  1. 1. Movement towards socioecological change: The case of Ecosomatics

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för globala studier

    Author : Wilma Lagerman; [2024-03-19]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Several scholars both within and outside the field of human ecology argue that the perceptual human-nature divide contributes profoundly to patterns of unsustainability and weak sustainability visible in the world today. Deliberately engaging in conscious bodily-felt contact with the natural environment is suggested to uncover appropriate, embodied angles to approaching ecology and the environmental crisis.

  2. 2. The association between obesity, low-grade inflammation, self-reported knee symptoms and radiographic knee osteoarthritis in individuals with knee pain : A longitudinal cohort study

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Alma Buer; [2024]
    Keywords : osteoarthritis knee pain; artros knä smärta;

    Abstract : Abstract  Background One of the earliest signs of knee osteoarthritis (OA) is knee pain which correlates with inflammation and disease severity. Knee OA affects 260 million worldwide, and is in similarity with obesity, characterized by ongoing low-grade inflammation. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Convention on the Rights of the Child in practice: Social workers’ experience and acting space when implementing the Convention within the City of Gothenburg

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för globala studier

    Author : Emelie Ekbrand; [2023-01-26]
    Keywords : Convention on the Rights of the Child; implementation; social workers; children’s rights; acting space;

    Abstract : The aim with this thesis is to examine how social workers, who work in short-term and long term residential housing activities within the City of Gothenburg and meet children in their work with adults, experience the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child in practice, and their perceived circumstances related to opportunities and obstacles regarding the implementation of CRC. As such, the research question that guided the aim are: How do social worker experience that CRC works in practice? What are the social workers own experience regarding interacting and caring communicating with the children they meet? How do social workers as street-level bureaucrats experience their own acting space when working with CRC in practice? The thesis gives new insight into how children´s rights are met at different levels within the City of Gothenburg, as most previous research has focussed on social secretaires experience of the implementation of the convention, looking at social workers experience can help to get an insight into how the convention are established at different levels.

  5. 5. Finding the QRS Complex in a Sampled ECG Signal Using AI Methods

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Jeanette Marie Victoria Skeppland Hole; [2023]
    Keywords : ECG; ECG-analysis; QRS detector; Artificial Intelligence; Machine Learning; Deep neural networks; Long short-term memory; Convolutional neural network; Multilayer perceptron; EKG; EKG-analys; QRS detektor; Artificiell intelligens; Maskininlärning; Djupa neurala nätverk; Long short-term memory; Convolutional neural network; Multilayer perceptron;

    Abstract : This study aimed to explore the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques in implementing a QRS detector forambulatory electrocardiography (ECG) monitoring devices. Three ML models, namely long short-term memory (LSTM), convolutional neural network (CNN), and multilayer perceptron (MLP), were compared and evaluated using the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database (MITDB) and the MIT-BIH noise stress test database (NSTDB).
