Ensembles of independently trained deep neural networks yield uncertainty estimates that rival Bayesian networks in performance. They also offer sizable improvements in terms of predictive performance over single models. However, deep ensembles are not commonly used in environments with limited computational budget - such as autonomous driving - since the complexity grows linearly with the number

Visual discourses on ‘African women’ in the fundraising campaigns of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) hold the potential for stereotype creation. Previous research has shown that Africans are often portrayed with deficiencies (e.g. lack of water, education and productivity). By using Stuarts Hall´s theory of encoding and decoding, which highlights the active role of the audience in interpreti

Mänskliga kvarlevor förstås inte längre bara som föremål utan också som avlidna individer. Utställda mänskliga kvarlevor kan ha en suggestiv kraft som ger dem liv genom mötet med besökare, tillspetsat skulle man kunna säga att de befinner sig i ett slags limbo mellan liv och död. Denna studie jämför museiutställningar som innehåller mänskliga kvarlevor mellan tre europeiska länder. Syftet med uppHuman remains are nowadays understood not solely as objects but also as deceased individuals. Exhibited human remains may possess a suggestive power that gives them life through the encounter with visitors, to the point that one could say that they are in a kind of limbo between life and death. This study seeks to compare the museal exhibitions containing human remains in three countries within Eu

Maternally inherited parasites are known to impose a wide variety of reproductive manipulations upon their host. These often produce strong selection on the host to suppress the parasite, resulting in a reduction in the frequency of the parasite. However, in the butterfly Hypolimnas bolina, infected with a Wolbachia bacterium, field data demonstrate that suppression of the male-killing phenotype d

We need more openness about age-related infertility as it is a particular risk for many female scientists in academia who feel that they have to delay having children.

This interpretive study, taking place in the context of the IT-company Ericsson, aims at exploring the engineers’ understanding and experience of organizational control. The study builds on data gathered through semi-structured interviews, which are analyzed by taking the lenses of discourse theory. The study firstly shows the engineers’ understanding of control as something ‘bad’ whilst contrasti

The human host has evolved elaborate protection mechanisms to prevent infection from the billions of microorganisms to which it host is exposed and is home. One of these systems, complement, is an evolutionary ancient arm of innate immunity essential for combatting bacterial infection. Complement permits the efficient labelling of bacteria with opsonins, supports phagocytosis, and facilitates phag

In the census of 2011 in India, more than 2500 new settlements have been classified as urban. Placed under the category of ‘census towns’, not much is known about the urbanization processes unfolding at these sites. This article presents learnings from a qualitative case study of a town in West Bengal, to argue that not only do census towns represent a subaltern urbanization but also that they are
