This paper describes the implementation and evaluation of a generic component to extract temporal information from texts in Swedish. It proceeds in two steps. The first step extracts time expressions and events, and generates a feature vector for each element it identifies. Using the vectors, the second step determines the temporal relations, possibly none, between the extracted events and orders

Recent research has identified the grasslands of the Sahel as a potential carbon sink, but regional carbon stock accounting in such biomes is undermined by the poorly recognized role they play in the carbon cycle as well as lack of data. In this paper, we demonstrate the feasibility of coupling the satellite data-driven light use efficiency model (Lund University Light Use Efficiency Model - LULUE

Studies of nanoconfined circular DNA are of interest both from a biological as well as a fundamental polymer physics perspective. We here present the use of nanofluidic channels as a tool for comparing statics and dynamics of the linear and circular configuration of the same DNA molecule.

To the breast-fed infant, human milk is more than a source of nutrients; it furnishes a wide array of molecules that restrict microbes, such as antibodies, bactericidins, and inhibitors of bacterial adherence. However, it has rarely been considered that human milk may also contain substances bioactive toward host cells. While investigating the effect of human milk on bacterial adherence to a human

The Brazilian National Synchrotron Light Laboratory, LNLS, operates a synchrotron light source consisting of a 1.37 GeV electron storage ring and a 120 MeV injector. A summary of the commissioning and operation performance of the vacuum system for the linear accelerator (LINAC), transport line, RF system and storage ring is presented. The performance of the subsystems is described including the ph

This book emerged from an initiative to take the scholarly discussion on extraterritorial human rights a step further. The result is the first publication in the field that takes a point of departure in the standard legal building blocks of obligation, jurisdiction, causation, attribution and remedies, and it does so in the context of largely under-examined economic, social and cultural rights. Th

Beyond Westphalia Human rights are often framed within a territorial perspective. The phrase can easily conjure up images of citizens struggling for their rights with their own governments rather than with distant foreign governments. The idea of human rights gained prominence in the wake of the establishment of a Westphalian world order of 1648, with territorially distinct States exercising sover

For the first time, an IP created in China has become a global consumer craze. And it happened entirely without central planning.

Conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) are potent antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that integrate signals from their environment allowing them to direct situation-adapted immunity. Thereby they harbor great potential for being targeted in vaccination, autoimmunity, and cancer. Here, we use fate mapping, functional analyses, and comparative cross-species transcriptomics to show that RORγt+ DCs are a co

Self-adaptive applications are capable of changing their behavior thousands of times per second to autonomically find a way to accomplish given goals despite working in an unpredictable environment whose conditions can vary continuously. In this work we propose an evolvable system that runs self-adaptive applications on top of a heterogeneous system consisting of a general purpose processor and a

A new method has been proposed to study the low energy resonances of 8Li(alpha,n)11B at Ecm ≅ 0.5 MeV using dE-E Monolithic Silicon Telescopes (MSTs). Each telescope consists of five ultra-thin ∼1 µm (dE) silicon detector pads on a ∼500 µm (E) silicon detector. Both preliminary experiments and simulations show promising results for identifying the reaction cross-section at the low energy. To assur

Det föreliggande arbetets övergripande syfte var att undersöka hur grammatiken beskrivs i läromedel i dag och vilka konsekvenser detta kan tänkas få för lärare och elever i Svenska 1 och Svenska 2 på gymnasiet. För att uppnå syftet delades arbetet upp i två separata metoder: Först utfördes en granskning av hur grammatiken beskrivs i olika läromedel, och sedan en intervjustudie där yrkesverksamma sThe present study’s overarching aim was to examine how grammar is described in textbooks today, and what consequences this might have for teachers and students in the courses Swedish 1 and Swedish 2, in upper-secondary education. To accomplish this, the study was divided into two separate methods: First, an examination of how grammar is described in different textbooks was conducted. After that, a

Entrepreneurial passion (EP) has been hailed as a facilitator of venture performance,entrepreneurial skills, and psychological wellbeing. Yet, the concept is underexplored in entrepreneurship research, specifically among entrepreneurship graduates. This thesis aims to understand the influence of EP on the career path of entrepreneurship graduates by studying eight recent graduates from two Scandin

Early reperfusion in the setting of an ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is of utmost importance. However, the effects of early versus late reperfusion in this patient group undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have so far been inconsistent in previous studies. The purpose of this study was to evaluate in a nationwide cohort the effects of delay from first medical c

Wing length is a key character for essential behaviours related to bird flight such as migration and foraging. In the present study, we initiate the search for the genes underlying wing length in birds by studying a long-distance migrant, the great reed warbler (Acrocephalus arundinaceus). In this species wing length is an evolutionary interesting trait with pronounced latitudinal gradient and sex
