The Sámi people are the only recognised Indigenous people in Europe. Historically, they have not only been oppressed and colonialised, but also not been as included in, or consulted on decision-making processes by the governments of the countries they live in. The European Union is seen as a trailblazer for human rights and equality, in addition to being a determined actor within the green energy

The aim of this study is to explore cultural managers' experiences of organizational culture in the hybrid setting from a symbolic interactionist perspective. It is a qualitative case study conducted within the interpretivist research tradition. We have applied an abductive research approach and collected data through fifteen semi-structured interviews at a single case organization. Our study

Leukemia is the most common type of cancer in children, with B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (B-ALL) being a common type in both children and adults. Different types of treatments are available, such as chemotherapy, stem cell treatment and immunotherapy. However, a recurring problem is relapses, with the survival rate after relapse being very low. In combating this issue new methods have been d

Classical music institutions are confronting declining attendance among younger and diverse audiences, fearing an aging visitor demographic. The LUDICH Project at Lund University, in collaboration with several industry partners, academic institutions, the Malmö Symphony Orchestra and their home concert hall of Malmö Live aims to address this challenge by investigating innovative digital solutions

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka de drivkrafter som motiverar människor till att välja att bo i bogemenskaper i Sverige samt att identifiera de ideal som speglas i deras upplevelser och val av boendeform. Studien baseras på tio semi-strukturerade intervjuer med boende i bogemenskaper och personer som arbetar med co-living i Sverige, samt en deltagande observation på en bogemenskap i Sveri

This study delves into the potential of contactless palmprints within large-scale biometric frameworks, focusing on improving candidate narrowing through an encoder-based approach. Utilizing deep neural networks and trained via semi-hard triplet learning, the research transforms palm images into distinctive feature vectors for precise identification and candidate selection. Comprehensive analysis

In this master’s thesis, it is explored in what directions a market leading company with an established product portfolio can expand. Thereafter a concept is developed as an example of a niche product. Firstly, a market screening is performed with regards to trends, competitor products and needs in different market segments. Moreover, the company’s strategy is taken into consideration with the s

Prefetching is a well known concept for CPUs but for GPUs it is fairly unexplored. The memory management of a GPU plays a crucial role in its performance, and cache prefetching has the potential to lower the overall latency. This thesis compares different types of prefetching methods for GPUs and remaking some CPU prefetchers to fit the GPU architecture. All these prefetchers were then put inside

Denna uppsats undersöker artificiell intelligens förmåga att klarspråksanpassa text. Syftet med undersökningen är att ta reda på om Chat GPT-4 kan användas för klarspråksanpassning, och om Chat GPT-4:s klarspråksanpassningar skiljer sig från mänskliga klarspråksanpassningar och i så fall hur. Materialet består av sex klarspråksanpassade versioner av en text från en svensk myndighet. Tre av textern

This thesis analyses the risk of nonstandard errors affecting bank prediction using machine learning. Nonstandard errors are defined as the type of errors that occur during the Evidence Generating Process (EGP), meaning that these occur as a consequence of decision-making by researchers, rather than from sampling. The aim is to analyze how different choices of methods for pre-processing and data e

Inhalable particulate matter concentrations have been found to reach concerning levels in underground subway stations around the world. Brake particles have been identified as a significant contributor to these elevated levels. However, there is still limited research into the effect of the braking behaviour of trains on the emissions of brake wear particles. The present thesis examines the influe

Bakgrund: Kabinpersonalen präglas av en mängd olika normer och regler, dessa utgörs av säkerhetskrav, hierarkier och professionella riktlinjer. Dessa strukturer styr kabinpersonalens arbete, vars huvudsakliga uppgift är att säkerställa passagerarnas säkerhet och komfort under flygningen. Denna yrkesgrupp står inför en unik utmaning med konstant exponering för passagerare och behovet av att hantera

To meet the future demands and growing challenges in operating heat-exchangers at temperatures greater than 600°C, it is crucial to understand the high-temperature oxidation performance of materials for their components. Namely, it is necessary to study oxidation kinetics and elemental composition of the oxide scale to understand how the materials behave and degrade in such extreme conditions. In

At a time when artificial intelligence is developing rapidly, this thesis explores the issue of copyright infringement of AI-generated artworks. This study aims to analyze the legal complexities brought about by the increasingly widespread application of artificial intelligence in the creation of original artworks, with a special focus on the protection of creators’ rights and intellectual propert

A study investigating methods of ultrasound imaging for detection and treatment of Hirschsprung's disease. Hirschsprung's disease is characterized by the absence of ganglia cells in the colon and rectum. The diagnosis today consists of x-ray and biopsies from the bowel wall. The affected part of the bowel needs to be surgically removed to allow normal bowel function. During the surgery bio

I en rapport från Brottsförebyggande rådet så framkommer skolan som en plats där många unga utsätts för brott. Idag har skolor ingen skyldighet att polisanmäla brott i skolmiljö, utan det är upp till varje rektor att avgöra om det förekommer fall där det anses vara lämpligt. Regeringen har 2024 presenterat ett förslag om att polisanmälningar bör bli obligatoriskt vid all brottslighet i skolan. Tid

Digital Deception and Inoculation: A Quantitative Study on Strategic Communica-tion Tactics Against AI-Generated Images and the Role of Bullshit Receptivity This thesis investigates the effectiveness of inoculation treatment using prebunking techniques to develop psychological defenses against believing syn-thetic images online. The study focuses on the influence of Bullshit Receptivity levels, s

Vid läskedryckproduktion kontrolleras kvalitén på läsken genom avgasning och aciditetsmätning. För att uppnå en tillförlitlig aciditetsmätning krävs det att all kolsyra är avlägsnad från läsken. Om det finns kolsyra kvar i läsken vid aciditetsmätningen påverkar den aciditetsresultatet till att bli missvisande. I dagsläget finns en väl fungerande metod för avgasning men som eventuellt är onödigt ti

In this thesis, I describe how Heads of Government can mobilise crises to foster unity among EU member states and strengthen the sense of a shared European identity. The thesis analyzed five statements by the Heads of Government in Bulgaria, Finland, Germany, Greece, and Luxembourg to gain a more profound understanding of how they strategically used the This is Europe debates to promote unity and
