Using Synthetic Data For Object Detection on the edge in Hazardous Environments

This thesis aims to evaluate which aspects are important when generating synthetic data with the purpose of running on a lightweight object detection model on an edge device. The task we constructed was to detect Canisters and whether they feature a protective valve called a Cap or not (called a No-Cap). The problem was split into three separate classes in order to evaluate objects with varying si

Reclaiming the Past and the Present: The Presentation and Representation of Ethnic Minorities in Cultural Institutions

Data Augmentation for Object Detection using Deep Reinforcement Learning

Data augmentation is a concept which is used to improve machine learning models for computer vision tasks. It is usually done by firstly, defining a set of functions which transforms images and secondly, applying a random selection of these functions on the images. Since the quality of training data is one of the, if not the most important factor to obtain a good model, this master thesis poses th

Spectrally resolved insect flashes by sunlight

Insects are vital for the environment and biodiversity. Optics-based remote techniques can quickly and effectively identify and track insects in their natural habitat. This has the potential to speed up and improve the time-consuming process of manually monitoring insect diversity. This thesis presents a method to remotely sense insects by analyzing the sunlight reflected by free-flying insects. T

Exploring the Placement of Gambling Problems within the Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology

Gambling problems often coexist with various psychopathological conditions. The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP; Kotov et al., 2017) offers an empirically based model to structure psychopathological symptoms into broader dimensional spectra, including internalizing (anxious-depressive), externalizing (impulsive-aggressive), and thought disorder (dissociated-psychotic) symptoms. The

Natura 2000-områdens roll i omprövningen av vattenkraftens miljötillstånd

Vattenkraften utgör ungefär 45 % av Sveriges elproduktion och har varit en stabil energikälla med lågt koldioxidutsläpp under lång tid. Med ett allt större inslag av intermittenta energislag i elsystemet, fyller vattenkraften också en viktig funktion med sin reglerförmåga för balansering. Trots sina fördelar som en lagringsbar energikälla är det tydligt att vattenkraften har negativa effekter på SHydropower stands for around 45 % of Sweden’s electricity production and has been a stable energy source with low carbon emissions for a long time. With increasing share of intermittent energy sources in the electricity system, hydropower also plays a crucial role in balancing the grid. Despite its advantages as a storable energy source, it is clear that hydropower has negative effects on Sweden’s
