  1. 1. Weird Digitization: Alternative Strategies for Archival Materials

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kulturvetenskaper (KV)

    Author : Christa Shusko; [2024]
    Keywords : Digital Humanities; Digitization; Archival materials; Photography; Material culture.;

    Abstract : This thesis draws on the theory of new materialism to posit an alternative approach to cultural heritage digitization. Modifying the method of critical digitization and synthesizing it with the method of thick description for the study of damaged cultural heritage, this thesis proposes the method weird digitization which seeks to challenge traditional selection criteria for cultural heritage digitization as well as challenging practices of mass digitization.

  3. 2. Using NeRF- and Mesh-Based Methods to Improve Visualisation of Point Clouds

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Vilma Ylvén; Oscar Montelin; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : In recent years, the field of generating synthetic images from novel view points has seen some major improvements. Most importantly with the publication of Neural Radiance Fields allowing for extremely detailed and accurate 3D novel views. READ MORE

  4. 3. Using Synthetic Data For Object Detection on the edge in Hazardous Environments

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Faraz Azarnoush; Damil Sabotic; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to evaluate which aspects are important when generating synthetic data with the purpose of running on a lightweight object detection model on an edge device. The task we constructed was to detect Canisters and whether they feature a protective valve called a Cap or not (called a No-Cap). READ MORE

  5. 4. Dark Ecology: Obscurities Illuminated

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Nadja Gollbo; [2024]
    Keywords : dark ecology; object-oriented ontology; internal critique; political theory; speculative realism; ecological philosophy; environmental issues;

    Abstract : This study investigates “dark ecology” – an ecological theory formulated by Timothy Morton, based on an object-oriented ontology and claimed to offer a new perspective on how humans can and should coexist with other “objects” in the world in a better, less hostile way. Dark ecology is a critique of both an anthropocentric and a biocentric worldview, aiming to erase the dichotomy between human/nature and subject/object. READ MORE

  6. 5. Simulation-based discrimination of Crab pulsar models with XL-Calibur

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Dennis Åkerström; [2024]
    Keywords : Astroparticle Physics; Astrophysics; Detector Physics; Simulation; Theoretical Physics; Engineering Physics; Pulsar models; Crab pulsar; Astropartikelfysik; Astropartikelfysik; Detektorfysik; Simulering; Teoretisk Fysik; Teknisk Fysik; Pulsar modeller; Krabbpulsaren;

    Abstract : Polarisation of X-ray light is being investigated with polarimeters to extend the borders of what can be observed. Distant compact objects, such as pulsars, that are to small on the sky to be analysed with imaging can be investigated by analysing the polarisation of the emitted light. This can reveal physics previously hidden by their small nature. READ MORE
