Learning by feeling: excursions into the affective landscape
Learning by doing has become a common phrase in the scholarship of teaching and learning as research continues to emphasize the benefits of active student engagement in higher education. Instead of passive vessels to be filled with information, students become the architects of their own education. While traditional ways of teaching focus on what students should learn, there is now more interest i
The effect of live attenuated influenza vaccine on pneumococcal colonisation densities among children aged 24–59 months in The Gambia: a phase 4, open label, randomised, controlled trial
Background Influenza and other respiratory viruses promote Streptococcus pneumoniae proliferation in the upper respiratory tract. We sought to investigate for what we believe is the first time, the effect of intranasal live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) on nasopharyngeal S pneumoniae density in a low-income to middle-income country population with high pneumococcal carriage rates. Methods I

Productivity, biodiversity trade-offs, and farm income in an agroforestry versus an arable system
The uptake of diversified farming systems is constrained by a scarcity of evidence regarding financial costs, benefits, and risks. Here, we evaluate the productivity and projected farm income of an agroforestry system, where apples are integrated with arable crops, by combining primary data with ecosystem service and cost-benefit models. Our ecosystem service assessments included: 1) weed and pest

Translating polygenic risk scores for clinical use by estimating the confidence bounds of risk prediction
A promise of genomics in precision medicine is to provide individualized genetic risk predictions. Polygenic risk scores (PRS), computed by aggregating effects from many genomic variants, have been developed as a useful tool in complex disease research. However, the application of PRS as a tool for predicting an individual's disease susceptibility in a clinical setting is challenging because PRS t

Disordered eating in a community sample of Swedish adolescent girls
Tidigare forskning har visat att störda ätbeteenden (disordered eating/DE) är vanligt bland ungdomar, särskilt bland tonårsflickor. DE definieras som olika beteenden (t.ex. kräkningar, restriktivt ätande) och negativa attityder till ätande/kroppsform/utseende/vikt. Avhandlingen hade flera syften. (1) Att validera en svensk version av frågeformuläret RiBED-8 (risk behaviour for eating disorders) soPrevious research has described that disordered eating (DE) is common in adolescents, especially in girls. DE is defined as maladaptive behaviours (e.g., vomiting) and negative attitudes toward eating and one’s body shape, appearance, and weight. The present thesis had several aims. First, to validate a Swedish version of a Danish 8-item screening inventory, Risk Behaviour for Eating Disorders/RiB
Realeasy: Real-Time capable Simulation to Reality Domain Adaptation
We address the problem of insufficient quality of robot simulators to produce precise sensor readings for joint positions, velocities and torques. Realistic simulations of sensor readings are particularly important for real time robot control laws and for data intensive Reinforcement Learning of robot movements in simulation. We systematically construct two architectures based on Long Short-Term M
FedApp: a Research Sandbox for Application Orchestration in Federated Clouds using OpenStack
Multi-cluster federation is envisioned to be the next-generation cloud infrastructure, where it will play a vital part in the realization of concepts such as edge and fog computing. Orchestrating applications in federated environments poses new challenges to well-known research problems in various fields, such as load-balancing, auto-scaling, resource allocation and service migration. However, as
Private ICT-Activities and Emotions at Work : A Swedish Diary Study
The boundaries between the work and non-work spheres have been challenged through the rapid development of information and communication technology (ICT). Individuals may easily engage in non-work (family and private) matters at work and during working hours. Prior research on emotions at work tends to understand all emotions at work as work related. By studying non-work matters managed through IC

Dynamic Management of Multiple Resources in Camera Surveillance Systems*
Distributed camera surveillance systems typically consist of multiple cameras that need to store some fraction of their video streams in a central storage node. The disk space of this node as well as the network between the cameras and this central node constitute shared resources. In the paper the disk space allocation as well as the network bandwidth reservation are solved using techniques norma

Fundamental relations for the velocity dispersion of stars in the Milky Way
We explore the fundamental relations governing the radial and vertical velocity dispersions of stars in the Milky Way, from combined studies of complementary surveys including GALAH, LAMOST, APOGEE, the NASA Kepler and K2 missions, and Gaia DR2. We find that different stellar samples, even though they target different tracer populations and employ a variety of age estimation techniques, follow the
