Allteftersom stora framsteg görs i datorernas värld och inom artificiell intelligens ser samhället en allt större implementering av artificiell intelligence-teknologi i människors vardag. En sådan implementering är autonoma, självkörande, fordon. Detta är en teknologi som lovar stora framsteg inom fordonssäkerhet, lägre utsläpp till följd av mindre köbildning och en rad andra samhällsvinster. Det As progress is rapidly made in the spheres of computation and artificial intelligence the implementation of new artificial intelligence technologies becomes a more and more significant part of our everyday lives. One application that garners a lot of attention, making promises in the forms of lessened congestion, increased safety and a line of other benefits to society is the autonomous car. While

Sommaren 2018 var ett rekordvarmt år, och en markant ökning på solkurvor konstaterades av Trafikverket. Det finns flera orsaker till varför en solkurva uppstår, förutom den ökade temperaturen. När en solkurva bildas dras slutsatsen i många fall att anledningen endast är hög temperatur och vidare undersökningar utesluts direkt. Detta examensarbete består till stor del av en litteraturstudie som bThe summer of 2018 was a hot year, a significant increase of sun curves was observed by Trafikverket. There are several reasons why a sun curve occurs, in addition to the high temperature. When a sun curve is formed, the conclusion is drawn in many cases that the reason was heat and no further investigations are made. The project consists a literature study that explains the physical theory, fac

Denna uppsats har till syfte att undersöka ifall inskränkningar i upphovsrätt för parodier är i svensk rätt i linje med unionsrättsliga förpliktelser eller ifall svensk rätt måste anpassas. Parodi är ett humoruttryck som grundar sig på användande av annans verk och används ofta för att kritisera eller förlöjliga en särskild konstform, verk eller konstutövare. Parodier har en nära relation till ytThis essay aims at examining whether the exception for parodies in copyright law in Sweden is in line with obligations in the EU or if the Swedish law needs to be adjusted. Parody is a form of humorous expression that rely on the use of another’s work and is often used to criticise or mock a particular art form, work or artist. Parodies have a close relation to freedom of expression which may hav

Kommunernas uppdrag är omfattande, samtidigt som många kommuner har det tufft ekonomiskt. Skolor ska drivas, vård och omsorg skötas, avfall hämtas och gator asfalteras, och mycket mer därtill. Att klimatfrågan kan hamna längre ner på dagordningen är därför föga förvånande. Samtidigt kan, och behöver, en del av växthusgasutsläppen hanteras på just lokal nivå. En strategi för att öka klimatfrågans gA growing research field shows that climate mitigation measures can entail numerous co-benefits for other policy areas, including improved air quality, enhanced energy security and reduced maintenance costs. One possible strategy for enhancing climate action can be to emphasize these co-benefits. However, research has shown that co-benefits are seldom included when climate mitigation measures are

Recent public opinion research and elite deliberation has established a particular interest in galvanizing an EU army to better enforce a sense of integration, stability and strengthin the Union. This article proposes an alternative mechanism, privileging Richard Rosecrance’s concept of the ‘virtual state’ as anequally important and worthyfactor contributing to all those aspects. The fourdefining

This study analyses the constitutive power of narratives in relation to a retroliberal paradigm shift in EU development policy by focusing on blended finance targeting sub-Saharan Africa. This study builds on the claims of Mawdsley (2015) that a reconfiguration of global development policy has challenged the North ontologically, which have been accompanied with the emergence of retroliberalism. Th

Principen om avtalsfrihet, principen om avtalsbundenhet och skyddsprincipen är tre principer som särskilt brukar framhållas inom det avtalsrättsliga området. Principen om avtalsfrihet innebär en frihet att själv avgöra om ett avtal ska ingås, vem avtalet ska ingås med och vad avtalsinnehållet ska vara. Principen om avtalsbundenhet innebär att avtal ska hållas, detta är viktigt ur ett förutsebarhetThe freedom of contract, the sanctity of contract and the principle of protection are three basic principles within the field of contract law. The freedom of contract includes the freedom to choose whether to contract or not, with whom to contract and on which terms to contract. The sanctity of contract means that once a contract has been agreed upon, the parties must honour their obligations unde

Denna uppsats behandlar ungdomsrabatten i 29 kap. 7 § brottsbalken (1962:700). Ungdomsrabatten är en reduktion som särbehandlar unga lagöverträdare i åldrarna 15–20 år vid straffmätningen. Den unge lagöverträdaren får ett avdrag på straffet baserat på dennes ålder vid gärningstillfället. Ungdomsrabatten är sedan länge en rättstradition i Sverige, men den har under lång tid kritiserats. På senare åThis thesis addresses the reduced sentence for juveniles in Chapter 29 Section 7 of the Swedish Penal Code (1962:700). The reduced sentence for juveniles is a reduction which targets young offenders aged 15–20 years when meting out of punishment. The young offender receives a reduction of the punishment based on the age of the criminal offender at the time of the crime. The reduced sentence for ju

Varje år ökar världens energiförbrukning på grund av befolkningstillväxt och ökande levnadsstandard. Vi står inför många stora problem, till exempel klimatförändringar, uttömning av fossila energikällor (t. ex. petroleum, kol och naturgas) och miljöföroreningar. Därför är det brådskande att söka efter förnyelsebar energi och hur människor kan använda energi så effektivt och ändamålsenligt som möjlThe demand and consumption of energy is increasing dramatically all around the world. Broad adoption of fossil fuels has triggered an enormous threat to the environment. To ensure sustainability of our species and habitat, new solutions to fulfill the energy demand have to be found. Innovative materials offer the possibility to generate scalable renewable energy, which is efficient and environment

The current use of a 30 million year dateline for accepting genera in the Parmeliaceae is evaluated. Its value is doubtful since evolution obviously went quicker in some lichen groups compared with others. Parallel evolution is also very common among lichens. Polyphyletic genera should always be split, while sister groups may remain split or be combined after considering non-molecular characters.

The topic of social equity in transport planning has been dealt with in particular by authors such as Martens (2012) and Martens and Golob (2012) using a social justice based approach. However, such an approach, whilst valuable and analytically rigorous (based as it is on accessibility modelling), does not consider a wide range of possible other social impacts of transport, as set out in a framewoThe topic of social equity in transport planning has been dealt with in particular by authors such as Martens (2012) and Martens and Golob (2012) using a social justice based approach.

Delegating tasks from a human to a robot needs an efficient and easy-to-use communication pipeline between them - especially when inexperienced users are involved. This work presents a robotic system that is able to bridge this communication gap by exploiting 3D sensing for gesture recognition and real-time object segmentation. We visually extract an unknown object indicated by a human through a p
