To be able to automatically segment cells in microscopic images would give biologist a new tool to gather crucial data in quantities not possible by manual work. This is however not a trivial problem and has proven to be very difficult, especially if the images are in 3D. One of the major challenges is the ability for the methods to generalize beyond the data it has previously been presented with.
One of the core purposes of the Swedish “nämndemannasystem” is to act as representatives of the public in the court systems. The representation aspect of the “nämndemannasystem” has though been declared non-existent or too weak by previous research and the general debate in society, on the ground of its pictorial composition. However, the concept of representation is not that simple as depicted by
As intelligence-led law enforcement becomes more common, criminal networks have adapted and used various methods to disrupt law enforcement’s collection of intelligence. This dynamic has led to non-state actors’ use of counterintelligence as an emerging research field as it's critical to understand how criminal organizations can try to disrupt or neutralize the intelligence cycle This study ai
Between 2014 and 2015 Sweden accepted, by its standards, an unprecedented amount of asylum seekers into the country. The total effect which that had on the country politically and socially may not be fully understood yet but it represented a shifting point in Swedish politics. The image of Sweden as open, tolerant and liberal had been challenged and the political response was a strict tightening o
The field of public diplomacy has become increasingly dependent on the general digitalization in society, and its use of social media platforms as a mean to spread their political message to the general public. Digitalization has made public diplomacy more attainable for the masses, but it has also given states a larger responsibility in which messages they want to convey to the public. This thesi
This dissertation tackles contemporary optimism regarding global income inequality trends from a critical perspective. It looks at the World Bank's influential report on global inequality from 2016, and investigates whether the World Bank's objective notion of themselves is plausible. In the context of the World Bank’s neoliberal ideological roots, the dissertation comes to the conclusion
Blockchain technologies with its promise of transparency and security have during the last decade created quite the political stir. There exists an abundance of information, hype and research regarding blockchains 'disruptive and ‘transformative’ potential concerning every industry from finance to food production. However, there is an absence of scholarly attention given to identifying and ana
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the European Commission’s role in the ordinary legislative procedure. To do so, the thesis examines the case of the newly negotiated reform of the CAP. The Commission has for many years had legislative powers when reforming the CAP. However, since the signing of the Lisbon Treaty, the Commission has only had the formal power to initiate legislative prop
This study aims to examine how NATO-states overtly responds to cyberattacks committed by the believed Russian government sponsored hacker group Fancy Bear. After the end of the Cold War the regulation and acceptance for different kinds of covert actions changed in turn with the change in global power dynamics. The current digital environment develops new ways in which states can spy, gather inform
The chirality-flow formalism has proven to make amplitude calculations in the Standard Model analytically simple in comparison to previously established formalisms. To test the viability of the chirality-flow formalism for numerical implementations, a Chiral Automized Flow Extension (CAFE) for MadGraph5_aMC@NLO has been developed to compare amplitude evaluation time scaling between the two. CAFE u
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) refers to a wireless access technology that equips base station (BS) with hundreds to thousands of antennas to serve tens of user equipment (UE) in the same time-frequency resource. These extensive antennas improve spectral and energy efficiency, but the detection algorithms tend to be more complex with operations, multiplications, and inversions on la
En studie som undersöker kapitalstrukturen i teknologiska bolag genom att undersöka vilken påverkan olika bestämmande faktorer har på hävstången i dessa bolag. I studien undersöks även vilken av de populära teorierna The pecking order theory och The trade off theory, som bäst kan förklara kapitalstrukturen i teknologiska bolag.
Uppsatsens primära syfte är att besvara vad som avses med begreppet penninglån. Subsidiära frågeställningar som besvaras är när en transaktion innebär en överträdelse av det generella låneförbudet. Låneförbudet innebär i huvudregel att ett aktiebolag inte får lämna penninglån till aktieägare, styrelseledamöter och andra som ingår i ”den förbjudna kretsen”. En stor del i bedömningen av vad som utgöThe primary aim of the paper is to answer what is meant by the concept of money lending. Secondary questions to be answered are when a transaction constitutes a violation of the general prohibition of lending. As a general rule, the prohibition on lending means that a limited liability company may not make loans of money to shareholders, directors and others who are part of the "prohibited ci
