Macroalgae cultivation shows potential for the application as emerging feedstock for microbial fermentation to produce biochemicals. However, metal residues in macroalgae might affect the fermentation capacity of relevant microorganisms. This aspect is currently not considered when selecting macroalgae and microorganism species for microbial fermentation. To consider this aspect for selecting viab
An algorithm is said to be certifying if it outputs, together with a solution to the problem it solves, a proof that this solution is correct. We explain how state of the art maximum clique, maximum weighted clique, maximal clique enumeration and maximum common (connected) induced subgraph algorithms can be turned into certifying solvers by using pseudo-Boolean models and cutting planes proofs, an
Gas in scattering media absorption spectroscopy shortly called GASMAS, is a tunable diode laser spectroscopic technique developed for the measurement of gas present in turbid media. The technique relies on the sharp and specific absorption lines of gases which enables sensitive measurements of gas concentrations in the presence of a scattering solid medium with much broader absorption features. Th
Due to its range-dependent target response, frequency diverse array multiple-input multiple-output (FDA-MIMO) radar systems enable superior detection capabilities as compared with conventional phased-array radars. This paper proposes an incoherent detector for airborne FDA-MIMO radar to detect independent but possibly non-identically distributed fluctuating targets. For FDA-MIMO, variations in the
Traditional network architecture design of Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) is incapable of dynamically scaling resources based on the served traffic and requires manual procedures for network capacity upgrades. Today's over-provisioning approach based on proprietary hardware (HW) would not be cost and energy efficient to cope with the ever-increasing scale of Internet of Things (IoT) devices
I Arktis er en klimakjempe i ferd med å våkne sakte, men sikkert fra sin lange dvale: Permafrosten – grunn som kan ha vært frosset i tusenvis av år – begynner flere steder å tine på grunn av de sterkt økende temperaturene (Box m.fl. 2019). Dette kan gjøre klimaproblemet enda verre enn det allerede er, fordi det kan føre til store utslipp av drivhusgasser som CO2 og metan (CH4). Når det skjer, varmSammendragI Arktis er en klimakjempe i ferd med å våkne sakte, men sikkert fra sin lange dvale: Permafrosten – grunn som kan ha vært frosset i tusenvis av år – begynner flere steder å tine på grunn av de sterkt økende temperaturene (Box m.fl. 2019).

OBJECTIVES: Acute aortic dissection type A is a life-threatening condition, warranting immediate surgery. Presentation with sudden chest pain confers a risk of misdiagnosis as acute coronary syndrome resulting in subsequent potent antiplatelet treatment. We investigated the impact of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) on bleeding and mortality using the Nordic Consortium for Acute Type A Aortic Diss
In recent years, great progress has been made on the problem of 3D scene reconstruction using depth sensors. On a large scale, these reconstructions look impressive, but often many fine details are lacking due to limitations in the sensor resolution. In this paper we combine two well-known principles for recovery of 3D models, namely fusion of depth images with photometric stereo to enhance the de
Changes in evolving software systems are often managed using an issue repository. This repository may contribute to information overload in an organization, but it may also help navigating the software system. Software developers spend much effort on issue triage, a task in which the mere number of issue reports becomes a significant challenge. One specific difficulty is to determine whether a new
This paper presents an exploration framework which performs data assignment and access scheduling exploration for applications given a multilayer memory architecture. Our framework uses multiobjective criteria during exploration, such as application execution time, energy, bandwidth, and data size. In order to tackle the complexity of the exploration, it is divided into three phases; Pareto diagra
Despite emergency and essential surgery and anaesthesia care being recognised as a part of Universal Health Coverage, 5 billion people worldwide lack access to safe, timely and affordable surgery and anaesthesia care. In Tanzania, 19% of all deaths and 17 % of disability-adjusted life years are attributable to conditions amenable to surgery. It is recommended that countries develop and implement N
We see a potential for ESS to benefit from sharing alarm data for machine learning applications, by establishing data ecosystem. To achieve these goal, ESS must make a strategic decision to pursue data sharing, establish a technical platform to share a digital twin, continue advancing the data ecosystem, and work towards a standardized reference model.
In this paper we propose a design methodology to partition dataflow applications on a multi clock domain architecture. This work shows how starting from a high level dataflow representation of a dynamic program it is possible to reduce the overall power consumption without impacting the performances. Two different approaches are illustrated, both based on the post-processing and analysis of the ca
Electromagnetic fields exist all around us. Through evolution, nature has developed tools to interact and use these fields, where our eyes are a spectacular example. Humans have a long history of developing structures and objects of their own to alter and interact with these fields. Today they are important cornerstones in society, with radiating devices such as cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, or car
A non-adaptive quantitative group testing (GT) scheme based on sparse codes-on-graphs in combination with low-complexity peeling decoding was introduced and analyzed by Karimi et al.. In this work, we propose a variant of this scheme based on low-density parity-check codes where the BCH codes at the constraint nodes are replaced by simple single parity-check codes. Furthermore, we apply spatial co
Human appreciation of nature and natural elements is ubiquitous. The role of emotions in human relationships with nature has received increasing attention within environmental psychology, for example by employing constructs such as affinity with nature. Also, researchers are recognizing the importance of studying emotions for understanding human-wildlife interactions (Jacobs, 2009; Johansson &
The COVID-19 pandemic illustrated many of the challenges with using science to guide planning and policymaking. One such challenge has to do with how to manage, represent and communicate uncertainties in epidemiological models. This is considerably complicated, we argue, by the fact that the models themselves are often instrumental in structuring the involved uncertainties. In this paper we explor
