developing stem cell targeted gene therapy for the severe hereditary disorder Infantile Malignant Osteopetrosis (IMO) as well as increasing the understanding of how the genetic defect present in IMO affects the hematopoietic stem cells and hematopoiesis in general. IMO is a rare congenital disorder associated with an increased number of non-functional osteoclasts and the a
It is essential to gain knowledge about the causes and extent of migratory connectivity between stationary periods of migrants to further the understanding of processes affecting populations, and to allow efficient implementation of conservation efforts throughout the annual cycle. Avian migrants likely use optimal routes with respect to mode of locomotion, orientation and migration strategy, infl
Regenerative medicine offers a great prospect for curing diseases. Scientists are using direct conversion to reprogram fibroblasts, a kind of skin cell, into neurons in an attempt to cure Parkinson's disease. Even though successful conversion has been done with embryonic cells, a more practical method for future treatment would be to reprogram cells directly from the adult individual. It has h
Introduction:The XenX is a small animal irradiation system that acquires high-resolution cone-beam tomography (CBCT) images of small animals and treats small animals with higher precision than medical linear accelerators. MuriSlice is a software for CBCT image reconstruction. This thesis aims to optimise the CBCT image reconstruction protocol in MuriSlice to enable the segmentation of CBCT images
Att homosexuella personer har varit utsatta för diskriminering och särbehandling är ett samhällsproblem som har funnits en lång tid. Redan i de svenska medeltida lagarna kunde man se att det fanns ett förakt mot homosexualitet då det var kriminaliserat. På 1700-talet fanns en rädsla för homosexualitet vilket syntes i 1734 års lag där man undvek att reglera otuktsbrott i form av homosexualitet för
At midday, surface temperatures in the desert often exceed 60°C. To be active at this time, animals need extraordinary behavioural or physiological adaptations. Desert ants, for instance, spend up to 75% of their foraging time cooling down on elevated thermal refuges such as grass stalks [1]. Ball-rolling dung beetles work under similar thermal conditions in South African savannahs. After landing
Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen hos kvinnor. Ungefär var tionde kvinna i Sverige kommer någon gång under livet att drabbas. Även män kan insjukna, men det är mycket sällsynt. Indelning av bröstcancer i undergrupper Bröstcancersjukdomen kan indelas i olika undergrupper, så kallade subtyper, där ca 80 % av fallen kännetecknas av att vara hormonberoende och ha receptorer för kvinnliga köns

Popular Abstract in Swedish Leukemi, "det vita blodet", var ursprungligen en beskrivande diagnos på tillstånd där leukocyter (vita blodkroppar), eller snarare deras maligna, d.v.s. canceromvandlade former, tillväxte i sådan grad att de trängde undan andra blodbildande celler. I en sådan situation drabbas patienterna av blodbrist, infektioner och blödningar. Med tiden har vi lärt oss särskilja olikIn the present thesis, clinicogenetic correlations are investigated in a large population-based series of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and chronic myeloid leukemia, for which the karyotypes were analyzed at the same center. The karyotypic pattern, i.e. normal karyotype or 1, 2 or ³3 anomalies, does not differ between males and female
The principal aim of my PhD research is to think through practices involved in the making of In the Desert of Modernity. Colonial Planning and After (Berlin 2008, Casablanca 2009), that constituted as well as traversed the exhibitions and went beyond. The project developed through a transnational constellation of culture producers, scholars, and activists from Berlin, Zurich, Paris, Delft and Casa
Sammanfattning Inom konkurrensrätten är kartellbildning väldigt allvarligt och det finns därför ett förbud mot detta vilket är konkurrenslagstiftningens allra viktigaste bestämmelse. Stadgandet finns dels inom EU-rätten, dels i svensk rätt och de ser i stora drag likadana ut. I takt med att EU utvecklat sitt program för att bekämpa kartellbildning har Sverige påverkats att ha ett mer EU-harmonisAbstract Within competition law, cartels are defined as a very serious and infringement and are prohibited. This ban exists both within EU law and in Swedish law and looks largely the same. As the EU has developed their program to combat cartels, Sweden has been affected to have a more harmonized EU system when it comes to combating these types of anti-competitive collaborations.

Desiccation of the Sahara since the middle Holocene has eradicated all but a few natural archives recording its transition from a "green Sahara" to the present hyperarid desert. Our continuous 6000- year paleoenvironmental reconstruction from northern Chad shows progressive drying of the regional terrestrial ecosystem in response to weakening insolation forcing of the African monsoon and abrupt hy
Idag gäller allmän åtalsrätt som huvudregel. Målsägandens åtalsrätt aktualiseras först då åklagaren beslutar att inte åtala. Den åklagarförda processen tillerkänner dock målsäganden möjlighet att biträda åtalet och vidta processhandlingar som kan påverka ansvarsfrågan. Rätten att biträda åtalet härstammar från 1948 och motiverades aldrig i förarbetena. Uppsatsen undersöker hur målsägandens straffpThe responsibility for the criminal procedure lies mainly on the state prosecutor. The plaintiff’s right of prosecution is depending on the prosecutor’s decision to waive indictment. However, the plaintiff may participate in a way that might affect the liability issue by assisting the prosecution. The right to assist the prosecution, originating from 1948, was never justified in its legislative hi
