The use of interactive visualization techniques in Digital Humanities research can be a useful addition when traditional automated machine learning techniques face difficulties, as is often the case with the exploration of large volumes of dynamic—and in many cases, noisy and conflicting—textual data from social media. Recently, the field of stance analysis has been moving from a predominantly bin

Politikens legitima parter bör ta avstånd från oetiska metoder, statuera goda exempel och redovisa en etik för digitalt kampanjande. Det kommer att främja valrörelsen, den öppna debatten och demokratin, skriver Jonas Andersson Schwarz, Stefan Larsson och Anders Mildner.

Multiple sclerosis is a neuroinflammatory degenerative disease, caused by activated immune cells infiltrating the CNS. The disease etiology involves both genetic and environmental factors. The mouse genetic locus, Eae27, linked to disease development in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model for multiple sclerosis, was studied in order to identify contributing disease susceptibi

In order to develop reliable communications links for high speed railway (HSR) systems, accurate models for the propagation channel are required. The radio channel properties in HSR scenarios are different from those in cellular scenarios not only due to the high velocity, but also due to the special construction elements and the type of surroundings along the train lines. This paper focuses on th

This paper studies the Front End of Eco-Innovation (FEEI), the initial phase of the eco-innovation process. Incorporating environmental concerns at the front-end of innovation is important, as product parameters are still flexible. This paper investigates the FEEI for 42 small and medium sized eco-innovators in the Netherlands by using a survey. The results show that SMEs embrace informal, systema

We present two new data structures for computing values of an n-variate polynomial P of degree at most d over a finite field of q elements. Assuming that d divides q-1, our first data structure relies on (d+1)n+2 tabulated values of P to produce the value of P at any of the qn points using O(nqd2) arithmetic operations in the finite field. Assuming that s divides d and d/s divides q-1, our second

the research investigates how students perceive new approaches within language teaching. The background to the project is that students enrolled in the MA program in Middle Eastern Studies had to learn Arabic quickly, to be able to do field work and operate within Arabic speaking contexts. But beyond exploring new ways for students to pick up Arabic at a fast pace, Barhoum and Avery believe that t

Cloud computing has emerged as an inexpensive and powerful computing paradigm, to the point that now even applications with hard deadlines are executed in the cloud. It may happen, due to unexpected events, that an application becomes popular and receives a lot of attention and client requests in a short period of time. Provisioning computing capacity for such applications is quite a difficult tas

Cohousing has caught the attention of activists, academics and decision-makers, and Danish experiences with cohousing as bofællesskaber are routinely highlighted as pioneering and successful. This article presents a mainly quantitative analysis of the development of Danish intergenerational cohousing and investigates socio-economic characteristics of residents in these communities. First, the arti

Purpose: Manufacturer specifications for the resolution of an additive manufacturing (AM) machine can be ten times smaller (more optimistic) than the actual size of manufacturable features. Existing methods used to establish a manufacturable design rule-set are conservative piecewise-constant approximations. This paper aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a first-order model for producing improve

The international standard ISO 22400 has defined a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to evaluate the performance of manufacturing operation. However, the defined KPIs seem to be inspired from the discrete production context, and hence do not automatically fit the process industry context. The process industry is defined as the industry in which the raw material undergoes conversion during a

The neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide is well established as a key player in the pathogenesis of migraine. Clinical studies show calcitonin gene-related peptide levels correlate with migraine attacks, and decreases in this neuropeptide can indicate antimigraine therapy effectiveness. Research has revealed a wide distribution of expression sites for calcitonin gene-related peptide in the

Robust fitting of geometric models is a core problem in computer vision. The most common approach is to use a hypothesize-and-test framework, such as RANSAC. In these frameworks the model is estimated from as few measurements as possible, which minimizes the risk of selecting corrupted measurements. These estimation problems are called minimal problems, and they can often be formulated as systems

Background: Overall survival for patients with small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (siNETs) is long, even with metastatic disease, making quality of life issues relevant. The impact of surgery on quality of life is not known. We investigated determinants of health-related quality of life in patients who had undergone surgery for a siNET. Methods: Patients operated for a siNET between 1998 and

An orientation insensitive antenna is proposed for the 2.4-GHz industrial, scientific, and medical band wireless capsule endoscopy system. To achieve the polarization diversity, three orthogonal currents are obtained by bending a dipole. Inversed T matching branch and meander lines are employed to gain better impendence matching and miniaturization. A normal dipole in capsule with single polarizat
