1. 1. Weird Digitization: Alternative Strategies for Archival Materials

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kulturvetenskaper (KV)

   Author : Christa Shusko; [2024]
   Keywords : Digital Humanities; Digitization; Archival materials; Photography; Material culture.;

   Abstract : This thesis draws on the theory of new materialism to posit an alternative approach to cultural heritage digitization. Modifying the method of critical digitization and synthesizing it with the method of thick description for the study of damaged cultural heritage, this thesis proposes the method weird digitization which seeks to challenge traditional selection criteria for cultural heritage digitization as well as challenging practices of mass digitization.

3. 2. The Impact of Deep Neural Network Pruning on the Hyperparameter Performance Space: An Empirical Study

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

   Author : Jonna Matthiesen; [2023-10-24]
   Keywords : Compression; Deep Learning; DNN; Hyperparameters; Optimization; Pruning; Hyperparameter Optimisation; Hyperparameter Tuning;

   Abstract : With the continued growth of deep learning models in terms of size and computational requirements, the need for efficient models for deployment on resource-constrained devices becomes crucial. Structured pruning has emerged as a proven method to speed up models and reduce computational requirements. READ MORE

4. 3. Risk-Averse Multi-Armed Bandit Problem with Multiple Plays

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

   Author : Siri Dahlgren; Nicholas Marriott; [2023-10-23]
   Keywords : MAB; Gittins; Markovian bandit; risk-aversion; policy iteration; multiple plays;

   Abstract : This study aims to construct an efficient heuristic, referred to as RA, for a riskaverse Markovian multi-armed bandit problem (MAB) with multiple plays. The RA incorporates risk-aversion and multiple plays by modifying the Gittins index strategy. READ MORE

5. 4. Image-driven simulation of brain tumors using a reaction-diffusion mathematical model

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för medicinsk teknik

   Author : Kristos Qiqi; [2023]
   Keywords : brain tumor; cancer; mathematical model; simulation; magnetic resonance images; hjärntumör; cancer; matematisk model; simulering; magnetresonanstomografi bilder;

   Abstract : Brain tumors pose a big challenge in the field of neuro-oncology. Gliomas are the largest subgroup. Magnetic resonance imaging is a non-invasive tool for detecting and characterizing these tumors. Mathematical models, such as the reaction-diffusion equation, can be used for understanding the intricate behavior of gliomas. READ MORE

6. 5. Digital Wars: #GuacamayaLeaks and the rise of hacktivism in technopolitics : A netnography to understand the complexity of digital communication processes.

   University essay from Jönköping University/HLK, Communication, Culture and Diversity (CCD); Jönköping University/HLK, Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap; Jönköping University/Sustainability Education Research (SER)

   Author : Viviana Levet; [2023]
   Keywords : hacktivism; technopolitics; netnography; information flows; gatekeeping; communication ecologies; digital media; social media; network society;

   Abstract : This master thesis explores the dynamics of information flows between the hacktivist group Guacamaya, media outlets and social media users. The study aims to understand the role of various social actors within the digital space such as media outlets, journalists, bots, and trolls, in shaping public opinion and the overall effectiveness of the group's communication activities.
