1. 1. Diving Deep: Seabird foraging tactics and local prey field

   University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

   Author : Elin Andersson Sjöholm; [2024]
   Keywords : Common Guillemot; Uria aalge; Optimal Foraging theory; Hydroacoustic data; resource selection;

   Abstract : Foragers in patchy environments need to decide what patches to use and how to allocate their time between them. Optimal foraging theory describes these choices through the relationship between energy expenditure and energy gain. READ MORE

3. 2. Generative adversarial network for point cloud upsampling

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Edison Widell Delgado; [2024]
   Keywords : Point cloud upsampling; Generative adversarial network; GAN;

   Abstract : Point clouds are a widely used system for the collection and application of 3D data. But most timesthe data gathered is too scarce to reliably be used in any application. READ MORE

4. 3. Using GIS and satellite data to assess access of green area for children living in growing cities

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Rebecca Borg; [2024]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographical Information System; Urban green space; children; schools; Malmö; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Urban green space (UGS) refers to open spaces within an urban context that are filled with greenery and nature. These can range from very small vegetation to expansive park areas. The common denominator is that they have proven to be beneficial for human health and well-being. Access to green spaces is also important for children. READ MORE

5. 4. Despeckling Echocardiograms Using Generative Adversarial Networks

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

   Author : Falk DIppel; [2023-10-23]
   Keywords : Generative adversarial network; deep learning; echocardiography; speckle noise; denoising; segmentation;

   Abstract : Previous research had shown that generative adversarial networks (GANs) are capable of despeckling echocardiograms (echos) through image-to-image translation in real-time once trained. However, only limited information regarding the quality of denoised echos and explainability of useful GAN components is provided. READ MORE

6. 5. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Author : Amanda Hansson; [2023-08-07]
   Keywords : computational model; population dynamics; metapopulation dynamics; nutrient flow; simulation; spatially explicit; individual-based;

   Abstract : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.
