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

    Author : Oscar Palfelt; [2022]
    Keywords : Motion planning; Deep learning; Autonomous driving; Nonuniform sampling; Rörelseplanering; Djupinlärning; Autonom körning; Ojämn provtagning;

    Abstract : Motion planning consists of finding a feasible path of an object between an initial state and a goal state, and commonly constitutes a sub-system of a larger autonomous system. Motion planners that utilize sampling-based algorithms create an implicit representation of the search space via sampling said search space. READ MORE

  3. 2. Convergence of CO2 emissions in the Americas

    University essay from Jönköping University/IHH, Nationalekonomi

    Author : Mikael Arvidsson Martins; [2021]
    Keywords : Carbon Dioxide Emissions; Emission Intensity; Convergence; Club Convergence; The Americas;

    Abstract : Maintaining global warming to 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels is vital. Whether the convergence hypothesis holds for carbon dioxide emissions is important for policymakers facing this issue. This paper investigates the convergence behavior of carbon dioxide emissions for 39 countries in the Americas from 1960-2016. READ MORE

    Abstract : We present the notions of uniform distribution and discrepancy of sequences contained in the unit interval, as well as an important application of discrepancy in numerical integration by way of the quasi-Monte Carlo method. Some fundamental (and other interesting) results with regards to these notions are presented, along with some detalied and instructive examples and comparisons (some of which not often provided by the literature).
