The main goal of this thesis is to show how operational risk can be measured if even the use of standard extreme value theory fails to explain single catastrophic events in the tail of the distribution. Against the background of regulatory requirements imposed by the Basel Accords, an Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) is developed for a dataset of operational losses occurred in US businesses bet
The 1980’s and 1990’s was a time for increased global trade liberalisation, when more countries started to join preferential trade agreements with other states. At the same time, income inequality increased in some parts of the world. The role of trade in increasing income inequality has been debated by previous research, and has not been able to come to a conclusive answer. A central question is
The sharing economy is currently widely discussed and politically of great importance, especially in urban areas. After a first rise in public interest due to a potential decrease of consumption, engaged actors are now calling for regulation mechanisms to defend the concept against the co-option by large incumbent firms, who transform the original idea into new economic opportunities. The accommod
In recent years, several interesting wearable products which originates from smartphone technology have been introduced on the market. One of these products which has increased in interest, but not yet received a commercial breakthrough, is smart glasses. As the technology is still young and undeveloped, few players have embarked on the market and there is still room for improvement. In this thesi
The molecular imprinting technique can be defined as the formation of specific nano-sized cavities by means of template-directed synthesis. The resulting molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), which often have an affinity and a selectivity approaching those of antibody-antigen systems, have thus been coined "artificial antibodies." MIPs are characterized by their high specificity, ease of preparat
Popular Abstract in English Fuel cells have been considered as alternative power source to petroleum oil. Especially, fuel cells have potentials to provide no pollutant emission (e.g., CO2, NOx, SOx) out of the power generation. For instance, once the fuel cells are installed instead of combustion engine in the cars used for commuting, transportation and leisure, the amount of pollutant emission cFuel cells are considered as a promising alternative environmentally benign power source to the existing ones depending on petroleum oil. Especially, proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have been intensively developed during the last decade because of their wide application windows including various portable, stationary and transportation applications. The market has been and will be main
A recently identified polysaccharide utilisation locus (PUL) from Bacteroides ovatus ATCC8483 is transcriptionally upregulated during growth on galacto- and glucomannans. It encodes two putative glycoside hydrolase family 26 (GH26) β-mannanases, BoMan26A and BoMan26B, and a GH36 α-galactosidase, BoGal36A. The PUL also includes two glycan binding proteins, confirmed by β-mannan affinity electrophorA recently identified polysaccharide utilization locus (PUL) from Bacteroides ovatus ATCC 8483 is transcriptionally up-regulated during growth on galacto- and glucomannans.

I assume that the Language Faculty is stable, it does not vary though time and space, and that language development requires experience (Chomsky 1995, 2005, 2011). I develop the view that language evolutionary development is the result of the interaction of the languag

The EU was initially created as an area of free trade amongst its Member States, its main objective is the realization of the full integration of the internal market. Of central importance to the objective is the fundamental freedoms and thereby the free movement of goods. However, in recent decades issues of an environmental nature have become more prevalent within the EU legal order and a framew

The building and construction industry is responsible for around 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions, driving the urgent need for new regulations. As such, the life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology has become fundamental for evaluating environmental impacts. Despite the need for digital tools to support environmental performance evaluations, the lack of guidance on developing such tools hinde
Gasoline partially premixed combustion (PPC) has the potential of high efficiency and simultaneous low soot and NOx emissions. Running the engine in PPC mode with high octane number fuels has the advantage of a longer premix period of fuel and air which reduces soot emissions. The problem is the ignitability at low load and idle operating conditions.In a previous study it was shown that it is possGasoline partially premixed combustion (PPC) has the potential of high efficiency and simultaneous low soot and NOx emissions.

Bookstart is a reading promotion programme for small children aged 0-3. In this thesis we have examined how librarians work with this programme in Landskrona. The librarians are reaching out to preschools, open preschools and child health care centers to develop a long-term programme in collaboration with these institutions. The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to a better understanding of
In recent years there has been a large increase in available data from the electric grid in Finland. The availability of both operational as well as financial data enables exploration of forecasting energy prices using deep learning techniques. As a result this thesis implements the Multi-Horizon Quantile Recurrent Neural Network (MQRNN) to forecast the regulating price in the Finnish energy marke

Popular Abstract in English Plants harvest sunlight to fix air carbon dioxide into a form which is the fundamental source of energy for other organisms such as animals. The domestication of crop plants and traditional breeding practices has resulted in increased yield and nutritional value of crops. This comes at a cost of loss in genetic variability that is required by living organisms to adapt tPotato is one of the major food crops and its yield is severely affected by late blight disease caused by Phytophthora infestans. P. infestans has the ability to manipulate plant defence signalling by secreting effector molecules causing so called effector triggered susceptibility. Some plants can recognize these effectors via resistance proteins that reactivate plant defence and lead to effector
