Deep Learning Solves the Schrödinger Equation, a Fundamental Problem in Quantum Mechanics. The Schrödinger equation (SE) is a keystone of quantum physics, and it governs all phenomena of the microscopic world. Solving this equation helps predict the behavior of quantum systems such as molecules which means that the chemical and physical properties can be obtained with plausible accuracy. This has

Bakgrund: World Health Organization (WHO) (2020) har beräknat att ca 50 miljoner människor i världen har demenssjukdom och det är fler som insjuknar i demens sjukdom varje år. Det är betydelsefullt att den omvårdnad som sjuksköterskorna ger till äldre personer med demens är personcentrerad för att öka äldre personers livskvalitet. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva sjuksköterskans erfarenh

In this work, a new method for spectral analysis of irregularly sampled data from paleoclimatology is proposed. The spectral estimate is formulated as an inverse problem and extracts information from multiple cores sampled at different times with different phases, while being robust to errors in the assumed sampling times. The proposed method is also shown to attain the misspecified Cramér-Rao low

The Swedish government submitted proposal 2007/08: 95 to the Parliament (Riksdagen) in 2007. The proposal contains the main ideas and pricipals of Sweden's first cohesive discrimination law. The proposal aims to describe how the legislation should act more efficiently and comprehensively, something the older laws could not manage. The aim of this thesis has been to explain the problems associa

Att använda maskininlärning på en mikrokontroll för att styra handproteser Det har länge experimenterats med elektriskt drivna handproteser för att återfå funktionalitet hos patienter som undergått en amputation. Vid muskelkontraktioner, i exempelvis underarmen, genereras elektriska signaler som kan fångas upp och användas till att styra en handprotes. Här behöver vi alltså fatta ett beslut om vThis master's thesis investigates in what capacity a typical hand-prosthesis classification ANN (Artificial Neural Network) can be deployed on a microcontroller unit. A working, implemented interface is presented along with extra scripts, applications and functions for easy training and testing. Performance of different architectures as well as model-conversion tools are evaluated and compared

The unsustainable use of wild meat undermines efforts of many cornerstones of global sustainable development, from climate change mitigation to poverty and hunger reduction. We investigate how the indigenous communities of La Pedrera, in the Amazonian region of Colombia, utilise their local ecosystem for the harvesting of wild meat. We find that it likely acts as safety net and a safeguard against

Forests’ high importance due to the ecosystem services they supply is undisputed. The mitigation of climate change through net uptake of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere (carbon sinks) is one of them and the biodiversity hosted by a forest is an important underpinning of its functioning and may help promote the resilience of forest ecosystem services to future change. Uneven-aged forests general

Migrationspolitik berör territoriella gränsdragningar mellan medborgare och icke-medborgare, men även politiska gränsdragningar inom nationen. Det ställer frågan om vem som tillåts att fullt ut tillhöra det svenska samhället. Med ett fokus på inkludering och exkludering ur en svensk samhällsgemenskap visar studien hur skapandet av den ideala migranten kan synliggöra hur ideala medborgare konstruerMigration policy concerns territorial demarcations between citizens and non-citizens, but also political borders within the nation. This asks the question of who is fully allowed to belong to Swedish society. With a focus on inclusion and exclusion from a Swedish societal community, the study shows how the creation of the ideal migrant can reveal how ideal citizens are constructed. The aim of th

Early childhood education (ECE) builds the base for a child’s learning and socialization. Studies prove that racism and unequal treatment are present already in early childhood education, affecting negatively on an individual’s wellbeing. Antiracism is seen as a way to act against racism and lessen inequality. Via interviews of six ECE teachers working in Finland, this study analyzes if they recog

Risk-taking behaviours are essential for animals’ survival and are often referred to as variation along the bold-shy continuum in animal personality research. Predation risk is a fundamental driver shaping individuals’ behaviours, and sex often plays an underlaying role in behavioural variation between individuals as well.

Ny metod för att bedöma blodstamcellers delningsmönster i möss Blodstamceller har förmågan att differentiera till alla typer av blodceller i hela kroppen. De kan skapa röda blodkroppar, blodplättar och alla typer av immunceller som vi behöver för att bekämpa infektioner. I normala fall är blodstamcellerna vilande och delar sig inte särskilt ofta. Om kroppen blir skadad och förlorar mycket blodcelHematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are recognized for their ability to self-renew and create more stem cells while also being able to differentiate into all different types of blood cells. Stem cells can do symmetric or asymmetric divisions but the biological relevance of different types of divisions is still unclear. Steady state HSCs have been found to perform both symmetric and asymmetric division

Corporate social responsibility, also known as CSR, is the responsibility companies have regarding its societal impact within the area in which they operate. Companies often choose to market their social responsibility which results in increased consumer loyalty and thus an increased competitive advantage. To communicate their CSR initiatives, companies may use various certifications such as MSC a

It is obviously expected that sustainable development is the primary target to raise prosperity and life standards of nations. It is necessary to ensure social, political, and economic stability. But what about the stimulus factors that motivate sustainable development? Can income inequality be one of them? Some literature has examined the role of income distribution on economic growth, but to te

Förändringar i hjärnan vid avsaknad av CYP27A1 CYP27A1 är en gen vars färdiga protein är involverat i nedbrytning av kolesterol och gallsyrasyntes. Avsaknad av CYP27A1 eller produktion av en dysfunktionell variant av proteinet i människor resulterar i sjukdomen Cerebrotendinös xantomatos (CTX). CTX är en sjukdom som karaktäriseras av grumling av ögats lins, lipidinlagringar i form av knutor i senCYP27A1 is an important enzyme in cholesterol catabolism and bile acid biosynthesis. Deficiency of this enzyme in human leads to the disease Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX), which is a recessively inherited lipid storage disorder characterized by symptoms such as cataracts, tendon xanthomas and progressive neurological syndrome. The underlying cause for the neurological symptoms is not well u

På senare tid har det påträffats olika typer av skador på fibercementskivor monterade i fasader som har varit svåra att härleda till en specifik orsak. Den främsta skadan som uppkommit är sprickbildning men det har även påträffats andra defekter så som utbuktande skivor. Dessa skador har i flera fall härletts till handhavandefel vid montage men fukt-och temperaturbetingade rörelser tros även vara Recently, various types of damages have been found on fibre cement boards mounted in facades which have been difficult to trace to a specific cause. The main damage that has occurred is cracking but other defects have also been found, such as bulging boards. These damages have in several cases been attributed to handling errors during assembly, but moisture and temperature-related movements are al

Simulating vehicle scenarios for autonomous cars saves both time and money compared to physical testing. For this to work efficiently a sophisticated simulation software is often needed. Esmini is an open-source, lightweight vehicle simulator that can handle advanced traffic scenarios. When designing scenarios to be used for testing autonomous vehicles, it is often beneficial to set up relative ve

In surveillance contexts, radars can be used to monitor an area, detecting and tracking moving objects inside it. Monitored areas in urban environments often contain many surfaces that reflect radar waves, which can have the undesired consequence of a single object producing multiple tracks due to multipath propagation effects. This thesis considers a method of identifying if a track is produced b

The purpose of this thesis is to model and develop a control law that lets an unmanned aerial vehicle of blimp type fly autonomously in three-dimensional space. There are several uses of the blimp type UAV including, but not limited to, cargo transportation and surveillance. The work done throughout the thesis includes optimization of actuator placements, modelling the blimp and simulating the pro

The most common controller in the process industry today is the PID controller due to its simple structure. A regular factory may have thousands of different PID controllers in use where each of them has to be tuned to work satisfactory. Doing this manually can become both a difficult and time consuming task where some knowledge for each process is required. Therefore, it is highly beneficial to h
