Global climate models (GCMs) are challenged by difficulties in simulating cloud phase and cloud radiative effect over the Southern Ocean (SO). Some of the new-generation GCMs predict too much liquid and too little ice in mixed-phase clouds. This misrepresentation of cloud phase in GCMs results in weaker negative cloud feedback over the SO and a higher climate sensitivity. Based on a model comparis

Despite of having no explicit shape model, multi-atlas approaches to image segmentation have proved to be a top-performer for several diverse datasets and imaging modalities. In this paper, we show how one can directly incorporate shape regularization into the multi-atlas framework. Unlike traditional multi-atlas methods, our proposed approach does not rely on label fusion on the voxel level. Inst

In this paper we study the problem of estimating receiver and sender positions using time-difference-of-arrival measurements. For this, we use a stratified, two-tiered approach. In the first step the problem is converted to a low-rank matrix estimation problem. We present new, efficient solvers for the minimal problems of this low-rank problem. These solvers are used in a hypothesis and test manne

Digital twins are taking a central role in the industry 4.0 narrative. However, they are still illusive. Many aspects of the digital-twins have yet to materialize. For example, to what degree will they be integrated into cloud and industry 4.0 systems as well as how and if they should augment their physical counterpart. Those choices are accompanied by challenging security aspects, many of which h

In this paper, we investigate the security of SNOW-V, demonstrating two guess-and-determine (GnD) attacks against the full version with complexities 2384 and 2378, respectively, and one distinguishing attack against a reduced variant with complexity 2303 . Our GnD attacks use enumeration with recursion to explore valid guessing paths, and try to truncate as many invalid guessing paths as possible

The decomposition of nonlinear chirp modes is a challenging task, typically requiring prior knowledge of the number of modes a signal contains. In this work, we present a greedy nonlinear chirp mode estimation (NCME) technique that forms the used decomposition basis from the signal itself, using an arctangent demodulation technique. The resulting decomposition is formed by considering the residual

pTropospheric ozone concentrations are sensitive to natural emissions of precursor compounds. In contrast to existing assumptions, recent evidence indicates that terrestrial vegetation emissions in the pre-industrial era were larger than in the present day. We use a chemical transport model and a radiative transfer model to show that revised inventories of pre-industrial fire and biogenic emission

Combining forecasts from multiple temporal aggregation levels exploits information differences and mitigates model uncertainty, while reconciliation ensures a unified prediction that supports aligned decisions at different horizons. It can be challenging to estimate the full cross-covariance matrix for a temporal hierarchy, which can easily be of very large dimension, yet it is difficult to know a

Den 30 oktober 2014 erkände Sverige Staten Palestina. Syftet med denna uppsats är att utifrån en folkrättslig metod undersöka de migrationsrättsliga konsekvenserna av detta. De frågor som aktualiseras i detta sammanhang är vilka som nu kan bedömas vara palestinska medborgare samt hur artikel 1 D och 1 C i flyktingkonventionen ska tillämpas till följd av erkännandet. Medborgarskapet får betydelse On October 30, 2014 Sweden recognized the State of Palestine. The purpose of this essay is to examine the legal consequences of this in the field of migration law by applying an international legal method. The questions arising in this context are which individuals that can be considered to be Palestinian citizens and how Article 1 D and 1 C in the Refugee Convention should be applied as a result

Genom en kvalitativ textanalys av tv-serien Lyckliga gatan undersöker denna uppsats hur hiphopgenren, likt andra musikgenrer före den, gått från att vara en subkultur till att bli en etablerad genre på det musikaliska fältet och sträckt sig från förorten till finkulturens scener. I serien Lyckliga gatan som hade premiär 2015, har beskrivits som hiphopens svar på Så mycket bättre, möter unga hiph

This work evaluates the personal safety in case of a fire in Halmstad Arena hall D, an ice rink which is also used for exhibitions during the summer. Simulations and calculations were performed on possible design fires based on information given by an on-site visit and given design drawings. Solutions were discussed and conclusions drawn to increase the maximum number of people allowed in the buil

This thesis explores the application of European Union competition law — specifically Article 102 TFEU — to the regulatory conduct of dominant sports governing bodies such as UEFA, FIFA, and ISU. As sport has evolved into a major economic sector, the dual role of these organizations as both regulators and commercial actors has raised significant legal questions concerning abuse of dominance and ma

Patients and families facing the end of life deal with constant health changes, making their ongoing involvement in care decisions vital yet often overlooked. The iLIVE project conducted a qualitative study across 10 countries, exploring the experiences of patients, family members, and healthcare professionals, enabling a comprehensive exploration of the experiences of end-of-life decision-making.

This article explores various attempts to critique the law with reference to an authority or idea that is seen as transcending law in its existing forms. As heuristic tools, I use a distinction be-tween prophetic and apocalyptic discourses, the former referring to discourses that remain scep-tical to the possibility of suspending law in any absolute sense; the latter describing discourses that art

This article probes the writings of the Jewish Trotskyist thinker Daniel Bensaïd (1946–2010) in light of recent debates on political theology. In contrast to what is sometimes explicitly referred to as ‘apocalyptic political theology’, it makes a case for what may be described as a ‘prophetic political theology’. Yet it is not obvious to claim Bensaïd as a proponent for such a project, since he ex
