In this paper, we describe a system that automatically converts narratives into 3D scenes. The texts, written in Swedish, describe road accidents. One of the program’s key features is that it animates the generated scene using temporal relations between the events. We believe that this system is the first text-to-scene converter that is not restricted to invented narratives. The system consists of
The paper presents main conceptual distinctions underlying much of modern philosophical thinking about value. The introductory Section 1 is followed in Section 2 by an outline of the contrast between non-relational value (impersonal good, or good, period) and relational value (good for someone, or—more generally—good for some entity). In Section 3, the focus is on the distinction between final and

The electronic structure of the cuprate superconductors Bi(2)Sr(2)CaCu(2)O(8) and Bi(2)Sr(2)CuO(6) and the bismuthate superconductor Ba(0.6)K(0.4)BiO(3), as well as semiconducting Ba(0.9)K(0.1)BiO(3), have been studied by electron spectroscopy techniques. The intention has been to investigate fundamental properties of the metallic state such as the importance of strong electron correlations. In ad
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify and describe trends that can potentially influence information sharing in supply chains in 2025. Design/methodology/approach The empirical data was gathered from twelve semi-structured interviews with individuals representing different retail supply chains actors as well as senior consultants and academics, and an employee of the Swedish Government
Popular Abstract in Swedish Pankreascancer (cancer i bukspottkörteln) drabbar årligen mer än 200 000 personer över hela världen, varav omkring 900 i Sverige. Sjukdomen är starkt associerad till ökad ålder och drabbar följaktligen väldigt sällan personer under 40 år, medan risken att drabbas vid 80 års ålder är 40 gånger förhöjd. På grund av dess mycket aggressiva tillväxt, tidiga metastasering samPancreatic cancer includes multiple histologic subtypes that show large differences in their clinical and biological characteristics. Despite this diversity, more than 85% of the neoplasms in the organ are malignant ductal adenocarcinomas, which are the focus of the present thesis. At the genetic level this tumor type is characterized by highly rearranged karyotypes, resulting in a large number of
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om hjälpande och framförallt om givande till välgörenhet. De två centrala frågorna som ställs handlar om när vi hjälper (i vilka situationer hjälper vi mer eller mindre?) och om varför vi hjälper i dessa situationer (vilka sorters känslor och tankar gör oss mer motiverade att hjälpa?) Hjälpeffekter: När hjälper vi? Frågan om när vi hjälper hanThe overarching purpose of this thesis was to investigate if different helping effects can be specifically linked to different psychological mechanisms. Helping effects (i.e. the when of helping) refer to situational differences that can increase or decrease the probability of helping. The three helping effects in focus in this thesis, were (1) the identifiable victim effect (the tendency to be
In modern industrialised society prepared meals and eating out of home is an increasing phenomenon. This develops new business opportunities for food manufacturers, since they need to create more convenience to the consumers through food that can be prepared and served quickly. However, the new food products require increased quality and safety and thereby more controlled distribution. The issue i
Normal maturation of immune response at birth is both supported and stimulated by the gastrointestinal microenvironment, which provides both nutrients and antigenic microbial exposure to the developing child. Micronutrients, trace elements, and vitamins are present in the local environment and have important regulatory effects on adaptive immune cell function through effects on type of cytokine re
