  1. 1. A spatially explicit model of segregation dynamics : Comparing the Schelling and the Sakoda model

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutet för analytisk sociologi, IAS

    Author : Philip Öberg; [2023]
    Keywords : residential segregation; agent-based modeling ABM ; social simulation; multi-dimensional measurement; multi-scale measurement;

    Abstract : The scientific consensus has for long been that residential segregation is best conceived of as a multidimensional phenomenon that can exist on several geographical scales (Massey & Denton, 1988; Lee et al., 2008; Reardon & O’Sullivan, 2004; Reardon et al., 2008). READ MORE

  2. 2. Multitask Convolutional Neural Network Emulators for Global Crop Models - Supervised Deep Learning in Large Hypercubes of Non-IID Data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Amanda Nilsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Multitask Learning; Convolutional Neural Network CNN ; Branched Neural Network; Dynamic Global Vegetation Models DGVM ; Automated Feature Extraction; Feature Importance; Supervised Machine Learning; Emulator; Surrogate Model; Response Surface Model; Approximation Model; Metamodeling; Model Composition; Regularization; Robustness; Hyperparameter Optimization; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to establish whether a neural network (NN) can be used for emulation of simulated global crop production - retrieved from the computationally demanding dynamic global vegetation model (DGVM) Lund-Potsdam-Jena General Ecosystem Simulator (LPJ-GUESS). It has been devoted to elaboration with various types of neural network architectures: Branched NNs capable of processing inputs of mixed data types; Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures able to perform automated temporal feature extraction of the given weather time series; simpler fully connected (FC) structures as well as Multitask NNs.

  3. 3. Social capital, environmental policy attitudes and the mediating role of climate change beliefs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Robin Saberi Nasseri; [2019]
    Keywords : social trust; generalized trust; social networks; civic participation; latent variable modeling; structural equation modeling;

    Abstract : In order to combat the potential threats of climate change, effective policy setting and implementation is crucial. A variable which has been shown to have significant explanatory power on the success of different public policy areas is social capital; a multidimensional concept encompassing social relationships and norms ability to mobilize and facilitate common goals.

  4. 4. Experiences in Swedish Healthcare : Modeling Patient Satisfaction with SEM for Patients with Good and Poor Health

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Agnes Lindvall; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Patient satisfaction is important for patients, and is an important aspect of a healthcare system. Patient satisfaction is a multidimensional concept consisting of patient experiences in different areas during the healthcare visit. READ MORE

  5. 5. Simulating High Detail Brush Painting on Mobile Devices : Using OpenGL, Data-Driven Modeling and GPU Computation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för datavetenskap och kommunikation (CSC)

    Author : Adrian Blanco Paananen; [2016]
    Keywords : OpenGL; GPU; GPU Computation; Data driven; Brush; Android; FastBrush; Android; Bontouch;

    Abstract : This report presents FastBrush, an advanced implementation for real time brush simulation, which achieves high detail with a large amount of bristles, and is lightweight enough to be implemented for mobile devices. The final result of this system has far higher detail than available consumer painting applications. READ MORE
