Multi-Camera Multi-Person Tracking Using Reinforcement Learning

The problem of multi-object-tracking in a network of cameras is an interesting and non-trivial problem. Given videos from a number of cameras the goal of Multi-Camera Multi-Object Tracking (MCMOT) is to find the full visible trajectory of each pedestrian from the videos as the pedestrians move across cameras. Compared to monocular tracking the main difficulties lie in associating pedestrian detect

Nationer och aktörer världen över har satt upp klimatmål och strategier för att minska på sina utsläpp av växthusgaser i kampen för att uppnå 1,5 gradersmålet i tid. Norconsult som är ett konsultföretag verksamma inom samhällsplanering och samhällsbyggnad är ett av många företag som satt upp interna mål om utsläppsreduktion för att minska på verksamhetens egen klimatpåverkan. Norconsult hoppas på Global authorities and businesses around the world have come up with a joint climate goal, including strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in an effort to fight and reach the “1.5 degrees” goal in time. Norconsult, which is a consulting company that operates within social planning, and infrastructural design, is one of many modern companies that have initiated their own internal climate go

Study of the doubly charged Higgs boson single production using lepton parton distribution functions with the ATLAS detector

Searches for the doubly charged Higgs(H±±) aim to find evidence for models that could explain the origin of neutrino masses. Earlier searches at the LHC have used different production processes for the H±±, with the recent development of lepton parton distribution functions new leptonic production processes are able to be studied. In this thesis the single production process l± + l± → H±± has been

Oskyddade trafikanter i ombyggda korsningar - En undersökning om hur åtgärder som har vidtagits i korsningar har påverkat oskyddade trafikanter i Helsingborg

I denna rapport undersöks hur olika åtgärder påverkar trafiksituationen för oskyddade trafikanter i korsningar. Undersökningen görs främst utifrån de tre aspekterna trafiksäkerhet, framkomlighet och omgivande miljö. Arbetet omfattar sex korsningar i Helsingborg som har byggts om vid olika tidpunkter och där olika åtgärder har vidtagits. För att göra en bedömning av åtgärdernas påverkan på trafiksäThis report examines how different traffic improvement measures affect the traffic situation for vulnerable road users at intersections. The survey is conducted mainly based on the three categories of road safety, accessibility and the surroundings. The work investigates six intersections in Helsingborg that have been rebuilt at different times and where different measures have been taken. To eval

“Svårare för mig”: En tematisk analys om självomhändertagande hos personer med självskadebeteende

Nyligen har preliminär forskning funnit att personer med självskadebeteende och andra psykiatriska diagnoser verkar ha en lägre funktionsnivå avseende grundläggande självomhändertagande aktiviteter, jämfört med personer med psykiatriska diagnoser men utan självskadebeteende. Anledningarna till detta har dock inte studerats i tidigare forskning. En explorativ kvalitativ forskningsstudie med en kritRecently, preliminary research has suggested that people with deliberate self- harm (DSH) and other psychiatric disorders have a lower functioning regarding fundamental self-care activities, compared to people with psychiatric disorders but without DSH. However, the reasons for this have not been studied in previous research. An explorative qualitative research study with a critical realist approa

A Study of the Theology and Moral Structure of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings

Since its first publishing in 1954, The Lord of the Rings has been read by millions, and it has become the subject of many scholarly studies. However, one of its most famous characters, Gollum, has only been marginally examined. The aim of this essay is to counteract precisely that and examine how Gollum exists within, and in his own way embodies, the theological and moral system of The Lord of th

Classifying Hypernasality for Children with a Cleft Palate using a Convolutional Neural Network

In Sweden, about 150-200 children annually are born with some form of cleft lip and/or palate, making it the most common facial malformation in the country. Treatment often involves one or more surgeries and the speech development is followed up by a speech pathologist from the first year of life. One of the most common speech deviation for children with a cleft palate is hypernasality, which come

Modellering av ångsystem på pappersmassabruk

Följande rapport beskriver hur simuleringsverktyget Simscape, en produkt från företaget Mathworks, använts för att konstruera en modell av en del av ett pappersmassabruk. Modellen som byggts upp är tänkt att efterlikna det (ång)system som förser bruket med den ånga och elektricitet som är nödvändig för att driva alla processer i fabriken. Bruket har under en längre tid haft problem med att en alltThe following thesis describes the construction of a model, made in Simscape, of an existing steam cycle at a pulp mill located in the south of Sweden. The pulp mill has had problems with produced steam being wasted, and the purpose of the model was to trim the regulation of existing components to reduce this surplus of steam. The model was built and extended incrementally, starting with the steam

Blue Stragglers from Primordial Binary Evolution

Blue stragglers were first discovered as hotter and more luminous than the turnoff in the globular cluster M3. Their presence is typically explained by the interplay between stellar collisions and mass transfer in binary systems. In this thesis, I study blue stragglers produced from primordial binary evolution. This is done by both reproducing individual blue stragglers, to examine the different f

How to mainstream secondhand consumption - a quantitative case study of a company in the refurbishment products industry

Tänk om du levde i en värld med ett stabilt klimat där fler företag bedrev sin verksamhet utefter cirkulära affärsmodeller. Ett samhälle som anammat mer hållbara konsumtionsbeteenden, skapat fler arbetstillfällen, och äntligen slutat utarma Jordens naturresurser. Vore inte det en härlig tillvaro? Vill vi förverkliga drömmen bör vi ställa oss frågan vad som krävs för att vi ska komma dit. Mer speciThe shortage of Earth’s limited resources is becoming more evident and our planet’s climate system is under immense pressure. To combat these problems, more people investigate the concept of circularity. This study intended to find out what make consumers motivated to buy used items from a professional refurbisher, thereby replacing purchases of brand-new products, and also identifying barriers.

Combined Regularisation Techniques for Artificial Neural Networks

Artificial neural networks are prone to overfitting – the process of learning details specific to a particular training data set. Success in preventing overfitting through combining the L2 and dropout regularisation techniques has led to the combination’s recent popularity. However, with the introduction of each additional regularisation technique to an artificial neural network, there comes new h
