Wearable eye trackers and other glasses move on the wearer’s face. Such slippage can cause large offsets in the reported gaze position, and significant data loss. How much slippage may be expected during natural behavior? Here we report on the movement of two eye trackers and two smart glasses on the wearer’s head, recorded using a motion capture setup while thirty-five participants performed ten
Companies and special interest organizations pays multiple millions each year in order to reach out with messages about that their products are biggest, best and most beautiful. The publicity happens among thing like TV, in brochures, on the Internet and in newspapers etc. places. This means that consumer permanently becomes affected of publicity, and is thereby in an exposed situation. Around the
Age is one of two new discriminatory grounds in Swedish law. EU took official position against age discrimination by means of Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation. From January the 1st 2009 it is, by Diskrimineringslag (2008:567), illegal in Sweden to discriminate anyone based on age. The law covers all a
In the literature on coastal land reclamation and ecological restoration policies, the role of policy translation has received limited attention vis-à-vis domestic political factors. This paper addresses this knowledge gap by clarifying the role of Dutch actors in developing South Korea's coastal management policies. To do so, we first develop an analytical framework that operationalizes the ‘poli
The advent of foundation models signals a new era in artificial intelligence. The Segment Anything Model (SAM) is the first foundation model for image segmentation. In this study, we evaluate SAM's ability to segment features from eye images recorded in virtual reality setups. The increasing requirement for annotated eye-image datasets presents a significant opportunity for SAM to redefine the lan
With cyber-physical systems opening to the outside world, security can no longer be considered a secondary issue. One of the key aspects in security of cyber-phyiscal systems is to deal with intrusions. In this paper, we highlight the several unique properties of control applications in cyber-physical systems. Using these unique properties, we propose a systematic intrusion-damage assessment and m
This report describes how the work has been conducted in the project “A National Strategy for Standardisation of Digital Information Management within the BuiltEnvironment” (further on denoted NSS). This report describes the project background, aim, objective, methodology, schedule, organisation, and identified areas and processes that have been the basis for the development of the initial three-y
In this contribution, a recently conducted measurement campaign in underground subway environments is introduced. The downlink signals in an in-service UMTS network are collected in the subway carriage by using an Universal Software-defined Radio Peripheral (USRP) equipment and used to extract the channel impulse responses (CIRs) between a user equipment and UMTS stations. A high-resolution parame
In this contribution, we report about tomographic nanoscale imaging using a laser-produced plasma-based laboratory transmission X-ray microscope (LTXM) in the water window. The soft X-ray radiation of the LTXM is provided by a high average power laser-produced (1.3 kHz repetition rate, 0.5 ns pulse duration, 140 W average power) plasma source, a multilayer condenser mirror, an objective zone plate
This chapter expresses that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous disorder where several neural networks are involved in producing the behavioral symptoms. Comorbidity in other neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders is a hallmark of ASD. The chapter presents an overview of the clinical and neurobiological characteristics of ASD as well as the literature on the association between
A Circular Economy (CE) calls for the value of materials and products to be maintained and recovered through narrowing, closing, and slowing loops. However, there remain challenges in moving up the waste hierarchy and not only recycling materials from products, but also capturing value through reuse of components in refurbished and repaired products. In this paper, we examine the practice of “harv
Desalination is an important method and cost effective for producing potable water and is a rapidly growing technology worldwide. According to the International Desalination Association, IDA data base the amount of desalinated water soon will reach the 100 MCM per day, which means double of this amount (200 MCM/day) is called brine discharge or rejected amount. In this study, we planned to follow
This paper describes the assessment of the cost efficiency of risk mitigation measures for terrorist attacks with Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) for an iconic bridge structure. The assessment is performed with a decision theoretical framework building upon very recent advances in the framework of the COST Action TU1402 on Quantifying the Value of Structural Heath Monitoring. The decision scen
Som följd av klimatförändringar kommer klimatanpassningsåtgärder att bli nödvändiga för att skydda mot effekterna av det förändrade klimatet. Det förändrade klimatet kommer innebära att risken för översvämningar och erosion ökar längs med Sveriges kuster, sjöar och vattendrag. Vem det är som bär ansvaret för att se till att dessa klimatanpassningsåtgärder kommer till stånd råder det en osäkerhet kAs a result of climate change, our society will need to start to adapt to the changing conditions. With these changes the risk of floods, races, spills and erosion along the coasts, lakes and streams of Sweden will increase. The need to take action to counteract these impending risks is strong but how is going to take responsibility for these actions? The purpose of the report is to investigate th
I denna uppsats beskrivs och analyseras bestämmelsen om panoramafrihet. Först och främst behandlas svensk rätt men utblickar görs även till övriga nordiska länder. En utblick görs även till EU:s arbete avseende upphovsrättsliga bestämmelser om panoramafrihet och dess effekt på den digitala marknaden. En viktig inskränkning i upphovsrätten är rätten att fritt avbilda byggnader och konstverk som är This essay describes and analyses the ”freedom of panorama” exception. First of all the essay takes it’s starting point in Swedish law but comparisons are also made with other Nordic countries implementation of the panorama exception. An outlook is also made to the work of the EU regarding the panorama exception and it’s effect on the digital market. An important limitation of the swedish copyrigh
This bachelor thesis is a study of FRANK, a less established art gallery with studios, and the activities carried out there. I have interviewed six artists connected to FRANK, about their art activities and their relations to the more established art scenes in Malmö. My experiences is that less established artists and art activities do not get equal attention as the more established. With this the
Vid revideringen av brottsbalken 1989 infördes det billighetsskäl i 29 kap. 5 § BrB som rätten utöver brottets straffvärde ska beakta vid straffmätningen. Omständigheterna som räknas upp i paragrafen är sådana som inträffat efter brottets genomförande eller som har med den tilltalades personliga omständigheter att göra. Rätten får, med stöd av billighetsskälen, döma till lindrigare straff än vad sDuring the penal code reform 1989, clemency pleas were introduced in the Swedish legal system. Chapter 29 § 5 in the penal code states that the court, except the penal value, should take into account the circumstances after the crime has been committed as well as the defendant’s personal conditions when evaluating possible punishments. The court must take these clemency pleas into account in order
