Fokus på offentliga diskussioner och vetenskapliga utforskningar som berör intim human-robot-interaction blir alltmer framträdande. Likväl saknas det psykometriska instrument avsedda för explorationen av intim social kontakt mellan människa och social robot. Det övergripande syftet med denna studie var att utveckla ett nytt psykometriskt test, Robot Intimate Receptiveness Scale (RIRS) för undersökPublic discussions and scientific inquiries centered around human-robot relationships are rapidly gaining momentum. As artificial intelligence integrates into new social landscapes, corresponding scientific explorations are called for. As of today, there are no psychometric instruments tailored to measure intimate social contact within human-robot contexts. In the light of this gap, the primary ob
During high speed machining of titanium alloys both the tool and workpiece material diffuse into one another affecting the surface integrity of the cutting tool edge and leading to fracture. One proposed mechanism by which the tool integrity is compromised results from the possible formation of porosity in to subsurface of the tool substrate close to the tool cutting edge. In this study the porosi
With the popularization and development of CV technology, the SLAM algorithm is widely used in scenarios such as self-driving cars and autonomous navigation robots. As a key step in the SLAM system, the BA algorithm is responsible for optimizing camera parameters and 3D point coordinates. BA obtains more accurate estimates by shrinking the re-projection error. So as to support the SLAM system
This paper focuses on the detection of structural breaks in the second-order matrices of multivariate time series. A comprehensive simulation-based comparison is conducted to measure the performance of three widely cited nonparametric methods that allow for serial dependence in the data: the pure CUSUM procedure with binary segmentation in Aue et al., (2009), the CUSUM-based sparsified binary segm
Detta arbete avser utreda vad mark- och miljödomstolen får göra, måste göra samt vad mark- och miljödomstolen gör i praktiken. Med vad domstolen får göra avses frivilliga initiativ domstolen tar i processen. Exempelvis att domstolen väljer att på olika sett styra processen eller inhämta bevisning. Med vad domstolen måste göra avses domstolen måste förhålla sig till när domstolen fattar beslut. ExeThe Land and Environment Court must base its decision on the procedural material and is bound to decide on the part of the cadastral procedure that is being contested. In theory, the court also have the right to provide their own evidence. In practice, the court plays a very passive role and use this right very seldomly. The rights and obligations of the court are not self-evident. Among the judg
Why don't we learn about nutrition and cooking at school? Primary research and interviews conducted at a high school in Lund reveal that parents are the ones cooking (or ordering takeaways) at home, and that students have no understanding of how food is prepared in their school. At university, students are most commonly seen eating frozen meals and pasta for lunch. Yet Swedish students receive
Kvalitetskontrollsmodell för textilåtervinning 2025 infördes en EU-lag som gjorde det obligatoriskt att sortera textilavfall separat. Här presenteras grunden för en modell som relaterar reaktorparametrar till kvalité på återvunnen textilmassa. Textilindustrin omfattade 2024 knappt 2 biljoner USD. Det är en global industri där textilierna ofta designas i USA, produceras i asiatiska länder och slutTextile recycling is highly needed as great amounts of waste are produced every year and most of it is put into landfill or incinerated. This thesis lays the foundations for a quality control system which may be applied for controlling the recycling of cellulosic textiles in an upcoming pilot plant based on ShareTex’s technology. The quality control system was constructed as a mathematical model r
This Master’s thesis studies the effect of infrasound acoustic waves on heat transfer enhancement for industrial purposes. Previous research has demonstrated the cap ability of infrasound to cool steel uniformly, with performance comparable to forced convection. This opens the possibility of increasing the efficiency of the cooling process while also enabling new potential cooling methods for diff
This study sought to evaluate the historical impact of changes to an ordering page of an online travel agency on its conversion rates. Data gathered from the website over a year, detailing aspects such as travel dates, prices, itineraries, number of passengers, travel time, and carriers, was analyzed. External data sources were also included, with the dataset covering 12 changes to the website'

The main theme of this project is inventory control with stochastic demand. In this thesis, we consider a two-echelon inventory system that consists of one central warehouse and N retail stores. Customer demands at the retailers follow independent Poisson demand processes and each customer only demands one unit. Customer demands which are not satisfied directly from stock on hand are assumed to ba
Idag sker majoriteten av alla kommersiella fastighetstransaktioner via bolag. Detta sker genom att först låta paketera fastigheterna i bolag, för att sedan avyttra aktierna i bolagen där fastigheterna ingår. Drivkraften bakom förvärvsmetoden är sänkta transaktionskostnader, främst genom skattebesparingar. Detta innebär att allt färre transaktioner sker på traditionellt vis, det vill säga som fast The trend of increasing commercial real estate transactions via companies has a negative impact on the process of estimating the taxable values. This due to the sharp decrease of comparison material for our Swedish authorities. Real estate transactions via companies also enable information about the transaction to be kept secret from outside parties. The study aims to show how various parties in t
As computer vision becomes widely adopted, more applications demand a large effective field of view, something which is aptly accommodated by fisheye cameras. Autonomous driving vehicles, for example, require a full panorama view of their environment in order to navigate effectively. This requirement could be satisfied with as few as four fisheye cameras, one on each side of the car. However, due
