1. 11. Unveiling the Impact of ESG Ratings on Risk-Adjusted Returns : Evidence from European Companies

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

   Author : David Melin; Otta Alexander; [2023]
   Keywords : ESG; Sustainability; Risk-adjusted return; Risk factor; Factor model; Portfolio; Europe;

   Abstract : This study uses a sample of 600 companies from Europe to investigate the risk-adjusted returns of four portfolios with high and low ESG ratings between 2011 and 2021. Four asset pricing models and additional measures for risk and return are tested on different portfolio weights. READ MORE

3. 12. Morphological study of PS/PMMA-matrix on glass, related to vapour pressure, mass-fraction, and size

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

   Author : Gustav Larsson; [2023]
   Keywords : organic solar cells; polymer; morphology; film; AFM;

   Abstract : The objective of this study is to observe how changing amount or ratio between dried mixes of poly-methyl-methacrylate and poly-styrene change the surface appearance, and how the results might inform future design of Organic photovoltaic cells, whom are based on polymer mixtures and heavenly dependent on the arrangement of polymers. An atomic force microscope was used on glass surfaces coated in a poly-methyl-methacrylate/poly-styrene matrix and dried from either dichloromethane or ethyl-acetate to determine surface appearance.

5. 14. Estimating Photovoltaic capacity using customs data : Model development of the tool NJORD and photovoltaics' characterization and impact on the African continent

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

   Author : Albin Åbrink; [2023]
   Keywords : Photovoltaic; Trade analysis; Development Goals; Africa;

   Abstract : Photovoltaics (PV) is one of the fastest growing power sources in the world in the last twenty years, being the most installed power source in almost half of the world's countries in 2020. Despite this, precise tracking of installations of PV does not exist in most of the world's markets due to PVs unique scalability and modularity. READ MORE

6. 15. EMONAS : Evolutionary Multi-objective Neuron Architecture Search of Deep Neural Network

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Jiayi Feng; [2023]
   Keywords : DNN Deep Neural Network ; NAS Neural Architecture Search ; EA Evolutionary Algorithm ; Multi-Objective Optimization; Binary One Optimization; Embedded Systems; DNN Deep Neural Network ; NAS Neural Architecture Search ; EA Evolutionary Algorithm ; Multi-Objective Optimization; Binary One Optimization; Inbyggda system;

   Abstract : Customized Deep Neural Network (DNN) accelerators have been increasingly popular in various applications, from autonomous driving and natural language processing to healthcare and finance, etc. However, deploying them directly on embedded system peripherals within real-time operating systems (RTOS) is not easy due to the paradox of the complexity of DNNs and the simplicity of embedded system devices.
