  1. 1. Riparian plant biodiversity and community composition of ditches and straightened streams : identifying key environmental drivers in a boreal forest setting

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Rasmus Staaf; [2024]
    Keywords : artificial waterways; riparian zone; novel ecosystems; ; forestry; ditch network maintenance; species richness; hill-diversity; drainage ditches; coarse woody debris; ditch cleaning; ecology;

    Abstract : Modified ecosystems are typically seen as degraded and having no ecological value. In many cases, the modification of the ecosystem was done more than 100 years ago and may have had time to recover and become a refugia for species that were once more common in the landscape.

  3. 2. Land cover classification using machine-learning techniques applied to fused multi-modal satellite imagery and time series data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Anastasia Sarelli; [2024]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Land Cover Classification; Landsat; Machine Learning; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Land cover classification is one of the most studied topics in the field of remote sensing, involving the use of data from satellite sensors to analyze and categorize different land surface types. There are numerous satellite products available, each offering different spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Detecting Fraudulent User Behaviour : A Study of User Behaviour and Machine Learning in Fraud Detection

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Analys och partiella differentialekvationer

    Author : Patrik Gerdelius; Sjönneby Hugo; [2024]
    Keywords : Fraud Detection; User Behaviour; Random Forest; PCA; SMOTE;

    Abstract : This study aims to create a Machine Learning model and investigate its performance of detecting fraudulent user behaviour on an e-commerce platform. The user data was analysed to identify and extract critical features distinguishing regular users from fraudulent users. READ MORE

  5. 4. Measuring the Utility of Synthetic Data : An Empirical Evaluation of Population Fidelity Measures as Indicators of Synthetic Data Utility in Classification Tasks

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för matematik och datavetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Alexander Florean; [2024]
    Keywords : Synthetic Data; Machine Learning; Population Fidelity Measures; Utility Metrics; Synthetic Data Quality Evaluation; Classification Algorithms; Utility Estimation; Data Privacy; Artificial Intelligence; Experiment Framework; Model Performance Assessment; Syntetisk Data; Maskininlärning; Population Fidelity Mätvärden; Användbarhetsmätvärden; Kvalitetsutvärdering av Syntetisk Data; Klassificeringsalgoritmer; Användbarhetsutvärdering; Dataintegritet; Artificiell Intelligens; AI; Experiment Ramverk; Utvärdering av Modellprestanda;

    Abstract : In the era of data-driven decision-making and innovation, synthetic data serves as a promising tool that bridges the need for vast datasets in machine learning (ML) and the imperative necessity of data privacy. By simulating real-world data while preserving privacy, synthetic data generators have become more prevalent instruments in AI and ML development. READ MORE

  6. 5. Analys av föda för vitryggig hackspett och rödlistade vedlevande skalbaggar : utvärdering av tre olika behandlingar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Emma Mattsson; Lena Ostermann; [2023]
    Keywords : Vitryggig hackspett; vedlevande skalbaggar; paraplyart; rödlista; biologisk mångfald; död ved; restaurering;

    Abstract : Den vitryggiga hackspetten har sedan 1950-talet blivit en sällsynt art i det svenska landskapet. Nedgången beror främst på det moderna skogsbruket där barrskog till stor del har ersatt blandbestånd och gammal lövskog. READ MORE
