Rao-Blackwellized Out-of-Sequence Processing for Mixed Linear/Nonlinear State-Space Models

We investigate the out-of-sequence measurements particle filtering problem for a set of conditionally linear Gaussian state-space models, known as mixed linear/nonlinear state-space models. Two different algorithms are proposed, which both exploit the conditionally linear substructure. The first approach is based on storing only a subset of the particles and their weights, which implies low memory

Researching Collocations in Another Language - Multiple Interpretations

'Researching Collocations in Another Language' helps us understand more deeply why collocation knowledge and performance are one of the most fascinating (and at times frustrating) challenges that second language users face. This volume brings together 12 studies from Asia, Europe and North America, divided into four sets: (i) using learner corpora to identify patterns of L2 collocation use, (ii) d

The Exemplary Lives of Christian Heroes as an Historical Construct

In this text I examine how leading theologians within the Church of Sweden during the latter half of the nineteenth century elaborated on historical men as heroes in public speeches and in their works on the history of Christianity. The Christian hero as a prototype for contemporary Christians was emphasised within an evolving nationalistic discourse. The historical hero was of crucial importance

Det andra moderna: om Jürgen Habermas och den samhällsteoretiska diskursen om det moderna

Popular Abstract in Swedish Jürgen Habermas uppfattas idag ofta som dagens ledande samhällsteoretiker. Samtidigt är hans tänkande svårtillgängligt och ofta utsatt för missuppfattningar. De flesta försök att klargöra och diskutera hans kritiska teori har varit filosofiskt och idéhistoriskt inriktade. Denna avhandling framställer däremot hans kommunikativa handlingsteori genom att 'positionera' den This is a dissertation in social theoretical research. Its main subject is the critical social theory of the later Jürgen Habermas, that is, the social theory of Habermas which has broken with his earlier attempt to found social theory in an anthropology of knowledge and which instead - since the beginning of the seventies - takes its point of departure in the presuppositions of communicative acti

Future Research Agenda for Sustainable Lifestyles

In the SPREAD Sustainable Lifestyles 2050 European Social Platform project, a diverse group of societal stakeholders from business, research policy and civil society participated in the development of a vision for sustainable lifestyles in Europe by 2050. The Research Agenda is a key deliverable of the SPREAD Sustainable Lifestyles 2050 project.

The environmental impacts of electronics. Going beyond the walls of semiconductor fabs

The growing complexity of integrated circuits and increasing component density place higher requirements for raw material and clean room standards, which demand significant amounts of energy. In spite of these developments, semiconductor facilities managed to reduce their energy intensity measured per product unit. At the same time, the impact of increasing circuit integration on upstream life cyc

Memory Distortions Induced by Fluency : Behavioural and Electrophysiological Investigations

Popular Abstract in Swedish Att gifta sig eller att vara med om en olycka är emotionella händelser som skapar våra mest livfulla och detaljerade minnen. Sådana minnen av händelser i tid och rum kallas generellt episodiska minnen. De flesta människor minns till exempel nästan exakt var de var när de hörde talas om terrorattackerna i New York 2001. De flesta av oss har nog redan glömt vad som hände The investigation of memory distortions provides insights into how memory normally works. Adopting a cognitive neuroscience perspective, the present thesis aimed at investigating memory distortions and the neural correlates of processes contributing to successful control of memory interference in healthy participants. All studies employed variations of the modified continuous recognition task. In
