1. 1. BALLOT STRUCTURE, DISTRICT MAGNITUDE AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY STRINGENCY. A Quantitative Study of OECD Countries

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

   Author : Thi Thu Le; [2024-01-18]
   Keywords : ballot structure; open-list proportional representation; environmental policy; personal vote; district magnitude;

   Abstract : The role of the electoral rules, and the ballot structure more specifically, in determining environmental policy outcomes has received minimal attention in the literature. This paper contributes to this gap by analyzing the environmental policy consequences in proportional representation (PR) systems with different ballot designs. READ MORE

4. 3. Measuring the Utility of Synthetic Data : An Empirical Evaluation of Population Fidelity Measures as Indicators of Synthetic Data Utility in Classification Tasks

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för matematik och datavetenskap (from 2013)

   Author : Alexander Florean; [2024]
   Keywords : Synthetic Data; Machine Learning; Population Fidelity Measures; Utility Metrics; Synthetic Data Quality Evaluation; Classification Algorithms; Utility Estimation; Data Privacy; Artificial Intelligence; Experiment Framework; Model Performance Assessment; Syntetisk Data; Maskininlärning; Population Fidelity Mätvärden; Användbarhetsmätvärden; Kvalitetsutvärdering av Syntetisk Data; Klassificeringsalgoritmer; Användbarhetsutvärdering; Dataintegritet; Artificiell Intelligens; AI; Experiment Ramverk; Utvärdering av Modellprestanda;

   Abstract : In the era of data-driven decision-making and innovation, synthetic data serves as a promising tool that bridges the need for vast datasets in machine learning (ML) and the imperative necessity of data privacy. By simulating real-world data while preserving privacy, synthetic data generators have become more prevalent instruments in AI and ML development. READ MORE

5. 4. Salt tolerant horticultural plants to save freshwater usage

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

   Author : Tsun-Ya Chuang; [2024]
   Keywords : climate change; freshwater scarcity; halophyte; salt tolerance; bonsai;

   Abstract : As freshwater becomes scarce worldwide due to climate change and population increases, there is an urgent need to develop innovative approaches to address the issue of reducing freshwater consumption. Selecting species with high ornamental value and salt tolerance for use as green hedges or bonsai in urban or coastal areas could be a strategic approach for promoting greening and maintaining water resource sustainability.

6. 5. Measuring copper abundances in the Galactic Bulge

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Nikolei Höglinger; [2024]
   Keywords : Copper; Galaxy: abundances; Galaxy: bulge; Chemical Evolution; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Context: The chemical evolution of Cu in the Galactic bulge have been studied in a few studies using red giant branch stars, but the ages of individual red giant stars are difficult to determine. In addition, the bulge has been a challenging region of the Milky Way galaxy to obtain high-resolution spectra of stars, except when observing through certain few small fields into the bulge that are known to have low extinction.
