Development of Lidar Techniques for Environmental Studies

The lidar group in Lund has performed many DIAL measurements with a mobile lidar system that was first described in 1987. The lidar system is based on a Nd: YAG-pumped dye laser. During the last few years the lidar group has focused on fluorescence imaging and mercury measurements in the troposphere. In 1994 we performed two campaigns: one fluorescence imaging measurement campaign outside A vignon

Calculations of accurate energies in proteins with QM/MM methods

Popular Abstract in Swedish Många har frågat mig vad mitt doktorandprojekt egentligen handlar om. Mitt svar brukar variera beroende på hur insatt personen ifråga är. Normal brukar jag börja med ungefär följande förklaring: I våra kroppar finns proteiner som hjälper till att utföra och reglera kemin som krävs för att hålla de biologiska processerna igång. Att förstå denna kemi kan vara till hjälp Accurate calculation of energies for protein reactions is a hard problem. There are many reasons for wanting to calculate these energies, e.g. ligand design and the study of enzyme reactions. There are two major problem involved in these kinds of calculations. First, the large number of local minima in proteins introduces uncertainties when studying single structures. Second, the size of proteins

Pseudo-Boolean Optimization: Theory and Applications in Vision

Many problems in computer vision, such as stereo, segmentation and denoising can be formulated as pseudo-boolean optimization problems. Over the last decade, graphs cuts have become a standard tool for solving such problems. The last couple of years have seen a great advancement in the methods used to minimize pseudoboolean functions of higher order than quadratic. In this paper, we give an overvi

Improving bio-literacy

Expanding bio-energy can help to fight climate change and improve energy security. The bio-energy industry in the EU is booming. Much of this success is based on the supportive EU directives and strategies that are stimulating national policies and innovation processes. However, the bio-energy industry is being confronted with a number of interconnected challenges that threaten its reputation, leg
