In 1969, a government report concluded that there was a need for closer contact between the citizens and Swedish government agencies. Television, at this time still considered a new medium, was highlighted in the report as a valuable form of mass communication with great yet unfulfilled promise as a disseminator of government information. A heated debate about the role and function of government i

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate patient-reported outcomes as well as lower extremity and trunk muscle function in patients with long-standing hip and groin pain, in comparison with matched, healthy controls. It was hypothesized that patients with long-standing hip and groin pain would report more deficiency on the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) and have worse outcomes on perf

The aim of this double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study was to investigate possible improvement in physical performance at an ambient temperature of -15 degrees C by an inhaled dose of 50 micrograms salmeterol in 8 highly trained nonasthmatic cross-country skiers. FEV1 was measured before, during and after the treadmill exercise protocol, which consisted of a warm-up run, runs of 10 min

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is associated with mechanical instability and defective neuromuscular function, and can lead to further injury, increased joint loading and osteoarthritis. Patients with ACL injury demonstrate altered postural orientation, manifested as observable "substitution patterns" (SPs) but no one has applied a clinically useful method to systematically study postural

Objectives: Skeletal muscle performance is determined by muscle temperature. This paperpresents a review of the research literature to contribute to a better understanding of thephysiological mechanisms of muscle fatigue and performance in cold exposure and in repetitiveor sustained physical exertion in terms of isometric maximal force production,electromyographic activities, and gait ground react

Att leva i ett samhälle med rent vatten och fungerande avloppssystem är grundläggande för människans goda hälsa. I Kazakstan i Centralasien kan man inte räkna med säker vattenförsörjning och många riskerar att få allvarliga infektionssjukdomar. Men nu vill landet fokusera på att förbättra befolkningens hälsa och man vänder sig till Lunds universitet för hjälp. Ungefär 2,1 miljarder människor på jo

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. I den hittills största kliniska studien av mikrobiomets, dvs tarmflorans, utveckling hos spädbarn har forskare vid Baylor College of Medicine funnit att utvecklingen sker i olika stadier som kan associeras med förändringar i livsstilen under den första tiden i livet. Fynden baseras på prover från TEDDY-studien och p

Decision-makers and managers spend substantial amounts of funding everyday on various interventions aimed at management of the large carnivores, for example different measures to mitigate depredation on livestock, e.g., removal of carnivores and fencing of livestock (see Linnell et al. 1996 for an extensive review). Management of species that occur in low numbers is challenging as relatively small

In the present study, we apply deterministic chaos theory to investigate nonlinear dynamics in monthly precipitation at Mokpo, Korea, after wavelet decomposition. The wavelet transform is used not only for removal of noise but also for extraction of low and high frequency components in the data, representing low-dimensional dynamics. In order to determine an appropriate decomposition level for the

This paper presents ongoing research involving design and evaluation of different architectures for providing knowledge-based solutions in industrial robotized automation systems. The conclusions are that distributed, cloud-based approaches offer many possibilities, in particular for knowledge exchange and reuse, and facilitate new business models for industrial solutions. However, there are many

An increasing number of researchers record binocular eye-tracking signals from participants viewing moving stimuli, but the majority of event-detection algorithms are monocular and do not consider smooth pursuit movements. The purposes of the present study are to develop an algorithm that discriminates between fixations and smooth pursuit movements in binocular eye-tracking signals and to evaluate

Few-shot segmentation (FSS) tackles data scarcity using multiple priors, but its simplicity limits handling base and novel classes with limited data access. Generalized few-shot semantic segmentation (GFSS) enhances model performance for base classes with abundant data, while novel classes have limited data access, improving generalization with scarce data. Building on the design of query-based se

In this paper we investigate the problem of segmenting images using the information in text annotations. In contrast to the general image understanding problem, this type of annotation guided segmentation is less ill-posed in the sense that for the output there is higher consensus among human annotations. In the paper we present a system based on a combined visual and semantic pipeline. In the vis

In this article, we describe a system that classifies relations between entities extracted from an image. We started from the idea that we could utilize lexical and semantic information from text associated with the image, such as captions or surrounding text, rather than just the geometric and visual characteristics of the entities found in the image. We collected a corpus of images from Wikipedi

Traditional industrial robots have problems interacting with an uncalibrated, ill-defined environment where part geometry and position may vary. Active force control technology has therefore been suggested as a solution to add the extra sensory dimension needed to handle manufacturing tasks like assembly and deburring. The technology is proposed to give increased flexibility compared to other solu

For robots to be productive co-workers in the manufacturing industry, it is necessary that their human colleagues can interact with them and instruct them in a simple manner. The goal of our research is to lower the threshold for humans to instruct manipulation tasks, especially sensorcontrolled assembly. In our previous work we have presented tools for high-level task instruction, while in this p

In this study, the processes behind observed new particle formation (NPF) events and subsequent organic-dominated particle growth at the Pallas Atmosphere-Ecosystem Supersite in Northern Finland are explored with the one-dimensional column trajectory model ADCHEM. The modeled sub-micron particle mass is up to ∼75 % composed of SOA formed from highly oxidized multifunctional organic molecules (HOMs
