  1. 1. Potential and Limitations of the Sketch Map Tool in the International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Kimon Letzner; [2024]
    Keywords : Disaster risk reduction; Participatory action research; Community risk mapping; International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement; Colombia; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In disaster risk management, participatory mapping (PM) closes spatial data gaps in communities by integrating local risk knowledge. The thesis examined the potential and limitations of the Sketch Map Tool (SMT) as a PM tool for community-based disaster risk reduction (DRR) through an International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement case study.

  4. 3. AI-based image generation: The impact of fine-tuning on fake image detection

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Author : Nick Hagström; Anders Rydberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Fake image detection; LoRA; DreamBooth; Stable Diffusion; Image generation;

    Abstract : Machine learning-based image generation models such as Stable Diffusion are now capable of generating synthetic images that are difficult to distinguish from real images, which gives rise to a number of legal and ethical concerns. As a potential measure of mitigation, it is possible to train neural networks to detect the digital artifacts present in the images synthesized by many generative models. READ MORE

  5. 4. Independent validation of a system for real-time localization of the prostate during motion tracking radiotherapy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Klara Stefansson; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Intrafractional prostate motion during external beam radiotherapy of prostate tumors has been reported as a limiting factor in accurate treatment delivery. Technology for real-time image-guided radiotherapy has been introduced for tracking and for compensating prostate motion during treatment and could allow for reduced target margins. READ MORE

  6. 5. Temporary Halting of Wind Turbine Rotors toMitigate Effects on Birds

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Ola Hedberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Bird; mitigation; effect; wind farm; turbine; wind power; halting; collision; risk; birds; power; generation;

    Abstract : This study assesses the viability of temporarily halting wind turbine operations as amitigation measure to protect bird populations during migration periods. Conducted in thenorthern Baltic, it examines the migration patterns, timings, and altitudes of various birdspecies, aiming to identify the most critical times for implementing turbine stoppages.
