Denna studie avser studera de prioriteringar Svenska Filminstitutet framlägger i sitt handledningsmaterial för lärare och vad det betyder för filmens roll i svenskämnet och synen på film i skolan i helhet. Detta görs via två metoder där den första studerar ett stort urval av studiematerial och den andra gör närläsning på ett mindre urval. I den sistnämnde metoden studeras även handledningarnas möjThis study intends to find the priorities presented by the Swedish Film Institute in its guidance material for teachers and what these priorities say about the role of film education within Swedish schools in general and the subject of Swedish in particular. This is done via two methods, the first covers a large selection of study material, and the second does a close reading on a smaller selectio

This thesis proposes a machine-learning-supported pipeline which, put together, provides an estimate of roof surface area for solar panel installation. This pipeline is comprised of roof segmentation based on images and digital surface models and provides subsequent identification of key measurements such as roof length, roof width and roof angle. Obstacles belonging to a roof are also identified

Organisations increasingly adopt digital technologies in order to assist and improve the efficiency of their decision-making processes. Industries, including banking, need to increasingly adapt to the world of digitalization. The amount of data that has to be processed in the banking industry is increasing exponentially, and digital technology represents valuable solutions to processing this data

An increased understanding of the negative impacts of animal-based proteins, on both environment and health, has led to a rise in the demand for plant-based proteins. To meet the demands, conventional crops must be efficiently utilized. One possible crop is oat which is a good source of protein, fibre, and fat, but is currently mainly used for animal feed. To better utilize the proteins in oat, th

This thesis derives the explicit form of the elements of the (1/2,1/2) representation of the Lorentz group, by actually performing a direct product of the chiral (1/2,0)- and (0,1/2)-representations. The Lorentz transformations of fourvectors are thereafter recovered from this direct-product representation, allowing the derivation of a transformation matrix between the fourvector- and direct produ

Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how different types of fans experience personalization in sports marketing and to analyze how each Fan type can be motivated by understanding how their fan experience could be optimized further. Methodology: This study was a qualitative study. The study was carried out using an abductive approach where literature was combined with empi

In this thesis a number of methods for image classification are investigated. The main goal is to explore an approach based on functional data analysis and compare it with Neural Networks. The main idea is to view each image as a function and then capture the most important variation of each image class through Functional Principal Component Analysis. For comparing the methods the cifar10 dataset

After hundreds of years of urbanization a new trend is here. In Sweden, people are now leaving the big cities for a life in the countryside. How can urban designers work with rural areas and how do we do urban design in a rural way? This thesis investigates rural design in a Swedish village called Björkvik.

Lipase is one of the most useful enzymes in food industry, which can catalyze the hydrolysis and the synthesis of esters. However, the high cost due to the poor operation stability of lipase hinders the wide use of it. In present research, the stability of lipases in aqueous systems has been thoroughly studied, while research on lipases in non-aqueous systems is limited. In this work, the secondar

Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes are one of the most popular codes used in nowadays’ communication due to their high coding efficiency at low decoding complexity. With these characteristics, LDPC codes are suitable for high-speed information transmission systems. The widely used decoding algorithm for LDPC codes is Belief Propagation (BP) decoding with which the performance of LDPC codes can

Food Waste is a global issue concerning the environment, resources, social justice and economy. Despite being so pressing, around one-third of food produced is discarded worldwide. Meanwhile, food waste is incredibly complicated, requiring collaborations of all stakeholders and various innovations. Too Good To Go (TGTG) utilizes technology to bridge consumers and food business and save food waste

Stellar streams are made of stars that originate from globular clusters or dwarf satellite galaxies that have been disturbed by the gravitational pull from the galaxy they orbit. These stellar streams hold information about the history of the progenitor as well as information about the gravitational potential of the host galaxy. In this thesis we make use of the high resolution cosmological zoom s

Extremal problems in analysis have been studied for more than a hundred years. The so called Ahlfors function is the solution to one such problem. In this thesis, we shall study several properties of this function in a most general domain. We will consider the Ahlfors function in the context of analytic capacity, and also relate it to Riemann maps of simply connected domains onto the unit disk. Ou

Within recent years, the concept of Humanitarian Innovation (HI) has emerged and received growing attention within the humanitarian system as a critical means of adapting to growing complexities, uncertainties and resource scarcity. While perceived as a means of stimulating broader system changes and increasing effectiveness and efficiency of humanitarian assistance, current efforts of HI have met

Number theory is in a sense among the oldest disciplines of mathematics. A running theme is that many number theoretic problems are very easy to state and understand. However, actually solving these problems often requires much work or some very clever trick. An extreme case of this would be Fermat's last theorem: originally a conjecture by French lawyer Pierre de Fermat whose statement is und

The internet has revolutionised our world. The digital ecosphere is dominated for the most part by technology companies. The surveillance business model of these companies seeks to create predictions and inferences based on persons behaviour which can be used to shape, nudge and manipulate towards certain goals. This presents immense challenges to human rights, especially to the right to privacy.

Nepal has long been recognized as a multi-cultural country with a diverse geographical area. Despite its natural beauty, Nepal is plagued by a number of social issues. Violence against women has always been an issue, exacerbated by patriarchal cultures. Several development organisations are trying to alleviate the situation. The aim of this research is to decide how development organisations integ

Background The importance of services is increasing, and companies need well-developed service contracts to ensure the service providers perform at a satisfying level. In contracts, performance-dependent rewards (incentives) can be used to stimulate the agent to act desirably. This master thesis focuses on E.ON New Solutions B2C, who offers solar panel installations to residential customers. They
