  1. 1. 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. 2. Shifting focus from yields to food supply : an evaluation of the ‘number of people fed per hectare’ indicator at farm and national level

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Ida Ekqvist; [2024]
    Keywords : Land use efficiency; Sustainability indicators; Agricultural productivity; Food production;

    Abstract : The challenge of feeding a growing global population while reducing the pressure on climate and ecosystems has gained much attention in research over the last decades. A crucial yet often overlooked aspect in research addressing this complex challenge is the efficiency of food production in meeting nutritional needs within the constraints of global cropland resources.

  5. 4. Evaluating aperture shape controller (ASC) in modulated radiation treatments

    University essay from

    Author : Vilma Andrén Cederholm; [2023-09-28]
    Keywords : Medical physics;

    Abstract : To decrease aperture complexity, the aperture shape controller (ASC) is a recently introduced function in Eclipse external beam planning (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, USA). ASC works within the photon optimizer, minimizing distances between adjacent leaf tips of the MLC. READ MORE

  6. 5. Spatio-temporal analysis of COVID-19 in Västra Götaland, Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaper

    Author : Natalia Andreeva; [2023-08-23]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Spatio-temporal analysis of COVID-19 data with the two different statistical approaches is the main objective of this thesis. The first classical approach, the Endemic-Epidemic framework (Held et al., 2005) is a class of multivariate time-series models for the incidence counts, obtained from the surveillance systems.
