Auditory Attention Decoding (AAD) aims to determine the focus of a listener’s attention in environments with multiple overlapping speakers, a challenging situation for hearing impaired patients known as the Cocktail Party Problem. This thesis investigates AAD using Whisper, a transformer-based Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system that performs a graded transformation from speech to text while

Today’s security systems generate system logs that contain information about important events such as intrusion attempts and hardware failures. However, the large volume of data makes manual analysis impractical. Instead, this thesis proposes a method of using AI for classification. Building on previous research, a transformer model has been integrated with a hyperspherical loss function and a Lar

This thesis investigates the behaviour of an active dynamic filtering (ADF) system connected to an unknown electrical grid and suggests how to use control theory to reach desired requirements. The ADF system, which is based on a product by Comsys AB, consists of a PI controller and a low pass filter. The main part of this work was focused on developing methods for system identification by finding

This thesis will examine the World Bank's perspective of Korea during its development under Park Chung Hee, specifically regarding the three five-year plans (1962-1976) that were established during his rule. The 1960s and 70s were when Korea's growth kicked off as it started to industrialise. This thesis aims to examine the World Bank's perspective of these three five-year plans and to

Auditory attention detection is crucial for understanding speech in noisy environments, a challenge known as the "cocktail party problem." This project investigates the use of electroencephalography (EEG) to identify which speaker a listener attends to. EEG’s portability and real-time recording capabilities make it a promising tool for practical applications. We propose a novel neural n

In recent years, Swedish communication agencies have increasingly emphasized the value of insight-driven communication for strategic processes. Advocates argue that this methodology enhances creative potential, more accurate target audiences, and improves various organizational functions. Despite some attention in strategic communication research on topics such as data-driven approaches and the st

The purpose with the government proposal, En skärpt sexualbrottslagstiftning (prop. 2012/13:111), is to correct certain shortcomings in the Swedish rape law (6 kap 1 § 2 st BrB) and thereby reinforce and increase the protection of sexual integrity and the right of self-determination. The essay examines the regulation of rape cases, particulary when the victim reacts with passivity. The government

Lagen om avveckling av fideikommiss (1963:583) syftade till att avveckla fideikommissinstitutet i svensk rätt. Fideikommissen ansågs otidsenliga och passade inte in i ett modernt samhälle. En reform infördes som avvecklade fideikommissen och återförde fideikommissegendomen till vanliga regler om arv. Fideikommissen hade som syfte att hålla ihop egendom i en persons hand. Detta medförde att samlingThe act of liquidation of estate in tail (lagen om avveckling av fideikommiss (1963:583)) intended to end the institute of estate in tail in Swedish law. The estates in tail were considered outdated and did not belong in a modern society. The new act brought the property of the estate in tail back to the ordinary rules of heritance in Swedish law. The purposes of the estate in tail were to subsume

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are a recent addition to the archaeologist's arsenal of tools. They are capable of traveling in the air and reaching places that a human cannot. They are however not used in many places over the world. This thesis' purpose is to illuminate the positive and negative aspects of how UAVs can be used in archaeology, in order to generate interest in the utilizati

Varumärken har kommit att bli mycket värdefulla, ibland kan ett företags varumärke vara mer värt än dess fysiska tillgångar. Det finns idag ett antal regelverk som har betydelse för den svenska varumärkesrätten, bl.a. varumärkeslagen, varumärkesdirektivet och varumärkesförordningen. Dessa bestämmelser är i stort sett identiska vad gäller utformningen av vad som kan anses utgöra ett varumärke och dTrade Marks have come to be very valuable, and sometimes a company's brand can be more valuable than its physical assets. There are currently a number of regulations that have a bearing on the Swedish trademark law, including Trade Marks Act, the Trade Marks Directive and the CTM Regulation. These provisions are virtually identical in terms of what may constitute a trade mark, and these prescr

I denna uppsats undersöks brottsoffrets roll i straffprocessen. Syftet med uppsatsen är att klargöra brottsoffrets roll i straffprocessen och undersöka om det finns behov av att förändra brottsoffrets roll och ställning i processen ur ett upprättelse- och relationsvåldsperspektiv.

Den svenska sexualbrottslagstiftningen ska skydda från intrång i den kroppsliga integriteten och rättsskyddet ska inte vara beroende av brottsoffrets beteende eller motstånd. Rättsprocessen har dock inte alltid inneburit ett skydd från kränkande intrång i den personliga och sexuella integriteten för sexualbrottsoffer. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om rätten förhåller sig objektiv och oThe Swedish sex crime legislation shall protect against abuse of physical integrity and shall not be dependent on the victim's actions or resistance. Although the legal process hasn't always protected victims of sexual offenses from offensive abuse of individual and sexual integrity. The aim of this paper is to determine if the judicial system stands objective and impartial in a process wh

Yttrandefriheten och upphovsrätten är två grundlagsreglerade rättigheter i svensk rätt. Två rättigheter med syftet att skapa förutsättningar för ett fritt samhällsskick och en intellektuell utveckling. Trots rättigheternas tydliga motiv är det inte sällan som yttrandefriheten och upphovsrätten ställs inför en intressekonflikt. En konflikt som främst ska avgöras med stöd av lag men som under särskiFreedom of speech and copyright are two constitutional rights in Swedish law. Two rights with the aim to promote a free society and an intellectual development. Despite a clear definition of the purpose of the rights, it is not rare that freedom of speech and copyright is faced with a conflict of interest. A conflict that mainly will be resolved by law, but under certain circumstances, a more subj

Hur psykisk störning ska beaktas inom straffrätten utgör idag ett av de mest omdebatterade och svårlösta ämnena i svensk strafflagstiftning. I vår nuvarande lagstiftning kan alla, även psykiskt störda och barn, teoretiskt sett begå brott. Någon åtskillnad görs inte för de psykiskt störda lagöverträdarna i ansvarsledet utan särregleringen ligger uteslutande i påföljdsledet. Så har dock inte alltid How mental disorder should be considered in the criminal justice system is one of the most debated and intractable subjects in Swedish criminal law. Everyone, including mentally disturbed and children, is theoretically capable of committing a crime in our current legislation. No exceptions are made for the mentally disturbed offenders in questions of responsibility. Special regulation lies exclusi

Brottsoffret har sedan det introducerades som ett begrepp på 1970-talet allt mer kommit att dominera den politiska och akademiska debatten kring brott och straff. Mitt syfte med den här uppsatsen är att ur ett kritiskt perspektiv granska den svenska straffrätten ur ett brottsofferperspektiv. Vem är brottsoffret? Det finns ingen övergripande definition av vem brottsoffret är. En fråga som därför uThe term “crime victim” was introduced in the Swedish language in the 1970s. Since then it has more and more started to dominate the political and academic debate about crime and punishment. My aim with this essay is to from a critical point of view, review the Swedish criminal law from a crime victim-perspective. Who is the crime victim? There is no overall definition of who can qualify as a cri

The purpose of the essay is to investigate the circumstances under which a judge may have a conflict of interest, and how this issue should be solved when the solution is unclear. The essay focuses on the rule in Chapter 4, Section 14, note 10, and how it was applied in the pr

Den positiva föreningsfriheten är en lagfäst grundläggande fri- och rättighet i Sverige, Finland och Tyskland. Många personer omfattas utav detta då de är eller har varit medlemmar i olika föreningar, möjligen i en idrottsförening som liten eller i en fackförening som arbetstagare.
