Education is by the UN stated to be the foundation to creating sustainable development. Lately, there has been a tremendous increase in the use of information and communications technology (ICT) for educational purposes worldwide, but as many countries lag behind both in terms of uptake and usage of ICT, this limits their populations’ chances to participate. Given this, the aim of this thesis was
This study aimed to investigate how different psychological mechanisms are related to well-being. More specifically, the study investigated how psychological flexibility, psychological inflexibility, self-compassion and compassion for others were related to mental illness and life satisfaction. Data were collected through an online survey (N = 171) with measures of psychological flexibility, compa
Runtom i världen arbetar människorättsorganisationer för att fler ska åtnjuta sina mänskliga rättigheter. Att aktivitet resulterar i långsiktig förändring är av intresse dels för organisationen ifråga men även för finansiärer och målgrupper. Att mäta effekt av insatser har dock visat sig vara svårt. Mot bakgrund av det är syftet med uppsatsen att undersöka hur tre organisationer (Amnesty InternatiThroughout the world, human rights organizations are constantly working to ensure more and more people can utilize their inherent human rights. These global organizations, along with investors and target groups, strive for permanent results. However, measuring the impact of these organizations’ interventions has proven to be very difficult. Therefore, the purpose of this bachelor thesis is to inve
A map is a combinatorial presentation of map objects and labels providing users with sufficient and useful information. Text placement is the most time-consuming and cumbersome work in a map production process, and many methods have been proposed to automate this process. However, text placement evaluation lacks exploration, especially when artificial intelligence (AI) methods are experiencing pro
The general Z2-violating two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) is analysed as an explanation for the discrepancy between Standard Model predictions and experimental measurements of the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment ∆aµ, with the condition that it does not provide an electron electric dipole moment |eEDM| larger than experimental bounds. Several point studies of individual 2HDM parameter space poi
Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have become a dominating player for processing of sequential data such as speech and audio. The reason for this, is the high accuracy that can be achieved with the more complex variants, such as the gated recurrent unit (GRU). This makes them very attractive in speech recognition systems for digital assistance and voice control applications. However, a high power c
While perovskite solar cells have become increasingly more efficient and popular, electrical characterisation of the semiconductor properties of perovskites has been limited due to the instability of the material. In this work, multiple approaches for creating such electrical test structures from perovskites are discussed. The chemical processing limitations for perovskites are laid out and common
Thin-Film Transistor (TFT) technology refers to process and manufacture transistors, circuits, Integrated circuits (ICs) using thin-film organic or metal-oxide semiconductors on different substrates, such as flexible plastic foils and rigid glass substrates. TFT technology is attractive and used for applications requiring flexible, ultrathin ICs to enable seamless integration into devices. TFT t
Denna studie berör gästnöjdhet och återkoppling vilka är viktiga aspekter när man arbetar med kunder. Speciellt inom hotellindustrin är detta viktigt då bra service handlar om att känna sin gäst. Hotellen vill veta alla bekymmer eller funderingar som gästen har medan de är kvar på hotellet för att kunna kompensera innan de lämnar. För att möjliggöra detta behöver hotellen ha bättre kommunikation mThis study concerns guest satisfaction and feedback which are important aspects when working with customers. In the hotel industry this is especially important since good service is about knowing your guest. The hotels want to be aware of any concern while the guest is still at the hotel to be able to compensate before they leave. In order to do so, the hotels need a better communication with thei
In the last 30 years, a new mobile communications generation has been developed every 7 to 10 years. The last one that is currently under development is the Fifth Generation. This generation aims to fulfill a wide range of requirements for different use cases. To that end, a new radio access technology called New Radio (NR) has been developed. The main design principle behind NR is to allow enoug
Data augmentation is a process to create new artificial data by altering the available data set. It has by many been considered a key factor for increasing robustness and performance of image classification tasks using deep learning methods, such as the convolutional neural network. This report aims to investigate the effect of data augmentation for the segmentation of magnetic resonance (MR) imag
Some say that the fourth industrial revolution is here now that machines can communicate with each other. This combination of Internet of Things (IoT) with industrial machines has been labeled Industry 4.0. Alfa Laval, manufacturer of liquid separators, together with B&R, an industrial automation company, want to explore the possibilities with Industry 4.0 and especially how Augmented Reality
This thesis concerns the evaluation of cost functionals on H2 when designing optimal controllers using finite Youla parameterizations and convex optimization. We propose to compute inner products of stable, strictly proper systems via solving Sylvester equations. The properties of different state space realizations of Laguerre filters, when performing Ritz expansions of the optimal controller are
Background In the latest years, developments in technology has created new opportunities within the area of after-sales services. Examples of such developments are the Internet of Things and Big Data, which can be used e.g. for predictive maintenance. Combined, the developments imply that there is potential gain for an OEM in using the IoT, Big Data and a transformed business model in their a
Multiple modern methods of statistical feature extraction and machine learning are applied to classification of encoding and retrieval of episodic memories using electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings. Raw data, different time-frequency methods, and multiclass common spatial patterns are used for statistical feature extraction. For each type of feature extraction multiple machine learning algorithm
Title A Framework for Blockchain Technology Applications in Supply Chain Management Background Since the Bitcoin currency prices received huge increments, researchers and industries started to ask what makes this currency so unique, and how can we harness the technology behind it. This research is about exploring Blockchain Technology applications in the Supply Chain Management field. Different ca

In Chichigalpa, Nicaragua, an unusual amount of manual sugar cane workers suffer from Chronic Kidney Disease of undetermined causes (CKDu), a disease with very high fatality rate in poor commu- nities. Harsh working conditions is a contributing factor, and this thesis uses tool design to conceive constructive solutions to address tangible parts of a seemingly overwhelming problem.
Purpose/Background High accuracy treatment techniques such as stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) requires precise patient positioning prior to and during treatment. The Catalyst™ is an optical surface scanning (OSS) system that has been utilized for patient positioning and real time monitoring during radiotherapy. The company behind the system recently released a novel algorithm for calculating the i
