I en värld där bilder flödar från sociala medier, e-handel och inspirationssajter blir det allt viktigare att snabbt kunna tolka och interagera med visuellt innehåll. Samtidigt ställer användare allt högre krav på interaktiva upplevelser där de enkelt kan identifiera och få information om objekt de ser i bilder. Detta skapar ett behov av automatiserade lösningar som kan förstå och kategorisera objThis thesis presents a pipeline for automated object identification and dot based annotation in User Generated Content (UGC) images. The need for this type of model is motivated by IKEA’s digital product ”Content Recommendations” which aims to enhance customer engagement through shoppable UGC images and addresses the challenge of detecting specific products in various, real-world visual contexts.

On 15 April 2025, the Conseil d’État (French Supreme Tax Court), for the first time, referred preliminary questions to the CJEU to determine whether the Marks & Spencer exception can apply within the French tax consolidation regime. This unprecedented referral follows years of internal divergences over the scope of a case law principle that is both central and controversial: the right, under c

Over the past century, films and series about Empress Elisabeth of Austria, known as Sisi, have reflected her lasting role in European cultural memory. These cinematic portrayals continually reimagined her character. This thesis focuses on one aspect: her rebelliousness, exploring how it is constructed in film and how it has evolved over the past seventy years in response to shifting societal norm

With the rapid development of Digital Rights Management (DRM), Technological Protection Measures (TPM) and Rights Management Information (RMI) as components of DRM have become essential tools for safeguarding copyright. The WIPO Copyright Treaty (WCT) and the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty (WPPT) were the first international agreements to establish protections for TPM and RMI. Subsequentl

The development of the European Union’s (EU) sustainability legislation has significantly influenced its external trade policy, especially through the Trade and Sustainable Development (TSD) chapters in Free Trade Agreements (FTAs). The enforceability of these chapters has evolved from a cooperative, dialogue-based model to one that increasingly allows sanctions and legal consequences. This thesis

Bakgrund: Intensivvårdssjuksköterskor arbetar dagligen i en högteknologisk miljö med kritiskt sjuka patienter och höga krav ställs på IVA-sjuksköterskan. I tidigare forskning har man kunnat se hur stressen i vården påverkar sjuksköterskorna, men nyare forskning i Sverige om IVA-sjuksköterskors upplevelse och hantering av arbetsrelaterad stress utan aspekten av Covid-19 tycks saknas. Syfte: Syftet

Dead wood is a key element in forest ecosystems and a wide range of organisms are dependent on this substrate for development and reproduction. Saproxylic beetles are important decomposers of dead wood and serve as food for many organisms. Due to the significant forestry-related decrease of dead wood in rural areas, many species of saproxylic beetles are considered threatened. Thus, other spaces h

Bakgrund: Delirium är ett tillstånd vars karakteristiska drag är akut kognitiv dysfunktion, desorientering och fluktuerande uppmärksamhet. Delirium medför längre vårdtiden och ökar risken för ökad mortalitet, och delirium ses som ett underskattat tillstånd. Intensivvårdssjuksköterskans roll i bedömning och omhändertagande av patienter med delirium är därför en central del. Det krävs en stor empati

In cancer cells, when two different genes are rearranged and joined, a fusion gene results and can act as a tumour driver. While many programs to predict fusion transcripts based on RNA-sequencing data do exist, the predictions contain many false positives without underlying genomic rearrangements. With the release of a new fusion validation pipeline to address this shortcoming, we have created a
