Collecting enough labeled images to train an artificial neural network (ANN) is a common struggle since the process is tedious, time consuming and expensive. CellaVision, a company that creates analyzers that automate the process of finding and pre-classifying abnormal blood cells using machine learning, runs into this problem regularly. When new generations of analyzers are being produced, the im

In Italy, all aborted fetuses are required to be buried. However, when thousands of fetuses graves were found displaying a cross with the name of the person who had aborted, the practice was contested. The aim of this study is to examine the justifications behind the mobilization of the pro-life and pro-choice movements in Italy around the practice of the burial of aborted fetuses. Through the ana

Uppsatsen avsåg att undersöka 1) vilka egenskaper respondenterna rapporterade som viktiga hos en idealpartner, 2) om det fanns skillnader i till vilken grad kvinnor och män matchade en idealpartners egenskaper med sina egna egenskaper och 3) hur viktigt det var för kvinnor respektive män att deras idealpartner delade liknande egenskaper. 211 deltagare (154 kvinnor, 56 män, 1 genderqueer) deltog i The thesis intended to investigate 1) which characteristics the respondents reported as important in an ideal partner, 2) whether there were differences in the extent to which women and men matched an ideal partner's characteristics with their own characteristics and 3) how important it was for women and men that their ideal partner shared similar characteristics. 211 participants (154 women,

There are many factors that are involved in fostering intrapreneurship in a company and knowledge management is one important process in achieving that. A previous study related to intrapreneurs’ knowledge management has proposed a framework that discusses knowledge management in various situations, focusing on exploitation, exploration, or in between, in the context of intrapreneurship. Building

Privatimport av alkohol utgör en bråkdel av alkoholkonsumtionen i Sverige. Uppsatsen lyfter svårigheten i att främja och underlätta privatimport då Systembolaget har ett monopol på att assistera kunder till privatimport. Förhållandet mellan detaljhandel, privatimport och tillhandagåendeförbudet utrönas för att sedan visa på oklarheter i lagen och presentera gråzoner. Uppsatsen undersöker ett svensPrivate imports of alcohol constitute a fraction of alcohol consumption in Sweden. The thesis highlights the difficulty in promoting and facilitating private imports as Systembolaget has a monopoly on assisting customers with private imports. The relationship between retail, private imports and the prohibition on access is examined. Ambiguities in the law and unexplored ground is to then point out

Amyloida fibriller är aggregat av självassocierande proteiner som tillsammans skapar ett tätpackat inre med hög ordningsgrad. Dessa fibriller är ofta förknippade med neurodegenerativa sjukdomar, t.ex. Alzheimers- och Parkinsons sjukdom. I dagsläget saknas botemedel för dessa sjukdomar och därav finns det intresse för att studera amyloida fibriller. Grundläggande forskning om exempelvis fibrillernaAmyloid fibrils are aggregates of self-assembled peptides and proteins that forms a highly ordered and densely packed core of β-strands stacking perpendicular to the length of the fibril. Amyloid fibrils of the protein α-synuclein (α-syn) are associated with Parkinson’s disease. This study aims at contributing to the physiochemical basis of α-synuclein aggregation and dissolution, mainly in terms

Nanoparticles have gained considerable attention in the last decades, especially in the medical field. The nanoparticles could enter our bodies from anywhere in the surrounding environment and interact with objects in our biological fluids. However, there is little knowledge about this process. The protein competes for the nanoparticle's surface area, forming “corona” made of different proteinNanoparticles are small particles that the human eye cannot detect. They are particles of matter that are found in the natural world and created as a consequence of human activity. For a particle to be classified as a nanoparticle, it should have a diameter between 1 and 100 nm, larger particles up to 500 nm could be also classified as nanoparticles. Their submicroscopic size allows them to have d

In Sweden there has been an increase in neuropsychiatric disabilities over the last few years.This has led to many discussions, both in science and politics as well as amongst regular people. But the most valid and knowledgeable source of information about life with a neuropsychiatric disability is the people living with it themselves. The aim of this paper is to research individuals' experien

The purpose of this research was to investigate the mediating role of managerial cognition in the adoption and innovation of business models triggered by emerging digital technologies. Firstly, we explored how managers cognitively conceptualize emerging digital technologies (i.e., Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Cloud Computing, Internet of Things and Big Data, and the Metaverse) as enriched

Although states have begun to regulate influencer activities in areas such as advertising and consumer protection, that is not the case in tax law. This research analyses various Tax Authority’s guidelines on the matter and concludes that the rules already in place in most jurisdictions are applied to influencers’ activities. This demonstrates that a tax system with solid foundations can adapt to

I dagsläget står textilindustrin i Sverige inför flera utmaningar relaterat till dess negativa miljöpåverkan och brist på cirkularitet. Ett identifierat ämne inom detta område är klyftan mellan e-handlare av kläder och second hand-organisationer eller andra mottagare av kläder. Klyftan skapar en affärsmöjlighet i form av en affärsmodell för en digital tjänst som kan stödja cirkularitet genom att kToday, the textile industry in Sweden faces several issues regarding its negative environmental impact and lack of circularity. One identified topic within this area is the gap between fashion e-retailers and second-hand organisations or other receivers of garments. The gap creates a business opportunity in terms of a business model for a digital service that can support circularity by connecting

Aktivitetsanalys av enzymet PARP16 och dess koppling till cancerterapi Cancer är ett ord som troligtvis berör på ett eller annat sätt. Vare sig om man drabbas själv eller inte, så påverkar det alla om det så bara är en närstående till en som blivit drabbad. Studier inom proteinkemin har länge varit av stor betydelse då proteiner spelar en nyckelroll i DNA reparation. En enzymfamilj som är av storResearch in cancer is an ongoing project which not only includes finding more efficient treatment therapies, but also achieving a greater knowledge of how proteins of interest are targeted by inhibitors. Furthermore, research in this field can give us greater knowledge about the development of cancer cells if they are modified. One enzymatic protein family, the PARPs, has been widely studied for d

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to understand how a privatization process affects a company’s institutional logic in the presence of path dependence mechanisms, and to delineate the implications this has on the firm’s value creation strategy. Theoretical Perspectives: This thesis builds upon general ownership theories from the perspective of institutional logics. To these perspectives, path

Patent law has been prevalent in climate change discussions, as a factor linking technology, Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and the climate crisis. The inventive step, its set threshold and the environmental benefits for the assessment of its current state, are one of the paths where patent law can act as a potential promoter of green technologies. This paper aims to asses how patent law can

Euroscepticism is an old, but nevertheless still dangerous, phenomena for the European Union and for further European integration. Now more than ever, in the wake of Brexit and other crises of the 2000th century, public Euroscepticism is on the rise throughout the European Union member states. Notably, it has been determined that the rise is particularly large within rural areas. The residents of

This thesis scrutinises the concept of the European Super League in light of EU competition law and aims to provide an answer to the question whether the rules on prior authorisation by FIFA and UEFA infringe Article 101 and/or Article 102 TFEU, and whether the European Super League itself infringes Article 101 TFEU. The outcome of this thesis is that both questions must be answered in the affirma

Patients under the jurisdiction of the Scania Region of Sweden have since 2014 had the ability to choose their care provider regarding opioid substitution treatment, OST. This ability to choose has come from the advancements of the New Public Management, NPM, within Swedish health care. The goal of which has been to increase the availability of OST, as well as to strengthen the patient's auton
