Using Mauritania as a case study this thesis compares the decline of two forms of coercive labour, slavery and servitude, to understand how masters’ incentives differ depending on property right and thus affect conditions for decline. By re-analysing sociological research through an economic lens, this thesis offers a new angle on Mauritania’s emancipation process. It is suggested that changed mar
From a universal design perspective, products should attract both people with disabilities and other persons. Design of chairs has decisive importance for activity and independence of users with physical disabilities. In an experimental study aiming at an easy chair with universal design qualities, six able-bodied young adults were asked to position a wide range of photo-represented chairs, includ
Diagnostik av cancer avseende typ och ursprung är tillsammans med hur avancerad cancern är och om vissa särskilda tumöregenskaper föreligger de viktigaste faktorerna för val av behandling. Cancer diagnostiseras i de flesta fall med hjälp av mikroskop. Cancer i lunga kan vara svårdiagnostiserad då man ofta har tillgång till begränsad mängd vävnad från provtagning från tumören, och immunhistokemiskaDiagnostics of cancer concerning type and origin is, together with cancer stage and some specific tumor characteristics, the most important factors for treatment selection. Most cancers are diagnosed using a microscope. Pulmonary cancers may be tricky to diagnose as there is often limited tissue to examine from the tumor sampling, and immunohistochemical analyses are often necessary for subtyping
The purpose of this thesis was to explore deep learning methods of segmentation, classification and tracking of objects in LiDAR data. To do this a complete pipeline was developed, consisting of background filtering, clustering, tracking, labeling and visualization. The objects that were focused on were pedestrians, cyclists, cars and animals, in different environments. Background segmentation and

Artros är vår vanligaste ledsjukdom och kännetecknas av att brosket i leden successivt bryts ned i kombination med funktionsnedsättning samt rörelse- och belastningssmärta. Processen är långsam; brosknedbrytning pågår under flera år utan påtagliga symptom. Först långt fram i processen syns röntgenologiska förändringar. Enligt evidensbaserade riktlinjer är den primära behandlingen fysioterapi och iOsteoarthritis (OA) is the most frequently occurring joint disease and is characterized by a gradual degradation of joint cartilage as well as pain and loss of function. The disease progression is slow; degradation of cartilage occurs for several years prior to symptoms. Radiological changes occur much later in the process. According to current evidence-based guidelines, the primary treatment is p

Näthinnan (Retina) är en del av det centrala nervsystemet och består till största delen av specialiserade nervceller. Vid degenerativ näthinnesjukdom, t.ex retinitis pigmentosa, åldersrelaterad makuladegeneration, näthinneavlossning och glaukom förstörs nervceller vilket resulterar i idag icke behandlingsbar synnedsättning. Traditionellt undersöks ofta sjukdom och behandling inom CNS experimentellTraditionally, experimental neuronal research is conducted on single cells after disruption of the tissue. A more pertinent approach to the complex CNS is to consider cells, extracellular matrix, and cell junctions as a tissue continuum through which mechanical and biochemical information is bidirectionally communicated. Our research is focused on retinal cell interactions in health and disease, a
Avdelningen består av etnologi (se ämnesbeskrivning nedan)The research in ethnology has two primary orientations, both of which work with historical as well as contemporary perspectives. The first orientation focuses on practices of everyday life – that is to say the study of what people do in their daily lives and how such activities constitute the grounds for different cultural patters of thought and societal values. Research in this area of study prob
