This thesis describes how software for automated bidding on for example auction sites could function. The thesis is divided into three parts. The elements are composed of: • Collecting bid data from the website that the auction is held on and pass the raw data to the main application for further processing. • A graphical presentation of the auction data is shown divided into individual auctions in
Variations in laser properties and data acquisition times introduced inconsistencies in Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) data. The effect of data inconsistencies, on two GLAS height retrieval methods, from three study sites, are investigated and validated against airborne laser scanning (ALS) percentile heights, from three data sources: all/first return point clouds, and raster canopy heig
Deep metabarcoding offers an efficient and reproducible approach to biodiversity monitoring, but noisy data and incomplete reference databases challenge accurate diversity estimation and taxonomic annotation. Here, we introduce a novel algorithm, NEEAT, for removing spurious operational taxonomic units (OTUs) originating from nuclear-embedded mitochondrial DNA sequences (NUMTs) or sequencing error
One of the key elements in a polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) is the gas diffusion layer (GDL). The GDL offers mechanical support to the cell and provides the medium for diffusing the reactant gases from the flow plates to the electrolyte enabling the electrochemical reactions, and therefore the energy conversion. At the same time, it has the task of transporting the electrons from the active

Predicting click-through rates (CTR) is essential for optimizing the effectiveness of mobile advertising campaigns, where accurate prediction of user interactions can significantly enhance revenue generation and ad targeting strategies. This thesis investigates the efficacy of different predictive models, using a dataset composed of impressions and interactions with mobile ads. The models examined
Nima is a distressed neighbourhood located north of central Accra, the capital city of Ghana in West Africa. Nima is an extremely dense community, where land is very scarce. Single floor, clay built compound houses occupy the entire neighbourhood. Spatial planning is lacking, infrastructure is limited and overcrowding proposes a severe problem. Nima, a neighbourhood which is a direct result of rap

Aim: To evaluate (1) whether three migratory nightjar species (Family Caprimulgidae) adhere to Bergmann's rule, (2) whether environmental factors on the breeding or wintering grounds determine body size, and (3) which mechanistic hypotheses best explain Bergmannian patterns in body size. Location: North and South America; Europe and Africa. Taxon: Eastern whip-poor-will (Antrostomus vociferus), Co
Here, we use carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrous oxide (N2O) and radon (222Rn) data from the Saclay ICOS tall tower in France to estimate CO2, CH4 and CO fluxes within the station footprint from January 2017 to October 2024 and N2O fluxes from February 2019 to October 2024 using the Radon Tracer Method (RTM). We first performed a sensitivity study of this method appl
Background: Generating parasite genomes is challenging when little of the DNA in infected host tissue is from the parasite. We used selective whole genome amplification (SWGA) to generate genomic data from wildlife samples of the avian haemosporidian Haemoproteus majoris (lineage PARUS1) and its host, the blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus). Methods: We used SWGA to amplify the parasite DNA in nine avi
Den politiska ordningen i rymden har tidigare betraktats som en förlängning av den politiska ordningen på jorden. I den här avhandlingen hävdar jag istället att den framväxande politiska ordningen i rymden definierar internationella förhållanden på jorden. Nya insikter om den politiska dynamiken i rymden ger oss därför en bättre förståelse för den nuvarande världsordningen. Dessutom ger en fördjupPolitical order in outer space has so far been perceived as an extension of the terrestrial political order. In contrast, I argue that the political order emerging in outer space defines international relations on Earth. Therefore, with a refreshed understanding of the political dynamics of outer space, we will be better equipped to grasp the contemporary world order. Moreover, deeper knowledge ab
We have studied the geometry and singlet-triplet energy difference of two mono-nuclear Ni2+ models related to the active site in [NiFe] hydrogenase. Multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory based on a complete active-space wavefunction with an active space of 12 electrons in 12 orbitals, CASPT2(12,12), reproduces experimental bond lengths to within 1 pm. Calculated singlet-triplet ene
Popular Abstract in Swedish Under den senaste tiden har problematiken med klimatförändringarna debatterats livligt. För att kunna förutspå den framtida omfattningen av klimatförändringarna och vilka konsekvenser dessa kommer att ha är det ytterst relevant att känna till utbytet av växthusgaser mellan atmosfär och jordens alla ekosystem. Arktiska ekosystem är ytterst känsliga för den globala uppvärArctic ecosystems play a key role in the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle, but spa-tially explicit data on the C exchange is scarce in these remote areas. The global warming is especially dominant in the Arctic, and these areas are vul-nerable to climate change. It is therefore important to quantify and understand the processes affecting the C dynamics in these regions. In this thesis, the land-atmosp
With the emergence of the digital spaces, modern society has been witnessing the transformation of the public sphere, which is mostly altered by the new means of communication. Simultaneously, civic discussions that are taking place within the public sphere, are inevitably going through the same transformation and are now more and more often found in the digital spaces. This thesis is taking on th

We will apply perspectives from economics, the social sciences and the humanities to analyze ESS as a contemporary Big-Science facility focusing on processes of legitimat

BACKGROUND: Cystatin C is a low molecular weight cysteine proteinase inhibitor whose plasma or serum concentrations have been shown to be better correlated with glomerular filtration rate than serum creatinine concentrations. Routine assays for cystatin C are based on use of polyclonal antibodies and immunoturbidimetric and nephelometric designs. This study aimed to develop a double-monoclonal imm
Amid growing global uncertainty, including war, extreme weather events, and resource instability, self-sufficiency and resilience become crucial. Socio-ecological resilience refers to the capacity of communities to regenerate ecological systems while fostering social cohesion and adaptability. This study aims to establish mechanisms contributing to socio-ecological resilience in a rural setting. A
