This thesis explores the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) to convert natural language questions into SQL (Structured Query Language) queries within the field of sports analytics, with a focus on a real-world use case for Spiideo, a provider of cloud-based video analysis tools. The study compares different system designs, including single-agent and multi-agent setups, various prompting strategie

Den här uppsatsen undersöker de konstitutionella begränsningarna som gäller för EU-rättens genomslag i svensk rätt med särskilt fokus på 10 kap. 6 § RF och svenska domstolars möjlighet att utöva konstitutionella kontroll av EU rätten. Frågan är i huvudsak outforskad i svensk rätt, men har utvecklats i flera andra EU-medlemsstater. Syftet är att undersöka hur en sådan kontroll rättsligt kan tolThis thesis examines the constitutional limitations governing the domestic effect of EU law in Sweden, with particular emphasis on Chapter 10, Section 6 of the Instrument of Government and the ability of Swedish courts to exercise constitutional review of EU law. While this issue has received little attention Swedish legal discourse, it has been more extensively developed in several other EU

In the face of climate change, environmental migration has become a pressing issue, particularly for countries like Mexico, which are highly vulnerable to climate-related risks and have a long-standing history of structural inequality. Although the environmental drivers of migration have been widely acknowledged, the institutional capacity to address the challenges that accompany them remains unde

This paper examines how the role of Systembolaget, Sweden’s state wine monopoly has evolved in relation to market dynamics, public health objectives, and consumer preferences. Using a combination of survey data and an analysis of retail statistics, the study examines how different sales channels – Systembolaget, online retailers, and farm sales – are perceived by consumers. This is done through th

Detta examensarbete introducerar ett nytt förslag på användning av nedlagda skolor, fabrikslokaler, vårdinstitutioner, och andra övergivna anläggningar som står tomma runt om på Sveriges landsbygd. Behovet av funktioner dessa byggnader en gång var ämnade för saknar idag efterfrågan och jag vill lyfta potentialen sådana platser kan ha för särskilda användningsområden, i jämförelse med att bygga nytThis thesis introduces a new proposal for the reuse of abandoned schools, industrial buildings, care institutions, and other vacant facilities scattered across rural Sweden. The functions these buildings once served are no longer in use, and I aim to highlight the potential these places may hold for specific new uses, as an alternative to constructing new buildings. With consideration of a current

The textile industry’s linear business paradigm fuels excessive resource extraction and generate vast amounts of waste. Despite the EU Circular Economy Action Plan and growing industry awareness of these environmental concerns, many firms struggle to implement transformative Circular Business Models (CBMs) that provide a sustainable countermodel. Underlying socio-technical dynamics further amplify

As cities increasingly turn to nature-based solutions (NBS) as panaceas for addressing climate challenges and other social, economic, and environmental issues, questions of urban governance and justice have become more prominent. While much of the existing literature on NBS justice assessments focuses on distributional aspects through quantitative methods, procedural justice remains underexplored,

Coherent Diffraction Imaging (CDI) is an imaging technique that allows getting a high contrast image from phase interactions within a sample. However, the field of X-ray CDI has been dealing with a common issue known as the phase problem. Upon interaction with the sample, the incoming photons get absorbed or scatter and therefore, the wavefield gets altered. It continues to propagate towards the d

This thesis examines how audiences engage with mediated intimacy in sports documentaries through the lens of Break Point, a Netflix series offering backstage access to elite tennis players. The study develops the concept of gossip-based engagement which is a hybrid participatory mode in which affective responses and cognitive speculation are structurally fused. In online discussions, particularly

Women’s representation in media has been a critical topic of research. In a nation where gender scripts have undergone radical shifts according to state policy and ideological shifts, the current moment where birth rate declines and policies changes abruptly, once again sounds the alarm. This thesis examines how the Chinese reality TV See you Again construct postfeminist sensibility through gender

This thesis explores the development of a digital twin for a real-life tunnel facility in Revinge, Skåne, using fire simulations and machine learning. The study aimed to identify preferred machine learning algorithms and compare fire simulation tools in terms of efficiency and performance. A literature review highlighted Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) networks as a suitable choice. Fire simulations

This thesis analyzes the construction and reproduction of ideal motherhood discourse on the Chinese social media platform Red Note, focusing specifically on the discursive strategies of mum bloggers, user interactions, and the platform's influence in this process. Employing Fairclough's three-dimensional critical discourse analysis framework, the thesis analyzes the textual, discursive, an

Biological diversity faces a global crisis with increasing extinction rates and the loss of variety within species and across ecosystems. Increasingly, large companies are committing to address their impacts on biodiversity, but research shows that corporate reporting remains inconsistent, shallow, and difficult to compare. While biodiversity-related disclosures have largely been driven by various

Nya byggnormer – smartare tunnlar? Cut-and-Cover-tunnlar är vanliga vid grund anläggningsnivå i svensk infrastruktur. Dessa betongkonstruktioner utsätts för konstant vattentryck, vilket ställer krav på sprickkontroll. Sprickor uppstår ofta på grund av tvångslaster, exempelvis från temperaturvariationer och krympning, när dessa deformationer hindras av omgivningen. För att begränsa sprickbildning dTunnel structures play an important role in Sweden’s infrastructure. At shallow depths, a common construction method is the so-called “Cut-and-Cover” tunnel, where the tunnel placement is excavated, cast in concrete on-site, and then backfilled. Such tunnels are typically subjected to constant water pressure, which yields high demands on crack control. Cracking in elongated concrete structures oft

The extreme volatility and pronounced non-stationarity of cryptocurrency prices challenge traditional time-series models and motivate the use of deep learning. This thesis addresses three focused research questions: (i) Do gated recurrent neural networks (GRNNs) produce more accurate one-day-ahead Bitcoin return predictions than feedforward neural networks and linear benchmarks? (ii) Can a GRNN ba

Making buildings more sustainable and energy efficient, increases the importance of interoperability of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Building Energy Modelling (BEM) in the design process. The increasing use of these software calls for finding more efficient ways to work between BIM and BEM. This paper explored different workflow methodologies between BIM and BEM software focused on tim

The global industrial sector is a highly polluting and greenhouse gas-emitting sector. As industries increasingly explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance operational efficiency and drive innovation, questions emerge regarding its alignment with sustainability objectives. While AI is often positioned as a key enabler of digital transformation, its sustainable integration into industrial ope

When discussing urban planning and design, the focus often shifts toward large, overcrowded cities that require continuous improvements to remain competitive on the global economic map. However, smaller cities, while not classified as major metropolises, also play a significant role in urban development. These cities accommodate thousands of residents and have maintained their stability over the y

While women comprise the majority of employees in Chinese Environmental NGOs (ENGOs), little is understood about how they navigate leadership within gendered and politically constrained organisational structures. The gap in understanding gendered dynamics in environmental organisations persists, particularly in non-Western contexts such as China. This study focuses on female leaders in Chinese ENG
