  1. 1. Evolutionary Properties of Neural Networks: Exploration of Robustness and Evolvability in the Genotype-Phenotype Map

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Daesung Cho; [2022]
    Keywords : robustness; evolvability; genotype-phenotype map; canalization; Bayesian inference; simulation-based inference; information theory; neural networks; pyloric rhythm; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Evolution is a fundamental and crucial part of life that hinges on two central properties: robustness and evolvability. Robustness is required to maintain essential traits despite mutations while evolvability produces novel traits that might prove beneficial in survival. READ MORE

  3. 2. Role of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 in survival of Artemia franciscana : development of a new experimental model for probiotic studies

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Tiziana Racca; [2020]
    Keywords : probiotics; Lactobacillus reuteri; Artemia franciscana;

    Abstract : The crustacean Artemia franciscana represents a potential experimental model for human studies. The aim of the project was to assess whether Artemia could be used as a model for investigation of probiotic properties. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of corrosion resistant coatings using natural biopolymer and pollen

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Alessandro Armani; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Corrosion is a mechanism that highly reduces the lifetime of metals in different environments, especially in water or moisture environment. The worldwide maintenance cost due to corrosion is estimated in billions of dollars per year, and actual solutions in terms of coating usually contains toxic or environmentally harmful species.

  5. 4. Humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) location in Southeast Alaska : modeling the influence of mesoscale krill (Euphausiacea) patch depth and size

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Christine Walder; [2018]
    Keywords : physical geography and ecosystem analysis; humpback whales; krill; patchiness; vertical distribution; Generalized Additive Models GAMs ; spatial modeling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Humpback whales ([i]Megaptera novaeangliae[/i]) require dense prey aggregations due to the high energetic cost of their feeding methods. Modeling studies have shown that when whales are on their feeding grounds, they are closely associated with high prey concentrations. READ MORE

  6. 5. Hoppkräftor (Copepoda) som föda till djur och människor

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Linnéa H Christenson; [2016]
    Keywords : copepoder; fodermedel; omnivorfoder; humankonsumption; insekter; sojaböna; näringsvärde; aminosyra; protein; omega 3;

    Abstract : Hoppkräftor (copepoda) används som föda till vattenlevande djur och har många användningsområden i naturen. De bidrar till miljönytta med sitt levnadssätt, födointag och näringsåtervinning. De är zooplankton som lever i sött, bräckt och salt vatten över hela jorden. READ MORE
