Higher Education for Refugees: The Case of Syria

The refugee crisis is also a crisis in education. While attention is frequently directed toward primary and secondary school levels, higher education is a strategic issue for refugees, both as individuals and for long term processes of post-conflict recovery and peacebuilding. Education prospects and content are drivers of onwards migration, but also affect economic structures on return. Higher ed

Swinging between Finding and Justification: Judicial Citation and International Law-Making

Based on the ever increasing interpretation and application of international law by domestic courts, this paper offers an insight into the practices of judicial citation of international and domestic jurisdictions while adjudicating international criminal law related matters. The paper considers selected instances of judicial citation and operates a prima facie distinction between judicial citatio

Digitalisering av socialt arbete kräver kraftsamling

Socialtjänsten. Det finns flera nyttor med att digitalisera det sociala arbetet; det sänker exempelvis tröskeln för kommunikation med socialtjänsten. Vår nya kunskapsöversikt på området pekar på utmaningar, bland annat juridiska, och möjliga vägar framåt. Samhället är redan i hög grad digitaliserat, då måste den offentliga förvaltningen måste följa med.

The influence of native language word order and cognitive biases in pictorial event representations

Ever since Goldin-Meadow, S., C. Mylander, W. C. So, and A. Özyürek. 2008. The natural order of events: How speakers of different languages represent events nonverbally. PNAS 105: 9163–9168. proposed that there is a preferred order in sequential non-verbal event representations (Actor > Patient > Act), apparently independent of the default word order in one’s native language, the topic has been th

Haptic Perception with a Robotic Hand

Abstract in UndeterminedWe have developed an 8 d.o.f. robot hand which has been tested with three computational models of haptic perception. Two of the models are based on the tensor product of different proprioceptive and sensory signals and a self-organizing map (SOM), and one uses a novel self-organizing neural network, the T-MPSOM. The computational models have been trained and tested with a s

Characterising the vulnerability of linear control systems under sensor attacks using a system's security index

We introduce the 'security index' of a discrete-time, linear time-invariant system under sensor attacks as a quantitative representation-free measure on the vulnerability of an observable system. Ideas from linear coding theory are employed in providing conditions for attack detection and correction in terms of a system's security index, along with methods for its computation based on different re

Associating SOM Representations of Haptic Submodalities

We have experimented with a bio-inspired selforganizingtexture and hardness perception system whichautomatically learns to associate the representations of the twosubmodalities with each other. To this end we have developeda microphone based texture sensor and a hardness sensor that measures the compression of the material at a constant pressure. The system is based on a novel variant of the Self-
