Under de senaste åren har utvecklingen av artificiell intelligens frodats och med sig tagit en förbättrad träffsäkerhet i taligenkänning. Däremot, liksom med alla snabba teknologiska utvecklingar har den sina brister, i det här fallet bristen på dialektal träningsdata. Den här uppsatsen undersöker om AI har en ojämnt fördelad förståelse av regionalt språk, med fokus på försummandet av de sydsvenskThe recent surge in the development of artificial intelligence has greatly improved the accuracy of automatic speech recognition. However, as with all abrupt technical improvements, it will have its weaknesses, in this case the lack of dialectal training data. This thesis investigates if AI has an unevenly distributed understanding of regional speech, focusing on the disregard of southern Swedish

PURPOSE: To contribute to an in-depth understanding of how the concepts accessibility, usability, and universal design interact and can be harmonised to create conditions for participation in the 21st century.MATERIAL AND METHODS: Ideas, empirical research, and selected literature from health science, engineering, and design constituted the material for a scientifically grounded analysis.RESULTS:

A novel regularization method for shape optimization of contacting structures is proposed. The shape optimization avoids parameterizations via splines or the level set method by directly optimizing the nodes in the finite element mesh. In the past this approach was limited by numerical difficulties arising from mesh entanglement and serrated boundaries but recent advances in regularization techniq

Multimodal integration is currently being discussed as a way to challenge the dominance of automobility by providing attractive alternatives to private car ownership. Combining critical organisation studies with a mobilities perspective, this article maps actions taken towards integrated urban mobility in two Swedish cities over the course of a year and explores how these actions shape the roles a

Dwell time is crucial for railway operations, for example, 20% of the total travel time in a mass transit context in the Paris region. With this, it is also a source of delays due to its variability. One way to ensure the robustness of a timetable is to add margins as buffer time that can be consumed to absorb short delays. Much work has been done on run time margins, but dwell time margins receiv

Återbruk innebär att material och produkter återanvänds. Detta skiljer sig från återvinning genom att minimera ingrepp och bevara produkter innan de omvandlas till avfall. Återbruk i byggsektorn kan omfatta material som takpannor, skivor, betong, tegel, dörrar och fönster. För att möjliggöra återbruk finns metoder såsom att skydda material från påfrestningar, välja standardstorlekar, dokumentera mReuse involves reusing materials and products before they become waste. This differs from recycling by minimizing intervention and preserving products prior to their conversion into waste. Reuse in the building sector can include materials such as roof tiles, boards, concrete, bricks, doors, and windows. Enabling reuse involves methods such as protecting materials from damage, selecting standard s

Background: Previous studies on causative pathogens in peritonsillar abscesses have yielded varying results. However, Group A streptococci (GAS) and Fusobacterium necrophorum have been identified frequently. The aim of this study was to investigate pathogens in peritonsillar abscesses in patients tested for both ß-hemolytic streptococci and F. necrophorum, and to investigate associations between p

Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance is a significant global health concern, particularly in western Sub-Saharan Africa. This study describes causes of bloodstream infections and antimicrobial resistance at a tertiary hospital in The Gambia. Methods: This retrospective analysis included all blood cultures performed at the Edward Francis Small Teaching Hospital, Banjul, The Gambia, from September

Cantú syndrome involves fetal polyhydramniosis, congenital hypertrichosis, and macrosomia. Distinctive features include acromegaloid features with broad nasal bridge and macroglossia as well as cardiac abnormalities, including patent ductus arteriosus. We present a case in a male patient, who presented with cardiac abnormalities in childhood, but was diagnosed with the syndrome in adulthood after

We analyzed the structural and material properties of small interfering RNA (siRNA)-loaded lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (LPNs) containing ionizable lipidoid and poly(dl-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) using small-angle X-ray scattering, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, polarized light microscopy, the Langmuir monolayer methodology, differential scanning calorimetry, and attenuated

Too dangerous to forget – a semiotic and contextual study of the memorial Romanoparken – Sång om en plats This essay examines the memorial Romanoparken – Sång om en plats (2020), which embodies Roma memories. However, there are risks with memorials when they take the material form of a monument that they are seen as completed actions and the completion can lead to distancing oneself from the

In any country, land ownership and land records management are prime objectives of any land record management authority. These issues are of key importance in Pakistan for land individuals as well as for land record management authorities. Currently, land records and revenue maps are maintained by the land revenue officers manually and are available in outdated form. The Land revenue maps are made

Landscapes fill a fundamental function of the human experience. The variance of these landscapes however, are vast, and arguably, so could the human experience of them and the ways they are expressed linguistically be as well. Of the few studies that so far has been conducted on this, none has focused on North America as a whole in a quantitative manner. This study aims to explore what systems lan

To address the challenges of an ageing population, it is important to promote health by identifying factors for healthy ageing. The aim of this study was to investigate the bidirectional association between physical activity (PA) and sleep in healthy Japanese super-seniors over the age of 80. For approximately 1 year, 124 participants wore wearable devices and answered daily lifestyle questionnair

With regards to research animal models related to immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), there is an extensive literature of over 300 publications published since 1959. It appears that many of these models either confirm what has been found in human ITP or, in some instances, are the first to describe a phenomenon related to ITP that is still of relevance today in human medicine. These models will undoubt

While much has been learned about the basic immunology and clinical characteristics of immune thrombocytopenia, many important questions remain with regard to pathogenesis, disease progression, identification of novel therapeutic targets and approaches, and clinical trials that rationalize and optimize use of existing therapies. The answers to these questions are likely to impact our understanding

Syfte: Att belysa unga vuxnas upplevda kunskap om sexuell hälsa samt om deras syn på sexuell hälsa har påverkats av samhällets åtgärder som sexualundervisning i skolan, samtyckeslagen och #Metoo. Metod: Kvantitativ ansats med tvärsnittsdesign där data har samlats in med hjälp av en enkätundersökning som publicerades på Facebook. Resultat: Av respondenterna var 67% kvinnor och 33% män. Den informa

ObjectivesShort time to positivity (TTP) has been proposed as a prognostic indicator in bloodstream infection (BSI) but results have been conflicting. The aim of this study was to explore the association between TTP and disease severity, using non-linear models.MethodsThis population-based retrospective study included all blood cultures in southern Sweden, from 2021 through 2023. Using healthcare

A range of neuroradiological findings has been reported in patients with COVID-19, some mimicking cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). We present a case of a man in his 50s with severe COVID-19, who was Glasgow Coma Scale 3 and tetraparetic after sedation was ceased in the intensive care unit. Return of consciousness and motor activity was slow. An MRI 1 month after debut of symptoms demonstrated
