This paper proposes and investigates a Bayesian relation between optimal L2 regularization strengths and the number of training patterns and hidden nodes used for an artificial neural network. The results support the proposed dependence for number of training patterns, while the dependence on hidden architecture was less clear. Finally, applying different regularization strengths on different laye
Fitting a model to a time-dependent ensemble average is a process repeated frequently throughout biophysics. A selected ensemble-averaged observable (⟨y(t)⟩) for a given system can be predicted through the use of an estimated ensemble average, where the estimated ensemble average is created via simulated or experimental data sets. Fitting a model to this estimated ensemble average allows for estim
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s can be treated with stem-cell derived specialized neurons. In order to achieve precise directed neural differentiation in vitro we need to understand the gene regulatory mechanisms behind in vivo neural tube patterning. We implement a 3D computational model of brain patterning to simulate this process. The mathematical model is set up by unifying two e
Astrocytes are one of the most common types of cells found in the central nervous system, and they play an important supportive role for neurons and other brain cells. In order to obtain astrocytes for medical or experimental purposes, some protocols enable the production of astrocytes from stem cells, but it is of interest to be able to produce astrocytes from fibroblasts, a cell type found in th
When using antibody microarrays to diagnose diseases, the process of quality control of the microarray data is an important step. Currently, a part of this process is performed manually by visual inspection. In this master project, we aim to automate the quality control in order to make it reproducible, as well as to find out which properties of the data that have the most to do with its quality.
Background: Worldwide, insulin-dependent type 1 diabetes is one of the most frequently diagnosed long-term endocrine disorders found in children and the incidences of this diseased is still increasing. In Sweden the routines are, according to national guidelines, when the child is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, the child and its family remains at the hospital for about two weeks. There is limited

Swedish legislation does not contain an explicit regulation regarding legal guardians’ liability to pay indemnity when children cause damage. The legal guardian has a supervision duty to observe, if violating this intentionally or by either negligence or willfulness the legal guardian risks liability for damages according to public liability. In 2010, the legislature chose to clarify the responsi

27 oktober 2025 10:00 till 12:00 | Seminarium The world is crossing the 1.5°C global warming limit, perhaps exceeding 2°C soon after. What is to be done when these boundaries, set by the Paris Agreement, have been passed? In the overshoot era, schemes proliferate for muscular adaptation or for new technologies to turn the heat down at a later date by removing carbon dioxide from the air or blocki

5 februari 2026 15:15 till 17:00 | Open lecture with Associate Professor Wako Asato, Kyoto University Asian welfare regimes have historically taken the form of liberal familialist welfare regimes characterized by a heavy reliance on migrant care workers. While this arrangement is often interpreted as a mere extension of familialism, it is more accurately understood as a process through which Confu

The purpose of this report is to evaluate the safety of life during evacuation from the icebreaker Sankt Erik in Stockholm in the event of fire onboard. Sankt Erik was decommissioned in 1977 and operates since 1980 as a museum under the Swedish Maritime Museum in Stockholm, moored at Galärvarvet. Being a museum no major alterations to the structure are allowed. Furthermore, the majority of the mat

The subject of this Master degree project is skiboots. I saw a need of improvement in the skiboot industry. Skiboot technology has not progressed much the last decades while the ski culture has changed a lot. The skiboot is a challenging product to design as it is a stiff plastic shoe to wear while performing tough physical activity. I myself am a passionate skier which is part of the reason why I
This thesis examines so-called pancake sentences, an agreement anomaly found in Swedish, Danish and Norwegian. In these languages, predicative adjectives typically agree with their subjects in number and grammatical gender. However, with certain subjects the predicative takes a t-form, corresponding to singular neuter, regardless of the number and gender of the subject.
