Climate change, deforestation and poverty are big threats for today’s society. One way the United Nations has chosen to combat this is through a project named REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation). In short, REDD+ allows countries to be compensated if they change their way of using the forest into methods more likely to conserve the ecosystem and eliminate or minimiz
This thesis presents and evaluates different models aimed at tracking the play in handball matches. The tracking is designed to be used with automatic broadcasting of handball matches without any camera operator present. To solve this problem the Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi tracker is used to generate data of player movements on the handball court. From the tracker data, features are extracted and used as

Dry Etching is widely used in nanoprocessing as a method of pattern transfer onto a hard substrate, like silicon. Improving the resolution of this etch process is an important step in reducing the feature size in, for instance, computer microchips, or Nanoimprint Lithography stamps.

Electric buses are increasingly popular in public transport systems globally, and in many European contexts, this transition takes place through public procurement. While previous research argues that electrification challenges existing procurement practices and strategies, the aim of the paper is to contribute new knowledge on the role of public procurement in the transition to electric buses and
Människor som lever på flykt i sitt eget land är bland de mest utsatta och sårbara i världen, trots detta finns idag inget internationellt skydd för internflyktingar. I Nigeria har terroristorganisationen Boko Harams utbredning, samt de allt svårare klimatförhållanden som råder, lett till att situationen är akut. Över två miljoner människor lever idag på flykt inom landets gränser, och av dessa nå
Landstingen är ansvariga för stora delar av den svenska hälso- och sjukvården i Sverige. De senaste åren har landstingen varit drabbade av en ytterst ansträngd ekonomi och endast fem av 20 landsting kunde under 2002 redovisa ett överskott. Den försämrade ekonomin kan till viss del förklaras av en hög arbetslöshet vilket innebär minskade skatteintäkter. Eftersom den offentliga sektorn, och däriblan

The Ruhr Area is the most densely populated region in Europe and is founded on the mining of coal and production of steel. However, throughout the last decades it has endured many hardships, as the coal industry shut down and thus leaving the region as one of the poorest in Germany, while grappling with the loss of an element that once gave the region its identity. During recent years there has be
Transdisciplinary research (TDR) seeks to involve non-academic perspectives from the start, ensuring that research draws on diverse knowledge to better address “wicked” problems. Since TDR researchers have to engage with non-academic perspectives throughout the research process, this chapter focuses on the kind of communication practices that are appropriate and effective for engaging with people
The Janzen–Connell hypothesis states that seedling survival increases with distance from the parent tree, which promotes regular spacing of species within a forest and thus biodiversity. Very few studies have tested this hypothesis in tropical Africa. This paper evaluates the occurrence of Janzen-Connell effects for seedlings and adult trees of the species Cola cordifolia in a dry tropical forest
This thesis aims to explore how a design system can serve as a resource for digital transformation within the retail industry, by drawing from the dynamic capabilities approach and the digital maturity framework by Pinto et al. (2023). Connected to this, it is looking specifically at the adoption of design systems and investigates how humans can act as enablers of digital transformation. To do so
In the wake of OpenAI's release of ChatGPT in November 2022, powered by the 175 billion parameter neural network GPT-3, the potential applications of Large Language Models (LLMs) in various sectors have become evident. One such application lies in hedge funds and trading desks where knowledge sharing is paramount. These entities often possess a wealth of firm-specific knowledge that spans diff
