  1. 1. Securitized or Not Securitized? : A Case Study of Sweden's COVID-19 Strategy During the First Year of the Pandemic

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Max Anklev; [2024]
    Keywords : Securitization Theory; De securitization; Non-securitization; COVID-19; Sweden;

    Abstract : This thesis analyzes Sweden's unique and puzzling approach to the COVID-19 pandemic by using the securitization framework, exploring if Sweden's strategy during the pandemic's first year reflects securitization, (de)securitization, or non-securitization. It employs content analysis to evaluate Sweden's response, analyzing primary sources and academic literature, and uses a discourse table based on existing theoretical studies by Barry Buzan, Ole Waever, and Jaap de Wilde (1998) and Lene Hansen (2012) to assess indicators of securitization, (de)securitization or non-securitization.

  2. 2. Age-optimal Trajectory Planning for Multiple-UAVAssisted Data Collectio

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : The Chuong Chu; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), or drones, have become a primary tool for data collection due to their rapid and easy mobility, particularly in the current era with a high demand for real-time information updates. To serve this need, optimizing data freshness during information collection is necessary. READ MORE

  3. 3. Hunting the hunters - Evaluating a new method of Geographic Profiling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Max Pröckl; [2024]
    Keywords : rgeoprofile; crimestat; journey-to-crime; geographic profiling; qgis; geographical profiling; Örebromannen; Kim Rossmo; David Canter; Ned Levine.; Law and Political Science;

    Abstract : Geographic Profiling (GP) may be used when searching for an unknown offender by applying mathematical algorithms to geographical information. This thesis aimed to contribute to improvement of the efficiacy of GP’s produced by law enforcement by evaluating a the new Spaulding/Morris Centrographic (SMC)-method of GP that claims to counteract two of the main difficulties when constructing a GP in a real world investigation: 1.

  4. 4. Variational AutoEncoders and Differential Privacy : balancing data synthesis and privacy constraints

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

    Author : Baptiste Bremond; [2024]
    Keywords : TVAE; Differential privacy; Tabular data; Synthetic data; DP-SGD; TVAE; differentiell integritet; tabelldata; syntetiska data; DP-SGD;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the effectiveness of Tabular Variational Auto Encoders (TVAEs) in generating high-quality synthetic tabular data and assesses their compliance with differential privacy principles. The study shows that while TVAEs are better than VAEs at generating synthetic data that faithfully reproduces the distribution of real data as measured by the Synthetic Data Vault (SDV) metrics, the latter does not guarantee that the synthetic data is up to the task in practical industrial applications.

  5. 5. Simulation of flooding and flood mitigation in the town of Söderköping using HEC-RAS : An investigation of floods and mitigation measures

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Andreas Hoppe; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study examines the effects of flood management systems in an HEC-RAS simulation of recorded discharge in the town of Söderköping in Sweden by using easy-to-access and publicly available hydrological, landcover, and soil data. Two rivers and the precipitation of a chosen area are studied. READ MORE
