This thesis investigates the feasibility and performance of implementing attention-based machine learning models for high-precision cellular localization on low-power hardware. While such models, particularly those using the self-attention mechanism, have demonstrated impressive accuracy in extracting spatial information from wireless signals, they typically rely on GPU acceleration, limiting thei
Machine Protection Systems (MPS) at the European Spallation Source (ESS) aim to protect equipment from damage while minimizing accelerator downtime with respect to safety and availability requirements. Main Control Room operators and MPS experts rely on alarm systems to effectively detect faults and guide intervention actions. Current implementations in the Fast Beam Interlock System (FBIS) are pr
I use the full count data of census year 1910 to examine the intermarriage determinants in Swedish immigrants and the consequences to those who were married to natives compared to their counterparts in endogamy. The results from intermarriage determinants were in line with prior research in general. The results showed that immigrants in exogamy with natives wouldn’t have a high probability o

Studien bygger på kvalitativ metod, med diskursanalys av samtal mellan elever och Gemini samt tematisk analys av semistrukturerade intervjuer. Resultaten visar att de flesta elever upplevde samtalen som positiva och att flera språkliga d
Kravet på medvetenhet är en förutsättning för straffrättsligt ansvar och innebär att en person ska ha varit i tillräcklig grad medveten om sitt handlande. Medvetenhetskravet regleras inte i lag, utan har utvecklats genom praxis och doktrin. Uppsatsens syfte är att redogöra för gällande rätt om kravet på medvetenhet inom svensk straffrätt och att undersöka dess potentiella påverkan på rättssäkerhetThe consciousness requirement is a prerequisite for criminal liability and means that a person must have been sufficiently conscious in order to be aware of his or her actions. The consciousness requirement is not regulated in law, it has developed through practice and doctrine. The purpose of the essay is to clarify the consciousness requirement in Swedish criminal law and to examine its potentia
Rätten ska obligatoriskt verka för förlikning enligt 42 kap. 17 § Rätte-gångsbalken. Lagtexten saknar i stor del anvisningar för vad det innebär att en domare “verkar” för förlikning. Syftet med uppsatsen är att klargöra rättens skyldigheter och möjligheter i förlikningsverksamheten vid dispo-sitiva tvistemål. Det görs genom att besvara tre delfrågor. Under vilka om-ständigheter ska rätten verka fThe court is under a mandatory obligation to promote settlement according to Chapter 42, Section 17 of Rättegångsbalken. However, the statutory provis ion largely lacks guidance on what it entails for a judge to “promote” settle ment. The purpose of this thesis is to clarify the court’s duties and discret ionary powers in settlement efforts within dispositive civil cases. This is done by address
Purpose: To investigate whether the U.S.-centred M&A literature translates to the heterogeneous European markets by analysing the impact of economic distress, uncertainty, and relatedness on stock performance. Methodology: This thesis utilises an event study to provide a perspective on immediate M&A announcement impacts. Subsequently, we examine the acquirer’s post-announcement performanc
Bakgrund: Postoperativa kognitiva komplikationer, såsom postoperativt delirium (POD) och postoperativ kognitiv dysfunktion (POCD), är vanliga hos äldre patienter efter kirurgi. Anestesidjup har identifierats som en möjlig påverkande faktor, där övervakning med bispektralt index (BIS) kan bidra till en mer individanpassad anestesistyrning och därmed minska risken för negativa kognitiva utfall. Tidi
3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has emerged as the latest breakthrough in 3D reconstruction since it can provide photorealistic 3D reconstruction with real-time rendering. Despite its increasing popularity, it lacks an accessible and clear end-to-end workflow, and the use for it in interactive and immersive applications remains largely unexplored. Furthermore, with the constant development of new 3DG
This thesis aims to address the complex legal challenges related to the responsibility of multinational corporations for human rights violations and environmental harm in global supply chains. Starting from the context of increasing pressure on transnational businesses and the shortcomings of soft law instruments such as the UN Guiding Principles and the OECD Guidelines, the study examines the pot
Rehabilitation exercises are essential for recovery from many injuries, and their practice is guided by physical therapists in order to avoid the risk of further damage. The physical therapists have limited tools for conducting a quantified assessment of movement quality and this study investigates whether machine learning could be used to improve that process. A way to assess movement is to analy
The Azerbaijani city of Shusha stands out as an exemplary place for reconstruction based on the principles of sustainable development in the post-conflict era. This research examines the city of Shusha’s aim of building a sustainable city model from scratch and focuses on two major directions: the transition to solar-based systems in the city’s energy supply and the establishment of a clean transp

Introduction: Mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation (MARylation) is a post tranlational modification with important roles in stress responses and cellular signaling. Mass spectrometry is an efficient tool for identifying modified amino acid residues, optimisation of parameters is desired to develop an efficient method for detection of MARylation on proteins using the recombinant protein NUDT16. Background: MAR
The number and complexity of modern software systems have increased substantially since their inception. This unrelenting growth is making manual code review more difficult year by year, and the gap between the amount of code and security verification creates a critical need for automated tools that can assist developers in detecting vulnerabilities. A possible solution to this is large language m
The task of matching fixed-order event generation with the parton shower is physically non-trivial and closely related to an efficiency bottleneck of event generators. In this thesis, we examine and implement two novel matching schemes in KrkNLO and MAcNLOPS for the LHC process p p > Z Z. As both schemes generate positive-definite event samples, they can be interesting alternatives to MC@NLO. The
Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are widely used to treat respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The performance of DPI formulations is influenced by the properties of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), but systematic comparative studies of different APIs under the same processing conditions remain limited. This study investigated the effects of di
Micro- and nanoscale pollutants dispersed at low concentrations in the environment pose increasing threats to human health and ecosystems. However, investigating the properties of individual particles remains challenging because conventional characterization methods mainly rely on ensemble measurements. Optical tweezers provide a promising approach for single-particle trapping and open new possibi
In recent years, as 6G wireless systems continue to develop, high-accuracy indoor localization has become increasingly important for future wireless systems. At the same time, reliable indoor positioning is needed by many location-aware applications, such as robotic navigation, emergency healthcare, and smart transportation. Since indoor wireless measurements can vary over time due to multipath pr
Wind damage is one of the most economically and ecologically significant natural disturbances in European forests, yet the cloud cover that follows major storms routinely blocks optical satellite acquisitions for weeks, precisely when rapid damage mapping is most valuable. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) circumvents this limitation through all-weather imaging, but pixel-level windthrow detection fr
