  1. 21. An institutional weakness? – The participation of Chinese miners in Ghana’s artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) sector.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Enyam Joel Agbesinyale; [2023]
    Keywords : Chinese participation; ASGM; Institutional weakness; Rural transformation; Ghana; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the ongoing debate on the involvement of Chinese nationals in Ghana's artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) sector. Despite the Minerals and Mining Law, Act 703 (2006) prohibiting foreigners from engaging in ASGM, it is reported that about 50,000 Chinese nationals have migrated to rural Ghana to engage in illegal mining activities.

  2. 22. Messing With The Gap: On The Modality Gap Phenomenon In Multimodal Contrastive Representation Learning

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Industriell teknik

    Author : Mohammad Al-Jaff; [2023]
    Keywords : Multimodal machine learning; Representation learning; Self-supervised learning; contrastive learning; computer vision; computational biology; bioinformatics;

    Abstract : In machine learning, a sub-field of computer science, a two-tower architecture model is a specialised type of neural network model that encodes paired data from different modalities (like text and images, sound and video, or proteomics and gene expression profiles) into a shared latent representation space. However, when training these models using a specific contrastive loss function, known as the multimodalinfoNCE loss, seems to often lead to a unique geometric phenomenon known as the modality gap.

  3. 23. Implementation of Bolt Detection and Visual-Inertial Localization Algorithm for Tightening Tool on SoC FPGA

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

    Author : Muhammad Ihsan Al Hafiz; [2023]
    Keywords : Bolt detection; Visual-Inertial localization; System-on-Chip SoC ; Field-Programmable Gate Array FPGA ; Machine learning; Perspective-n-Points; Error-State Extended Kalman Filter ESEKF ; High-Level Synthesis HLS ; YOLO; Tightening tool; Bultdetektering; visuell-tröghetslokalisering; System-on-Chip SoC ; Field-Programmable Gate Array FPGA ; Machine Learning; Perspective-n-Points; Error-State Extended Kalman Filter ESEKF ; High-Level Synthesis HLS ; YOLO; åtdragningsverktyg;

    Abstract : With the emergence of Industry 4.0, there is a pronounced emphasis on the necessity for enhanced flexibility in assembly processes. In the domain of bolt-tightening, this transition is evident. Tools are now required to navigate a variety of bolts and unpredictable tightening methodologies. READ MORE

  4. 24. Effects of temperature on germination and juvenile growth in Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.)

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Gabriel von Rosen; [2022]
    Keywords : indoor farming; vertical farming; hydroponics; spinach; seed germination;

    Abstract : As the worlds urban population grows more and more every year, it becomes increasingly important that cities become more self-sufficient on food. Indoor vertical hydroponic farms offer a solution to this by placing the farm in an urban environment and growing plants in a controlled environment. READ MORE

  5. 25. Being young and navigating online cultures in an algorithmic media setting : A qualitative study of young-adults perception of mediated public shaming on TikTok

    University essay from Södertörns högskola/Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap

    Author : Evelina Ketola; [2022]
    Keywords : Public shaming; call-out culture; cancel culture; TikTok; media design; Algorithmic literacy; participatory democracy; civic engagement;

    Abstract : TikTok differs from how the media audience is used to seeing other social media platforms. When opening the app, the user does not see the friends you have decided to follow. Instead, you are faced with an algorithmically decided and never-ending feed of content personified individually for the specific user. READ MORE
