Abstract in UndeterminedAn experiment is described where the participants were presented with pictures of four different objects and were also allowed to handle the objects while their brain activity was recorded by means of EEG. The objects were also evaluated by means of semantic scales. When the objects were visually displayed significant effects appeared in the posterior part of the brain, but

A new approach to low-complexity channel estimation in orthogonal-frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is proposed. A low-rank approximation is applied to a linear minimum mean-squared error (LMMSE) estimator that uses the frequency correlation of the channel. By using the singular value decomposition (SVD) an optimal low-rank estimator is derived, where performance is essentially preser

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Neonatal intensivvård är under ständig utveckling, vilket medfört att allt mindre barn överlever efter att ha fötts prematurt. Ett tydligt mått på detta är att gränsen för livsduglighet (den gestationsålder då individen beräknas ha 50% chans att överleva) har skjutits bakåt till att under de senaste två decennierna ligga runt graviditetsvecka 24. Barn som föds Although advances in neonatal care have resulted in increased survival rates among extremely preterm infants (born < 28 gestational weeks), they still face substantial morbidity risks during the neonatal period. The question of possible later outcomes is a key issue faced by health care professionals working with these infants. Objectives The objective of the present thesis was to explore develo

Investigation of travel agent (~System) Task-related utterances reveals intonational contours where focal accents occur on information given previously in the dialogue by the client (~User). The accentuation can be related to the interactive nature of dialogue where the information holder picks up on a Task-related topic introduced by the client and comments on it in an engaged manner.

A new novel single input current-sensing differential logic (SCSDL) is proposed. The SCSDL is flexible-in particular high input Boolean logic functions can be implemented with low complexity, area consumption, time delay, and power consumption. The first part of the area saving comes from the remarkable reduction of wiring; the other part comes from the very low number of transistors needed to imp

Organisatoriska former av en formaliserad, administrativ karaktär ter sig nästan ofrånkomliga i dagens ”projektvärld” (Sahlin, 1996, Sulkunen, 2007). Referensgrupper och arbetsgrupper utgör i allmänhet, en överbyggnad. Till denna hör också krav på dokumentation och planer: en vid variation av byråkratiska formulär. I det här utvärderade projektet, en vårdkedja inom ungdomsvården, karakteriserades

By means of a sensitive myograph and alpha-receptor subtype selective agonists and antagonists the postjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors were characterized in small omental and groin arteries and veins and in long saphenous veins obtained from 52 "healthy" adults during surgery. These vessels were found to have a mixed population of contraction mediating postjunctional alpha-receptors with a predomin

Yet, as indicated, the most significant corollary of the diplomatic crisis in Iranian-British ties concerns the cataclysmic impact it can exert upon the likelihood of military confrontation with Iran. It is a gross miscalculation on the part of Iranian politicians and policy-makers to suppose that occupation of the UK embassy or reduction of relations with the country will “teach it a good lesson,

It is shown that the commonly used approximation for the no-loss angle-resolved photocurrent from solids in general violates the optical selection rules if the final-state inverse low-energy electron diffraction orbital is taken to be damped. The violations occur in the velocity formula, which is inconsistent with the corresponding and commonly used acceleration formula in which the matrix element
