Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) offer a promising alternative by enabling code generation from natural language. However, despite progress, LLMs still struggle with spatial reasoning, structural fidelity, and robustness across diverse GIS datasets. This thesis systematically compares three LLM adaptation strategies, i.e., prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), an

Although conflict, climate change and natural hazards frequently coincide, consequently affecting human security, disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation as well as security risk mitigation are often treated separately in programme implementation. This, however, increases the risk in overlooking the opportunity to address root causes caused and exacerbated by climate change, natural
CO2 is the most important greenhouse gas in terms of radiative forcing, and it is therefore highly important that we can track our emissions and the effectiveness of carbon sequestration measures. While the national carbon inventories can be highly accurate, there is general conflict of interest, as national carbon inventories are bottom up estimates in part based on self-reportings from private a
This essay examines the role of class in Sally Rooney’s novels Normal People (2018) and Beautiful World, Where Are You (2021). The critical response to Sally Rooney’s novel Normal People has focused on several aspects of the novel, such as how class and gender are portrayed and identity formation in recessionary Ireland, whereas literary criticism on Beautiful World, Where Are You has focused on o
This project introduces the development of a digital educational platform designed to strengthen knowledge and awareness of Parkinson’s disease among healthcare personnel, particularly within home care and nursing services. The initiative stems from a recognized need for accessible and disease-specific information, as new employees often do not receive the training and knowledge needed to provide
Early and accurate classification of skin diseases plays a crucial role in improving diagnostic efficiency and patient outcomes. This thesis introduces HybridCNNViT, a deep learning algorithm that combines a setup of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Vision Transformers (ViTs) to capture both local texture and global structure from skin lesion images. To address the common issue of class im
Slutsats: Studien visar att unga vuxnas konsumtion av lyxvarumärken i hög grad drivs av emotionella och symboliska motiv. Lyxkonsumtion fungerar inte bara som ett sätt att signalera status, utan också som ett verktyg för självförverkligande och identitetsskapande. Genom att använda lyxprodukter uttrycker individer sin personlighet, stärker sin självkänsla och skapar en känsla av tillhörighet.
Resultaten visar att beslutet att initiera utdelning bland svenska börsbolag inte kan förklaras enbart av traditionella finansiella nyckeltal som likviditet, lönsamhet och kassaflöde. Istället formas utdelningsbeslutet av en komplex samverkan mellan bolagets strategi, utvecklingsfas, ägarstruktur och ledningens framtidsbedömningar. Särskilt betydelsefullt är inslaget av koncentrerat insiderägande,The results indicate that the decision to initiate dividend payments among Swedish listed companies cannot be explained solely by traditional financial key ratios such as liquidity, profitability, and cash flow. Instead, dividend decisions are shaped by a complex interaction between the company’s strategy, stage of development, ownership structure, and management’s expectations for the future. Par
Unga i riskzon med ofullständig utbildning löper en större risk att hamna i socialt utanförskap och kriminalitet än unga med en fullgjord grundskoleutbildning. Skolan är en förebyggande aktör gällande denna problematik med förutsättningen att det sker i samverkan med relevanta aktörer som socialtjänst. För att upprätta och etablera samverkan mellan skola och socialtjänst har Malmö stad utvecklat p
As decarbonization pressures increase for energy-intensive processing industries, understanding demand side readiness is essential in order to scale up breakthrough technologies. This thesis investigates the willingness to pay (WTP) for green steel in the North American automotive industry, with a focus on steel produced by the H2-DRI-EAF route, where hydrogen is produced from renewable electricit
Behovet av palliativ vård i hemmet ökar i takt med att fler patienter önskar vårdas i sin hemmiljö vid livets slut. Detta ställer höga krav på sjuksköterskans kompetens och självständighet. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att vårda palliativt sjuka i hemmet. Studien är en icke-systematisk litteraturstudie med induktiv ansats och baseras på tio kvali
This study aims to investigate how corporate venture capital (CVC) and independent venture capital (IVC) influence innovation and financial outcomes in biotechnology firms following their initial public offering (IPO), and how factors like technological fit and failure tolerance mediate innovation outcomes. Using a sample of US-based biotechnology firms that completed IPOs between 2010 and 2020, w

Authors: Amanda Gunnarson, Daniel Hansson and Mattias Karhi. Supervisor: Olof Hallonsten Keywords: Control, bureaucracy, normative, growth, brand culture. Research question
This thesis investigated the potential of using reactive power compensation to solve overvoltage issues caused by high amounts of distributed generation, such as rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems, in the low voltage grid. High voltages are caused by increasing distributed generation as the Swedish power grid shifts from centralised to decentralised power production. The aim was to manage overvol
Using data on Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) transactions available on the S&P Capital IQ database, this paper aims to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on Emerging Market Multinational Enterprises (EMNEs). Basing itself on the idea that EMNEs may differ significantly in their behavior, investment patterns, and strategic choices from their counterparts from already established ma
This study investigates why certain Swedish companies voluntarily choose to implement the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) before it becomes a formal requirement. Through qualitative interviews with sustainability managers, the thesis explores how companies strategically justify their decisions and how they interpret and adapt to the new regulatory framework. The analysis is bas
Betsockerprocessen är en energiintensiv process där ångdriven indunstning används för att avlägsna stora mängder vatten från den upprenade tunnsaften, som innehåller det från betorna extraherade sockret. I takt med industrins önskade fokus på energieffektivisering har membranteknologier för förkoncentrering av tunnsaften fått ett ökat intresse. Trots lovande resultat i ett begränsat antal försök åThe beet sugar process is an energy intensive process relying on steam evaporation to remove large amounts of water from the purified thin juice containing the sugar extracted from the beets. As the industry seeks greater energy efficiency, membrane technology for pre-concentration of thin juice has attracted interest. Limited trials have shown promise but fouling, sugar losses or high osmotic pre
