INTRODUCTION In the last years a lot of researches about source separation have been realized, like extraction of a signal of interest (vocal recognition application), identification of which source gives which sound (motor engine applications) or noise source characterization (environmental application). Most of these techniques for sound source estimation use the signal-subspace approach, where
The thesis is an attempt to analyse the concept of limitation of liability for maritime claims with multiple legal and policy perspectives. In trying to analyse the issues related to limitation of liability, the thesis explores the historical background to the development of the concept of limitation of liability within both civil and common law. A synoptic overview on the development of intern
Objective Image Quality Assessment (IQA) is crucial for evaluating and ensuring the fidelity of images. Traditional human-based evaluations, although reliable, are impractical due to their cost and slow pace, combined with subjective inconsistencies. This thesis aims to address these issues by developing a test and quality bench for Bertin Exensor's dual-head camera, integrating both infrared
This thesis details the development, implementation, and optimization of a local microservice designed to enhance invoice processing at Hulo, a company that manages au- tomatic payment invoices. This is conducted through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques, focusing particularly on Computer Vision and Object- detection. Motivated by the need to address the inefficienc
The purpose of this study is to design and investigate a pulsating heat pipe device (PHP). A PHP is a two-phase flow heat transfer device which can handle high heat fluxes with passive internal flow. It is made of a continuous loop serpentine, partially filled with a working fluid that can cool systems, such as electronic devices. It differs from a conventional heat pipe device in design and opera
Cities face multiple social-ecological challenges, which nature-based solutions (NBS) promise to address. Strategies to mainstream NBS have only achieved partial success, hence recent studies suggest that inner dimensions - mindsets and transformative capacities - must be mainstreamed simultaneously. This study investigates municipal employees' engagement with inner dimensions, its impact on s
Som en del i utvecklingen mot grönare och miljövänligare processer, samt ett behov av ytterst specifika reaktioner, vill AAK AB utvidga sin användning av lipaser i sin produktion av strukturerade triacylglyceroler (STAGs). AAK vill bygga upp ett bibliotek av utvärderade lipaser. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att bidra till detta bibliotek genom att karakterisera en grupp kommersiellt tillgänglAs part of a switch towards more green and environmentally friendly processes, together with a need for highly specific reactions, AAK AB wants to broaden their use of lipases in the production of structured triacylglycerols (STAGs). AAK are working on creating a lipase library where several lipases are evaluated, this master thesis aims to contribute to this lipase library by characterizing a sel
In Sweden, the municipalities play a key role in climate change adaptation since they have the main responsibility for the physical planning. One way for the municipalities to adapt the society to a changing climate is to use so-called blue-green solutions in the physical planning. Blue-green solutions, such as ponds, swales and trees, use underlying ecosystem services to deliver a range of benefi
Entreprenörskap karaktäriseras av en snabbföränderlig och osäker miljö. I tillägg har intressenter i området olika perspektiv och bekymmer samt är beroende av varandra. För att en ny affärsverksamhet ska lyckas är finansiering och humant kapital ofta viktiga faktorer, särskilt inom tech, och i dagsläget är det svårt att skapa/uppnå ”rätt” koppling i samspelet mellan unga företag (ideators), investThe field of entrepreneurship is characterized by a fast-changing and uncertain environment. In addition, stakeholders within the field all come with different perspectives and concerns and are dependent upon each other. For a new business to be successful, financing and human capital are often determinants, especially within tech, and it is difficult to attain the “right” connections between youn
Femtosecond pulse shaping is a versatile tool that enables the generation of ultrashort laser pulses with nearly arbitrary temporal shapes. Among others, the technique is of use in ultrafast spectroscopy experiments where it can be employed for dispersion control and the generation of well-defined laser pulse sequences. In this work, a Fourier-transform pulse shaper based on a pixelated liquid crys
In this thesis work, a highly linear passive attenuator and mixer were designed to be used in a wide-band Transmission Observation Receiver (TOR). The TOR is a low IF receiver that accepts RF frequencies from 2GHz to 7GHz, and produces corresponding IF bandwidths of 280MHz to 990MHz respectively, using low side LO injection. The dynamic range is maximized by using passive topologies for both the a
Biomass is often viewed as a primitive source of energy that needs to be modernized. However, itis unlikely that preferred modern energy sources will displace traditional biomass-based energyin the near term, especially in rural Africa and southeast Asia (FAO 2017). Demand for sustainablysourced biomass is likely to increase as the world moves away from fossil fuel dependence andtransitions to sus
This chapter seeks to explore the intersections between occupational cultures, bystanders, and social justice and inclusion based on the empirical example of policing. Specifically, we pursue the question: what is the role of police officers as bystanders to occupational police culture and how does that influence inclusion? Against the backdrop of occupational culture, we put forth four key aspect
In this paper, we recall Lepowsky's and Wakimoto's product character formulas formulated in a new way by using arrays of specialized weighted crystals of negative roots for affine Lie algebras of type Cl(1), Dl+1(2) and A2l(2). Lepowsky–Wakimoto's infinite periodic products appear as one side of (conjectured) Rogers–Ramanujan-type combinatorial identities for affine Lie algebras of type Cl(1).
Background: Biologic effectiveness is often assessed as response, a term that eludes consistent definition. Identifying those most likely to respond in real-life has proven challenging. Objective: To explore definitions of biologic responders in adults with severe asthma and investigate patient characteristics associated with biologic response. Methods: This was a longitudinal cohort study using d
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of multisensory stimulation compared to any single sensory intervention or standard care for physical and neurological development in preterm infants.
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To evaluate the benefits and harms of olfactory stimulation with different odorants in the NICU for promoting development and preventing morbidity in preterm infants.
