Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad innebär politik efter det internationella? Många samtida perspektiv på internationell politik konvergerar i synen på 'det internationella' som en överspelad idé, men divergerar i synen på vilken typ av politik som växer fram i dess ställe. Den moderna staten har varit avgörande för betydelsen av säkerhet, territorialitet och auktoritet - begrepp konstituerande för iWhat does a politics after the international mean? Many strands of contemporary scholarship converge on the image of the international as obsolete, but strongly diverge on the contours of the kinds of politics that are superseding it. The modern state has been pivotal to the meaning of security, territory and authority?concepts central to the idea of the international?but they do not necessarily h

The main idea of this paper is to use distances between camera positions to recover the trajectory of a mobile robot. We consider a mobile platform equipped with a single fixed camera using images of the floor and their associated inter-image homographies to find these distances. We show that under the assumptions that the camera is rigidly mounted with a constant tilt and travelling at a constant

Mounting discoveries of extrasolar planets orbiting post-main-sequence stars motivate studies to understand the fate of these planets. In the traditional 'adiabatic' approximation, a secondary's eccentricity remains constant during stellar mass-loss. Here, we remove this approximation, investigate the full two-body point-mass problem with isotropic mass-loss, and illustrate the resulting dynamical

Low-rank matrix factorization is an essential problem in many areas including computer vision, with applications in e.g. affine structure-from-motion, photometric stereo, and non-rigid structure from motion. However, very little attention has been drawn to minimal cases for this problem or to using the minimal configuration of observations to find the solution. Minimal problems are useful when eit

We propose new feature-based methods for rigid and affine image registration. These are compared to state-of-the-art intensity-based techniques as well as existing feature-based methods. On challenging datasets of brain MR and whole-body CT images, a significant improvement in terms of speed, robustness to outlier structures and dependence on initialization is shown.

The role of biomass burning aerosols in the climate system is still poorly quantified, in part due to uncertainties regarding the optical properties of elemental and organic carbon (EC and OC, respectively), the main constituents of pyrogenic aerosols. In this study, we utilize comprehensive physical and chemical field measurements of biomass burning aerosols in Brazil to constrain the densities a

This research paper analyses and assesses the impacts of the Israeli imposed physical obstructions on the mobility of the Palestinians in the West Bank, using a case study focused on the Bethlehem – Ramallah route. Arguably, the prevailing Israeli imposed physical obstructions, or mobility restrictions, in the West Bank territory have negative implications on the articulation of sustainable Palest

The proto-oncogene SKI is highly expressed in human myeloid leukemia and also in murine hematopoietic stem cells. However, its operative relevance in these cells remains elusive. We have over-expressed SKI to define its intrinsic role in hematopoiesis and myeloid neoplasms, which resulted in a robust competitive advantage upon transplantation, a complete dominance of the stem and progenitor compar

During the last decades, image analysis has become an important tool in various applications. The increase in computer power has led to that more advances algorithms can be developed. In this thesis image analysis has been used in three different applications; quality control of asphalt, cancer detection in histopathological images and traffic surveillance. In the first part of the thesis image a

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

In this paper, we study machine learning techniques and features of electroencephalography activity bursts for predicting outcome in extremely preterm infants. It was previously shown that the distribution of interburst interval durations predicts clinical outcome, but in previous work the information within the bursts has been neglected. In this paper, we perform exploratory analysis of feature e

Background: Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) are hypothesised to be risk factors for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), a group of haematological malignancies with a suspected environmental aetiology. Within the EnviroGenoMarkers study we utilised pre-diagnostic erythrocyte concentrations of Cd and Pb to determine whether exposure was associated with risk of B-cell NHL and multiple myeloma.
