Rational, autonomous agents that are able to achieve their goals in dynamic, partially observable environments are the ultimate dream of Artificial Intelligence research since its beginning. The goal of this PhD thesis is to propose, develop and evaluate a framework well suited for creating intelligent agents that would be able to learn from experience, thus becoming more efficient at solving thei

Moving to a new country and living in a new culture involves many processes of change and adaptation for the individual. Not only is the person surrounded by a new language, different norms, behaviour and traditions, but suddenly he or she is also an “immigrant” in this new society. This study was set out to examine the experience of being an immigrant in Sweden, with the aim to make the Swedish s

Background: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), which has been reported to be present in 10-30% of patients with cirrhotic ascites, may easily be overlooked. An important aim of our study was to determine whether there are any clinical signs which, in clinical practice, may predict or exclude SBP. Methods: We studied 133 patients with cirrhotic ascites from medical units at nine Swedish unive

Det är inget ovanligt med inkomstöverföringar mellan företag i en internationell företagsgrupp, d.v.s. att medel som inte utgör en marknadsmässig ersättning för en motprestation överförs mellan företag i intressegemenskap. Motiven för detta kan vara att minska inkomstskatten i ett högskatteland genom att överföra vinster till ett mer skatteförmånligt land, eller att minska den totala skattebelastnThis thesis aims to analyze the elements of transfer pricing with emphasis on the peculiarities that the nature of intellectual property involve and the difficulties that enterprises may face when implementing transfer pricing. The concept of transfer pricing relates to the system of assessing the price for the transfer of goods, services and intangibles between member entities of a multinational

PhD in Public Health since 2022, MD, Scientific Manager in Medical Science at the Novo Nordisk Foundation My name is Esther González-Padilla. I moved to Sweden after finishing my medical degree from the Canary Islands (Spain). The Öresund Region was particularly attractive to me as it is known to be a strong Life Sciences Hub. The possibility to access digitalised medical records and to learn in E

Tourists are gathering to discover the ancient monuments of Sweden. A rising number of people find interest in exploring the cultural landscape. When they do, they often visit a few well-advertised sights that are easy to find through tourist information or online search engines. These popular tourist attractions provide economical benefits for local companies and can be part of maintaining a flou

Problem statement This master thesis was initiated since today, when developing a new mobile phone at Sony Ericsson, it is difficult to get a perception of the ergonomics and the tactility of the keyboard before the first design prototype (DP0 and DP1) is built. The SLA block model used today is completely solid and consequently a secured decision of the final design can not be made in this phase

Vätgas har potential i ett energilagringssystem eftersom det är en energibärare som är väldigt energirik och kan lagras i stor skala. Vätgas kan produceras enkelt via elektrolys av vatten och lagras i stora mängd under högt tryck, vid behov kan vätgasen sedan brännas i en kraftverksprocess och generera elektricitet. Då förbränning av vätgas med syrgas enbart bildar vattenånga kan ett förnybart eneHydrogen gas has potential to function as an energy storage solution due to its high energy content and its suitability for large scale storage. Hydrogen can be produced by water electrolysis and can be stored in large scale under high pressure, when needed the hydrogen can be burned in a thermal power plant to generate electricity. Since combustion of hydrogen with pure oxygen only yields steam,

The Biodiversity and Conservation Science research group aims to increase knowledge of the consequences of climate and habitat change for different species. Human activities lead to changed conditions for humans as well as plants and animals. The climate changes and what was a good environment for a population to live in can suddenly be a bad environment. In return, better conditions can arise els

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies are valuable tools for identifying high impact processes and redesigning supply chains. However, LCAs have limits, in the sense that they offer insight into relative sustainability and don't question whether a product, or its use, is sustainable in absolute terms. In this intentionally provocative paper, you join Emma, a fictional average American 15-year-old, a

Att bygga stommar med enbart trä beskrivs gärna som en lågt hängande frukt i strävan mot att bygga mer miljövänliga hus, men sådana konstruktioner tar i anspråk större utrymme än andra lösningar. Då areapriset för bostäder är högt inom storstäder uppstår ibland situationer där en träkonstruktion inte blir lönsam eller helt enkelt inte får plats, det visar sig då att en träbaserad hybridkonstruktioIt is necessary for all industries to work actively to minimize their impact on the climate, including the construction industry, which accounts for a significant part of Sweden's total CO_2-emissions. Development to produce concrete and steel with more environmentally friendly processes is ongoing, but to lower emissions immediately and achieve long-term sustainability, we need to develop met

In Sweden there are several political goals stating the importance of diminished quantities of waste from the food sector, yet several thousand tons of potentially edible food are being discarded of every year. This study has examined the hindrances and opportunities of six different organizations/initiatives working to lower the rates of food waste from retail stores. It has also looked into pote
